Be Jolly Gnomes

Hi there,

I created this fun Gnome Christmas Card for Mennys Bastelshop:

  • stamp three little gnomes form the Mama Elephant Little Gnome Agenda with Lawn Fawn Jet Black 
  • color the images with Spectrum Noir Triblend Markers and add extra shading with Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils 
  • use the My favorite Things Blueprints 20 die set and patterned paper form the My favorite Things Christmas Cheer 6x6 paper pack to create a backdrop
  • the sentiment is from the Lawn Fawn Winter Big Scripty Words set - stamped with Versamark, heat-embossed with WOW! Bright White Super Fine embossing powder and die cut
  • adhere all the elements to a kraft cardbase splattered with watered-down white acrylic paint
  • ink up the edges with Distress Ink Gathered Twigs
  • add three white snowflakes as final embellishments

I hope you got inspired.

Hugs,

Joy Penguin

Hi there,

this is another card using the super cute Karten-Kunst penguins stamp set:

  • cut out a Karten-Kunst 1/8 Inch Circle from white cardstock and a 1/4 Inch Scalloped Circle from patterned paper
  • stamp one of the Karten-Kunst Penguins with Versafine Onyx Black and add color with paper piecing and Faber-Castell Polychromos pencils
  • cover a cardbase with patterned paper and stamp some snowflakes from the Karten-Kunst Zauberhafte Schneeflocken set with Hero Arts Unicorn pigment ink
  • cut out the letters "J" and "Y" from black cardstock and patterned paper with the help of the Karten-Kunst Joy Alphabet

Don't you just love the adorable Karten-Kunst Penguins stamp set, too?

Hugs,
