The holidays in December give me
the opportunity to get creative. For this card I used Christmas tree stamp from
Stampabilities #OR1059 and Hero Arts stamp H5267 Santa. I also used the Art
Deco Cricut Cartridge to design an old car from card stock. I colored using
Tombow Water Color Markers and metallic Gelly Roll pens. I gave the card depth
by using foam dimensional on the back of the car and Santa.
Instructions:
Using 2 colors (I used a green and
a light blue) of card stock cut and paste a landscape background to a 5” x 6.5”
card base.
Stamp tree on watercolor paper
using jet black, Stazon Solvent Ink.
Use Tombow Watercolor Markers to
color green areas, followed by red on the ribbons and bows. I use a waterbrush
to drag color on the ribbons.
Color ornaments in assorted colors.
Use Metalic Gelly Roll pens for the
star and some embellishments of ornaments.
Cut out tree leaving a white edge
around the tree and gifts.
Glue tree to background on the
upper left.
Using holiday colors of card stock
and Art Deco Cricut Cartridge page 31 cut car 2 at 3”. Glue car layers together
and place foam dimensionals on the back and adhere to card.
Stamp Santa on watercolor paper
using jet black, Stazon Solvent Ink and color.
Print and color Santa on watercolor
paper.
Cut out Santa leaving a white edge.
Add red glitter to hat and
stockings.
Place foam dimensionals on the back
and adhere to the card.

Great final effect! Hope it sells well for you! Am a recent followers - from one of the blog hops I've recently found how to join - and would love you to visit my blog sometime. Any views would be welcome, as am thinking of enlarging it in 2013 to possibly create a child's book. Your views would therefore be most welcome.
