Hi, everyone! It’s never too early to get a jump start on your holiday cardmaking! Teri here to get your creative juices flowing for making some super cards for the season like this Warm Winter Wishes Penguin Card … a few months ahead!
Warm Winter Wishes Card Base and Sentiments
Start by cutting some strips of patterned paper to go on a card. You’ll also want to stamp a large sentiment and a small one on a smaller strip of paper. Use your sentiments as a guide for lining up and adhering the strips of patterned paper onto a card. Be sure to adhere to that small sentiment strip on your card as well.
Add a Border and Snowballs
Take several 3D Foam Circles and cut them in half. Line them up along the sides of your card to make scalloped borders. Cover them with flock. (Not a flock fan? Try using our Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets in Nature to give them a sparkly finish!)
Take 3D Foam Strips and cut them up to fit on the back of your large sentiment. Be generous and use a lot of foam. This will keep your sentiment from getting crushed in the mail when you send out your card. (You can also use Crafty Foam Tape 54ft. for this. Just cut it up to fit the sentiment.) Adhere your sentiment to your card.
Stamp, color, and die-cut a couple of small Christmas or Winter images. Make sure they fit nicely over your large stamped sentiment. Adhere them to your card.
Complete the card by adding some snowballs to it. So, I used pompoms to mimic the look of snowballs. Just simply adhered them with Adhesive Dots Micro.
I hope you are inspired by today’s tutorial to get to work on your holiday cards!
