Gnome for the Holidays
>> Tuesday, October 20, 2020
Hi Everyone!
I feel so lucky to be able to give you a peek at one of the new sentiments that is being released this week. The Tiny Gnome for the Holidays Greeting is perfect for the collection of gnome stamps here at DRS Designs.
Here I stamped the Tree Home Gnome and colored it up, adding some lights to his place of residence
that were fussy cut from the Christmas Light String.
The background was stamped using the Large Original Plaid stamp and some black ink. By stamping on a colored piece of paper, you get the a two color look by only using one ink. I added a punched border along each side and embellished it using a printed ribbon and a snowflake brad.
For my second card, I wanted to keep with the gnome theme, and showcase the same sentiment, so I stamped the Toadstools around the perimeter of the background and colored them in very loosely using a watercolor brush. I did the same with the Mushroom Line Background and added the Peeking Gnome that was colored and fussy cut.
In the spirit of this adorable gnome, thanks for peeking in today! To see all of the new stamps, just click on over to the store!
Have a great day :)

Karin, the lights are such a fun touch and the colors are wonderful and fresh. I love how you colored that first card up. Super framing on the sentiment and plaid creation too. Awesome.
Super fun mushrooms and details on the second.
Great post! Hugz
Oh I love your Gnome with the Christmas lights on the tree! So so cute!! Your colors and patterns and borders are just perfect!
These are both SO cute Karin! Adding the Christmas lights to the tree truck is a fabulous idea, and your plaid background is wonderful! So many little details that all come together perfectly! Your 2nd card is so totally different, but I really like the more relaxed look to it!
The Christmas lights on the first card really make it festive & special! I like how you created the red & black plaid for it too. I like the playful look & feel of your second card, too.
Oh my goodness the Gnome for the Holidays sign is so perfect for both of your cards. The lights on the tree is perfect too. Two cute cards.
How cute these are, Karin! Love that red/black plaid contrasted w/ the bright green on the first.Those red & green toadstools are so fun & festive. Love the little gnome peeking over the band,
