When I needed to create a card for a special birthday recently, a couple of gnome stamps came to mind immediately.
Beer Gnomes Birthday Card
I used a slimline die to create a fun strip across the centre of a larger UK A5 size card (approx 8.3″x5.8″). This is another fun way you can get more use out of those slimline dies that are so popular right now.
Stamps Used: Beer Gnomes, Two Gnomes and a Keg
Dies Used: Whimsy Slimline Film Strip, MFT Dienamics Numbers, Memory Box Stars
Paper Used: Prima Marketing Inc
I stamped the image on my favourite Make it Colour Blending Card before colouring with Copic Markers. I also used some coloured pencil to deepen some of the shadows.
I didn’t film the colouring process on this occasion, but I do already have a couple of videos for the gnome stamps.
