Hello! It’s Thursday and you know that means it is time for a Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge. This week is a fun sketch challenge!
WHIMSICAL TREES BUNDLE
Have I mentioned how much I LOVE the little bottle brush trees in the Whimsical Trees Stamp Set? So much fun! I let my card focus on the small trees in this set!
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Thick Basic White, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- On top is a 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Whimsy & Wonder Designer Paper (love that subtle print!)
- A 2-1/4 x 3-3/4 piece of Soft Sea Foam cardstock was stamped with the greeting from Whimsical Trees in Misty Moonlight Ink in the upper left corner.
- A 7/8 x 5 piece of striped Whimsy & Wonder DSP was cut on the end at an angle and added across the front.
- a 1/4 x 4-1/4 piece of Silver Foil was added on top and cut the end at an angle, too.
- The small tree was stamped off with Polished Pink Ink and the bottle brush tree stamped with Misty Moonlight Ink on Basic White cardstock. They were cut with the Christmas Tree Dies and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The garland and ornaments were cut from Polished Pink cardstock and added to the trees.
- Two iridescent Cute Stars were added to the tree tops.
LOVE, love, love this card! OK, go check out what the rest of the Challenge Team did with this sketch over on Create with Connie and Mary!
