Wishing You Peace

Greetings! You've got Kathi here today to share a card created for this week's Winter/Christmas theme with the Star Well Clear Polymer Stamp, the Three Dancing Fairies Clear Polymer Stamp Set, the Mini Pipin Clear Polymer Stamp, the Mini Holly Clear Polymer Stamp, and a sentiment from the Christmas Greetings Clear Polymer Stamp Set — all by by Lavinia Stamps.

Here it is!


Use Tuxedo Black Memento Ink by Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko to stamp the Star Well Clear Polymer Stamp by Lavinia Stamps twice — once onto a 4.25" x 5.5" panel of Bristol paper and once onto repositionable sticker paper.

Heat set the image stamped onto the Bristol paper panel and then color the well with Copic markers. 

Fussy-cut the sticker paper version and place it over its counterpart as a mask. Place the flattest mask from the Acetate Hills Stencil/Mask Set by Lavinia Stamps horizontally across the image panel at the base of the Star Well so that it's covering the bottom of the image panel. 

Lightly brush Della Blue Elements Premium Dye Ink by Lavinia Stamps over the acrylic mask and the masked Star Well. Remove the Acetate Hills Mask.

Position the Mini Pipin Clear Polymer Stamp by Lavinia Stamps facedown to the left towards the bottom of the image panel. Ink the stamp with Fallen Leaves VersaFine Clair Ink by Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko and stamp. 

Position the Three Dancing Fairies Clear Polymer Stamps by Lavinia Stamps above the Star Well as shown. Ink the stamps with Twilight VersaFine Clair Ink and stamp.

Heat set the image panel. 


Use light grey dye ink to add shadow below Mini Pipin and the Star Well and to add some shadow to random areas of the snowy ground. Remove the mask from the Star Well.

Use a white chalk pencil to add shading/detail to Mini Pipin and the Three Dancing Fairies.

Use a white paint marker to add dots of "snow" to the Star Well's roof, the top of the stone base, along the "ground", coming from the Three Dancing Fairies' hands, and randomly around the images. 

Use Bold Stardust Glittering Gelly Roll Gel Ink to add glittery dots to the snow.

Trim the image panel to 4" x 5.25". Use Green Oasis and Spruce VersaFine Clair Inks to stamp the Mini Holly Clear Polymer Stamp by Lavinia Stamps along the top and sides of the image panel. Use both inks to edge the image panel. Heat set the image panel. 

Use a white gel pen to add additional snowy dots to the entire image panel.

Use a red paint marker to color the Mini Holly's berries. Use a white gel pen to add highlights to the red holly berries. Use a Clear Glaze Dimensional Gel Pen to add dimension and shine to the holly berries. Let the gel ink dry, then continue to build layers of dimension and shine to the berries.

Pat an anti-static pouch over the bottom area of the image panel. Position the "Wishing You Peace" sentiment stamp from the Christmas Greetings Clear Polymer Stamp Set by Lavinia Stamps facedown as shown. Ink the stamp with Twilight VersaFine Clair Ink and stamp. Sprinkle Clear Gloss Wow! Embossing Powder onto the wet ink, dump the excess powder back into the container, and heat set the powder.

Create an A2 card from heavy white cardstock. Sponge or brush the outside .5" of the card with Green Oasis VersaFine Clair Ink. Edge the card with Spruce VersaFine Clair Ink. This will create a card that perfectly matches the holly border of the image panel. Heat set the card.

Finish the card by adhering the image panel to the green edged A2 card.
