Peaceful Panda

Today’s card can be used as a Christmas card, but it doesn’t have to be. It says nothing about Christmas specifically. And you could leave off the rhinestones for just plain old pine trees.

Here’s how I did it:

For the panda:

I used the Fox Builder Punch to cut the pieces from Basic Black, Whisper White, and Pink Pirouette. I used my Paper Snips to round the ears of the Basic Black head, and to cut off the ears from the Whisper White head. I glued the white on top of the black.

For the eyes, I punched two pieces of Basic Black card stock with the 1/2″ Circle Punch. I used my Paper Snips to cut each circle into a lop-sided oval. I glued these onto the head. I used the 1/8″ Circle Punch to cut two pieces of Whisper White card stock, then glued them to the black ovals. I used the small tip of a Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker to put dots on the white circles.

I glued the Pink Pirouette nose onto the face.

I cut the sides off the Whisper White body, making it skinner at the bottom wider at the top. I glued that onto the Basic Black body. Then I glued the head onto the top of the body.

For the trees:

I stamped the trees from the Foxy Friends stamp set in Garden Green, Old Olive, and Emerald Envy inks onto Whisper White card stock, then cut them with the Perfect Pines Framelits Dies.

For the card front:

I glued the trees to a piece of Garden Green card stock, then adhered the panda with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I then applied Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the trees, about 3 on each.

I glued this to a piece of Whisper White card stock, and glued that to the Garden Green card base.

For the sentiment:

I stamped the sentiment from the Stitched With Cheer stamp set in Garden Green ink onto a piece of Whisper White card stock, which I then glued to the inside of the card.
