Hello friends, a warm welcome to my blog where today I'm sharing how I made this Christmas card for Purple Onion Designs featuring the lovely 'Flappy's Christmas Delivery' stamp image illustrated by Chilliezgraphy by Pei.
I started by die cutting two deckle edged panels using the Hello Bluebird Stamps 'Nesting Deckle Mini Slimline Die'. I then stamped the image on the smaller panel along with the sentiment from Holiday Time Sentiment Stamp Set. I stamped using Memento Ink in Rich Cocoa.
I stamped the image once more on masking paper. I fussy cut this image and layered it over the image I'd stamped on the panel. I used Cornflower Ink by The Stamp Market to ink blend softly around the masked image and I spattered on some snow using white acrylic paint loosened a with a drop or two of water. I removed the mask and began to colour the image using the following Copic marker combinations:-
Flappy - C5, C3, C1, C0, C00
Scarf - G19, YG67, YG45, YG41, E77
Pink - RV63, RV52, RV10
Brown - E43, E41, E40
Blush - R22, R21, R20, R00
Shadow/Footprint - W3, W1, W0
I glazed Flappy's nose with a black glaze gel pen and then highlighted a few points.
To complete the card I used the white gel pen to dot in snow over the image. I backed the decorative panel with white craft foam and applied it to the larger deckle panel and then to a slightly smaller card base so that you can really see the deckle edge.
Another Christmas card complete!
