Christmas Gnome With Candy Cane Card

 Hello!  Today I share a cute little gnome that I made 'Christmasy' by adding a candy cane and some snow.  This adorable little guy is from the Technique Junkies October 2020 release.

Stamps used (All Technique Junkies):

Here's how I made my card:

• On a piece of bristol card stock, I stamped one of the gnomes from the  Gnome For Christmas Set of 6 set and colored it with Arteza real brush markers.
• I brushed distress ink on the background and used white pigment with an eraser and embossing tool to dot on snowflakes.  I used a mask to keep the snow hill area white.
• I stamped the Candy Cane and colored with Arteza markers.  I fussy-cut the candy cane.
• With a craft knife, I cut around the gnome's gloves, and inserted the candy cane underneath, gluing it to the card, to appear as he is holding it.
  
• I ran a red mini stamp pad along the edges of the panel, and added it to a layer of red and white striped pp, red card stock and onto a white A2 card.
• The verse is from the Gnome For Christmas Set.

I really had fun creating this little card.  These gnomes are charming, and add whimsy to our projects.

I hope you are enjoying the TJ October release!  I believe it is our best Christmas release ever!  Check it out HERE.
