The Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge for November 18, 2020 was "Christmas".
I received a new set of Honey Bee Stamps stamp sets, dies and stencils on Tuesday and decided to try out a couple of them. I didn't have much more than a basic plan to stamp, color and die cut images and let the card evolve:
I received a new set of Honey Bee Stamps stamp sets, dies and stencils on Tuesday and decided to try out a couple of them. I didn't have much more than a basic plan to stamp, color and die cut images and let the card evolve:
The stamps and dies were too large for an A2 card so I made a 5 x 7 card instead.
I stamped the truck image and license plate from one set and the tree, garland and packages from a second on white layering-weight card stock and die cut with the coordinating dies (I had done four packages but one went walk-about as I was combating a spill of water on my desk top...). I fussy cut the truck to remove the white halo. I also die-cut (and then altered to fit) a bumper, rear view mirrors and tires from silver and black cardstock scraps, respectively.
After coloring the truck, trees and packages with Altenew Artist Markers, I assembled the card. I cut a slit in the truck bed and inserted tree and packages in the slit; glued the bumper mirrors and ties on the truck and adhered the completed image to a kraft card base. I heat embossed the sentiment in white and added two crimson gem for taillights
