Encircled Christmas card – Christmas Stampathon

It is Christmas Stampathon time again and the theme for February is cards and matching tags and as per the rules of the Stampathon we have to make multiples. I have used the gorgeous new stamp set called Encircled in Nature, available in my online shop.

Colours used in these cards and tags are:

 

To recreate the encircled Christmas card, you will need:

Balmy Blue card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Shaded Spruce card – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½”
Balmy Blue card – 3” by ½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Shaded Spruce card

I stamped the wreath image, from the Encircled in Nature stamp set in Pecan Pie ink onto the 5¼” by 3½” panel of basic white card.

The sentiment from the Sending Smiles stamp set was originally stamped onto the stamped and inked panel below the meadow grass, but I really didn’t like it, so Plan B………. the sentiment was stamped again in Memento Tuxedo black ink onto a piece of Flirty Flamingo card. I die cut it using a die from the Sending Dies and added it, on Dimensionals, over the wrongly stamped sentiment……….much better.

Basic Black card – 2½” by ½”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside

 

I randomly stamped three of the moths, from the Night of Flight stamp set, in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto the smallest panel of Basic White card.

 

Using Blending Brushes, brushed on Bubble Bath ink, followed by Lemon Lolly ink and finishing with Pool Party ink. The inked panel was glued to the Basic Black layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The Vellum panel was placed on top of the inked panel and held in place using a couple of Mini Glue Dots placed where the sentiment would hide them.

A length of Black & white Gingham Ribbon was wrapped around the panel and secured on the back with Tear ‘n Tape. The whole piece was then mounted onto the Pool Party card front on Dimensionals.

The sentiment, from the Earthen Textures stamp set was stamped in Versamark ink onto the piece of Basic Black card, covered with White Embossing Powder and heat set it using my Heat Tool. I trimmed it down and added it to the card front.
