For my cards this month, I used 2 stamp sets by Julie Nutting for Prima Marketing Inc. - Merry Nice and Warm Wishes . These are older stamp sets from 2014 but can still be found on Etsy and eBay.
- I stamped the Warm Wishes Prima girl on 2 pieces of white cardstock and then stamped the holly leaf next to each girl , using Memento Tuxedo Black ink .
- The girls and holly were colored with my COPICS.
- Using Memento Lady Bug and Cottage Ivy inks ,I stamped the sentiments.
- Naughty or Nice was stamped on a piece of white cardstock and then die-cut with a Pierced Chain Round Die.
- Happy Winter was stamped on a piece of tan patterned paper and then die-cut with a Stitched Rectangle Die.
- The scallop borders were die-cut from a Basic Grey 25th and Pine paper pad that I have been hoarding since 2013. I used a Tim Holtz Alterations Scallops die from Sizzix .
- I adhered a scalloped border to the top of each stamped panel . The die makes 2 borders - 1 with holes punched across the border and 1 without .
- I adhered the sentiments to each panel with foam tabs.
- Naughty or Nice was adhered to a Kraft card base and Happy Winter to a white card base.
I have many of these Prima girls and will be inking more of them up soon !! I hope they inspire you to get started on a few holiday cards .. For more creativity, take a look at Michael's and Lisa's cards at these links -
