Season of Wonder

It’s that time again. Time for another awesome release from Simon Says Stamp!

I was fortunate to receive the adorable Wintertime Critters stamp set to create with. I decided to use the same layout for all my cards, just stepping it up a bit each time. There are several cute images and lots of holiday sentiments in this set for your cardmaking. The images are fun to color and you can create a card quickly with them. Dies are available as well.

Card #1:

For this card, I stamped the dog image and colored him with Copic Markers. I colored the nose and dotted the eyes with a Sakua Black Glaze pen. I also used a white gel pen to fill in the snow flakes. Then, I die cut a red panel using Lawn Fawn’s Outside In Stitched Square stackable dies. But you could use any stitched square to acheive a similiar look. I stamped the sentiment onto the red panel and added foam tape to the back for dimension. I adhered the red panel to the white panel and added it to a top folding A2 card base.

Card #2:

For this card, I did some very simple Copic Coloring and once again colored the nose with the Black Glaze pen. This card was made exactly like the previous card, except I added some Trinity Stamp clay snowflake sprinkles to add some texture to the card.

Card #3:

I stepped up my final card by adding some sparkle to the background. To achieve this, I stamped the Simon Says Stamp Star cling stamp with embossing ink and sprinkled on Ranger embossing powder. I used my heat tool to melt the powder and I love the shine this added to my card. This little piggy likes the glitter too!
