ASPEN GROVE
I knew I wanted to use the new Aspen Grove stamp set (available in January!) on today’s card! I combined it with a current set, Delicate Pines, for a winter look!
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Pretty Peacock cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- The 3-1/2 x 5-1/2 piece of Basic White cardstock was stamped with the Aspen Grove tree trunks on the left (3) and on the right (2). NOTE: Did you know these trunks are SEPARATE stamps? I didn’t know until I just used it! Makes it easy to use just a couple, or an entire row! The Light Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blend was used to add a shadow on the right side of the tree trunks.
- The stamped piece was added to a 3-3/4 x 5-1/2 piece of Crumb Cake cardstock, then added to the front.
- The middle snowflake from Delicate Pines was stamped with Pretty Peacock Ink on Basic White and cut with the Delicate Pines Die.
- The smaller snowflake was cut with the Delicate Pines Die from Peaceful Garden Glimmer Paper and added to the center of the medium snowflake with Monoadhesive Glue. The entire snowflake was added to the center with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The greeting from Delicate Pines was stamped with Pretty Peacock Ink on 5/8 x 2-1/2 Crumb Cake cardstock and the ends cut at an angle.
- Some Low Profile Sparkle Dots were added to the background and the center of the small snowflake.
This card sure looks like a winter scene to me! OK, next up on our blog hop is our Create with Stamping Friends website, then on to creative Debbie Henderson, or head backwards to see Melissa Davies’ fabulous project and see what everyone did with this challenge!
