Circle Thinlit Elf Card

HEY Stampin' Friends!!! 

Since my Frankie, Mrs. Frankie, Mummy and Owl cards with the Circle Thinlits the wheels in my head are turning, ideas for more and  more "face" cards are spinning around in there!  Here is the latest idea.

Introduing Mr. Elf! 

FLIP...

Want to make your own Elf Card???  Here are a few tips and pics to help you out. 

Die cut your Circle card from Very Vanilla card stock

Adhere a 3/4" x 6" strip of Gumball Green card stock (sponge the top and sides w/ GG) across the top of the card, about 1/4" of the strip will hang off the top of the card. Adhere a Whisper White strip of card stock that has been die cut with the Tasteful Trims die, also 6" long. Trim the ends if neccesary.  

Adhere a sponged 1" x 6" strip of stripped DSP from the Season of Style Designer Series Paper Stack across the bottom of the card.  

Use a ruler and a stylus tool to trace over the score lines. 

For the hat cut a 5" x 2" piece of Gumball Green card stock in half diagonally.  Use one piece for the had, sponge all side.  Punch out one 3/4" scallop circle from Whisper White Card stock for the pom pom on the hat.  Mount the hat to the card using Multipurpose Liquid Glue, mount the pom pom with a dimensional.  

You may need to trim one of the scallops on the white scallop trim so that the card flips properly. 

Adhere the eyes and nose. 

Large Eye: 1-3/4" Circle - Whisper White, 3/4" Circle - Basic Black

Medium Eye: 1-3/8" Circle - Whisper White, 1/2" Circle - Basic Black

Small Eye: 1-1/4" Circle - Whisper White, Circle from Itty Bitty Punch Pack - Basic Black 

Nose: Small Oval - Very Vanilla - sponge edges with Pink Pirouette ink. 

For the ear, punch out one oval from Very Vanilla card stock with the Extra-Large Oval Punch.  Using a sticky note as a handle, insert the oval into the 1-1/4" circle punch and take a "bite" out of one side of the oval.  (like my recycled post it, you can see my daughter used it as scratch paper for her math)  :)

Using your Paper Snips, cut/trim the top of the oval to make a pointy ear. 

Sponge the edges of the ear with Pink Pirouette ink. Adhere to card. 

Cut two 1"x1" pieces of Cherry Cobbler Card stock and two 1" x 2" strips of DSP (sponge all edges with Cherry Cobbler ink). 

Snip one side of the Cherry Cobbler piece, making fringe for the scarf. Adhere that to the end of the scarf piece.  Repeat this step with the other Cherry Cobbler Square and DSP piece. 

Adhere the two pieces togther like this: 

Cover the end where the two piece are adhered with a 1" circle punch from the same paper and sponged.  Adhere this scarf piece with dimensionals to the left side of the card only.  Draw in a mouth with a Basic Black marker. Sponge in a rosey cheek with a Sponge Dauber and Pink Pirouette. 

For the inside circle, die cut one the scallop from the Circle Thinlits in Cherry Cobbler Card Stock.  Stamp and punch out the saying from the Tags 4 You set in Gumball green. 

And Mr. Elf is done!
