Marker Geek Monday: Christmas Stories are the Best Card & Copic Video

The storybook house stamps in our Kristin Farnsworth collection have a special place in my heart. As a reader, they just give me all of the warm and cosy feels. The Christmas one especially. It will soon be time to break out my copy of A Christmas Carol for a pre-Christmas read, along with some other old favourites, and of course I’ll be watching my favourite movie and TV adaptations. Do you have a favourite Christmas story?

Scenic Saturday with Amybella: Lunettes Christmas Girl

Hello, hello!

Amy here with a sweet Christmas card that takes me back to my crafting roots for this week’s Scenic Saturday. This joyful Lunettes Christmas Girl surrounded by all of her gifts, was stamped at a fun angle to make it look like she is popping into a holiday selfie. To help me come up with the perfect Christmas color palette for her, I decided to revisit my long neglected stash of pattern paper pads and let them help guide my choice of Copic markers.

Stamps Used:

Back in the day I started out as a scrapbooker and during that time I collected a lot of pretty pattern papers. When I transitioned over to stamping and card making I still relied heavily on those papers to create the design that housed the character stamps that I colored and fussy cut out. As my style evolved, I found myself using less and less papers and coloring entire backgrounds instead. Still, I think that using those papers as color palette inspiration while I was learning to color with my Copic markers was really beneficial in building my confidence in creating new color blends. So here I am letting this pretty Christmas stripe paper dictate all of the colors used on Lunettes Christmas Girl and her gifts, which creates a nice balance with the paper itself at the bottom of the card. The open space at the top of the card was the perfect place to add this large sentiment from the Festive Gnome Sentiment set stamped in red ink to coordinate back to the paper and the little holly embellishment that I added as a festive finishing touch to this sweet card.

Stay crafty my friends!
