Snow wonder happy scene - two cool
 
Snow Wonder Happy Little Scene Cards
The Snow Wonder stamp set is perfect for creating little winter scenes like the ones on these two cool cards!  
 
Snow wonder happy scene - coastal
 
Background Basics—I stamped the Snow Wonder snowflakes image all over a Coastal Cabana card base with Pool Party ink. Next, I adhered a 2" x 4" piece of Trimming The Town Designer Series Paper for a pop of Poppy Parade color!
 
Snow wonder happy scene - coastal 3

Snow Scene—I stamped the Snow Wonder greeting in Coastal Cabana ink onto a 4-1/4" x 2-3/4" piece of Whisper White cardstock.  Next, I tied some Poppy Parade ribbon from the All The Trimmings Ribbon Pack around the layer and adhered it to the card front with SEAL. 

Snow wonder happy scene - coastal 2

Sweet Snowman—I stamped the Snow Wonder snowman in Memento Tuxedo Black onto Whisper White cardstock. I colored him in with Stampin' Blends Markers: Poppy Parade for the scarf and berries, Pool Party for the hat and snow shading, Shaded Spruce for the holly and Pumpkin Pie for the nose. I die-cut the snowman with the coordinating Snow Time dies, then popped him up with Dimensionals.

Terrific Trees—I stamped the Snow Wonder pine trees in Shaded Spruce ink onto Whisper White, then die-cut them with the Snow Time Dies. They are adhered to the background with SEAL.
 
Finishing Touches—I added three little Adhesive-Backed Snowflake accents for some sparkle!
 
Snow wonder happy scene - olive
 
Two Cool—This second version begins with a Pear Pizzazz card base stamped with snowflakes in Pear Pizzazz. I tried a different Trimming The Town DSP pattern on this one for a completely different look.
 
Snow wonder happy scene - olive 2

Snow Scene—The sentiment is stamped in Misty Moonlight and the trees are stamped in Mossy Meadow.
 
Snow wonder happy scene - olive 3

Sweet Snowman—I colored the scarf in Misty Moonlight, the hat in Poppy Parade and the holly in Old Olive.

Snow wonder happy christmas - two cool
 
Snow Wonder Happy Christmas Cards
This simple & sweet fun-fold is another easy-to-duplicate holiday with that adorable snowman from Snow Wonder.  
 
Snow wonder happy christmas - misty
 
Background Basics—The Whisper White Thick card base measures 5-1/2" x 6-1/2" on this card. I started with a traditional half-sheet of cardstock, then trimmed off the excess. Then, I cut that piece down to 2" x 5-1/4" and embossed it with the Winter Snow Embossing Folder before adhering it to the inside edge of the card. I adhered the Misty Moonlight snowflake pattern of Trimming The Town DSP to the front panel.
 
Snow wonder happy christmas - misty 2
Sweet Snowman—I stamped the Snow Wonder snowman in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink onto a 3" x 4" piece of Whisper White, then colored it it with Stampin' Blends Markers. I colored the hat and scarf in Pool Party, the holly in Old Olive, the berries in Real Red and the nose in Pumpkin Pie. Next, I stamped the snowflakes image twice in Misty Moonlight in the upper right corner. I matted the piece onto a 3-1/8" x 4-1/8" layer of Pool Party, then popped it up onto the front panel with Dimensionals. 
 
Finishing Touches—I stamped the sentiment onto a 2-3/4" x 5/8" piece of Whisper White, trimming the end into a fishtail and adhering it onto the card front. Three little Adhesive-Backed Snowflake accents add some well-coordinated sparkle!

Snow wonder happy christmas - misty 3
Inside The Card—I stamped a couple of snowflake images onto the 3" x 4" Whisper White piece on the inside. I love how this panel hides behind the front focal point perfectly!  

Snow wonder happy christmas - wreath
 
Two Cool—I couldn't wait to pair the Trimming The Town wreath-patterned paper with the wreath in the Snow Wonder set!  I started with a Pool Party card base, added that DSP to the front and embossed the inside strip with the Subtle Embossing Folder.
 
Snow wonder happy christmas - wreath 2
Sweet Snowman—In order to make the stamped wreath match the DSP wreaths a little better, I toned down the images by stamping in Smoky Slate ink. I colored the images the same as the first card, then layered it onto a Real Red panel. This time, the sentiment is on Pear Pizzazz.
 
