A Christmas Card | Pinkfresh Studio

Hey, crafty friends! Dropping by to share a Christmas Card with you featuring the Train Ride Stamp Set from Pinkfresh Studio. I love this set for adorable whimsical images and for the stamping fun it gives you! I was inspired by The Polar Express. It is a 2004 American 3D computer-animated adventure film based on the 1985 children’s book of the same name by Chris Van Allsburg. I don’t know why, but suddenly this film came into my head when I was looking to the stamp set.

I started working on my card by blending inks to make a background. I used Altenew inks in the following colors: Oceans Waves, Desert Night and Distress Ink Blueprint Sketch. I then added water splatters and stamped some tiny images (snowflakes and gift boxes).

Next, I taped down a Dotted Lines stencil onto the panel, took some Altenew embossing paste and spread it out over the panel through the stencil. I then added Zing blue glitter embossing powder and used my heat tool to melt it.

I then stamped the train, mouse and squirrel using yellow, rose, blue and black colors. I die-cut all images using the matching dies. I foam mounted the train onto the card panel. To make a sign I stamped images onto white card stock with soft color and stamped a sentiment. I then foam mounted it onto my card.

To finish off my card I added some snowflakes.
