Polar Christmas Interactive Cards: Yippee for Yana

Hi friends! Please join me in welcoming back the oh-so-talented and amazing Yana Smakula! (Please note: our dear friend Yana is Ukrainian. To show support to our brothers and sisters in Ukraine, please see Yana’s post HERE.)

Hello, crafters, this is Yana Smakula for Simon Says Stamp! Welcome back for another Yippee For Yana video! Today I’m creating interactive cards with the Simon Says Stamp Polar Christmas stamp set.

I love to use action wobblers as they allow me to add interactivity to my cards easily. I typically start reaching for wobblers around Fall as I am creating Winter and Christmas cards; in my mind, that’s where wobblers make the most sense.


The Polar Christmas stamp set felt like it was a perfect option to pair with some mini wobblers for quick penguin cards. I stamped 2 penguin images in Memento Tuxedo Black ink into Neenah Solar White 80lb cardstock using a mini MISTI stamping tool and did simple coloring using Copic markers. I used the following marker colors:
- C10, C9, C7, C5
- W3, W1
- Colorless Blender
- R05, R20, R24
- E37, E79
- B000

Coordinating dies were used to cut these cuties out once my coloring was completed.

Next, I did some DIY mask-making and drew a simple blob using a pencil, cut the inside of the blob out to create a simple mask. I used the mask to blend Seafoam ink and create seafoam-colored blobs on my panels to help me ground my penguins. I also stamped sentiments in VersaClair ink and added snow using Splatter White from Spellbinders. I trimmed the ink blended and splattered panel to 3 ¾ x 5” and foam mounted them onto A2 Fog card bases. Lastly, I added my penguins in the centers using wobblers! LOVE!

Have fun playing with your action wobblers and the Polar Christmas stamps!

If the tutorial was in tik tok, I could download it via https://savetiktok.org/ and even without internet to follow it, so I hope to find it there, because I want to try to do it while I’m on the road for 24 hours, I’ll have just enough time to do it. It should turn out very nice! Christmas is coming soon, I’m looking forward to it.
