Gnome for the Holidays

I don't know about you, but with all the stressed and changes of this year, I sure am looking forward to the holidays. I'm getting an early start on all my holiday paper crafting. Here's a look at two of my recently created cards. These Holiday Gnomes are just toooooooo cuuuuuuuute. I can hardly stand it. I smile every time I look at them. This layout is so easy to replicate with a piece of DSP for the background and 3 coordinating strips of DSP. And the Layering Oval Dies are just perfect for showing off these cute holiday gnomes.

I love the Gnome for the Holiday Stamp Set combined with the Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper. I used coordinating Stampin' Blends to color. You can find cutting dimensions and supplies below the photos.

I think Ms. Gnome is excited to start her holiday decorating, baking, and stamping, of course. Isn't she cute with that little snicker on her face.

I used a Sponge Dauber and Daffodil Delight ink pad to "illuminate" the star.

I often times like to make my inside layer match the card front layer. The Whisper White card stock on the inside of my card measures 3 3/4" x 5 1/2", the same size as my DSP on the front of the card.Gnome for the Holidays Stamp Set & Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up!
