Hello Bluebird Stamps - Christmas Release Preview Day 1

 

So excited to reveal my first card for Hello Bluebird's Christmas Release which you can buy tomorrow, November 17th at 7pm MST.   This release will run in conjunction with their huge Black Friday Sale.  Shop early for the new release and sale to avoid disappointment and inevitable shipping delays!

My card today features the following products:-

Cozy Plaid Background Stamp

Hill and Dale Die

To create the card I prepped a red panel of cardstock.  Over this I layered a panel stamped using the Cozy Plaid BG stamp.  I layered a panel of vellum over the top and then  I cut a white snowy 'ground' using Hill and Dale and stamped the sentiment on it and then glued it to the background panel.

I used both the Postage Frame Die and Candy Cane Lane Die to die cut different elements from different coloured cardstock.  I assembled the candy canes and gathered in some ice blue 'fir' and the bow in sparkling silver cardstock and adhered everything down.

I stamped the snowman and Santa on to two of the postage stamps and coloured with the following Copic markers:-

Snowman - C3, C1, C0, C00, R39, R29, R27, BG11, BG0000

Santa - R59, R39, R29, R27, E34, E11, E21, C3, C1, C0, T6

The stamps were backed with foam tape and applied to the scene and I framed it all out using the frame that forms part of the Postage Frame Die, this white frame was also applied with foam tape to build some nice dimension.
