A Foxy Christmas/Winter in July Slimline Card

Greetings! Today I'm sharing a project created for Topflight Stamps. This week my TFS teammates and I are celebrating Christmas/Winter in July. I got so excited that I chose to play along twice, today and Tuesday!

I recently received the super-cute new Foxes Unmounted Red Rubber Stamp Set by Katzelkraft which I decided to use with the Winter's Snowflakes Clear Polymer Stamp Set by Hobby Art Ltd., Sue Wilson Slimline Collection, Essential Rectangle Frames Die Set by Creative Expressions, and one of the masks from the Acetate Hills Mask by Lavinia Stamps.

Here's my slimline card.

Instructions and Notes:

Since we're celebrating winter, I decided to make the foxes into Arctic Foxes. 

1. Use magnets to secure white cardstock to the base of the Stamping Platform.
2. Position two of the foxes face-down onto the cardstock where desired. 
3. Press the platform's lid onto the back of the stamps and lift.
4. Use London Fog (grey) Memento ink to ink the stamps.
5. Stamp the foxes onto white cardstock and onto removable label paper. 
6. Fussy-cut the label paper versions and adhere atop their counterparts as masks.
7. Secure the image panel and one of the Acetate Hills masks onto the STAY-tion with magnets.
8. Brush Summer Sky and London Fog inks blue and grey ink over the mask and the masked foxes.
9. Move the image panel back onto the stamping platform and secure with magnets.
10. Position the snowflakes from the Winter's Snowflakes Clear Polymer Stamp Set facedown on the image panel. 
11. Press the platform's lid onto the back of the stamps and lift.
12. Ink the snowflake stamps with Silvery Shimmer Delicata ink.
13. Stamp the snowflakes and heat set the image panel.
14. Use the second largest die from the Sue Wilson Slimline Collection, Essential Rectangle Frames Die Set was used to die-cut the image panel.
15. Remove masks from the foxes and retain.
16. Color the foxes with Copic markers. 
17. Edge the image panel with Silvery Shimmer Delicata ink then heat set.
18. Use the largest die from the Sue Wilson Slimline Collection, Essential Rectangle Frames Die Set to  cut silver speckled blue cardstock.

20. Adhere the matted image panel to a lighter blue slimline card.
