A big congrats to Sherri, the newest Featured Stamper (FS768) on Splitcoast! She has a wonderful gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the pair of gnomes & most of the colors, but used different images & dies, turned mine horizontal & made it a Christmas card.

For my card, after coloring & die cutting the gnomes & presents, & also cut some fun foam using the same dies to pop them up. The Happy die cut word was layered twice & the red shadow was also backed w/ fun foam. I put an extra piece of foam behind the sign the gnome on the left is holding.

Here are the Copics I used:

A big congrats to Dagmar, the newest Featured Stamper (FS766) on Splitcoast! She has a wonderful gallery & uses so many great techniques. I chose THIS card to case. I kept the winter scene inside the masked shape but used different images & dies & made my scene a little bigger.

For my scenic Christmas card, I die cut the large scallop circle & used the reverse mask to cover all but the area where the scene would be. I used a curved mask to cover the sky area & sponged in the water, then used the reverse part to mask the water & sponged in the sky, leaving a white area between the two. I cut a bunch of masks for the rocks, since mine were all individual stamps, & stamped in the rocks. I covered the rocks & water & stamped the different size trees along the rocks. I used the scallop shaped mask to cover the scene, then stamped the snowflakes w/ white ink & embossed w/ holographic powder (it’s a little hard to see). A white Posca pen was used to add ‘snow’ dots to the sponged scene & also a little stickles for sparkle.

For the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge(IC827), we’re going to Anne of Green Gables where I found THIS pretty snow globe.


For my card, I die cut the globe & little houses out of white, the little trees out of dk green & the globe stand, holly leaves & a larger circle out of metallic green, & the berries out of red glitter paper. I used markers to color the roofs & windows of the little houses then attached them to the globe. I used a random dot bg to stamp snow w/ white ink all over the globe then embossed it w/ a holographic powder. After everything was put together, I added a little stickles, as well.
