It’s Thursday and you know that means it is time for a Create with Stamping Friends Thursday Challenge. This sketch has a unique background design that was a lot of fun!
WINTERLY TREE TOPS
Winterly Tree Tops is a new Stampin’ Up! bundle (part of the Nests of Winter Suite) that will be in the Sept-Dec Mini Catalog! Demonstrators attending the Creativity Now Online Stamping Event were able to purchase it in advance! I loved working with it!
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Boho Blue cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded to form the base card.
- The 3 x 4 and 2 x 4 pieces of birch bark pattern in the Nests of Winter 12×12 Designer Paper pack had diagonal cuts made on them and then added to the front of a 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Early Espresso cardstock.
- The 2-1/4 x 3-1/4 piece of Basic White cardstock was stamped at the top with the greeting from Winterly Tree Tops in Early Espresso Ink.
- It was added to a 2-3/8 x 3-3/8 piece of Boho Blue cardstock.
- The single bird was stamped with Early Espresso Ink on Basic White cardstock and colored with Boho Blue, Wild Wheat, Crumb Cake and Real Red Stampin’ Blends. It was cut with the Winterly Tree Tops Die and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Two pine branches were cut from Garden Green cardstock and added to the branch the bird is standing on.
- Some blue Natural Tones Linen Thread was tied in a bow and added to the pine branches.
- A trio of Earth Tones Shimmer Gems were added to the background designer paper.
That was a fun background to work with! OK, go check out what the rest of the Challenge Team did with this challenge over on Create with Stamping Friends.
