Happy Mix it up Monday everyone! I had some fun playing with the Lawn Fawn peppermint border dies a while ago. I just made a bunch of them for fun but didn’t have a plan. Then I walked past my craft room the other morning and this design hit me. I ran in and sketched it out on a sticky note and came back to create it later on.
Since my peppermint borders were already created at this point, I glued them to a piece of pink cardstock and used the Mama Elephant Postage Frame dies to cut it out. I discarded the outer frame and kept the inside. Then I cut a white postage frame and used washi tape to adhere the inside to the frame.
I stamped a fun sentiment from the Mama Elephant Everything Nice set and used the coordinating die to cut it out. Then I stamped the bunny in the Mama Elephant Holiday Huggers set and colored it with copic markers. After using the coordinating die to cut it out too I hooked his paws over the sentiment and glued them together.
I didn’t want a plain white card base so I drug my cilantro ink pad across a white card base for color and texture at the same time. Then I assembled everything with foam tape and squares. Gotta love that dimension!
For finishing touches today I added black glaze pen on the bunny’s eyes and glossy accents on his nose and the while parts of the Santa hat.
How is your holiday card stash coming along? I am definitely getting there quickly. Thank goodness because it’s about time to pop these babies in the mail!
