I had so much fun creating The Greeting Farm Xmas Sweeties single layer scene card last week, that I thought I would do a second version, but this time in a cozy living room.
I first stamped out The Greeting Farm girl and boy as well as the Lawn Fawn “Happy Howlidays” (retired) pups using Momento Tuxedo Black Ink (my go-to for alcohol ink coloring since it never bleeds) and created masks for the kids and the puppy hats with post-it note paper so that I could build up the scenes to look 3D. TIP: Masking stamped scenes is easy if you first start with the images that you want forward, mask them off, and lastly stamp the images that go behind the first images.
I used the following Copic colors to color up just the boy, girl and puppies for some spotlight coloring (the rest of the scene will stay black and white):
Skin: E000, E00, E21, R20 with W5 for inside girl’s mouth
Red costumes: R24, R27, R29 and N4
Faux fur on costumes: C00 and C1 with Uniball Signo white gel pen squiggles
Belt buckles: Y17 with Glossy Accent shiny coating
Deer antlers: W1 with Glossy Accent shiny coating
Dog with Santa hat: E11, E13 and E37
Dog with deer antlers: E55, E57, W1 with Uniball Signo white gel pen fur texture
Black hair: B01, C5, C7 and C9
Brown hair: E55, E57 and E59
I created the living room scene with two stamp sets from Joy Crafts, both called “Home Sweet Home.” I doodled some extra book shelves and continued the checker board floor from the fireplace hearth to ground the entire scene using a Copic Multiliner Pen in 0.1 pt.
