Christmas Puppy EZ Flip It Cards – Diemond Dies DTP + Giveaway | CraftyPaws

I was so excited by the new Diemond Dies EZ Flip It dies. They are so fun to use to make super cute fun fold easel cards! For the two cards featured here, I used the My Creative Times Christmas Doggy stamp set, some old papers from my stash, including the My Mind’s Eye “All Is Bright” collection, and the following Diemond Dies:

Bow Die Set to make the snow banks for the puppy to sit on
Labels 1 Nesting Die Set to make the stopper for the easel card
Winter Snowflake Die Set and Snowflake #1 Die to make the decorate snowflakes for the second card

The following is a video of my Copic coloring of the cute little Christmas Doggy in different colors along with a review of Marvy Uchida’s Liquid Applique and DecoArt’s Snow Writer (UPDATE: after de-clogging my Snow Writer, it came out beautifully and I LOVE the way it dries/cures solidly.  This is a much better long-term material for using on cards, layouts, and alter projects since it does not deflate or get crushed over time (or in the mail)):

I used the following Copic colors:
Black puppy: W3, 5, 7, 9; White puppy: W1 and 3; and Spotted puppy: W1, W3, E33, 23 and 25.  The golden puppy, which I use in the card tutorial but was not included in this coloring video, was colored up with E21, E33, and R30 (for blush).  The Santa hats were all colored with R24, 29 and 39.  I added highlights to the eyes and noses with a white Sakura Gelly Roll pen and also used Glossy Accents to add shine to the eyes and noses.
