Hello! Christmas is almost here! With the hustle and bustle of the season, thank you for taking time to visit the blog.
Today's 3D project used a stamp from the Blank Page Muse Country Vintage Christmas Rubber Art Stamps Sheet. Just to warn you, today's post is photo-filled to show the steps in creating this ornament. So as early as now, I would like to thank you for your time.
The stamp set comes as a sheet of several rubber stamp images.
I cut off the snow globe stamp image that I used for this card.
I used a glue stick to temporarily adhere the rubber stamp to my stamping tool.
I stamped the snow globe on a scrap piece of paper to create a template. A template guides me when I use different elements on my project. It also helps me with placement when it is time to put the elements of the project together.
The template was very useful in the sizing and placement of the gold cardstock. All I need to do is position the gold cardstock over the base of the snow globe, selectively ink the rubber stamp, then stamp the base on the gold cardstock. I used Versamark ink in stamping.
I heat set the embossing powder until it is melted.
I fussy cut the snow globe base after the embossing.
I stamped the snowman using a light dye ink since I will be doing a no line coloring.
I colored the snow man with alcohol markers.
I added details to the coloring with color pencils. I die cut the snowman using a circle die.
I added black enamel accents to the eyes and the buttons.
I ink blended a light blue ink on the background.
Using a glue pen, I added glue to the snow on the backdrop of the snow man. I poured puffy embossing powder to the glue, then heat set it.
For the shaker portion of the snow globe, I die cut a circle frame on light blue cardstock. I used the same circle die I used to cut the snowman and the next size down circle die. I adhered an acetate to the back of this frame.
I used the template as a guide to put the snow globe together adhering the acetate frame to the snow globe base.
I adhered skinny strips of foam tape to the back of the snow globe. I created a well around the acetate.
I poured tiny sequins on the acetate, inside the well.
After I removed the release paper from the foam adhesive, I added liquid glue to the foam to secure the shaker.
I sealed the shaker with the colored snowman die cut.
I stamped the snowman snow globe on a piece of white cardstock. I partially die cut the circle portion of the snow globe with the same circle die I used earlier. I fussy cut the base. This will be the backing of the shaker ornament.
I die cut a tab on gold cardstock to have a place to thread a string to and make this snow globe into an ornament.
I adhered the shaker ornament to the backing. I threaded a blue string through the hole. Now, this snow globe is ready to be hang on the Christmas tree.
I hope you like today's project.
