ICE SKATING WITH HELLO BLUEBIRD

Hello Crafty Friends! Today, I am sharing another fun holiday card created with Hello Bluebird’s new release.

For this card, I used Holiday Littles featuring the tiny cute critters. To start, I ink blended A2 White Cardstock with Antique Linen, Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean, and Blueprint Sketch Distress Oxide Inks. I set the background aside.

I die cut the snow hills and ice using the Snowy Sky Die. I used the sky part of the die cut as a stencil. I placed the stencil over the top of the back panel and stencilled in the snow and stars with stencil paste. I set the background aside to dry.

I ink blended the edges of the snow hills with Blueprint Sketch and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Inks. I added some frost and glitter along the edges.

I diecut the frame and the birch trees using Winter Birch Scene out of White Cardstock. I coloured the edges of the winter birches with Copic Markers listed below.

I stamped and die cut the cute images and coloured them with Copic Markers listed below. Next, I mirror image stamped the penguins onto the “frozen pond” die cut. Please refer to my post “Mirror Images With Lawn Fawn” for details. I coloured the mirror images with Copic Markers. I ink blended the edges of the frozen pond with Blueprint Sketch and Tumbled Glass Distress Oxides. I ink blended over the penguins with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide. I drew lines across the pond with my white gel pen and added some glittery details.

I adhered the snowy hills and pond onto the back panel and glued the frame and birch trees over top. I adhered the critters with foam tape onto the card.

I die cut two sets of “Joyful” and ink blended one set with Lumberjack Distress Oxide. I adhered the coloured set on top of the white set for added depth.

Thank you so much for joining me today and I hope you like my card!
