Stamper's Anonymous Christmas 2020 - Winterscape Toile Card

Hi everyone! Thanks so much for all the love on my last post! This is my last Christmas CARD post using the new stamps and stencils from Tim Holtz and Stamper's Anonymous from the LIVE, and it is also a favorite of mine. I love Toile, and this Winterscape Stamp Set has the perfect winter toile images. Seriously, perfect! I LOVE how this card turned out. Enjoy!

Cut blue cardstock to 6 1/4 x 6 1/4 inches and place in the large stamp platform. Arrange all images from Winterscape except the snow, onto the card even placed. Secure to platform. Stamp the images in Jet Black Archival. It will take several stampings to get all the images dark enough, therefore, the platform is essential. Ink the edges in Gathered Twigs. Dry with a heat tool. 

 

 

Scribble Picket Fence Distress Crayon on the silicon mat, and pick up with a water brush, and color in all the snow areas on each stamp image. It will look best if colored in again after drying naturally. Dry with a heat tool. 

 

 

Using the sentiment 'Greetings of the Season', stamp in Jet Black on kraft cardstock and heat emboss in Gold Embossing Powder.

 

Take the snow stamp from Winterscape and lightly stamp the snow over each image and around it using Picket Fence Distress Ink and just holding the stamp in your hand. Dry completely with a heat tool. Use two sided tape to hold the middle of the ribbon to the card. Stitch around the card and over the ribbon using white thread to completely secure it.

 

Cut gold cardstock to 6 3/8 x 6 3/8 inches. Cut kraft card base to 6 1/2 x 6 1/2 inches. (NOTE: I only had 12 x 12 paper and that was not going to work, so I used kraft posterboard that I had on hand.) Adhere the gold on the kraft, and ink the edges of the kraft in Gathered Twigs. Adhere the toile card onto the gold. Cut around the sentiment, and ink the edges in Gathered Twigs, and adhere to ribbon of card using Collage Medium.

Stamper's Anonymous Christmas 2020 - Vintage Holidays Santa Card

Happy November everyone! Here is another Christmas card using new stamps from Tim Holtz and Stamper's Anonymous, the Vintage Holidays set...a set that epitomizes a retro vintage Christmas feel. AND...the best part about this set is that you can create your own ephemera for endless collaged layers in whatever color you choose. I totally had fun making this card, and love how it came out. Enjoy!

 

 Using the stamp platform stamp all ephemera pieces (not Santa, the sentiment, or the snowflakes) in Archival Ink...Faded Jeans, Red Geranium, Black Soot, onto either Heavystock, Kraft, or green cardstock. Cut out and ink edges in Gathered Twigs Distress. Set aside.

 

Stamp Santa in Black Soot onto Kraft Cardstock. Stamp Sentiment in Black Soot onto Kraft, and heat emboss with clear powder. Cut these out and ink edges in Gathered Twigs. Color in Santa with Distress Crayons and detail water brush. Color the borders of the sentiment with Tarnished Brass Crayon as well as Santa's buckle. Use Dark Gray Pitt Pens to outline areas on Santa. Use White Pitt Pen to completely fill in fur on Santa's clothes with tiny dots until covered to give a texture look. Use a white pen to give depth to letters in sentiment. Add foam tape to Santa and two sided tape to sentiment. Adhere Santa's feet to sentiment using Collage Medium. Set aside. 

 

 

Cut Kraft Cardstock card to 5 1/8 x 6 1/2 inches. Ink the edges in Gathered Twigs. Using a stamping block and snowflakes, stamp randomly all over kraft using Picket Fence Distress Ink. Dry with a heat tool. 

 

Using Collage Medium adhere ephemera pieces to kraft card around the borders of the card, but leave a 1/2 inch along the bottom right side for the belt.

 

 

Cut 8 inches of velvet ribbon. Cut one inch off and adhere to buckle base using two sided tape and collage medium. Punch hole for the brad, and insert brad. Add two sided tape to the back. Punch a hole 1 1/2 inches in on the remaining ribbon, and insert eyelet. Set eyelet with Crop-o-dile. Insert ribbon into buckle pulling tight, and trim end into a pointer shape. Add two sided tape to back, and adhere belt to card above the bottom two pieces of ephemera. Trim edges of ribbon off of card. Secure game spinner to card using the brad and Collage Medium. Stitch around card in white thread. Distress edges. Cut black cardstock to 5 1/4 x 6 3/4 inches. Attach kraft card to black cardstock, and then to red card base which is 5 1/2 x 7 inches. Adhere Santa and sentiment to card.
