Merry Mocha Card with Alma

Hello everyone, Alma here! Today I want to show you a card that is as colorful and cheerful as I imagine Christmas to be! At the center of the card is the winter mug from the Merry Mocha Stamps set. 

Since everyone loves to enjoy a big slice of Christmas cake with their hot cocoa, I stamped the cake from the Special Day Stamps set and decorated it with elements from the Holiday Express Stamps set to give it a festive Christmas look. For me, the "marzipan" tree ;-) is the big highlight of the cake. The cake’s pattern is created with the snowflake from the Merry Mocha Stamps set. I colored the images using Copics.

Overall, the card is designed as an indoor scene, as I created the card base using the Windows Quad Square Dies. This die is perfect for quick window cards and fits a classic card format beautifully. It's also great for making shaker cards. The scent of hot chocolate and Christmas cake has even drawn in guests from outside! As you can see, Santa and his reindeer friends have sneaked up to the window, waiting for a big slice of delicious cake. Santa is from the Santa Claus Lane Stamps, and the reindeer are from the Reindeer Games Stamps set.

For the background, I used Distress Oxide Inks in Chipped Sapphire and Peacock Feathers, and created a winter landscape using the Forest Trees Stencil and a white gel pen. Finally, I added sequins to complete the shaker card! To finish, I used the Brilliant Banner 4 Dies and stamped the text "Have a super jolly Christmas" from the Reindeer Games Stamps set.

Holiday Express Card with Tina

Hello crafty friends, Tina here with a card that is featuring the adorable Holiday Express stamp and die set. This set is of course perfect for your Christmas cards (as I show here today), but it can also be used for so many other occasions!

For this design I wanted to create a dreamy, snowy sky with several layers of clouds. I cut three panels of white card stock to an A2 size and die cut the top parts with a cloud die from my stash, similar to this one. Next, I inked up two panels with Distress Oxides Salvaged Patina and Peacock Feathers. I kept the third one white for extra interest and contrast.

I created a white card base slightly smaller than A2 size and started layering the cloud panels to figure out which height they needed to be. I cut the three panels to size and adhered them to my card base, making sure the white clouds were in the middle. And finishing the scene with a white snowbank which was mounted to the bottom of the card with foam tape.

Next, I selected which elements from the Holiday Express stamp set I wanted to use. There are several cute critters and an adorable Santa, today I went for the sweet polar bear! I stamped and cut the locomotive, car, tree, and some presents as well as a few decorations. For my Copic coloring I chose traditional Christmas colors and as always, I added white highlights and snowflakes with a gel pen. All the images were adhered to the scene using foam tape for dimension.

Lastly, I stamped a sentiment from Reindeer Games onto a white Brilliant Banner 1 with red die ink from my stash. That pop of color matches the train and car! A few snowflakes and stars from the Snowflake Circle Frame die were scattered around the sentiment. Some of them got embellished with a Pure White Jewel.

Thank you so much for visiting the blog, I can’t wait to see your creations with this fun set! Happy crafting!

Truckloads of Love Card with Marine

Hey crafty friends, Marine here with you today, I'm back with the mice family, and this time they're busy delivering presents and building a snow mouse. If you haven't seen their apple picking adventures yet, you can check it out right here. And among many stamp sets (listed down below) my card also features Truckloads Of Love which I've already used here and here.

I started off by creating a simple background on an A2 sized card base. For the sky I used a multicolor polka dot paper from the All Is bright 6x6 paper pack, and for the snowy part I used a subtle gingham grey paper from the Joyful Holiday 6x6 paper pack.

As very often, I went through my entire stamp collection to pick a bunch of stamps, stamped all the images on 80lb Neenah solar white cardstock using an alcohol marker friendly black ink, cut them all using the coordinating dies, and then colored everything using my Graph'it brush markers + Spectrum Noir Illustrator markers. Here is a detailed list of the stamps I picked to build my little scene:

• Truckloads Of Love: truck, group of presents
• Harvest Mice: mice, sweaters
• Holiday Express: trees
• Scenic Route: village
• Christmas Critters: mouse (in the truck)
• Merry Mice: mice, scarves, hat
• Penguin Pals: candy canes
• North Pole: nice list, present
• Santa Claus Lane: presents, sack

I white heat embossed my "Driving by to wish you a merry Christmas" greeting from Truckloads Of Love on a pink banner, attached everything on my panel using 1mm foam squares and liquid glue, and finished my card with highlights and details on the images using a white gel pen. 

And that's it, we have a super cute and fun little scene that will definitely make someone smile. Thank you so much for stopping by, and see you next time.
