Winter Snow

Although I made this card to add to my Christmas box, it can be sent for any occasion. I like having several cards that can be sent for whatever purpose arises. Thoughts? 

Stamps:

   Peaceful Evergreens

Paper:

   Early Espresso A-2, 1/8 x 4 (2)

   Crumb Cake 5-1/4 x 4

   Very Vanilla 3-1/4 x 4, 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

   Season of Elegance DSP 3/4 x 4 (2)

   Mossy Meadow 1-1/2 x 3-1/4 (3)

Ink:

   Old Olive

Technique:

   Stamp-Off

   Tearing

   Die Cutting

Accessories:

   Peaceful Evergreens Dies

   Gold Textured Adhesive-Backed Dots

   Snowfall Accents Puff Paint

   Fine Tip Glue Pen

   Adhesive

First, I stamped the Very Vanilla panel with trees. I stamped one in the center and then again behind it without re-inking. (Stamp-Off) This gave me two shades of Old Olive. I repeated this step on the left side and right side of the panel. Since there are more lighter tones of Old Olive, I did stamp-off on my scratch paper to fill the background. 

I then tore a tiny bit off one end of each Season of Elegance DSP strip. I tore the paper toward me to get that bit of white on the edge. 

Next, I adhered each of these DSP strips to the Crumb Cake panel: one on the top and one on the bottom with the torn edge toward the center of the card. The strips are flush with the outer edges of the Crumb Cake panel.

I then adhered the stamped Very Vanilla panel in the center of these strips of DSP.

Next, I took two of my leftover 1/8" strips of Early Espresso and adhered one on the top edge of the Very Vanilla panel and one on the bottom edge.

I then die cut three trees, using the matching die from the Peaceful Evergreens dies and Mossy Meadow card stock.

Using my Fine Tip Glue Pen, I adhered these trees onto the three dominate trees on the card.

Next, I adhered this panel onto an Early Espresso card front. 

I then randomly added a few snowballs, using my Snowfall Accents Puff Paint and let it dry over night. Unfortunately, these dried clear, so I added some Gold Textured Adhesive-Backed Dots instead. Let me add that the puff paint dried clear because I forgot to heat set it. Duh...my brain skipped a few steps.

Lastly, I adhered a Very Vanilla panel to the inside of the card.

   Adhesive

First, I stamped the trees on the Crumb Cake panel, using Mossy Meadow.

I then stamped the snowflakes with Whisper White Craft ink.

Next, I stamped the sentiment on the Very Vanilla strip, using Cherry Cobbler.

I then adhered the Crumb Cake panel to the top of the Mossy Meadow panel.

Next, I punched the ends of the sentiment strip, using the Banners Pick a Punch and adhered it to the bottom of the Mossy Meadow panel.

I then adhered the Festive Farmhouse DSP to the bottom of the Cherry Cobbler panel, and added this panel to the Mossy Meadow card front.

Next, I adhered the Mossy Meadow/Crumb Cake stamped panel to the center of the card front, leaving room at the bottom for the wooden snowflake embellishment.

I then added the wooden snowflake with a glue dot and adhered the Very Vanilla panel to the inside of the card.

Lastly, I added some Snowfall Accents Puff Paint on a few tree branches. I heat set it to make it puffy. If you don't have puff paint, you can use a white gel pen, or even add a bit of glitter with a bit of adhesive.

This distINKtive stamp set can be monochromatic, adding just the right shade of color to the images. You can also opt to add color after stamping, or add color directly to the stamp before stamping. What is your preference? 

Stamps:

   Graceful Deer

   Regal Reindeer

Paper:

   Early Espresso A-2

   Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (2), Scrap

Ink:

   Early Espresso

   Real Red

   Real Red

Technique:

   Punching

   Adhesive-Backed Snowflakes

   Snowfall Accents Puff Paint

Since, this is a large stamp, you may choose to use a Stamparatus or MISTI to get a good impression. 

First, I stamped my image, using Early Espresso onto a Basic White panel.

I then colored the red robin in the tree, using a Real Red marker.

Next, I added some Snowfall Accents Puff Paint and heat set it. I tried to not add too much of this. I used it mostly around the bottom of the trees and the deer's feet.

I then stamped and punched out the sentiment, using Real Red ink and the Large Oval Punch. I adhered it with dimensionals.

Lastly, I adhered the panel onto the Early Espresso card front, added a few snowflakes, and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.
