Special Guest - Julee Tilman

Hello, Whimsy friends!
Today we welcome the lovely Julee Tilman back to the blog.
Hi crafty friends! I'm super excited to be back for another post as a Special Guest at Whimsy Stamps. I'm a huge fan of their adorable gnomes, so I just had to play with the Gnome For the Holidays and Gnome for Christmas stamp sets.



I started by coloring up the Santa hat and Christmas lights gnomes from Gnome for the Holidays with Copic colors in a traditional Christmas color combo.  I then die cut them with the coordinating Gnome for the Holidays Outline Dies, die cutting the Santa one a couple more times to layer up for dimension.

  

I grabbed some designer paper scraps from my Christmas stash and went to work creating some simple layouts for these sweet little gnomes. I'm usually a more is more girl, but I try to keep Christmas cards pretty tame so they don't cost a fortune to mail! Santa got a buffalo plaid print to ground him, then the sentiment stamped on a die cut circle up above. I accented with sequins and rhinestones to finish off this sweet card.


For the Christmas lights gnome, I decided to make a mini slimline card with a gift card pocket. I created some easy layers and a pocket that would fit a mini Starbucks gift card, then added the darling gnome to the front of it. The sentiment is from the Gnome for Christmas set, and I stamped it onto a die cut  from the fabulous Antique ATC Frames Die Set. My finished card size is 3.5 x 6".
 


My final card for today uses the adorable elf gnome from Gnome for Christmas. I die cut him with the coordinating Gnome for Christmas Outline Dies, cutting a few more die cuts two layer up for dimension.  Next I used the Antique ATC Frames Die Set to cut a sentiment panel from white cardstock and a mat from patterned paper.  I used the Twinkle Stencil with a light green ink to add a little interest to the sentiment panel, then embossed the holly jolly sentiment in a darker green ink. A few layers of paper and some rhinestones and this card was finished.

      


Thank you for stopping by today! I am so honored to have been a special guest and it was such a treat creating with all their wonderful products. If you love gnomes as much as I do, you don't want to miss their brand new Gnome Warm Wishes stamp set. It's the next thing on my gigantic wishlist!

Thank you, Julee, for this adorable inspiration!
