JustRite Christmas Blog Hop Wednesday #1

Good morning! Today is the beginning of the 12 week JustRite Christmas Blog Wednesday!! To kick off the 12-weeks of Christmas Blog Hop Wednesdays, JustRite is offering a free shipping coupon code for September 8-10. Please enter this code into the promotional code box at checkout: CBHOP1. The offer will expire at midnight PST September 10th and is only good for orders shipped within the United States and its US Territories. I have a link list a the bottom of this post so you will be able to visit east of the JustRite Stampers DT Member's blogs.Here is the card I created for today's JustRite Christmas Blog Hop. I used the JB-09785 Vintage Christmas and JB-09255 Christmas Nested Sentiments & Verse from JustRite Stampers. The paper is from My Mind's Eye, The Merry Days of Christmas and I also used Spellbinders™ die templates.To start I stamped the image of the snowman from the JB-09785 Vintage Christmas stamp set from JustRite onto white cardstock with Memento Rich Cocoa Ink. Then I colored in the hat with Copic markers.Next I colored in the scarf and band on the hat with Copic markers.I hand cut the images of the hat and scarf and then stamped the image again and colored the outer edges with Copic markers.I used S4-114 Standard Circles Large dies #4 to cut/emboss the circle diecut.Next I stamped the border and used S4-114 Standard Circles Large dies #6 to cut/emboss a larger circle diecut.I layered all of the images together using 3D Foam Squares from SCRAPBOOK ADHESIVES By 3L™ and I added a few green rhinestones.Here is a close-up of the snowman image on the card. I also used S4-249 Big Scalloped Circles Large die #6 to create a mat.Then I created the mittens using S4-285 Nested Mittens. To create a pair of mittens cut one and then flip your paper to the other side and cut the other one.Here is a close-up of the mittens on the card. I added some brown ribbon and rhinestones.For the sentiment I used JB-09255 Christmas Nested Sentiments & Verse along with JB-09520 Clear Horizontal Stampers-2 pack (1-5/8'' x 3-1/2''). Then I airbrushed a rhinestone swirl sticker with Copic markers.Here is a close-up of the sentiment on the card.
