    Red and Gold Snowflake Card : Unexpected but Fun

    Would you like to experiment with a design like this?

(Master Creator Bundles are excluded as they already have a 20% discount built in.)

    Let’s get Started:

    Card Base: 5.5 x 8.5, scored and folded at 4.25

    Card Face:  5.25 x 4

    White Vellum scraps for the snowflakes

    This card face had gold snowflakes applied with a Glimmer machine.   I wasn’t sure how to finish it, and then inspiration struck with this stencil.

    Card Face:

    • After applying a good coat of Pixie spray, I laid the card face down on my Grip Mat and positioned the stencil.  I applied red ink over all exposed areas to create a tone-on-tone effect.
    • I used a paper towel to remove red ink from the gold foiling (the foil won’t absorb the ink,  making this a quick and easy task).

    Other:

    • I selected 3 dies and used my Big Shot to create the snowflakes.
    • I looked through my sentiment binder and found one that suited the card perfectly.  

    I often create sentiments in advance against future need –  they come in handy during busy times (like Christmas!).  I also save sentiments that I create and then “change my mind”  –  which was the case here.

    Assembly

    • I glued the card face to the card base and added the vellum as shown.
    • I added a small iridescent pearl to the center of each snowflake.

    Final Thoughts:

    I love the tone-on-tone swirls on this card,  and the colour is unexpected for a snowflake card,  but pure fun.

(Master Creator Bundles are excluded as they already have a 20% discount built in.)

    Let’s get Started:

    Card Base: 5.5 x 8.5, scored and folded at 4.25

    Card Face: 5.25 x 4

    Card Face:

    I started this card by selecting a patterned paper for the card face that would work with the stencil.   

    • I laid it on my grip mat, positioned the stencil, and applied navy ink over all exposed areas.  I used a firm hand and applied lots of ink outside the oval, allowing some of the pattern to peek through the ink around the deer. (This detail works well with the fully exposed patterned paper where the stencil blocked the ink .)
    • I used a punch on each corner to create shape and interest.

    Other:

    • I stamped the ornaments using metallic silver ink,  and used a coordinating die to cut them out. Although they seem white in the picture, they are actually silver.
    • I looked through my sentiment binder and selected “merry, ” pre-cut from silver cardstock.

    Assembly

    • I centered and glued the card face onto the card base.
    • I glued the ornaments below the antlers and used a white gel pen to create the string.
    • I glued the “merry” in place, as shown.
    • I added a tiny red gem to the center of each ornament, and to each corner as well.

    Final Thoughts:

    I love the combination of this stencil with this paper –  they work so well together.  The ornaments hanging from the antlers provide a light-hearted, whimsical touch.

(Master Creator Bundles are excluded as they already have a 20% discount built in.)

    Let’s get Started:

    Card Base: 5.25 x 10.5, scored and folded at 5.25

    Green Border Layer: 5 x 5

    Red Border Layer: 4 5/8 x 4 5/8

    Card Face:  4.5 x 4.5

    Card Face:

    • I put the card face in my stamp positioner and stamped one of the gnomes using Memento black ink,
    •  I stamped the image again on masking paper and cut carefully around the edges.
    • Covering my first image with the cut-out, I repositioned the stamp and stamped again.  After removing the mask, I had the two gnomes,  one behind the other. I coloured these with alcohol markers.
    • I laid the card face on my grip mat and positioned the stencil.
    • I applied blue ink over the exposed areas, carefully avoiding the coloured images. I added pink towards the top around the edges,  and blended to create purple where the two colours met.
    • I put the card face back into the stamp positioner and added the tree with green ink.
    • I diluted white acrylic paint with water and added spatter to the card face, creating falling snow.

    Other:

    • I put the green border layer into an embossing folder and ran it through my Big Shot to add depth and texture.
    • I used a scrap of white cardstock for the red sentiment:  I cut this out with an oval punch,  and used a slightly larger oval to create a border layer for it.

    Assembly

    • I glued the green border layer to the card base, and the card face to the red border layer.  I then glued these two together, having centered all layers on all sides.
    • I glued the two ovals together,  and then added them to the upper right corner of the card face.
    • I added a clear acrylic star to the top of the tree.

    Final Thoughts:

    I wasn’t certain about this combination when I started,  but I love the fun, whimsical result.

    Card Face:

    • I placed the card face in the stamp positioner. I added the stamped image with Memento black ink, then coloured the Santas with alcohol markers.
    • I used a blending brush dedicated to light blue ink on the bottom of the panel,  using residual ink on the brush.  It’s hard to see in the picture,  but I used torn paper to add a bit of detail/shading to the ground.
    • I laid the card face on the grip mat and positioned the stencil.
    • I applied grey-green ink over all exposed areas with a light hand, carefully avoiding any overlap on the ground or on the Santas.
    • I used a shading brush to add blue-green ink to the bottom of each tree.
    • I used a punch to shape each corner.

