Regal Reindeer and Grove Dies Christmas Card and Video Tutorial
For Christmas in July we are taking a look at pairing Regal Reindeer and Grassy Grove Dies to make this beautiful Christmas Card. In the video I show you how to use Stampin’ Blends/alcohol inks to color the reindeer and rabbit. We then create a glittery forest for the reindeer.
Grab your alcohol inks and glitter and come create with me. I hope you enjoyed this card as much as I enjoyed making and sharing it with you.
Card Directions for Regal Reindeer and Grassy Grove Dies
- Cut all papers as listed under Cardstock. Die cut out the Grove Die on Basic White Thick Cardstock.
- With a sponge cover 1/2 of the grove die cut with glue. Poor glitter over the wet glue. Next, sponge glue over the rest of the die cut and add glitter to it. Set aside to dry. Once completely die, lightly run fingers over it to remove any loose glitter.
- Stamp the reindeer and rabbit onto White Cardstock in Memento Black Ink. Color both critters as shown in the video. Stampin’ Blend colors used at listed below. Die cut both animals out with corresponding dies.
- Using One Horse Open Sleigh designer series paper, adhere to card front with favorite adhesive.
- Next, adhere glitter forest grove to card to card front with Dimensionals. Both sizes are needed.
- The reindeer is adhere with Glue Dots under the glitter grove of trees.
- Heat Emboss the greeting from the Bright Glow stamp set on Misty Moonlight Cardstock with white Embossing Powder. Adhere to card front with Mini-Dimensionals.
- Adhere the rabbit either next to greeting or in the trees with a Mini-Dimensional.
- Complete the inside by stamping the saying in Misty Moonlight on White Cardstock. Add a strip of the leftover designer series paper to the bottom on the White Cardstock. Adhere to inside.
- Because of all the glitter I elected to go with a larger envelope. Stamp half of the reindeer to the front bottom left corner in Crumb Cake Ink. On the envelope flap, stamp a Christmas saying in Shaded Spruce Ink.
Happy Stamping!
