Tee Pee Card Video Tutorial

Image
I hope you each had a wonderful Thanksgiving and survived the crazy shopping crowds on Black Friday! I enjoyed shopping from home and playing in my stamping studio. Below is a tee pee card I made for the thanksgiving table. I originally saw this idea at a swap i attended a few weeks ago. Karen was the one who showed us how to make the card here is a link to her original card . I made a similar card last month with my stamp clubs. The card was a bit difficult to explain so with my hubbies help I made you a video! the video has some issues but I think it gets across the process. So here goes. Hope you enjoyed it. Don't forget just a few short hours left on the extravaganza sale! See the post below for details.

I love Christmas cards and I keep making new ones. This one is so easy I wanted to share it with you. Supplies Stamps So swirled, Punches Three Ink Riding Hood Red, Baha Breeze Paper Riding Hood Red, Whisper white, Baha Breeze DSP Accessories Sharpie pen, Punches 1", 1 1/4" Sponge dauber, scallop square punch, Riding Hood Red striped ribbon To make this card start by creating a mask with both punches. I started with the lower Baha breeze ornament. Using your dauber and larger mask place on whisper white card stock. Ink dauber with Baha breeze ink and swirl in a circular fashion. this makes the center of the ornament have dimension. Before removing the mask stamp with same color ink and the smallest snow flake from snow swirled set. To make an ornament that is behind use the circle you punched out from the original mask to cover ornament. When finished using a sharpie marker create strings and ties. Adhere to Baha breeze DSP and adhere that to Riding hood red card stock.
