Ice Princess

 Hello crafty friends, today I am back to share some D.T inspiration for the Paper Nest Dolls.

Today I am taking a break from Christmas cards as I had a special request from a little person who is turning 7 this month. She was having a Frozen theme birthday party so the image I have chosen to use is called Ice Princess.

If you have been following my work for a while you would know that I have used this adorable image in the past on a card with other Fairytale Princesses, (you will find the original post here), & on a Snowdome project, (for the original post here).

I started with a 6x6 base and put down some glitter cardstock. I then place an embossed sheet of white brushed cardstock. You would have seen this in my last post. I finished off my Winter theme with a shaker on my card. Lastly I glued some flowers to embellish & placed my image on top of some foam squares.

Copics:

Hair: T1, T3, T5

Skin: E0000, E000, E00, E11, E13, R20

Clothes:B0000, B000, B00, B01, B02, B04

Snowman: BG000, B60, C0, C5, C6, Y32, YR15

Although I have created a birthday card, this card could have easily been turned in a Christmas card with a few minor changes.

Ice Princess is available in rubber here & digital stamp here.

Supplies:
Stamp: Paper Nest Dolls - "Ice Princess

Paper: Spellbinders Brushed White Cardstock, AC Glitter Cardstock

Colouring Medium: Copics

Accessories: Accessories: Spellbinders Embossing Folder Flurry of  Snowflakes, Lawn Fawn Reverse Stitched Scalloped Squares Dies, WOC Flowers.

Fairytale Princesses

Hello everyone, I'm back today taking a break from Christmas cards to share a card and a fairytale.

Once upon a time there was a little girl who wished for her Aunt to make her a Princesses card with lots & lots of Princesses......

Her Aunt started out with an SVG file for the card base from Doodlebug Design and then cut it out with her Silhouette cutting machine. This card was too large to create as an open card, so a slim line card was attached on the back from the towers to the base to hold up the card.

The Aunt then chose 6 adorable princesses from the Paper Nest Dolls called "Princess and Apple", "Ice Princess", "Princess with Rose", "Princess with Glass Slipper", "Sleeping Princess" and "Polynesian Princess". She Then coloured her princesses up with Copics. Finally to embellish some die cut flowers & shaped sprinkles were added.

Ice Princess

 Hello everyone, I hope you are all well. Wow can you believe we are almost at the end of the year! Where has 2020 gone! Have you put your Christmas decorations up yet? Or do you wait till the beginning of December? I always start in November as I find things get so busy in December & before you know it they have to come down again. So I like to enjoy it a little longer :D

Do you make your own decorations?  With that in mind I would like to share with you my inspiration today for the Paper Nest Dolls using a non Christmas stamp called Ice Princess, you may remember this stamp from the previously released Princess Collection.

Last year I purchased some plastic domes from a craft store, got busy & put them aside. Well this year I decided it's time I did something with them. I coloured my image & fussy cut it. I created the background by cutting out X-press It paper into an oval shape using a die as close to size as to the dome as possible. I trimmed the sides & bottom till it fit into the insert of the dome. I coloured it with Copics, sprinkled gesso & added some star die cuts.

I then got 2 exact size small strips of cardstock of about 8cm & no wider than my image & glued them together. I did this to make  my stand thick & sturdy so it will hold my image upright. I scored about 3cm in at one end & 1cm in at the other. I folded it upwards. I glued my image to the front of the 3cm fold then the background to the front of the 1cm fold. This is to hold my image & background in place once it is inside the dome.

 Next I brushed some antistatic powder inside the dome, same as you use for embossing stamps. This is so the fake snow doesn't stick statically to the plastic, although as you can see from my pics some still did.

Then I inserted the images into my dome & added a small amount of hot glue to the back of the backdrop & stuck it to the rim of the dome. Lastly I carefully added the fake snow, closed it up & glued some more snowflake die cuts & embellished with ribbons, flowers & berries. 

I have to admit, taking a photo of this was a little bit difficult because of the reflections. It looks better in real life, I promise ;)

Ice Princess is available in rubber here & digital stamp here.

Supplies:

Stamp: Paper Nest Dolls - "Ice Princess"
Colouring: Medium Copics

Accessories: Plastic Dome Bauble, Spellbinders Charming Christmas Boughs & Petite Oval Dies, Fake Snow, Gesso, Magnolia Doohickey Dies Vol 23, Seam Binding, Berries & Flowers from my stash.
