Don't you just LOVE these Poppy stamps from the makers of Memory Box?! I think they're fabulous.
Here's a card I taught for one of my classes recently (sorry the picture isn't better):
Supplies: Memory Box patterned paper, shimmer card stock and stamps ("Sprinkles" B1158, Fred Frolic, 235C); Inks: Ranger Distress, Memento; Tsukineko Glue pad; Martha Stewart glitter; PrismaColor pencils; Copics; gems; ribbon; pearl; Nesties, Tim Holtz Ink Applicator tool.
Instructions:
- Print sentiment on computer printer and stamp image above.
- Cut out using Nestie - use Nestie as a mask and apply Ranger Distress ink using foam ink applicator tool.
- Color face with Copics, then color use PrismaColor pencils for the rest (use Gamsol to blend if desired). NOTE: the wax from the pencils isn't good for your Copics.
- Adhere pearl "buttons" to boy's coat.
- Stamp snowflakes with Tsukinek glue pad and immediately sprinkle with glitter; tamp down and remove excess by gently tapping card.
- Adhere gems in center of each snowflake.
- Cut patterened paper and card front and back using Nesties.
- Edge patterned paper shape with Ranger DIstress ink.
- Horizontally score card front about 1" from top. Apply adhesive above the score line and adhere to card back.
- Stack and adhere shaped panels to front of card.
- Cut (3) 3" ribbons, knot, and adhere to card with glue dot.
- Adhere pearl to top of ribbon knot.
Thanks for looking!
