Step By Step Tutorial: House Mouse Tree-mendous Christmas Collection Christmas Card

Hello, crafty friends! Brenda Noelke here from My PaperCut Creations! I’m super excited to be back on the Spellbinders blog today sharing this step-by-step tutorial featuring the Tree-mendous Christmas Stamp Set from the House Mouse Tree-mendous Collection! STEP BY STEP TUTORIAL: HOUSE MOUSE TREE-MENDOUS CHRISTMAS COLLECTION CHRISTMAS CARD, RSC-059,E3D-042,S5-131,S5-635 These sweet mice are decking the halls, and each of the stamps in the collection showcases the House Mouse mice involved in holiday activities!! Let’s get started!! STEP BY STEP TUTORIAL: HOUSE MOUSE TREE-MENDOUS CHRISTMAS COLLECTION CHRISTMAS CARD, RSC-059,E3D-042,S5-131,S5-635 I started by stamping the image in the Tree-mendous Christmas Stamp Set onto an A2 panel of Neenah Solar White 80 lb. cardstock with Copic-friendly black ink using my MISTI. Be sure to remove the foam pad or grip mat from the MISTI before stamping, as the foam is on the cling stamp. STEP BY STEP TUTORIAL: HOUSE MOUSE TREE-MENDOUS CHRISTMAS COLLECTION CHRISTMAS CARD, RSC-059,E3D-042,S5-131,S5-635 I used Copic markers to color the sweet scene using the following colors: N9, N7, N5, E29, E27, E25, E23, E59, E57, E55, E53, W9, W7, W5, YR00, E51, E50, G28, G16, G14, YG05, YR24, Y17, Y08, Y02, R59, R37, R35, R29, R43, BV000, RV000, B000, B60, B000, R20. STEP BY STEP TUTORIAL: HOUSE MOUSE TREE-MENDOUS CHRISTMAS COLLECTION CHRISTMAS CARD, RSC-059,E3D-042,S5-131,S5-635 Next, I positioned the second-largest stitched rectangle die in the Nested Postage Labels & Tag Die Set and taped it in place with the Best Ever Craft Tape. STEP BY STEP TUTORIAL: HOUSE MOUSE TREE-MENDOUS CHRISTMAS COLLECTION CHRISTMAS CARD, RSC-059,E3D-042,S5-131,S5-635 It was die-cut using the Platinum SIX Machine with Universal Plate System using the following plates (bottom to top): A, B, C, stamped image, C. STEP BY STEP TUTORIAL: HOUSE MOUSE TREE-MENDOUS CHRISTMAS COLLECTION CHRISTMAS CARD, RSC-059,E3D-042,S5-131,S5-635 I used the third-largest die in the A2 Matting Basics A Card Creator Die Set to die-cut a rectangle that was a tiny bit larger than the scene rectangle from the Pearl Metallic cardstock in the Ruby Treasured Cardstock Pack. I used the same stitched rectangle die that I cut the scene from to cut a rectangle from a white Pop-Up Die Cutting Foam Sheet. (I love dimension on my cards, but you could also skip this step.) STEP BY STEP TUTORIAL: HOUSE MOUSE TREE-MENDOUS CHRISTMAS COLLECTION CHRISTMAS CARD, RSC-059,E3D-042,S5-131,S5-635 The largest die in the A2 Matting Basics A Card Creator Die Set was cut from a panel of 80 lb. Neenah Solar White cardstock. STEP BY STEP TUTORIAL: HOUSE MOUSE TREE-MENDOUS CHRISTMAS COLLECTION CHRISTMAS CARD, RSC-059,E3D-042,S5-131,S5-635 That panel was embossed with the Flurry of Snowflakes 3D Embossing Folder using the following plates (bottom to top): A, embossing folder, D. STEP BY STEP TUTORIAL: HOUSE MOUSE TREE-MENDOUS CHRISTMAS COLLECTION CHRISTMAS CARD, RSC-059,E3D-042,S5-131,S5-635 The sentiment, also from the Tree-mendous Christmas Stamp Set, was positioned onto the scene panel in the MISTI and stamped with VersaFine Clair Nocturne Ink. Be sure to let the ink dry completely or heat it to avoid smearing. Piment ink stays wet a bit longer. STEP BY STEP TUTORIAL: HOUSE MOUSE TREE-MENDOUS CHRISTMAS COLLECTION CHRISTMAS CARD, RSC-059,E3D-042,S5-131,S5-635 All the rectangle layers were stacked and adhered together using liquid glue, then adhered to an A2 panel of Pomegranate cardstock. The foam is between the smaller red rectangle and the snowflake embossed layer. STEP BY STEP TUTORIAL: HOUSE MOUSE TREE-MENDOUS CHRISTMAS COLLECTION CHRISTMAS CARD, RSC-059,E3D-042,S5-131,S5-635 I added snowfall by adding dots to the image using a white gel pen. Make sure to add the dots over the colored image, since some of the snow would be falling in front of your mice and tree. STEP BY STEP TUTORIAL: HOUSE MOUSE TREE-MENDOUS CHRISTMAS COLLECTION CHRISTMAS CARD, RSC-059,E3D-042,S5-131,S5-635 To finish, add a Merry Moments Dimensional Snowflake and a Spectrum AB Color Essential Gem to fill the upper, left area of the scene and repeat the snowflake theme. Be sure to check out the entire House Mouse Tree-mendous Collection! Each one is cuter than the next! Thanks so much for stopping by!!
