Hey There,
Well, I am home in my PJ’s sick as a dog, yuck! But, since Thanksgiving is behind us I am geared up to start those Christmas cards and I did feel well enough to create a card tutorial for you today. Here is a little Christams card using two of the wonderful Stampin’ Up! sets from the Holiday catalog, Joyous Celebrations and Merry Minis. I did a reverse image technique to create the shadow for the deer. The complete tutorial for this card is below. Enjoy!

Project Supplies:
Stampin’ Up! Stamps: Merry Minis and Joyous Celebrations
Card Stock: Stampin’ Up! Whisper White and Island Indigo
Ink: Stampin’ Up! Baja Breeze, Island Indigo and Basic Black
Accessories: Stampin’ Up! sponge, curly label punch, brayer, post it notes, 1.25″ circle punch, Baja Breeze Designer Series Paper and rhinestones
Masked the snow with a post it note with the edge torn and a 1 1/4″ circle punched from a post it note to mask for the moon.
Brayered Baja Breeze ink at the top of the card stock.
Stamped the trees using Baja Breeze ink and then brayered Island Indigo ink at the very top of the card stock.
Sponged Baja Breeze ink along the post it note edge. Removed the masks and stamped the deer using Basic Black ink.
Created a reverse image of the deer for a shadow by stamping the deer using Baja Breeze ink on the slick side of my Stamp a ma jig plastic sheet. Flipped the plastic sheet over and lined the deer image up where I wanted it then rubbed it on the card stock.
Colored in the reverse image using a Baja Breeze marker to darken it.
Re-applied the snow mask at an angle under the reverse image and sponged Baja Breeze ink along the post it note edge to create a small hill at the bottom of the scene.
Added an Island Indigo card base and an Island Indigo panel. Also added a panel of Baja Breeze DSP.
Added a curly label punch that has been cut in half and 4 rhinestones.
Here is the completed card measuring 4.25″ x 5.5″.
May your day be out of this world wonderful.
Until my next post. . . . . .
Hugs,
Get ready for Brayer Workshops!