    • I looked through my sentiment binder and selected one that worked for the image.

  • Elevate Your Card Design: a Fun & Fabulous Card

    Elevate Your Card Design: a Fun & Fabulous Card

    Would you like to experiment with a design like this?

(Master Creator Bundles are excluded as they already have a 20% discount built in.)

    Let’s get Started:

    Card Base: 5.5 x 8.5, scored and folded at 4.25

    Card Face:  5.5 x 4

    Card Face:

    • I laid the card face on a piece of scrap paper,  positioned the stencil and secured both with low-tack tape.
    • I masked off all areas above and below the first row of trees and then pressed my Versamark embossing pad firmly through the exposed areas in that row.
    • Setting the stencil aside, I sprinkled green sparkly embossing powder over the wet ink and set it with my heat gun.
    • I repeated this for the other two rows of trees.
    • Changing tactics slightly, I masked off the three rows of trees, pressed my ink pad through the remaining openings and sprinkled Marshmallow Fluff embossing powder over the wet ink after removing the stencil.  I set the embossing powder with my heat gun.

    This embossing powder puffs up slightly with heat, adding a fun, unexpected bit of texture to the card.

    • I used my embossing pen on each of the round snowflakes,  added holographic embossing powder and set it with my heat gun.

    Other:

    • I used a scrap of cream cardstock to create the “Holly Jolly” and a scrap of gold for the background layer.

    Assembly

    • I glued a second layer of cardstock (slightly smaller)  under the card face to give subtle separation,  and then centered these on the card base.
    • I glued the sentiment to its background, then centered it on the card face.
    • I added a small metallic gold pearl to the top of each Christmas tree,  and one to the top of the “J”.

    Final Thoughts:

    I was hoping the holographic embossing powder would make the snowflakes stand out from the other white embossing, but sadly, it didn’t.

    I brushed away random bits of green embossing powder before heat-setting each time, but I clearly missed some.  I was lazy and didn’t use my anti-static powder –  lesson learned!

    I also managed to get a bit of white embossing powder on one of the trees that had already been done,  and didn’t notice it before applying heat.  Sigh.

    I love using the expanding white embossing powder with this stencilled design; they work well together.

    Let’s get Started:

    Card Base: 5.5 x 8.5, scored and folded at 4.25

    Red Card Face:  5.25 x 4

    Card Face:

    • I laid the card face down on my grip mat and used a coordinating red ink to slightly darken the edges, leaving the center lighter.
    • After the ink had dried,  I positioned the stencil and masked off the openings for the stars.
    • I  pressed my Versamark embossing ink pad firmly through the openings for the tree.
    • I sprinkled light green (sparkly) embossing powder over the wet embossing ink and set it with my heat gun.
    • I repositioned the stencil and repeated the process to add the stars where I wanted them, masking off openings that were too close for comfort each time.
    • Using white acrylic,  I added spatter generously.
    • I used a punch to round the top-right and bottom-left corners.

    Other:

    • I looked through my Sentiment binder and pulled out this cutie,  cut previously and saved for just this purpose.

    Assembly

    • I glued the card face to the card base,  centering on all sides.
    • I added the sentiment as shown.

    Final Thoughts:

(Master Creator Bundles are excluded as they already have a 20% discount built in.)

    Let’s get Started:

    Card Base: 5.5 x 8.5, scored and folded at 4.25

    Holographic Border Layer: 5.5 x 4.25

    Card Face:  5.⅜ x 4 1/8

    Card Face:

    • I laid the card face on the grip match and positioned the stencil.
    • I used red ink across all exposed areas, applying more pressure on the outer edges of the card face, and allowing saturation to fade towards the center

    This stencil actually includes pumpkins and not christmas babbles,  so next I had to come up with a method to change the shape.

    • I started the transformation by coloring the pumpkin stems silver and then continuing on to trace each of the shapes with a silver gel pen but making  sure to go straight across on top, rather than dipping down  the way the stencil is created.
    • I liked the stems, but the silver outline did not show up well enough. So I retraced all the pumpkins with a black fine liner. – this defined the shape and I was satisfied.
    • I used the silver gel pen to add a bit of snow to the top of each ornament, which further disguised the original shape.
    • I used a white gel pan to add highlights to each of the ornaments.

    Other:

    • I die -cut “jolly” three times – once from holographic card stock and twice from black card stock.
    • I glued the two black die-cuts together and then added the silver one on top,  offsetting slightly.