Snow wonder happy christmas - wreath 3
Inside The Card—I added matching Smoky Slate snowflakes on the inside.

Create the first card in the Snow Wonder 5-card LIVE Class Kit, and make two each of both cards in the full Snow Wonder 12-Card Class Kit.

Snow wonder christmas wishes - two cool
 
Snow Wonder Christmas Wishes Cards
Here's a simple and easy-to-duplicate holiday card design featuring the Snow Wonder Bundle!  You will create two each of both of these cards as part of the 12-Card Snow Wonder Countdown To Christmas Class!
 
Snow wonder christmas wishes - olive
 
Background Basics—I started by embossing 3-3/4" x 5" piece of Whisper White cardstock with the Winter Snow Embossing Folder. It's mounted onto a .3-7/8" x 5-1/8" piece of Old Olive. I tied some Old Olive All The Trimmings Ribbon around the layers, then adhered it to the Real Red card base.
 
Snow wonder christmas wishes - olive 2

Sweet Sentiment—I stamped a Snow Wonder sentiment in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto a Pool Party Snow Time die-cut. It's adhered with SEAL onto the card front. 

Snow wonder christmas wishes - olive 3

Sensational Snowman—I stamped the Snow Wonder snowman in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto a Whisper White Stitched Shapes oval, then colored it with Stampin' Blends Markers. I used Old Olive for the hat and holly, Real Red for the berries and scarf, Pumpkin Pie for the nose and Pool Party for the snow. It's popped up with Dimensionals.

Sparkly Snowflakes—I added some Adhesive-Backed Snowflakes around the snowman for some sparkle. There are two iridescent color sheets of these super-cut and tiny snowflakes. I added the snowflakes that have a Pool Party sheen to them on this card. 

Snow wonder christmas wishes - bermuda
 
Two Cool—I changed the embossed background to Sahara Sand and layered it onto a Bermuda Bay mat. I tied it with the Poppy Parade All The Trimmings Ribbon on this one. 
 
Snow wonder christmas wishes - bermuda 2

Sweet Sentiment—I used the same sentiment on this card, but you could select the other larger phrase from the set...both fit nicely in the label die-cut.
 
Snow wonder christmas wishes - bermuda 3

Sweet Snowman—I changed his hat's color to Bermuda Bay on this one.

Sparkly Snowflake—I tried the Snowflake accents with a pinkish hue on this one and it picks up the Real Red card base color nicely.

Create the first card in the Snow Wonder 5-card LIVE Class Kit, and make two each of both cards in the full Snow Wonder 12-Card Class Kit.

Snowflake wishes - payzant swap
 
Cara's May Your Season Sparkle Swap Card
The first card today was created by Cara Payzant and I LOVE all of the pretty shimmery and shiny details! 
 
Background Basics—Cara began by adhering a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper to a Night of Navy card base. Next, she created a pretty banner with a 2" x 4-7/8" piece of Night of Navy. She stamped some snowflakes from the Snowflake Wishes stamp set in VersaMark ink randomly over the banner, sprinkled on Clear Embossing Powder and heat-set with the Heat Tool.
 
 
Snowflake wishes - payzant swap 2
 
Sweet Sentiment—Cara stamped a Snowflake Wishes sentiment in Night of Navy onto a 2-1/2" x 1-1/2" piece of Whisper White cardstock. She looped some Silver Metallic Thread and adhered it to the back of the sentiment layer before popping it up with Dimensionals. I love that subtle, shiny texture!
 
Sweet Snowflakes—Next, Cara used the So Many Snowflakes Dies to create a beautiful 3-layer snowflake. The largest snowflake is cut from Whisper White, then the medium snowflake from Night of Navy and brushed with Wink of Stella shimmer, then the smallest snowflake in Silver Foil. She topped the element with a single Blue Adhesive-Backed Gem. 
 
Snowflake wishes - unknown swap
 
Snowflake Wishes For A Merry Christmas Card
The second swap card didn't have a name attached to it, so if it's yours, please let me know! This one has lots of sparkly element, too!
 
Background Basics—The 3-7/8" x 5-1/8" layer of Highland Heather cardstock is decorated with 3-3/4" x 3" and a 3-3/4" x 2" pieces from the Snowflake Splendor DSP. Some Snowflake Splendor Ribbon is wrapped around the center before popping up the entire background onto a Misty Moonlight card base.
 
