These are only available over at the Simon Says Stamp shop and you can find it by clicking HERE. There if also a stamp/die combo available is you are a die loving crafter like me!
Here's a good peek at the set!
I created an almost-one-layer card with this adorable Warm Wishes stamp set! Here are the steps for making one:
- Plan your scene by laying out the stamps as you want them to appear on the card.
- Stamp each image onto masking paper and cut out.
- Remember to stamp what will be in the very front (such as the snowman's hat) first.
- Note: Do as I say not as I did, like stamping the snowman first, before the hat and scarf! LOL!
- To fix my mistake, I stamped the snowman's hat and scarf again this time on some 80# Neenah with Intense Black ink. I added the masks and stamped the snowman. Then I fussy cut him out and colored it with my Copics.
- I added foam tape to the snowman and popped it up over the previously stamped image.
- Continue stamping, then masking, each image with Intense Black ink (Copic safe.)
- When finished stamping, make sure all images are covered with a mask.
- Ink the sky with Milled Lavender, Shaded Lilac, and Blueprint Sketch Distress Oxide inks. I used an ink blender brush add the inks. (Supply links are at the end of my post.)
- Remove the masks and color the images with Copic markers.
- I decided to stamp the gifts again on some scrap cardstock to have a couple more to pop up onto the sled. Kind of goes with the popped up snowman!
I added shading under the snowman, sled, and trees with a BV01 and B60 Copic Marker. Next I stamped the sentiment from the set with Versamark and heat set white embossing powder. Then I used the snowflake stamp from the set and repeated the heat embossing steps.
I used the largest Deckle Edge A2 die to cut the panel out and adhered it to an A2 card. I used a white gel pen to add more dots for snow and some details to the gifts. I added sparkles with a clear gel pen on the snowman and one gift. I added Star Dust Stickles to the tree tops.
I hope you've enjoyed my card and that you're able to snag this adorable set before it sells out! Don't forget, it's only available over at Simon Says Stamp HERE. Have a very wonderful, and crafty, weekend!
