Making a simple and stunning holiday card
(read to the end for details about a fun sale at Picket Fence Studios!)
Hello everyone! I'm sharing how I created this cute holiday card with some fun Picket Fence Studios products!
For this card I started by ink blending on an A2 piece of Juniper cardstock by Concord and 9th. I used a couple Distress Inks to add ink blending on the cardstock and add more saturation of colour. I think I used Pine Needles and Lucky Clover for the ink blending and I just faded the blending out at the top so the colour of the cardstock could show through.
After the ink blending dried, I used the Christmas Tree Farm stencil and stencilled over the card panel with Arctic Fox Paper Glaze Luxe.
While the Paper Glaze was drying, I stamped and coloured one of the gnomes from the Cheerful Winter Gnomes stamp set. I stamped the image in Momento Tuxedo Black and coloured it with my Ohuhu alcohol markers using shades of green to go with the background. I also stamped out the words 'sending' and 'Joy' from the Peaceful Christmas Flowers stamp set to use as the sentiment on my card.
I die cut the image and sentiments out using the coordinating dies and then moved on to assembling my card.
I glued the stencilled card front down to my cardbase which was made of the same Juniper cardstock and then popped up the gnome and sentiments with some thin foam squares. To finish the card I added a few clusters of gems from the North Pole Gem Mix.
I hope you have enjoyed reading about how I created this card. Make sure to leave any questions you have down in the comments and I can answer them.