Snowflake wishes - unknown swap 2
 
Sweet Sentiment—The Snowflake Wishes sentiment is stamped in Highland Heather ink onto a 3-1/8" x 3/4" piece of Whisper White. It's layered onto a 3-3/8" x 1" strip of Balmy Blue Glimmer Paper. 
 
Sweet Snowflake—This card features a 2-layer So Many Snowflakes die-cut snowflake in Whisper White and Highland Heather. The card is adorned with Blue Gems on the snowflake center and floating around the background, too.

Snowflake Wishes For a Merry Christmas - Four cool
 
Snowflake Wishes For A Merry Christmas Cards
If you select the Countdown To Christmas Snowflake Wishes class kit, you'll make all 4 of these pretty holiday cards. The 5-Card LIVE Class Kit includes the first card only. Let's see how it's created!
 
Snowflake Wishes For a Merry Christmas - navy 1
 
Background Basics—I embossed a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Misty Moonlight cardstock with the beautiful Winter Snow Embossing Folder, then adhered a 4" x 2" piece of Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper across the bottom. I wrapped a piece of lovely iridescent Snowflake Splendor Ribbon across the top of the DSP, securing the ends on the back, then mounted the layers onto a Night of Navy card base.
 
 
Snowflake Wishes For a Merry Christmas - navy 2
 
Sensation Snowflakes—The snowflake collage focal point is so fun to make! Pick 4 snowflake images and stamp each in a wintery coordinating color and you have a beautiful background onto a Whisper White Stitched Rectangle die-cut!  I started by stamping the largest snowflake twice in Misty Moonlight, added the next largest snowflake a few times in Highland Heather, stamped the next smallest snowflake in Pool Party and finished by stamping the multi-snowflake image in Balmy Blue to fill in the gaps. Make sure the snowflakes go off the edge of the die-cut and overlap for the best look! 
 
I popped up the layer with Dimensionals onto the card front.
 
Snowflake Wishes For a Merry Christmas - navy 3
 
Sweet Sentiment—I stamped a Snowflake Wishes greeting in Misty Moonlight ink onto a 3-1/4" x 3/4" piece of Pool Party, then adhere it onto the top of the snowflake layer with SEAL adhesive.
 
Finishing Touches—I finished by die-cutting a Night of Navy snowflake with the So Many Snowflakes dies and attaching it with a Glue Dot. I topped it with a Blue Adhesive-Backed Gem. A totally cool card in my favorite Too Cool colors!
 
Snowflake Wishes For a Merry Christmas - navy 4
 
Two Cool—The second card uses the identical elements on a horizontal card. The only difference is the snowflake images used on the stamped focal point. Which do you like best, vertical or horizontal? You can create your favorite style with the kit!
 
Snowflake Wishes For a Merry Christmas - grape 2
 
Three Cool—I experimented with a different color combination for the other two cards from the Countdown To Christmas kit.  This one begins with a Highland Heather embossed layer, a different pattern of Snowflake Splendor DSP and a Gorgeous Grape card base.
 
Snowflake Wishes For a Merry Christmas - grape 3
Finishing Touches—The sentiment is stamped in Pacific Point ink this time on the same Pool Party element. I finished with a Gorgeous Grape die-cut topped with the Blue Gems.
 
Snowflake Wishes For a Merry Christmas - grape 1
Four Cool—Here's a vertical version of the Gorgeous Grape color...all elements are otherwise the same. Love it!

Snowflake Wishes Recessed Window Cards
There are so many fantastic products in the Snowflake Splendor Suite, and the Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper is certainly the show-stopper! With it's cool blues & aqua watercolor images, it create a lovely color palette for beautiful wintery cards! Today's projects feature this pretty paper as part of the card front, so you can enjoy both sides of this double-sided DSP! 
 
Snowflake Wishes Recessed Window - pacific
 
Background Basics—You can create this card with supplies in the 5-Card LIVE Class Kit!  I started with a 5-1/4" x 5-1/2" piece of Pacific Point cardstock, scored along the 5-1/4" side at the 4-1/4" mark. This leaves a 1" panel for the card front. I cut a 4" x 5-1/2" piece of Snowflake Splendor DSP and adhered it to the skinny panel to complete the card front.
 
Snowflake Wishes Recessed Window - pacific 3
 
Double-Sided DSP—Since the DSP is the card front, you can enjoy the beautiful backside of the paper when you open the card! I decorated the inside with a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Whisper White cardstock, stamped with Snowflake Wishes snowflakes in Pacific Point, Highland Heather and Balmy Blue.
 
