Freezin' FunRooted In NatureWarm & Toasty

Sending Christmas Cheer (Warm & Toasty / Rooted In Nature)

Hi everyone, don’t you love it when you come across a stamp set which is both super cute but which can be used in a variety of ways.  The Warm & Toasty stamp set immediately made it on to my “must-have” list because of the adorable critters. As I looked at the images, I realised with a few little changes I could make the polar bear (or Eskimo Bear as my partner has now dubbed it) look like he was dancing.  I had to give it a go and I love the outcome!

In order to achieve this look, I placed some removable tape over his skates (you could also use a post-it note) before inking the stamp.  If you look carefully, you can see a hint of where the skates should be as I didn’t quite cover enough of the image.  I decided to leave it though – they could be spikes so he doesn’t slip when he is dancing. haha

After stamping the image, I draw an iceberg (in the style of the stamps from Freezin’ Fun) so it looked like he was standing on it.  Next up was to finish setting the scene.  The trees from the Rooted In Nature were perfect to create a forest behind him.  I used Stampin’ Blends to finish colouring the images.  The little music notes came from another stamp in the set.

Below you can see the image of the stamp set I used.  As you can see, by changing the orientation, masking some of the image, and adding movement marks, the bear has a different look and feel.

Warm & Toasty…

 

Here’s the card…

 

I didn’t really want to go ultra-Christmassy with this card, so I added a dotted patterned paper from the Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper pack.  It’s a gorgeous blend of the Mossy Meadow (background) and Pear Pizzaz (dots) colours. I love it!

Isn’t the bear such a darling image?!  I cannot wait to create more cards with it.  Do you have this set?  Is it now on your wish-list too?

Freezin' Fun

Create a cute snow scene with the Freezin’ Fun stamp set

by Kylie
written by Kylie

Hi everyone, one of my most favourite cards to make is a scene card – especially with super cute critters.  The Freezin’ Fun bundle just jumped out at me from the August to December 2020 Mini Catalogue.  I’m actually surprised it has taken me so long to craft with it.  You will LOVE this stamp set.  While we may be heading to warmer weather, there is *always* a time for wintery penguins, seals, rabbits and raccoons.

I stamped a lot of all of the different images before colouring them with Stampin’ Blends.  To give the penguins a little more interest, I paper pieced their hats and scarves.  All you need to do is stamp the image on patterned paper and then fussy cut out the parts you want to use.  I adhered the first one down with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.  That was a little messy for me so for the other penguins, I adhered some of the Adhesive Sheets to the patterned paper before I began.  This made it SO much easier!  Seriously, the Adhesive Sheets are a must for any crafter!

The sky was coloured using the Sponge Brayer.  You could always use Sponge Daubers or Stamping Sponges but for a larger space, the Brayer made short work of colouring it.  I used the Light Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends marker to add shadows but it was way too dark for the look I was trying to achieve.  The Colour Lifter certainly helped to soften this colour.

Here’s the card…

If you were wondering, there was supposed to be a sentiment strip on this card.  I had stamped it and had it ready but when it came time to attach it, I decided the card didn’t need it.  Not every card needs to have a sentiment on the outside.  I hope you like this card.  I cannot wait to use the Freezin’ Fun bundle again!
