Hello, this is Nicky with you today on the Alex Syberia Designs blog and I’m sharing a card created using products from the BRAND NEW release which is available for purchase now! After reading this post and if you haven’t already, please check out today’s Instagram hop Amazing new Christmas and Holiday themed stamps and dies and my card today features some of those in combination with formerly released items. Here’s a list of the products I’ve used:-
Christmas Postage Stamps Stencil
Christmas Postage Stamps
Postage Stamps Cover Die
Postage Stamps Stencil
Black & Silver Mix Cardstock Pack
I used the Postage Stamps Cover Die and die cut an A2 white panel of cardstock. Over this I layered the Postage Stamps Stencil and secured it. I then used the first in the Christmas Postage Stamps Stencil Set and layered it over and secured this too. I began to ink blend through the stencil, one stencil from the set in turn until all images were complete. I used the following Distress Oxide Inks for my colour palette:-
Lumberjack Red
Abandoned Coral
Lost Shadow
Tea Dye
Black Soot
Pine Needles
Iced Spruce
I removed all of the stencils and then came in with black ink and the Christmas Postage Stamps stamp set and stamped the words and other images. I also used a white gel pen to highlight some areas.
To form the card I backed the main panel with dimensional foam tape and applied it to an A2 white panel of cardstock which in turn was glued to a slightly large panel of sparkling cream cardstock from the Black & Silver Mix Cardstock which in turn was attached to a card base and with that, this Christmas card was complete.
Thanks for stopping by the blog today and enjoy shopping and crafting with the new release products.
Nicky
