Delicate Baubles Dies – Boy and Girl Pilgrims

By | Leave a Comment

I’ve made another popular couple using the famous Delicate Baubles Dies…a boy and girl pilgrim!  My girlfriend, Annette, requested these and I thought it was a great idea!

You can see my GNOME, SANTA, GINGERBREAD, ELF, PENGUIN, SNOWMAN, WITCH, MICKEY MOUSE,  DRACULA, RUDOLPH, GRINCH & MAX, NUTCRACKER, SCARECROW and SANTA AND MRS CLAUS by clicking on their name.

 

Stampin’ Details for both cards:

  • The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Crumb Cake cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
  • A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Harvest Meadow Designer Paper is added on top.
  • The Banner Year greeting was stamped with Memento Black Ink on the 1-1/2 x 4 piece of Crumb Cake cardstock and adhered across the front towards the bottom.
  • A trio of Genial Gems were added to the Crumb Cake background.

GIRL PILGRIM

  • The arabesque solid shape in the Delicate Bauble Die was cut from Petal Pink, Basic Black and Basic White cardstocks.
  • The bottom of the Basic Black was cut off and added to the Petal Pink cardstock.
  • I cut the Basic White Delicate Bauble in half, then used the Layering Circle to cut away the bonnet and adhered it over the Petal Pink Bauble.  I used the scrap piece to hand-cut her collar and added that over the Basic Black at the bottom.
  • I hand-cut her hair from Early Espresso cardstock and tucked it under the bonnet.
  • The eyes are 3/8″ circles from Basic Black cardstock and the cheeks are 1/2″ circles from Flirty Flamingo cardstock and adhered with Mini Glue Dots.  The nose is 3/8″ circle popped up with Stampin’ Dimensional.
  • The bow from Delicate Baubles Dies was cut from scrap Basic White cardstock and added with a Mini Glue Dot.
  • The eyes were highlighted with the White Chalk Pen.
  • The pilgrim bauble was added to the front of the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

BOY PILGRIM

    • The arabesque solid shape in the Delicate Bauble Die was cut from Petal Pink, Basic Black and Basic White cardstocks.
    • The bottom of the Basic Black was cut off and added to the Petal Pink cardstock.
    • I cut the Basic White Delicate Bauble bottom and hand-trimmed for the collar and added that over the Basic Black at the bottom.
    • A 1-1/2 x 2 piece of Basic Black was angled on the sides to form the hat, then a 1/8 x 2-3/4 of Basic Black was used for the hat brim.  It was added to the top of the Petal Pink Bauble.
    • The buckle from All Dressed Up dies was cut from Bumblebee cardstock and added to his hat.
    • I hand-cut his hair from Early Espresso cardstock and tucked it under his hat.
    • The eyes are 3/8″ circles from Basic Black cardstock and the cheeks are 1/2″ circles from Flirty Flamingo cardstock adhered with Mini Glue Dots.  The nose is 3/8″ circle popped up with Stampin’ Dimensional.
    • A 1/4″ circle was cut from Bumblebee cardstock for his button.
    • The eyes and button were highlighted with the White Chalk Pen.
    • The pilgrim bauble was added to the front of the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Aren’t they just the cutest couple?  I love how they turned out!
