Hi everyone! Working on staying warm here…I made ‘let it snow’ cards yesterday while looking out the window watching a snowglobe snow! So pretty! This one I made the day before and left it at ‘warm wishes’! ❤
I made the base for my wreath design with Two Knotted Circle Wreaths die cuts, the largest size. I die cut them in lightweight cardboard and inked them with Gathered Twigs distress ink and mini ink blending tool.
Then I inked white cardstock with the new Rustic Wilderness Distress ink, I’ve been dying to use this new color and then die cut the Pointy Pine Needle Sprigs die 4 times. (2 sprigs in each cut for a total of 8) Yes, yes, yes, just use green cardstock and it will speed up the process. I wasn’t hurrying and was just enjoying playing around! hehe
I did ink a gathered twigs circle on a white cardstock panel for the background. I spattered it with water droplets too.
I die cut and assembled the Pinecone Stackers die in lightweight cardboard also. After die cutting, keep the pieces in the die and ink blend on the back side like you would a stencil to add the dark areas on the design. Works awesome! I love it!
After I glued everything together, I spattered with white acrylic paint. I had to mask the little piece of red with the sentiment cuz I didn’t want a big splat of white landing on it!
I have three more Winter cards to share, then it’s get busy on NEW Memory Box, poppystamps and Birch Press Designs! I’m still in denial that it’s time to move on! I might have to sneak in Christmas/Winter with Birthday and Valentine for awhile still! hehe
Thank you for stopping by! We got a lot of snow but the sun’s out and keeping me warm!
Here’s what I used to make this card…scroll down to my last post for the SSS SALE!
