InkyStamper: Rosie Snow Angel Ornament

Hello Paper Crafters and Merry Christmas Eve! I am sharing a fun interactive ornament featuring Snow Angel Stamp + Die Set from Inky Stamper!AND it's interactive thanks to the Like to Move It Dies and Clear Move Its Set. :) 

**I receive products from InkyStamper and Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® for use in my projects. The opinions are completely my own based on my experience and doing so I can share what I personally love to use.**


Creating the Rosie Snow Angel

Stamp Rose Snow Angel twice on white cardstock. In the first stamped image I die-cut Rosie out with its matching die. 

For the second one, I only inked the snow angel part so you can see a faint Rosie in that image. I did this on purpose so that I can place Rosie precisely. Then I cut a circle around it - think snowball.

The vellum was cut from a 3-inch circle die. This will be the background.


Prep the Ornament

Pour a good amount of the Dual Tip Glue Pen into a plastic ornament. Spread the glue on one side by turning the ornament back 'n forth to cover. Next, add the mica flakes into the ornament and apply it the same way. Pour out the excess and let dry.


Making Snowballs

On the edge of the vellum circle, apply Dual Tip Glue Pen all the way around it. Then sprinkle the mica flakes to cover the glue. Tap the circle to take off any excess mica. Adhere the circle with the E-Z Runner Permanent Fine to the front of the ornament. 


Die-cut the round shape from the Like to Move It Dies in the center of the stamped white cardstock circle. Then add Crafty Foam Tape on the back. Snap in a Clear Move It before adhering to the circle to the ornament. Secure Rosie where the Clear Move It is with an Adhesive Dot Medium to finish the front of the ornament.

InkyStamper: Snowman Mixed Media ATC Card

Hello Paper Crafters! I am sharing a cardmaking idea today featuring the NEW Snowman Stamp and Die Set from Inky Stamper. Do you create ATC (Artist Trading Cards)? This snowman design was so cute that I was inspired to make a card around a mixed media ATC design in my head. Let me share with you my idea.

**I receive products from InkyStamper and Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® for use in my projects. The opinions are completely my own based on my experience and doing so I can share what I personally love to use.**



Making the ATC Background

I used a piece of 2.5 x 3.5-inch mixed media paper to create my ATC. The background was colored with three Gelatos and then blended with a baby wipe. Keep layering colors until you get the desired look. Let dry.


Next, stencil with a dotted pattern stencil and molding paste - just around the top like snowflakes falling. Set aside to dry. Let's work on stamping.


Stamping the Snowman

Stamp the Snowman from the Snowman Stamp and Die Set out of white cardstock and cut with its matching die.

Color the Snowman with a combination of Gelatos and watercolor pencils.


Stamp the snowflake with black ink randomly on the ATC. Designer's Note: Using the snowman die cut as a guide, it would help how to figure out where to stamp the snowflake. Adhere the snowman die cut with the E-Z Runner Ultra Strong. 


Layering Up and Final Assemble

After I created a top-fold A2 size purple card base, it was embossed with a dot design embossing folder. It kind of matches my dot stencil. LOL! The ATC needed to be matted so I cut a piece of white cardstock to 3 x 4-inch. Center and lift it onto the embossed card base with leftover scraps of 3D Foam Creative Sheets.


Finally, I added my Snowman Mixed Media ATC on top of the layered card base. If the recipient wanted to take out the ATC, it won't be a problem because I used Adhesive Dots Large Repositionable! You can take it off and on many times without damage to your ATC. Clever, no? LOL!


I hope you enjoyed this card. If you create ATCs, try this idea to frame out your art and give it to someone special!
