from this month on I have the great joy to join the Happy Little Stampers Christmas Challenge Design Team. This month the optional twist is "Die Cuts":
- stamp the adorable little penguin from the WPlus9 Winter Pals set with Versafine (Onyx Black) and color the image with Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils
- color a piece of smooth white cardstock with Distress Inks (Tumbled Glass, Broken China) and a Mini Ink Blending Tool and die cut one of the Lawn Fawn Stitched Snowflakes
- cut the sentiment strip from that same colored paper with the help of one of the My Favorite Things Stitched Sentiment Strips
- stamp the sentiment from the Clearly Besotted Stamps Arctic Animals set with Hero Arts Shadow Ink (Pool)
- mist the stitched watercolor panel with Heidi Swapp Minc Reactive Mist and let it dry thoroughly
- once it's dry run the panel through the Mini Minc together with DecoFoil (Silver Star)
- ink up the edges of the panel with Distress Ink (Broken China)
- ink up the edges of the cardbase with Distress Ink (Faded Jeans) before adhering the panel
I can't wait to see your creations in the gallery.
Yours,
Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous Tanja! Love that little penguin and all the bling.
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the Christmas team Tanja and what a splendid start! Loving all the glitter and shine.
ReplyDeleteSo glad to be designing alongside you on the Christmas Tean Tanja. I love that adorable little penguin, and especially his purple earmuffs. He looks wonderful amid all that sparkle and shine.
