Happy Wednesday Ai Fans!!!
Watch video tutorial here!!!
Today we are going to be using another wonderful Front Porch Series stamp set! This is the Ai Front Porch Christmas Set (5489) and has so many wonderful holiday images including a wreath, Christmas tree, sled, lights, gift packages, potted poinsettia plant and several other coordinating images! Please note that you will need the Ai Front Porch Set (5512) to create the basic front porch and door. I'll talk a bit more about that in the video and give you a closer look at that set!
These fun little tags were inspired by the current Ai "When One Door Closes" Challenge which is to create a card or project using items with doors (houses, barns, cubbies, fairy houses, cards, trucks... etc.) anything with a door!
Let's begin by stamping, coloring and die cutting all of the images in this set. For the coloring we will be using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Pale Yellow, Orange, Pach Pink, Geranium Red, Deep Red, Lt Violet, Ice Blue, Dull Blue, May Green, Green, Mustard, Beige, Brick Beige, Mid Brown, Gray Brown, Lt Gray, Gray.
We will also stamp and die cut the Front Porch from the Ai Front Porch Set (5512). We will need to trace the outline of this front porch onto some patterned paper and on another piece of white cardstock. We can glue the patterned piece onto the front porch image...but before we do that, we need to stamp a sentiment. This will be so cute when the front door is opened you will see a sweet holiday sentiment. The sentiments will come from the Ai Christmas Sentiments Set (5566). I'll show you how to easily line this up behind the door in today's video!
Now we will create the card base by scoring the top of the white piece that we traced earlier, as will be seen in the video. We can now glue the top of the white piece to the front door.
Let's add all of our images onto the front doors by popping them up using some 3D Foam Squares.
Finally, let's punch a hole at the top of the tags/cards and add some red and white baker's twine so that it can be easily tied onto a gift package!
Please join us in this new challenge...we would love to see what you create!
