Big Bear Hugs and Frosty Kisses | Rubbernecker Stamps

 Hello friends!  I have a slimline Christmas or winter card using the oh SO adorable Rubbernecker Stamps Christmas Inchies stamp set.  I think these are so adorable!  They remind me of the cute little Weeble toys from long ago!  If you are still needing to make holiday cards, this one came together very fast!  Keep reading to see how I made it.

Creating the card base:

• Die cut the Slimline OPC Wavy die three times from white card stock and once from red glitter card stock.
• Adhere the layers together.
• Create a 3-¼" x 8-¼" slimline card base.
• Place the wavy frame (without adhering) onto the card base and use a pencil to lightly trace the wavy lines onto the card base.
• Also trace the lines onto some Post-It tape and cut along the lines to create masks.
• Place the masks onto the card base slightly below the pencil lines.
• Ink some Artic ink (from Color Fuse set #7) onto the card base, above each mask, using a blender brush.  Begin inking at the top and remove each mask as you go.  This will create just a hint of a blue sky for the little scene.

Remove the masks, erase the pencil lines, and adhere the frame to the card base.

Card elements:

• Stamp the images from the Christmas Inchies set with Copic safe ink and and color with Copic makers.
• Die cut with the coordinating dies.  (Mine are fussy cut as I still need to order the dies.  It was easy!)
• Use a white gel pen and a clear sparkle pen to add some fun details and sparkle to the images.
• Stamp the sentiment with Versafine Onyx Black ink onto white card stock.  Trim into a rectangle.
• Create a mat layer for the sentiment from red glitter card stock and adhere to the stamped sentiment.
• Use liquid glue or foam squares to adhere the sentiment and the colored images to the card.

Thank you so much for stopping by today!  I hope you have a wonderful, and crafty, week!
