Mama Elephant Designer Series - Dashin Thru the Snow Slider
Hello again! I am delighted to be back on the Mama Elephant Blog today! I have a fun slider card to share with you so let's get started.
I began by stamping images from Dashin Thru the Snow, Animal Parade, Scene Builders, Birdie Wreath, and Toasty Friends Stamp Sets using alcohol friendly ink. I colored them using Copic Markers and cut them out using the coordinating dies.
For the scene building panels, I die cut two rectangles from white cardstock using the largest rectangle from Peek A Frame - Creative Cuts. I then used the sloped dies in the Landscape Trio - Creative Cuts to make the hills. I masked off the edges on all of the panels with Post It Tape to give the illusion of a frame. I then used Distress Oxide Inks in Speckled Egg, Broken China, Faded Jeans, and Chipped Sapphire to ink blend the sky. For the base of the snowy hills, I used Tumbled Glass Distress Ink. (I think it is easy to get a softer blend using the regular Distress Inks.)
To add a fun interactive element, I used the Straight Slider - Creative Cuts to create the slider track on the shorter hill. (I love watching the little bunny slide down the hill! I am pretty sure he is going to beat the sledding trio above him.) So fun!
I used a sentiment from the Dashin Thru the Snow Stamp Set and heat embossed it in white at the top of the design. As a finishing touch, I adhered iridescent star confetti across the sky.
I hope that you have enjoyed seeing my card and that it has inspired you to create something today! Thank you so much for stopping by!
