Happy holidays {Lili of the Valley}

Hi, crafty friends. I have another card to share with you today using the Snowmen stamp set from Lili of the Valley. I love this set so much and I’m sure this won’t be my last time using it.

The design of these snowmen peeking out from behind something offers so many possibilities for fun card designs. For my previous card using one of these, I created a tri fold card with the snowman peeking out behind one of the flaps. This time, I have a snowman sticking out above the top of the card.

I colored my snowman with Copics, cut away everything below the line in the image and adhered him to the top of a quarter sheet of Stamper’s Select White cardstock from Papertrey Ink, before cutting around him.

I adhered my panel to a top fold white note card I created from Stamper’s Select White and cut off the bottom of the card, so that it’s 5 1/2″ tall including the snowman.

I glued on white snowflakes all across the front. I used the Snowflake Confetti Fancy die from Hero Arts and die CR1335 from Marianne Design to create the snowflakes. I like the white on white look. This adds a tiny bit of dimension and interest to the background.

I then used the Big Happy Holidays die from Mama Elephant to die cut five times from Blue Yonder cardstock from My Favorite Things, before stacking them and adhering my chunky die cut in the center of the card.

I stamped and white heat embossed Let’s be jolly! onto a strip of Enchanted Evening cardstock from Papertrey Ink. The sentiment is from the Christmas Greetings stamp set from Lili of the Valley. I added a couple of extra cardstock strips behind it for dimension and adhered it on top of the big die cut, before finishing off with some pearls from the Snowdrop mix from Little Things from Lucy’s Cards.

Small image, but as usual, I went overboard when coloring the snow, so there are quite a few Copics used anyway.

    • Thank you so much, Jan! The design of some of the images in this stamp set is perfect for this kind of off the edge stamping. It’s a fun, unexpected element, and I’m so here for it!
