CHRISTMAS CARD: Hello Bluebird - City Walks & Big Christmas Greetings

Hello everyone, can I just say... WAUW! I still cannot believe that I made a card like this one, but I am stoked! So I hope you don't mind my enthusiasm, but I am glad you are here! Let me tell you how to create this card/ something similar. 


You can watch the video below or click HERE to watch at my Youtube channel. A supply list can be found at the bottom of this blog post.


I started by coloring the images from City Walks from Hello Bluebird using my Copic Markers (combination listed below). Afterwards, I used the matching dies to cut them out. 

  • Cat: E33, E53, E51 / E13
  • Bear: E59, E57, E33, E53 / E53, E51
  • Reindeer: E59, E57, E33, / E33, E53, E51 / E13
  • Glow: Y00
  • Red: R39, R37, R24
  • Blue: BG49, BG23, BG11
  • Lamp: W8, W6, W5, W3

For the background, I ink blended (with distress inks) a night sky around a light source (based on placement of the lantern) and for the grounding I used the Drifts & Hills Stencil from MFT. For the sentiment, I used the Big Christmas Greetings from Hello Bluebird. 


With all the elements ready, I assembled everything on top of a card base. Next, I added 'snow' using white gouache and finished it off using some stickles. I hope you like it! xxx
