YNS Challenge #156: Winter Wonderland

/

Time for a new challenge over at Your Next Stamp. So many options for ‘Winter Wonderland’ theme, like get started on 2021 Christmas cards or perhaps stocking up on winter time birthday cards. In my case I choose to create some more general theme winter cards that can be ready at a moments notice for any occasion. Details on challenge can be found near the end of this post.

Also make sure to stop by the YNS Challenge Post and check out the rest of the DT projects as well!

Since I have been making quite a few slim line cards lately, I am left with pieces of white card stock that make the perfect 4”x4” card base. So to use up these left over pieces of card stock I have a feeling I will be making lots of these very cute 4”x4” cards.

Get the Look:

  • On a 4” square piece of Neenah card stock die cut out the shaped centre, in this case a square and circle for the front card panel.

  • Choose sentiment and stamp onto front card panel. Stamp and colour your critter.

  • On blue card stock cut out the same circle/square shaped die for the sky pieces.

  • Use a favourite die with a wintery pattern to create a pattern on the blue card stock. I used the Tickle Breeze from SSS to create the lines and snow in the background.

  • Die cut out mountains and hill sides to overlay on the blue card stock.

  • Adhere all of the die cut pieces to a 4” square card base using one of following options.

    • Option 1: Use circle/square die to cut the mountains and hills, so they can be inlayed. Adhere the front panel to card base and inlay all the die cut pieces into shape opening.

    • Option 2: Using front panel as a guide lay the sky and other scenery pieces down. Adhere the die cut pieces down and then add the front panel overtop to overlap the hills and mountains.

  • Add some fun frosty snow to the snowy peaks and let dry before positioning and adhering the cut out/die cut coloured image with foam tape.
