RED OBSESSION CARDS: Santa Baby

Santa Baby

Good evening all

My card tonight is for a Guest Designer spot over at Digital Delights. This digital stamp is called Santa Baby and I have coloured with ProMarkers. The card has been made in my favourite Christmas colour combo, red and blue.

I have started by stamping the Honey Doo Crafts Christmas Wishes stamp onto white card stock using Perfect Medium. Next, I have heat embossed using Wow Bright White embossing powder and inked the white card using the Tim Holtz Tumbled Glass Distress Ink pad.

I have taken another piece of white card stock and embossed it using a lattice embossing folder and using the same ink pad, I have added a softer colour.

Both pieces have then been mounted onto red card stock to form the background of the card.

I have cut out the digital stamp and mounted her onto a circle of white card and added glitter to her hat and dress.

I have then made three different snowflakes. For the largest, I have cut out two from the Heartfelt Creations Arianna Lace die set, added colour using the same ink pad and mounted them together. I have added a red gemstone brad to the centre and hung a snowflake charm from this.

I have then used the stamen dies from the Arianna Blooms die set and again, added colour and layered them together with a red gemstone in the centre and for the final snowflake, I have used a die which came free with a cardmaking machine. This one I have left white and added a red gemstone brad to the centre.

To finish this clean and simple card, I have stamped Christmas Wishes from the Honey Doo Crafts stamp set, into the top right hand corner of the card.
