Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop. It’s the 2nd Tuesday of the month so that means Blog Hop Day!! If you are starting with me, be sure to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. If you’ve hopped over from Akiko’s blog, welcome to my blog and thank you for stopping by. The theme this month is “Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays”. We can interpret this however we want. Here’s my card for today.
I used the Stampin’ Up! Snowman Magic Bundle along with the Storybook Gnomes Designer Series Paper for my shaker card today. This was the 1st time I made a shaker card, and it won’t be the last. They are a lot of fun to make.
I started by adhering a panel of Storybook Gnomes DSP to a Mint Macaron card base. I cut a panel of Basic White cardstock using the snowflake frame die from the Snowman Dies. I cut a panel of White Glimmer Paper from the Red & White 6 X 6 Glimmer Paper using the Basic Borders Dies. I adhered the panel to the back of the snowflake frame using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered a Window Sheet to the back of the frame using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered Adhesive Foam Strips all around the frame. I placed Sparkle & Shine Sequins Assortment in the center of the card and place the frame over it.
On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the snowman image twice from the Stampin’ Up! Snowman Magic Photopolymer Stamp Set and the bunny image in Smoky Slate Ink. I stamped the snowman faces on the snowmen in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored the carrot using my Pale Papaya Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the branch arm images 4 times in Soft Suede Ink. I stamped the hat and scarf images in Fresh Freesia Ink. I stamped the top hat and bow tie images in Starry Sky Ink. I stamped the bird image in Cherry Cobbler Ink. I cut all the images out using the Snowman Dies. I cut the 2 trees from a panel of Shaded Spruce cardstock using the Snowman Dies and the 5 snowflakes from a panel of Silver Foil Paper. I adhered all the pieces together using Glue Dots and Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the pieces to the card front using Glue Dots, Multipurpose Liquid Glue and Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On a strip of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Snowman Magic stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink. I cut the ends on an angle using my Paper Snips and adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Snowman Magic stamp set in Versamark Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I sprinkled the sentiment with my Silver Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I cut the bottom of the panel using the Basic Borders Dies. I stamped the images from the Snowman Magic stamp set the same as I did of the card front on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Mint Macaron mat then to the inside of the Mint Macaron card base.
To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the images from the Snowman Magic stamp set the same as I did of the card front on the bottom of the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Storybook Gnomes DSP to the envelope flap.
