Merry Mocha Card with Tina

Hello crafty friends, it’s Tina with a very adorable Christmas card featuring the sweet Merry Mocha stamp and die set! And who better to add to a ‘Merry’ card than five cuties from Penguin Party. I always had a soft spot for these little guys, so I was thrilled to let them join the festivities!

For my base panel I die cut a piece of white Neenah paper with the largest of the Stitched Semi Circles. Sometimes I feel a bit intimidated to create a full A2 size scene. Using a smaller shape as your focal point really comes in handy to limit that space. It’s a technique I love to use on my cards. Next, I added some fun texture to this white piece by dry embossing it with the Lots of Dots embossing folder.

I created a white card base and added a beautiful red plaid paper from the All Is Bright pad cut with the outer die from the Frilly Frames Stripes die. This instantly provides a pop of color!

After stamping and die cutting all my images, I used my trusty Copics for the coloring. Going for the traditional holiday colors this time. Since you can never have enough sparkle, I added some white glitter to the brim of the hats, pompoms, and candy canes.

Before placing the penguins onto the white semi-circle, I masked off the bottom portion and inked it with some Abandoned Coral Distress Oxide ink. My sentiment is from the Merry Mocha set and I stamped it with Versafine Onyx Black ink.

To assemble the card, I glued my white panel to the card base, added all the critters and the cute mug. Finally, I mounted the sentiment to the left corner with some foam tape. A few Chrystal Clear jewels were added as embellishments. These are by far my favorite gems as they go with so many designs!

Wishing you lots of crafty fun making your own scene with this sweet Merry Mocha set! Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!
