Welcome back to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity where Lost Coast Designs and Carmen's Veranda collide to bring you twice the inspiration and double the fun!
Greetings! You've got Kathi here to share a Christmas card created for the Christmas in July Challenge 199 with Megan's Christmas Bird Rubber Stamp by Lost Coast Designs
Use Memento ink to stamp Megan's Christmas Bird Rubber Stamp by Lost Coast Designs onto the center of a white cardstock panel.
Color the bird, branch, and Christmas lights with Copic markers. Use a fine-line green pen to color the light's wire. Add white highlights to the bulbs with a white gel pen and glittery highlights to the centers of the snowflakes with a clear glitter gel pen.
Position a square cutting die onto the image panel and secure with low-tack tape. Run the die/cardstock combination through your die-cut machine to cut the image panel. Keep the image panel square die-cut in the die by flipping the cardstock/die combination over and adding low-tack tape to cover the back of the die and connect the outside and inside of the image panel.
Flip the image panel/die-cut combo back over so that the image and die are facing upwards. Brush pearlescent blue ink over the die onto the image panel, going heavily around the edges. This will leave a white edge around the square.
Apply sparkly glitter glue onto the edges of the square and set aside to dry, preferably overnight so that you aren't tempted to touch the glue and make a mess.
Cut a 5¾" square of blue snowflake patterned paper, edge with a black marker, adhere the image panel die-cut, and apply the "Merry Christmas" rub-on as shown. Adhere the card front to a 6" square black card.
You still have a tiny bit of time to join Challenge 199 for a chance to win Lo$t Coa$t Ca$h!
