Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Today we will be playing with a wonderful new set from Art Impressions! It is the Ai Santa’s Workshop Set (5930) and it includes several cute little elves, Santa, envelopes, packages, a cute little elf house and several fun sentiments! This set also includes the coordinating dies which is always a bonus!

There is also an Ai Christmas Train Bundle Set (5975) available at a discounted bundled price and I have listed and linked that down below for you as well. This includes the Christmas Train Set (5929), Santa’s Workshop Set (5930), Santa Puppet Die Set (5931), Classic Christmas Paper Pack (5962), Classic Christmas Cover PP (5969). This is a great value that is chock full of fun stuff!

I recently did a card and video using this fun set and turned the little Christmas Elves into Woodland Elves. This card mixes some Christmas, Fall & Halloween Stamp Sets together for a fun look! I will link that down below for you if you would like to check it out!

To get started we will create a red/white/blue striped background using some paper strips. This is a great way to use your paper scraps. I thought it would be fun to create a postal “Letters to Santa” theme and this striped background will complement the postal theme perfectly!

Next, we can create the card base using some Kraft cardstock. We will create two A2 top folding cards and glue them together to create the accordion design. We can also add some white ink and white spatters to this card base to give it a softer and snowier look!

Now we can die-cut 3 of the snowflake frames from the Ai Snowflake Frame Set (5782) and we can also cut out the additional snowflakes from this same set.

To create the pretty blue sky, we will be doing an ink smooshing technique that is so much fun and so easy to do! I will show you exactly how to do this in today’s video!

Let’s attach the sky background to the snowflake frames and attach this to the striped background that we created earlier. Now we can attach each of these three panels to the card base.

We will also stamp, color and die cut all of the images including some extra envelopes and packages. All of the coloring today will be done using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Flesh Colour Sugared Almond Pink, Deep Red, Geranium Red, Yellow, May Green, Deep Green, Blue Gray, Deep Blue, Beige, Sand, Lt Gray, Mid Brown, Gray, Warm Gray 6. Once this is done, we will layout and assemble the pieces onto the card panels. This is the fun part…just deciding where you want all of the little images to appear in your scene!

Using the snowflakes that we die-cut, we can add them to the snowflake frames and to the inside of the card. We will stamp a sentiment here as well from the Ai Joyful Snowman Set (5802) and it will say “It’s the most wonderful time of the year”. This will be a great place to write a little message and sign your card.

Finally, let’s add a bit of red and white twine and tie a pretty bow!

Here is that video that I mentioned earlier:

Mixing Your Christmas, Fall & Halloween Stamp Sets!

October 30, 2024 October 29, 2024 by PinkWhisperDesigns in Art Impressions, Fall, Scene Cards, Thanksgiving No Comment

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Let’s have some fun today and combine several of our Art Impressions stamp sets to create a cute Autumn card! We will combine the brand-new Ai Santa’s Workshop Set (5930), Ai Woodland Tree Cubbies Set (5100), Ai Spooky Wagon Set (5456), and the Ai Foxes Set (5951). As you can see, we will be combining Christmas, Halloween and Fall sets together to create this special card!

It’s fun to look through your sets and see what you can combine together for a unique look on your cards. You can be sure that no one else will create a card just like yours and it’s a great way to get more out of the sets you may already have. Sometimes just adding one new set (like these cute little elves) to your collection can give you many more possibilities for your cards and projects.

We will be using the Christmas elves, the woodland tree cubbies, the pumpkins and leaves! To get started let’s stamp, color and die cut all our images from the various sets. We will be coloring them using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Sugared Almond Pink, Dk Blossom Pink, Scarlet Red, Yellow, Flesh Colour, Mustard, Sand, Beige, May Green, Green, Olive Green, Persian Green, Smoky Teal, Dull Blue, Aquamarine Blue, Mid Brown, Dk Gray, Lt Gray, Red Grape, Deep Red Grape.

Next, we will create a simple, yet gorgeous sky using some Strathmore Bristol Smooth Cardstock and the Tim Holtz Distress Mini Ink Pads in Tumbled Glass and Peacock Feathers, and the grass using Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn. We will do an ink “smooshing” technique which is where you apply the ink to your glass media mat and then you will “smoosh” the colors onto the mat and spritzing them with a bit of water and then lay your paper over top of this ink. The results are amazing, and it really is quite easy. It will give us the perfect cloudy sky and green grass. I’ll show you this in today’s video!

Our square card will measure 5 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ and will be made from some heavy weight kraft cardstock. Next, let’s attach our 5 1/4″ x 5 1/4″ sky and grass to the card.

Finally, we can go ahead and assemble the card by adding the leaves to the tree, the little elves in the doors and windows, and the little pumpkins. For the sign post we will mask off the word “Boooo!” and add the word “Autumn” instead. I’ll show you how to do this in the video as well.

I hope this card has inspired you to dig through your stash and build a fun seasonal scene using some stamps and dies that you may already have!
