Hello Krafty Friends!
It is INSPIRATIONAL WEDNESDAY!
the day we provide you with a bit of extra krafty inspiration to help you get creative with your krafty stamps!
Krafty girl Anna here!
Today I have decided to make a special Christmas card
with the lovely clearstamps set
designed by Emilie Goulet called polar pals .
This set can actually be used for various occasions ,
and besides this super cool polar bear and penguins
it also has a fun racoon and some lovely sentiments .
Anyway I love to make Christmas cards ,
not only in November but during the whole year :)
as I do not like to make them in a rush just before Christmas.
Did you know that at Kraftin Kimmie's group on facebook
we have a weekly Christmas challenge folder with a theme?
A special shaped card, I think I will add a little holder on the back so that it can be hung / attached to the wall or a door as decoration too.
I have stamped the stamp with wicked black ink onto Copic paper
( Perfect Colouring Paper ),
the poinsetta was coloured withsome
whimsical wisteria ink and salty sea ink and water * .
* The ink was put on my Tim Holtz glass mat
and after having sprayed some water onto the ink
I have pushed the poinsetta
cutted out of watercolour paper on top.
Copic colours;
polar bear and penguins :
N 0, N 1, N 3, N 6
YR 61, YR 65
background :
BG 70, BG 72,
V 0000, V 000, V 01, V 12, V 15, V 17, BV 08
This background was inspired by a lovely blogpost of Faye..
it is easy to do and I love the effect.
