Hugs for the Holidays

December 19, 2017 By funstampers 2 Comments

The holiday season is a beautiful time of year. But at times it can also be the most anxiety-ridden. Emotions run high with holiday to dos. Today, we are using our paper crafts to help keep your spirits high. Create these cards with us to gift as a reminder to a loved one.

 

Faith

Our Inspiration section of our 2017-2018 Inspiration Book & Catalog includes many uplifting sentiments for hope – including our featured favorite the Through the Storm Stamp Set.

Beautiful color is always good for the soul. Create a colorful background with Liquid Color and the Nature Collage Stencil. Transfer the color onto the cardstock with a dauber gradually blending the Liquid Colors.

Supply List: Through the Storm Stamp Set SS-0364| Journey Circles Die DI-0039| Nature Collage Stencil JM-0114| Limeade Splash Liquid Color IP-0133| Catalina Splash Liquid Color IP-0130| River Stone Liquid Color IP-0138| Black Licorice Ink Pad IP-0041| Dauber Dowel| Sweet Pear Cardstock| Whip Cream Cardstock CS-0040| Catalina Splash Cardstock| Limeade Splash Cardstock| Sweet Candy Drops AC-0275|

 

Hugs

Send hugs to a friend who just needs a little love.

First, let’s create the background. Give it a fun texture with Journey Modeling Paste. Mix Banana Cream Re-inker into a bit of your paste to give it color. Then add it to your cardstock panel with the Vintage Screen Stencil as a guide. If you are unfamiliar with the paste, check out our Try Day Friday video with Shannon Smith, FSJ’s Concept Designer, from last week here.

Give your card a beautiful image like blooms. Flower Swirls is one of our favorites. Stamp the Flower Swirls in Clear Pigment Ink on different cardstock colors and then emboss them in Journey White Embossing Powder.

Finally, add your sentiment. We have plenty to choose from of course. However, you can also create your own with the Outline Bet Stamp & Die Set.

Supply List: Flower Swirls Stamp Set SS-0454| Outline Bet Stamp Set SS-0488| Outline Bet Die Set DI-0350| Vintage Screen Stencil JM-0002| Journey Modeling Paste JM-0073| Banana Cream Reinker RI-0045| Clear Pigment Ink IP-0102| Journey White Embossing Powder IP-0098| Banana Cream Ink IP-0046| Orange Creamsicle Ink IP-0015| Journey Sequins Blue Skies AC-0113| Whip Cream Cardstock CS-0040| Banana Cream Cardstock CS-0087| Orange Creamsicle Cardstock CS-0024| Cool Pool Cardstock CS-0118| Spatula
