For today I have decided to make a funky christmas card. I followed the sketch provided on the Ismaki blog and chose to use traditional green and pink. The result is the above. I like the way it turned out, however the colouring could have been a bit better as you can see the watermark in it. I have watched Katerina's tutorial and will try out her tips.
Materials:
Core' dinations - Love Potion by Papermania
Colossal Paper Pack - Traditional Christmas by Papermania
Anita's clear stamps - Christmas Cute and Cuddly by Papermania
Cuttle bug embossing folder - Winter Jelly
See D's Springtime Swirls
Fibra colour markers
Tools
Nail File
Sizzix die cutting Machine
Circle by Sizzix
- Cut a square patterned paper, slightly smaller than the card blank. Stamp the image on a die cut circle and colour in. Cut a scalloped circle from Love Potions core' dinations and file the edges.
- Cut a rectangular piece of Love Potion core'dinations, file the edges ( you can also use scissors). Cut a thin rectangle out of the green patterned paper and attach as shown.
- Using the Love Potions emboss the snowflake and sand the image.
- Attach everything using foam pads for added dimension.
