Julie said, “A fun little Christmas card with a couple of adorable little reindeer and stenciled holly background. “I love using kraft colored paper with Prismas or Copics to change up the vibe of my projects. The color of the paper was perfect for these adorable reindeer, so I didn’t have to add much color to them.” We love using the Color Fuse Inks along with our variety of stencils, for smooth and bright backgrounds. Check out these simple steps to recreate this quick and easy card.
How to make this card:
- I wanted to use this wonderful 3 part holly stencil. Then the idea came to me to try it on kraft. It looked good so that’s the direction I went. I used a couple of reds, a couple of greens & the darkest grey for the holly.
- The reindeer were also done on kraft. I used a combination of a few Copics & a few Prismacolor pencils to color them in, then die cut them w/ their coordinating dies.
- I used a bunch of rectangle dies to make the series of frames & center for my greeting.
- The frame, the center & the reindeer were all popped up to give it some dimension.
