Check out all the sparkle and depth created using the Tri Fold Edge Winter Pine Fancy Die set

I started by cutting two layers of the pines from Cougar 110lb cardstock. Foe the snowy depth, I used white embossing paste and stamped it on using a pallette knife.


Before the paste dried, I sprinkled some confetti onto the trees, pressed it down and set aside to dry.


While the trees were drying, I created that colorful wintery background. The first step was to emboss the Starry Night Brushstroke Stamp onto a piece of Cougar cardstock with white embossing powder.

Using Speckled Egg, Tumbled Glass and Shaded Lilac Distress inks, I ink blended the colorful sky.


I stamped the sentiment from The Winter Holiday Messages set in Shaded Lilac ink.

The last step was to assemble the card. I trimmed the background to allow a 1/4 inch border on my A7 card base.

The bottom tree layer was attached, followed by the top layer popped up with foam tape. I love the sparkle on the trees!


Thanks so much for stopping by today! I'd love to have you follow/subscribe on my social media sites InstagramFacebookBlogger and You Tube.  Be well. Be creative!
