(holiday instrumental)
- [Kristina] Hi everyone, Kristina here.
Welcome to Day 15 of the Holiday Card Series for 2017.
Today I'm using a limited edition stamp set
from Lawn Fawn and Simon Says Stamp.
This is called Friends Forever, and what they've done
is they've taken some amazing images
from previous exclusive stamp sets from Lawn Fawn
that were sold with Simon
and they combined them into one stamp set.
So if you've ever been sad that you missed out
on the chance to set some Lawn Fawn stamp sets
that were exclusive,
some of those images could be in this stamp set
and it's a limited quantities type of situation,
so if you want any of these images
or if you want the stamp set,
you might want to grab it as soon as you can.
So I started out by cutting and scoring some cardstock.
The cardstock I'm using today is Desert Storm from Neenah,
and this is the 100-pound version,
and I just scored that to create a top-folding card.
I then stamped the little mouse image
and the greeting "Merry Christmouse,"
instead of "Christmas," and I stamped that
in some Chestnut Roan Colorbox chalk ink
and what I'm doing, my plan is, is that I'm going to
color that one mouse that's perfectly straight
right above the greeting,
I'm going to color that one as usual.
It's going to kind of a white mouse
with a red and green present,
and then the rest of the mice will be a brown shade.
So they're going to sort of kind of fade in background.
Be sure to use some pretty bold lines
to fade completely in the background,
but by coloring them in all brown shades,
they'll kind of fade to the back
and then that allows the one mouse that's colored completely
to sort of be the focal point.
So I'm sort of calling this focal-point coloring
because by using the same tones,
kind of monochromatic tones elsewhere on the card,
it really helps that focal point stand out.
So as far as coloring all of the brown mice,
I decided to do that with a blender pen from Tombow.
This is one of their dual-brush pens
and this is just the clear color,
and I'm picking up some of that
same Colorbox Chestnut Roan ink from a block.
I just smushed that inkpad on the block
and I'm just dabbing one little dot
on the tip of this marker
and then bringing it over to my project
and sort of smearing and smudging that color on.
Now when you do this, you want to be pretty stingy
with what color you pick up with your marker
'cause it will go a really long way if you're not careful,
and when you're done coloring, you can just scribble out
onto some paper and it sort of uses up all of that color
that's in the marker and then it just leaves you
with a nice clean marker.
The tip of the marker will be stained
but no color should be coming out.
So now I'm going on to the main focal point coloring
and I'm just using some
Faber-Castell Polychromos colored pencils for this
and I'm starting out by coloring the body of the mouse
in all white, and I want to make sure
there's a nice white coating, and then I'm gonna go in
and color in the pink on the ears of the mouse
and I'm also going to add a little bit of a pink cheek.
So I think it's always really cute
that the characters have a little bit of a blush;
it gives him a little bit more character.
So I'm gonna bring in that white over that pink area
just to blend it out a little bit.
Then I'm gonna bring in a red colored pencil
and I'm going to color the ribbon on the gift
and I'm going to make sure I do the bow at the top
and also the ribbon coming down.
And then switch to a nice lime-green shade
and I'm coloring the actual body of the gift, the box area,
and I'm just making sure that I get all of that on there.
So I'm actually gonna go back
and add a little bit of shading around the mouse
because it looked just a little bit too flat for me,
so I'm just bring in a really light-brown shade
and I'm going to add a little bit of shading
exactly where I had it on all of the brown mice,
so kind of like his backside and under the present
and then on the ears.
And I'll come back in with that white and go over that area,
and that kind of softens out that color.
So I'm pretty much done with the mouse image.
I'm just going to add a little bit of a shadow underneath,
and I'm using a brown instead of a black
which is what I would normally use for a shadow
just because there is quite a lot of brown going on.
So I have these three pens from Sakura
that they sent to me; they're all Gelly Roll.
They're actually three different sizes
of white Gelly Roll pens.
So this is really kind of fun, these are brand-new,
to have multiple sizes,
and you can get these at Simon Says Stamp
or at other places where you would buy Gelly Roll pens.
I really like that there are three different sizes.
I'm using the 0.5, which is the smallest fine point.
And then I took a sparkle pen,
this is a clear sparkle pen
from Crafter's Companion's Spectrum Noir,
just added it on the red.
And I'm gonna take off this Post-It tape.
I just put that up at the top
so that I could stamp off the corner area or at the fold
and it would not go into the back of the card.
I then took some white embroidery floss
and wrapped that around the card
just for a little bit of interest.
I thought it kind of mimicked the present idea
of all of these mice holding gifts.
This is the card for today.
This is actually part of a Blog Hop
celebrating the stamp set release.

inspiration blog posts.
Thanks for watching today,
and I will catch you guys on Wednesday
