A Clean, Simple, and Easy to Reproduce Card

During the Holiday season when I’m making cards I always try to design clean and simple—yet still adorable—cards so that I can reproduce a bunch of them in a short amount of time. Therefore, when I’m shopping for stamps online I always have that in mind. When I saw this stamp set, Gnome for the holidays, I knew the images and sentiments in this set would make for perfect easy-to-reproduce card.
All I did for this design was cut an A2 card base, and I also cut a panel in white that would have the Rudolph image and “Merry Christmas Dear” sentiment on it. I used a simple masking technique for the banner using a post-it note (and I saved it, so I can could it again and again). Next I simply colored in the image using a variety of Copic markers, and stamped the sentiment in red ink. Lastly I simply adhered the panel to the card base and that was it.
I think this is the design that I’m going to be making for my Friends and Family this year—for sure. I hadn't decided on which one I was going to send them and I think this one is the winner. If you'd like to get your hands on this card, they are also available in my shop. Click here to view it. Have a great day!
