Welcome to Create with Stamping Friends Creatively Simple Challenge! Each month Debbie and I will pick a theme for our simple cards. Our August theme is “Scenic”.
WINTERLY TREE TOPS
I was so happy to have the opportunity to purchase the Winterly Tree Tops Suite of products early during Creativity Now training this summer. Now it is available for EVERYONE to order in the upcoming August-December Mini Catalog! For today’s Creatively Simple card I used just the Nests of Winter Designer Paper for most of this card…along with the greeting from Winterly Tree Tops stamp set!
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Copper Clay cardstock, cut off 1-1/4 x 4-1/4 on one end, then scored at 5-1/2 and folded with the shorter side on top.
- I placed a 4 x 4 piece of Nests of Winter DSP on the front panel and a coordinating 1 x 4 piece on the inside (so it shows thru to the front).
- Next, I added a 4 x 4 piece of Basic White cardstock inside (should have stamped a bird on it!!!)
- I used the leftover 1-1/4 x 4-1/4 piece of Copper Clay cardstock and trimmed to 1-1/4 x 4. I used a corner rounder on the top right and bottom left sides, then added the left side to the front panel over the DSP with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- I stamped the greeting with Copper Clay Ink on 1 x 3-3/4 piece of Basic White cardstock, used the Corner Rounder again, and added to the Copper Clay piece.
- Then I cut the bird, acorn and greenery from the DSP and added to and under the greeting with Stampin’ Dimensionals. (TIP: Use those edge pieces to tuck under the greeting panel and you won’t even know they are missing some of the image!)
- Finally, I added two of the Earth Tones Shimmer Gems to the greeting panel to finish it off.
This came together SO quickly! Check out Debbie’s new Creatively Simple card over on Create with Stamping Friends!
