STAMPIN' UP! RUSTIC CENTERPIECE CHRISTMAS CARD #1

 Today's card features my favourite stamp from the Rustic Centerpiece stamp set.  How cute is this wooden reindeer?!

I stamped the image in Jet Black StazOn ink, on Fluid 100 Watercolor Paper, and cut it out using a Textured Notes Die.

To add to the rustic look, I watercoloured the stamped image a little messily.  Sorry to my friends and followers who like a perfect, clean look!  😄

These are some of my favourite details - the Real Red panel embossed with the Forever Plaid 3D embossing folder, the decorative edge of the Textured Notes die-cut, and the Adhesive-Backed Peppermints:

To create the tag, I die-cut a piece of Basic White Thick card, using a Layers of Beauty die.  Using a Blending Brush, I coloured it with Crumb Cake ink.  I then stamped the sentiment, from Humble Home, in Jet Black StazOn ink.  A Linen Thread bow was attached with Liquid Glue, once everything was stuck down.

The watercolouring was done with a Water Painter and drops of reinkers in a palette.

Inside the card, I added a sentiment from Greetings of the Season, in Real Red ink.

HOC WEEK 8: STAMPIN' UP! HUMBLE HOME CHRISTMAS CARD

 

Every Monday night, until late November, a group of us (all Stampin' Up! demostrators in Australia) is sharing Christmas projects, to inspire you to use Stampin' Up!'s gorgeous products in your Christmas crafting.

I have combined two of my favourite Christmas bundles - Humble Home, and Peaceful Season - to create the card I'm sharing tonight.  The super-festive background paper is from the Reindeer Days Designer Series Paper pack.

I don't think I'll ever tire of these beautiful sentiments ... how nicely they stamp, and die-cut, and co-ordinate with one another.  I stamped "Christmas" in Garden Green ink, and cut it out with the co-ordinating die (although I now see my placement of the die was a little "off" - whoops!).  The second line of the sentiment is stamped in Real Red ink, and was cut out using a Delicate Forest Die. 

Here's a closer look at one of the little houses, and the Garden Green embossed card strip.  I embossed the pattern on the Garden Green card using the Dashing Designs 3D embossing folder.  I then flipped it over, so the debossed side is showing, and inked the edges with Garden Green ink.

The houses were stamped in Jet Black StazOn ink, on Thick Basic White card.  I coloured them using Stampin' Blends Markers in Pecan Pie and Real Red, with Daffodil Delight used for the window light detail.  The wreath was coloured with my Granny Apple Green Stampin' Blends, and dots added with the Garden Green Stampin' Write Marker.

I mounted each house onto a Basic White circle cut with a Stylish Shapes Die.  The Real Red hearts were punched out using the Humble Home punch.
