Simon Says Stamp | Happy Holidays Card. Video

Hello friends and Happy Sunday! Hubby and I are packing for a quick trip with our moms for the Thanksgiving break. We don’t celebrate Thanksgiving here in the Ukraine, but during the time we spent in the USA we’ve grown to really love and appreciate this holiday. So this year, even though we are not in the USA, we are taking a few days off work to spend time with our family and be thankful for everything we have in life.

Today I have another Christmas card idea to share! This one features Copic coloring on colored cardstock (Sea Glass by Simon Says Stamp) and some simple stamping.

CARD DETAILS

I first stamped all of the images for this card using Intense Black ink (I’m showing Memento on video, but I later had to re-do the card and stamped everything in Intense Black). I love this house images with a snowy slope and also the bold sentiment. I used images a bunch of stamp sets to create this card (I love doing that!).

Next, I sparkle heat embossed snowflakes on the background “behind” the house. They, along with the white pen dots and clear jewels look like falling snow.

I used my Copic markers to color the house red (R39, R27, R24). I also used a shimmer pen from Tonic Studios to add shimmering detail to the roof. This is why I used Intense Black ink for stamping, the Memento ink actually bled when I colored over it with my shimmer pen.

I trimmed and Sea Glass panel with all of the stamping down slightly and adhered onto an A2 white side folding card base with diagonal stripe stamped on the front of it in red ink.
