Today’s cards were made for the June Christmas Stampathon where our theme is ‘Fun Folds’. I have used the adorable penguin from the Wild Bunch stamp set and the retired Beary Cute dsp.

The panel of Beary Christmas dsp was glued to the front of the Balmy Blue card base.

I mounted the sentiment, from the Reason to Celebrate stamp set onto my Stamp Positioner plate, inked it up with the Black Hybrid ink and stamped it onto the die cut label. I used the positioner in case I needed to stamp it multiple times. I then set it aside to dry which took quite a while.

Using the Barely Blush Blends Pens, I coloured in the larger flowers on my chosen piece of Artisan Sketched Garden dsp. The soft pastel colour looks dramatic against the black background.

The stems were stamped in the vase with Peaceful Pine ink and flowers added with Berry Burst ink. The sentiment was stamped with Peaceful Pine ink below the vase. The thin strip of Peaceful Pine card was then glued to the long side of the Cloud Cover triangle and the whole piece was then glued to the decorated panel.
The decorated piece was then glued to the Berry Burst layer before being mounted onto the card front on Dimensionals.
