Hello crafty friends!
It’s Ceal here. Today I am sharing a postage collage Christmas card with you.

Skill: Intermediate
Time: 45 minutes

Directions:

Gather your supplies. To make this card you will need a Postage Collage Layering Stencil, a snowflake cover plate die, a snowflake cluster background die and some inks. The inks I used are listed at the bottom of the tutorial.

Step 1:
Cut out a postcard using a postage die. Ink blend VersaFine Clair Nocturne and VersaFine Clair Fallen Leaves for the eyes, mouth and arms on the first stencil.

Step 2:
Ink blend VersaFine Clair Lilac Bloom over the bottom portion of the first stencil.

Step 3:
Ink blend VersaFine Clair Bal Blue over the middle portion of the first stencil.

Step 4:
Ink blend VersaFine Clair Warm Breeze over the top portion of the first stencil.

Step 5:
Ink blend VersaFine Clair summertime over the noses and VersaFine Clair Nocturne over the buttons on the second stencil.

Step 6:
Cut apart the postage die to get individual stamps. Choose which ones you want to use on your project and save the rest.

Step 7:
Cut out a background panel using the snowflake cover die.

Step 8:
Cut the snowflake cluster out of glitter paper.

Step 9:
Stamp and emboss the sentiment, then put all the pieces together to create the card.
