It’s time for the November 2020 IRBH! This month’s theme is Christmas. What could be more fun than playing in the snow with friends during the holidays? I used the Freezin’ Fun Bundle (Freezin’ Fun stamp set and Freezin’ Friends Dies) to create a fun scene on today’s Slimline card. 

Be sure to hop around to all the stops. There’s a whole lot of talent in this group, and you don’t want to miss any of the great projects they’ve created for you today!

Here’s what I did:

Cut and scored with my paper trimmer:

• Pool Party card stock (CS) cut to 8-1/2″ x 7″, then scored in half at 3-1/2″
• Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper (DSP) layer cut to 8-1/2″ x 3-1/2″
• Whisper White CS layer cut to 8-1/4″ x 3-1/4″ (3 pieces)
• DSP strip cut to 8-1/4″ x 3/4″

Stamped with the Freezin’ Fun stamp set:

• large tree, small tree, rabbit, raccoon, penguin, and snowboard in Tuxedo Black Memento ink onto a scrap of Whisper White Thick CS
• sentiment in Pool Party ink onto the Whisper White CS at the bottom of the front of the card (after it’s die cut)
• “swooshes” in Pool Party ink behind the raccoon and penguin, to indicate motion
• snowflakes in Pool Party ink onto the Whisper White CS for the inside

Cut using the Freezin’ Friends Dies:

• the 6 stamped images for the card front
• one of the Whisper White CS layers cut in half diagonally using the long, curved stitched die – it took two passes to cut the full length

Colored using Stampin’ Blends Markers:

• trees in Pretty Peacock (I covered the white parts of the trees in Clear Wink of Stella.)
• raccoon in Soft Suede, Crumb Cake, Bronze, Real Red, Night of Navy, Smoky Slate, and Basic Black
• rabbit in Seaside Spray, Flirty Flamingo, and Crumb Cake
• penguin in Basic Black, Highland Heather, and Pumpkin Pie
• drew a line along the top of the two “hills” in Pool Party, after gluing them down

Assembled the card:

• burnished the fold in the card base with a Bone Folder
• DSP layer glued onto the front of the card base
• a Whisper White CS layer glued onto the DSP layer
• the two die cut Whisper White CS pieces (hills) layered and glued onto the Whisper White CS layer (flipped one of the pieces over backwards, to have the higher ends of each piece at each end of the card (this is when I drew the Pool Party lines along the tops)
• large tree, raccoon, and rabbit adhered onto the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals
• snowboard, penguin, and small tree glued onto the card front
• Adhesive Snowflakes applied onto the “sky” area using a Take Your Pick tool
• DSP strip glued along the bottom of the Whisper White CS for the inside
• Whisper White CS glued onto the inside of the card base
