Hi there!
I’ve got a warm and cozy card to share today that’s just perfect for your Winter card-making. I gave mine a bit of a Christmas feel because I’ve been feeling super festive lately.
To make this card, I used a stencil and some glitter gel to create the banner. My banner dies hadn’t arrived yet, so once the glitter gel was dry, I used my paper trimmer and scissors to cut the banner to the size I wanted and adhered it directly to my card front with liquid glue.
I stamped the mittens from the Warmest Wishes stamp set (this set is part of the Simon kit and is available separately if you’re interested). I used Cherry ink to stamp the mitten, then used my blending brush with a bit of Brick ink directly onto the stamp and around the edges to give the mittens a bit of depth.
I stamped the berry stems and the sentiment (both are part of the Warmest Wishes set) then fussy cut all the images.
I die cut a circle out of vellum, then arranged my berry stems and mittens where I wanted them. I used a bit of baker’s twine to make the mittens look like they were hanging from the stems band and secured all the images to the vellum circle using foam adhesive.
I used more foam adhesive behind the vellum circle (and behind the images) and placed it on my card front so that it slightly overlapped the banner. I then added my sentiment with both liquid glue and foam adhesive.
I rounded out the card with a few Cherry dazzling gems just for a bit more sparkle.
I hope you like this card and that it inspires you to create something beautiful!
Have a wonderfully creative day, everyone!
Hi Jean. I love your cards. The glitter gel through the heart stencil turned out beautifully. I want to try that technique.
Thank you so much, Bo!
Darling card! Great idea, love it!
Thank you so much!
