Step 1 of 13

Swipe the Sherbet and Bittersweet ink pads over the debossed side of the Wild Sunflowers folder and lightly spritz with water. 

Step 2 of 13

Place a piece of white card cut to 6 1/2 x 4 1/2", inside the folder and run it through your machine. 

Step 3 of 13

Use your inks, mixed with the Walnut Stain Distress ink, to paint the centre of your Sunflower.

Step 4 of 13

Once the ink is completely dry, lightly apply Gold gilding wax over the raised areas of the Sunflower centre. Buff with a soft cloth to intensify the shine.  

Step 5 of 13

Tear a panel of vellum and place across the bottom of your artwork. Tuck the ends of the vellum over the sides of your card and secure on the reverse with double sided tape. 

Step 6 of 13

Adhere your artwork to kraft card cut to 6 3/4 x 4 3/4" before adhering to your white 5 x 7" landscape card blank. 

Step 7 of 13

Each of the stencils in the Quattro D Christmas Is Coming collection are numbered and have hearts in the corner to help you line each stencil up, if required. 

Use your blending tool to apply ink through each stencil, on to white card trimmed to 7 x 5", as follows:

Stencil 1 Sherbet, Limeade and Walnut Stain, in whatever combination your prefer

Stencil 2 Same colours where desired, then use Walnut Stain for their shoes

Stencil 3 Tattered Rose

 

Step 8 of 13

Stamp over the stencilled images, in Midnight, with the stamp included in the collection, 

Step 9 of 13

Use the coordinating dies to cut out your Gnomes. If you are die cutting all three at once, make sure you secure the dies with low tack tape so they don't cross over each other!!

Step 10 of 13

Place the Gnomes inside the embossing folder and run it through your machine. 

Step 11 of 13

Secure two of your Gnomes in the bottom right of your card, keeping the third Gnome for another project. 

Step 12 of 13

Die cut "Love You More", from the Papercraft Society Box, THREE times out of kraft card. 

Step 13 of 13

Adhere the THREE die cut words together before securing to the right of your Gnomes, across the torn vellum panel. 

You made it!
