Hey everyone! I'm working on catching up on editing and all the things I put on the back burner while I went through the whole not seeing, getting new glasses etc etc. This card and video being one of those things:
For the first time in a while I made an A2 sized card! I've been SO obsessed with slimline cards the last few months (and I'll still make a bunch of those) but it's nice to jump back and forth between the 2 sizes.
For this card and envelope I used the Simon Says Stamp Chillin' Gnomes stamp and die set. This set is SO cute and I set it aside when it was released as it sold out instantly and then life got in the way. This gnomie eating watermelon is adorable so I designed the card around him.
I stamped the gnome and the mushroom from the Chillin' Gnomies set onto Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 80lb card stock with Simon's Intense Black ink then coloured them in with Copic markers. I used one of the coordinating wafer dies to die cut the gnome and left the mushroom on it's panel as part of the background.
I die cut green card stock with the Eucalyptus Leaves wafer die, and used the Script Thanks wafer die for part of the sentiment. I white heat embossed the "gnomie!" from the Chillin' Gnomes set to finish it off.
I finished off the inside of the card by stamping the gnome with Antique Linen Distress Oxide ink and adding another white heat embossed sentiment. I heat embossed another sentiment from the set onto the envelope and then stamped the gnome with Schoolhouse Red ink and that was it!
