There's No Place Like Gnome

Hi

Exciting times today, it's the 14TH OCTOBER, 2019 and that means the Launch of the new Colourific Stamps.  I was excited to get the new stamps and have been having a real good play with them.  I have chosen to use the new A5 Gnomes as my first DT sample.  Pop on over to Colourific to see the whole range of wonderful new Stamps. 



Materials Used:

A5 Gnomes
A5 Peace and Joy
Copic Markers Blue, Red and Green shades
8 x 8 Kraft Card Blank
7.75 x 7.75 Red Mat
7.5 x 7.5 Christmas Pattern paper
7 x 7 Red mat
6.75 x 6.75 White mat
Red Gems
Glitter Glue
Blue Distress Ink Pad
Tree Stamp from my stash


  • Layer the 7.75x7.75 mat onto the Kraft Card, followed by the 7.5 x 7.5                          Patterned Christmas Paper.      
  • Using Foam pads mat the 7 x 7 Red mat onto the Christmas Paper layer.
  • Using a piece of torn copy paper and the distress ink, make a light snowy hill                 background and sky.
  • Stamped the Gnome on Masking Paper and cut it out.  Stamped the centre Gnome first, then placed the mask over it and stamped the Gnomes either side.
  • Coloured the first Gnome and used alternate colours on the other 2 Gnomes.
  • Used the Branch from the Peace and Joy set and stamped it in various colours            along the top corner of the card.
  • Masked off the Gnomes again and lightly stamped some trees behind so they looked in the distance.
  • Added some glitter glue to the Gnomes Beards and the Pompoms on their hats.
  • Stamped and embossed a Sentiment, matted it onto some scrap red card and attached it with foam pads     
  • Finished off with some red gems on the branches.

Thank you to everyone for looking.  Remember to pop over to the Colourific Stamps website for a look at all the new stamps.
