I made this beautiful card with my Stampin' Up! Lovely as a Tree stamp set. This is definitely a MUST HAVE set for anyone that's into paper crafting because it's perfect for almost every season and occasion. I love how this turned out. It's actually one my favorites out of all the cards that I've ever made. Looking at it takes me back to when I was a little girl out playing in the snow with my Dad. Here's how to make it:
First cut a 5 1/2" x 11" piece of turquoise card stock and fold it in half for the base, a 5 1/4" square piece of light blue for the first layer, and a 5" square piece of white for the front layer.
Then tear two pieces of scrap paper in the shape of a snowbank, add removable adhesive around the top edge and attach one of them to the front layer. Next sponge the center of the front layer with Stampin' Up! Bashful Blue ink getting lighter toward the top. To avoid dark spots begin sponging just off the card stock and work your way in. Then using a Stamp a ma jig, heat emboss the smaller white trees putting the first one in the center of the card stock with Versamark ink and Winter Wonderland embossing powder. Next stamp the black trees in Memories black ink so they slightly overlap the embossed ones. Then heat emboss the pine tree on the left side of the front layer with Versamark ink and Winter Wonderland embossing powder. Next just to the right of the embossed tree stamp the tree again in black ink. Next heat emboss the tree again on a piece of light blue card stock with Versamark ink and Winter Wonderland embossing powder, cut it out and set it aside. Next remove the mask and place it (or another one w/a different shape) just below the first line and lightly sponge the top edge with Bashful Blue ink then add Diamond Stickles glitter glue along both sponged lines and allow it to dry completely. Then attach the light blue embossed pine tree with mini pop dots, attach the front layer to the middle layer, tie the ribbon around both layers then attach the middle layer to the base and enjoy!
