Hello there crafty friend!
I'm back for Day 2 of the Falling for the Holidays 2024 {BYSHC} Linky Party with another cute holiday card! It was so much fun checking out the inspiration shared yesterday for the start of the Linky Party. So many wonderful cards! Today I'm sharing a card using a sweet digital stamp called Bunny & Guinea: Reindeer Ride from our lovely return Sponsor Rachelle Anne Miller Stamps AKA RAM Stamps.
When I create with digital stamps or digis, I always fill up a whole sheet with images and sentiments. So I printed this sweet digi off along with the cute bear from yesterday. I combined and resized all the images into a Word Document and printed them off. The sentiment actually came with the bunny and guinea pig but I cropped it and separated them. Because of this there was a tiny bit of the rein just over the sentiment and I covered that bit up with one of the red enamel dots {over the 'r' in Christmas}. I colored up the adorable bunny and guinea pig with my Copic markers and fussy cut them leaving a white border around the edges.
Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used:
Bunny: C00, C1, C2, R00, R20
Reindeer Antlers / Reins: E21, E23, E25
Antler Band: YG11, G24, G46, G00, G12
Guinea Pig: E21, E23, E25, R00, R20
Hat: C00, C2, R20, R14, R46
To create my background I used the awesome Fractured Card Layout Die Set from our wonderful Sponsor Newton's Nook Designs. I trimmed five pieces of pattern paper from the lovely Watercolor Winter {Paper Pack} from Unity Stamp Co. I secured them two at a time from the front of the die using washi tape and ran them through my Big Shot. I die cut a white card front measuring 4-1/4 x 5-1/2" using the die to get the white fractured piece. This also die cuts the center square and triangles which I'll save for a future project.
I adhered all my layers together using iCraft UltraBond Adhesive from Sponsor Therm O Web. And then adhered the fractured card front to a white A2 top fold card base. I added foam tape from our awesome Sponsor Therm O Web called iCraft 3D Foam Tape Jumbo Roll (white) to the back of the critters and sentiment and popped them up on the card. I then added the four red enamel dots from the Red & Green Foil Mirror Enamel Dots from our lovely Sponsor Gina Marie Designs to finish off the card.
Woohoo!! I'm so excited to have another card done for my stash! If you haven't already, stop by the Falling for the Holidays 2024 {BYSHC} Linky Party to check out all the wonderful Holiday inspiration being shared!! Have a fantastic day!

Inky Hugs,
Crystal
