Greetings! It's Tuesday so you've got Kathi here today to share a project with you.
Before I get to that, I wanted to remind you that Topflight Stamps is thrilled to be a sponsor of the 2025 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop. What’s a hop without prizes?!? The information telling you how you can enter to win a $25 gift card to the Topflight Stamps store will be at the end of today's post!
This week's theme is "Anything Goes" and I've opted to join the caffeinated fun by creating a humorous coffee-centric holiday card with the Enervy Unmounted Red Rubber Stamp by Katzelkraft, the Skullduggery Cling Mounted Stamp Set by Indigo Blu, the Snap Thoughts Die Set DI-90 by AALL and Create, and the Jolly Christmas 8x8 Patterned Paper Pad by Woodware/Creative Expressions.
Here it is!
Use Tuxedo Black Memento Ink by Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko to stamp Enervy twice — once onto white cardstock and once onto repositionable sticker paper. Use Copic markers to color Enervy. Fussy-cut the sticker paper version of him and place it atop his counterpart on the image panel as a mask.
Place the small wavy-edged rectangle die from the Snap Thoughts Die Set DI-90 by AALL and Create facedown on the image panel, so that the die is framing the masked Enervy. Secure the die with low-tack tape, then run the sandwich through the die-cut machine.
Flip the secured cutting die/die-cut panel to the reverse. Use low-tack tape to secure the die-cut to the back of the image image.
Flip the panel over again so that the masked image and the cutting die are facing upwards. Secure the cutting die in place with low-tack tape. Be sure that the tape is not obscuring the image panel.
Place a piece of low-tack tape horizontally just above Enervy's paws and tail end but with the die still showing. Brush or sponge light green ink over the cutting die, the masked image, and the low-tack tape onto the image panel die-cut.
Move the low-tack tape so that it's covering the bottom part of the die-cut and the inked area. Brush or sponge the same light green ink over the cutting die, the masked image, and the tape onto the image panel die-cut.
Place a snowflake stencil over the top part of the image panel and brush or sponge the same green ink over the stencil onto the image panel.
Remove the stencil, the die-cut, the tape, and the repositionable sticker paper mask. You should be left with a white border around the edge of the die-cut.
Brush or sponge the same light green ink onto a small piece of white cardstock and secure the inked panel to the base of a stamping platform. Use Nocturne VersaFine Clair Ink by Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko to stamp "Baa Humbug" and "Naughty/Nice" stamps from the Skullduggery Cling Mounted Stamp Set by Indigo Blu onto the inked cardstock. Trim the Naughty/Nice panel and use a sentiment cutting die to cut the "Baa Humbug" panel. Edge both sentiment pieces with the same green ink.
Choose a piece of patterned paper from the Jolly Christmas 8x8 Patterned Paper Pad by Woodware/Creative Expressions and cut it to 4.25" x 6" to create the background panel. Edge it with green dye ink.
Adhere the image panel die-cut to the patterned paper background panel. Adhere both sentiments as shown. Adhere the background panel to a white A6 card.
