I went all out and created a fun shaker snow globe card to celebrate this festive event! Plus I made video demonstrating all the steps and I also highlight how to stretch your dies with the partial die-cutting technique.
[Technique] Altering Diecuts with Partial Die-cutting by Channin
Watch below or on our YouTube channel.
First, I stamped a plaid background onto a A2 panel made from red cardstock using the Plaid Play Stamp Set and Fired Brick Distress Ink. I then partial die-cut the second largest dome die from the A2 Nested Dome Die set on the plaid panel. Then using an x-acto knife I cut between the ends of the dome and then removed the inner dome. Next, I stamped one of the layers from the Layering Woodgrain Stamp Set in Distress Oxide Iced Spruce on a gray cardstock. I then diecut the largest base from the A2 Nested Dome Die set on from the stamped gray cardstock. I then adhered the base to the plaid panel and then placed the panel over an A2 panel of white craft foam and an A2 panel of white cardstock and traced around the dome opening. Next, I cut out the dome from the craft foam and set it aside.
I then constructed my small house using the Pop-up House Die to make all the components and alcohol markers to color them. I also colored, diecut, and stamped 3 trees from the Cold Hands Stamp Set and matching dies. Then with a hand cut mask, I ink blended some snow drifts/hills with New Fish in Pond Dye Ink on the white panel. I also hand cut another layer of snow drifts/hills from white cardstock and also ink blended the tops. I then stamped a sentiment from the A Homemade Christmas Stamp Set in Candied Apple Distress Oxide onto the white panel. Next, I adhered all my scene elements for the snow globe onto the white panel. I then adhered the craft foam panel onto the white panel and then poured clear glitter into the well created by the craft foam. Next, I adhered the acetate onto the backside of the plaid panel and then adhered the panel onto the craft foam. Lastly, I adhered the panel onto an A2 card base made from red cardstock.