    Assembly

    I glued the border layer to the cardbase and centered the card face on top of these.

    I added the die-cuts on an angle as shown.

    I added a small gold bead to the center of each bowl on the card face.

    I added three silver beads under the word as a finishing touch.

    Final Thoughts:

    This design transformed the pumpkins into Christmas baubles very well, and now I can use this stencil for fall , or for the Christmas season.

(Master Creator Bundles are excluded as they already have a 20% discount built in.)

    Let’s get Started:

    Card Base: 5.5 x 8.5, scored and folded at 4.25

    Card Face:  5 .5 x 4 ⅛

    Card Face:

    This card face began as a gel print  (one of many in my stash!)

    • I placed the card face on a piece of scrap paper and positioned the stencil.  I secured both with low-tack tape, and then added embossing paste through the openings in the stencil. 

     I only allowed partial coverage with the paste to maintain some of the interest created by the original background.

    • I put the card face into my stamp positioner and added the sentiment with Versafine Onyx.  I stamped several times to get good coverage,  and then sprinkled on black embossing powder and set it with my heat gun.

    Versafine is a pigment ink and stays wet long enough to use embossing powder successfully.

    Other:

    • I had previously stamped the bird and the present, and coloured them with alcohol markers; I just had to fussy cut them to get them ready for the card.

    Assembly

    • I glued the card face to the card base,  aligning to the right-hand edge, which left a narrow white border on the left.
    • I glued the bird and the gift in place as shown.
    • I added legs to the bird using a fineliner.  (The legs on the stamped image are too fine to cut out –  this is a super easy solution.)

    Final Thoughts:

    I loved this colourful card face and was hesitant to use it for fear of not liking the result. The details added have enough presence to stand out against all that colour –  so I’m happy with the result.

    Upcycling Scrap Paper for Beautiful Card Art

    Would you like to experiment with a design like this? You’ll find a supply list below, including a link to the stencils I used from A Colorful Life Designs.  Follow the link and use the discount code ChrisFan10 to save 10% on your entire order! (Master Creator Bundles are excluded as they already have a 20% discount built in.)

    Let’s get Started:

    Card Base: 5.5 x 8.5, scored and folded at 4.25

    Border Layer: 5.5 x 4.25

    Card Face: 5.25 x 4

    This card face began with what I call the “end cut” technique: a number of yellow, black, and white strips (leftover pieces from cardstock that had been cut down to a smaller size) were lined up and glued to a piece of scrap copy paper. This lets me use up these scraps rather than throwing them away and to create unique backgrounds.

    Card Face:

    • I placed the card face on my grip mat and positioned the Layered Honeycomb stencil.  I applied yellow-brown ink across all exposed areas.
    • Setting that stencil aside, I laid the bumblebee stencil down on the card face and used black ink across the exposed areas with a heavy hand.

    ** This is a layered stencil,  but I only used the bottom layer in this design.

    • I used a deckled-edged die to cut the card face down to the desired size.

    Other:

    • I stamped the sentiment and used a die to create the final shape.
    • I used a die to cut the bee from gold cardstock.

    Assembly

    • I glued the black border layer to the card base and then added the card face at an angle.
    • I added the die-cut bee, and then used a fineliner to add the dotted trail.
    • I added the sentiment as shown.

    Final Thoughts:

    This piece of created card face has been in my pile for a while, waiting to be used. Then one day I looked at it and knew exactly how to use it.  Not unusual in my world!

    I think it made a great backdrop for this fun scene. The stripes interrupting the stencilled images makes a unique visual. This card would work for soooo many different occasions.

    Let’s get Started:

    Card Base: 5.5 x 8.5, scored and folded at 4.25

    Card Face:  5.5 x 4.25

    I had already stamped and coloured this cute pup: the card face was set aside in the “someday” pile, waiting to be used.

    Card Face:

    • I put the card face on the grip mat and positioned the stencil.
    •  I used yellow ink across the exposed areas, allowing variation in tone. (I was careful to avoid the pup while I was inking.)
    • I placed the card face down in my stamp positioner and added the “Happy Birthday” with navy blue ink.
    • Using a scrap of copy paper, I covered the lower right portion of the card face to protect the pup, then added navy spatter.
    • I used a rounded rectangle die to cut out the sentiment.
    • I used a grey alcohol marker to add shadow under the pup,  grounding him in the space.
    • I added additional yellow ink around the edges of the card face.

    Assembly

    • I glued the card face to the card base.
    • I added dimensional foam to the back of the sentiment and set it in place.

    Final Thoughts:

    This is such a cute combination:  I’ve wanted this stencil for a while, and it’s going to see lots of use on my desk- it’s so versatile.
