Cute Snowman Christmas

Cute Snowman Christmas

Snow much fun making this Cute Snowman Christmas card!  Do you see the snowman is white and not blue?  I didn’t use any layers on him or mask the image, I bleached him!  Get your Aqua Painters, fill with fresh bleach.  First stamp the snowman with StazOn black ink, then punch out the image with your 1 3/8″ circle punch.  Carefully color in the snowman and snow with your Aqua Painter filled with bleach.  You might want to try this a few times before you can stay within the lines.

Cute Snowman Christmas with 3 colorsA special note about the cardstock you use.  I tried using Bashful Blue with the bleach, but the snowman stayed blue.  Then I used Baja Breeze with the bleach and it turned out perfect!  I also tried the Bashful Blue marker on Whisper White, but I didn’t like it as much.  So here is the picture to show you the difference.

Baltimore Serene Snowflakes and Pens Swaps


Wednesday, September 29th, 2010

The excitement of going to the Stampin’ Up! Balitmore Regional convention is so exciting!  I had to make something different, so I used acetate with StazOn White ink to make these cards.  The inside words are from the SU! Sizzlits Decorative Strip, Join In The Cheer.  Stamp set is Serene Snowflakes.

Isn’t nice to get something nice that you can really use?  How about a pen?  The pens are a simple pen that you can take the ends off and easily put back on.  Here’s a little hint: Before inserting paper inside pen, role the paper around a pencil to give it some curl.  This will help the paper slide in easier and prevent bending the paper.

Products used:
2 1/4″x7/8″ White or Very Vanilla Cardstock
Circle Circus and Hello Again stamp sets
Tag punches, large and small
5 petal punch
Inks- Pacific Point, Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight and Basic Black
