Skull and Cross Buns - Christmas Joy, Peace and Noel

Hi guys

Back to share some more crafty makes using Skull and Cross Buns Rubber Stamps.

This card uses a set of stamps new for 2017 - Christmas Joy, Peace and Noel Neon Sign set of 3 rubber stamps.

There are also some other word stamps available in this fabulous neon sign style, including personalised ones!

I created a stamped background using all three stamps in different pastel colours, not the best photos of this one but my lamp made it very bright so I had to tweak it somewhat...


I used my MISTI (what on earth did I do without it?!) to line up this lettering and stamped in three shades of pigment ink.  It took a while but worked out ok.  I adhered this to the card base and trimmed it down.  I then die cut some white card with the landscape die and manipulated the sentiment stamp to follow the curve of the snow.  This was then adhered over the background and I added a touch of clear Wink of Stella to the trees.

This photo isn't quite so overexposed...


Materials used:

  • Stamps: Skull and Cross Buns - Christmas Joy, Peace Noel Neon Signs; Paula Pascual - Christmas Messages
  • Ink: Versa Color - Sea Foam, Petal Pink, Baby Blue; Versafine - Onyx Black
  • Die: Clearly Besotted - Tree Landscape Die
  • Accents: Wink of Stella - Clear

    Beautifully stamped BG and love how the curve of the die cut softens the boldness and clean lines of the words. Thanks for sharing and joining in at Uniko again! Hugs Bev x
