Snow One Like You Cards with Mendi

Hi there! I hope you have been enjoying a wonderful holiday weekend. I couldn't let the week pass without joining in the fun and sharing a couple cards of my own using the Snow One Like You mini stamps and dies that you can receive as a free with purchase through tomorrow.

Card No. 1: For my first card I paired the cute new focal point image in the center from the Snow One Like You set with two snowmen from our Feeling Frosty Stamps. I thought it would be fun to go pink and girly for my card so I colored all my snowman's accessories in hot pink and then lightly blended some Picked Raspberry distress ink in my background. When the background was dry I repeatedly stamped two mini snowflakes from the set in the background, stamping with clear VersaMark Ink and heat embossing with Hero Arts White Detail Powder. For my snowy hill behind my snowmen, I used one of the stitched slope dies from our Slimline Nature Border Dies and then framed my scene adding stitching to my simple white cardstock using another border die from our Slimline Basic Border Dies. My last touch was stamping the greeting from the Snow One Like You set using Versafine Onxy Black Ink.

Card No. 2: For my second card, I pulled out our Winter Scenes Stamps for my backdrop and a second girl from our Fall Kiddos Stamps to compliment the new stamps. I heat embossed the snowy sky onto some watercolor paper using our Frosty Flurries Stamps and quickly washed on some color using Daniel Smith Watercolors. I actually created a full sized panel of this for some cards I was making last Christmas, but I was able to trim down the extras that would have been hidden to use on three separate cards. I always love when I can stretch little things like this to save me more time in the long run.

Finally I stamped my sentiment from the Snow One Like You set and added three little hearts from our Mini Basic Shape Dies II set which I colored with Copics to match my stamped images. I love that the sentiment in this new set comes as four separate pieces allowing the flexibility to stamp them stacked like this or all in a single row like I did for my first card! It's always nice to have options to work with different spaces.

Snow One Like You Tags & Card with Rachel Alvarado

Hello crafty friends! It's Rachel here with a couple of fun winter-themed projects to share with you! First, I have a pair of shaker tags that feature the adorable Snow One Like You Stamp Set. This set is currently free with a purchase of $40 or more through Monday (see full details below).

Sunny Studio: Snowman Christmas Holiday Gift Tags by Rachel Alvarado (using Snow One Like You Stamps, All Is Bright Paper, Scalloped Circle Tag Dies & Slimline Nature Border Dies)

To create these tags, I first used the Scalloped Circle Tag Dies combined with a basic circle die to die cut 5 tag fames and one patterned paper tag frame from the All is Bright Paper Pad. I glued the regular 5 tag frame pieces together to create dimension to fit my embellishment (glitter) and adhered the entire frame to my base piece. For my base piece, I had blended some Peacock Feather for my background and added a snowy hill using both the Slimline Nature Border Dies as well as the same basic circle die that I had used for my frame.

I added a piece of clear acetate that I cut with the large Scalloped Circle Tag Die and then adhered my final frame of patterned paper. I finished off my tags with some string and ribbon. (All of my images were stamped onto a piece of Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 110lb Card Stock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored with Copic Markers.)

Sunny Studio: Santa Claus Christmas Train Shaker Card by Rachel Alvarado (using Holiday Express Stamps & Stitched Arch Dies)

For my second project, I created a shaker card using the new Holiday Express Stamp Set combined with the Stitched Arch Dies. I made my card one layer so that my "snow" could move freely inside the card.

Copic Colors Used: Reds: R14, R27, R46, R89; Black: C3, C5, C7, Greens: YG01, YG06, YG17; White: 0, C00, C1, C3
