For this first card I began by cutting a 4"x3-1/4" top mat out of
Whisper White CS.
Then I used some masks (cut from scraps of cardstock) to color the background. First I placed one mask toward the bottom of the card and used
Gray Granite Ink and a
Make-Up brush to color above the mask. I used a second mask further up the panel and used
Tranquil Tide Ink to lightly color the sky area.
I stamped the group of trees stamp from the
Lovely As Aa Tree stamp set using
Tranquil Tide Ink.
The sentiment stamp is from the
Toile Tidings stamp set and was stamped in
Tranquil Tide Ink.
I mounted the top mat onto a piece of
Silver Glimmer Paper cut at 4-1/4"x 3-1/2"
The bottom mat was cut at 5-1/4"x 4" from
Tranquil Tide Cardstock and dotted with
Whisper White Ink.
I taped a piece of
White Ribbon with Silver Metallic Edges across the center of the bottom mat and then popped up the finished top mat using
Dimensionals.
The completed piece was attached to a
White Card Base using
Tape Runner.
This 2nd card was also colored using masks. The standard size top mat (5"x3-3/4")was cut from
Whisper White CS. I covered the bottom of the mat with one of the curved masks and also applied a 1-7/8" circular mask toward the top of the mask, and then lightly shaded the top with
Tranquil Tide Ink.
After removing the 2 masks I stamped the group of trees using
Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.
The sentiment is from the
October 2017 Paper Pumpkin Kit - Pining for Plaid, and was also stamped with the
Memento Ink.
I used
glue pens to apply glue on the stamped lines at the bottom of the trees and sprinkled on some
Dazzlin' Diamond Glitter. Then I sprayed the whole card front with
Shimmer Spray.
The top mat was attached to a standard size bottom mat of 5-1/4"x4"
Tranquil Tide CS and then the completed piece attached to a
White Card Base using
Tape Runner.
For this 3rd card I began by cutting 3"x4" piece of
Whisper White Card.
I applied a 1-1/4" circular mask and then lightly colored the piece using
make-up brushes and
Shaded Spruce Ink. After removing the mask, I stamped the trees using
Shaded Spruce Ink. Then I dotted the panel with a
glue pen and sprinkled the mat with
Silver Glitter and sprayed it with
Shimmer Spray.
I also stamped the pine tree from the
Lovely AS A Tree Stamp set using
Shaded Spruce Ink and fussy cut it out.
Next I cut a standard top mat out of
Whisper White CS and cut out an oval shape using one of the
Layered Ovals Framelits as shown (slightly off center). The sentiment is from the
Star of Light Stamp Set and was stamped with
Shaded Spruce Ink. Then I attached the top mat to the colored piece using
Tape Runner and popped up the pine tree to the left side with
Dimensionals.
The completed piece was attached to a standard bottom mat of
Shaded Spruce CS and then to a
White Card Base using
Tape Runner.
For this 4th card I cut the top mat from
Night of Navy CS and stamped several times using the
Pine Tree from the
Lovely As A Tree Stamp Set using
Whisper White Ink. I used the
Stamparatus to stamp it several times to get enough of the white color. As the white ink dries it soaks into the paper a bit and so the trees almost look light blue.
I used a the
Stampin' Chalk Marker to dot the sky.
Next I roughly tore the top edge off a scrap piece of
Whisper White CS, drew several wavy lines of glue across the piece and applied
Ice Stampin' Glitter. I used
Tape Runner to attach it to the bottom of the top mat and trimmed off the ends to fit the mat.
The sentiment is from the
Star of Light Stamp Set and was heat embossed with
White Embossing Powder.
I sprayed the completed top mat with
Shimmer Spray.
The top mat was attached to a bottom mat cut from
Seaside Spray CS and then to a
Night of Navy Card Base.
For this last card the top mat was cut from
Pear Pizzazz CS, the bottom mat was cut from a piece of
Gray Shimmer CS in my stash, the card base was cut from
Mossy Meadow CS.
I stamped the top mat several times (1st & 2nd generation stampin) using the group of trees from the
Lovely As A Tree stamp set and
Mossy Meadow Ink.
The deer was cut using one of the
Detailed Dear Thinlits and the same
Gray Shimmer CS, and then attached to the center of the mat using
Tape Runner.
I taped 2 pieces of
Pear Pizzazz Shimmer Ribbon to the top and bottom of the top mat as shown.
The top mat was attached to the bottom mat and then the completed piece to the card base using
Tape Runner.