Snowflake Wishes Recessed Window - pacific 2
Snowflake Windows—I used a couple of snowflake dies from the So Many Snowflakes Dies set to cut two windows out of the top right of a 3-1/2" x 4-3/4" piece of Whisper White cardstock. I saved those snowflake die-cuts, so I could use them on another card, which I'll share with you tomorrow!  Next, I stamped some snowflake images from the Snowflake Wishes stamp set in Pacific Point and Highland Heather inks. Then, I popped up the layer over the card front with Dimensionals, creating pretty recessed windows. My favorite!
 
Sweet Sentiment—I stamped the Snowflake Wishes sentiment in Pacific Point ink onto a Purple Posy Stitched Shapes circle. It's popped up, too!
 
Finishing Touches—I added the popular Blue Adhesive-Backed Gems to the centers of the two recessed snowflake windows, as well as one of the stamped snowflake images. Love that sparkle!
 
Snowflake Wishes Recessed Window - navy
 
Two Cool—For the second card, I began with a Night of Navy card base and adhered the same pattern of Snowflake Splendor DSP on the front. This time, however, I adhered the DSP to the top of the skinny card front panel, rather than behind it. This allows the DSP to create a complete border around the recessed windows layer. Either way is fun!
 
Snowflake Wishes Recessed Window - navy 3
 
The skinny card front panel is showing on the inside of this card.
 
Snowflake Wishes Recessed Window - navy 2
Recessed Layer—I stamped this one with Balmy Blue and Misty Moonlight Snowflake Wishes images. The sentiment is in Misty Moonlight on the same Purple Posy circle die-cut.

Poinsettia Petals Happy Holidays cards - two cool
 
Poinsettia Petals Happy Holidays Cards
Oooh...I'm loving these pretty poinsettia flowers in traditional Christmas red! I spotlighted them against the backdrop of the more subtle patterns from the Poinsettia Place Designers Series Paper pack and designed a fun opening.
 
Poinsettia Petals Happy Holidays cards - shaded
 
Background Basics—This card base begins with a 8-3/4" x 4-1/4" piece of Shaded Spruce cardstock, scored at the 3-1/4" mark.  I added a 3" x 4" piece of that Poinsettia Place DSP on the front panel.
 
Poinsettia Petals Happy Holidays cards - shaded 3
 
Fun Opening—I decorated the inside right of the card with a 2-1/2" x 4" piece of Shaded Spruce cardstock that was embossed with the Pinewood Planks 3D Embossing Folder. I cut two pieces of 3-3/4" x 2-1/2" Whisper White cardstock and adhered one of them on the inside of the card for the message area. I mounted it in the center of the inside and it will be hidden by the card front center panel.
 
Sweet Sentiment—I stamped a Poinsettia Petals sentiment in Shaded Spruce ink on the bottom right corner of the other piece of Whisper White. It's mounted onto a 4" x 2-3/4" piece of Shaded Spruce, then popped up with Dimensionals onto the card front, so it overlaps the inside message panel.
 
Finishing Touches—I added a couple of Gilded Gems on the inside layer so it shows through when the card is closed. 
 
Poinsettia Petals Happy Holidays cards - shaded 4
 
Pretty Poinsettia—I created the beautiful flower using the Poinsettia Dies, cutting the three Real Red layers with a combination of the outline dies and the embossing dies. You can run them together through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine and the result is amazing! They look so real!  I gently curved the petals and bent them up, layering them together with Glue Dots. I also added the large and small Poinsettia Dies leaves die-cuts in Garden Green to match the DSP. I finished by die-cutting a small flower center in Gold Foil and attaching it with a Glue Dot.
 
 
Poinsettia Petals Happy Holidays cards - suede
 
Two Cool—For the second version of this card, I switched out the Shaded Spruce card base with Soft Suede. That neutral color really puts the poinsettia flower front and center!

Poinsettia Petals Merry Christmas cards - two cool
 
Poinsettia Petals Merry Christmas Cards
Our second Countdown To Christmas Class Kit features the beautiful images and die-cuts from the Poinsettia Petals Bundle!  This is the first set of cards from the 12-Card Class Kit...you'll create two each of these two layouts. If you choose the FREE 5-Card LIVE Class Kit, you'll receive supplies to create the red berries version!
 
Poinsettia Petals Merry Christmas cards - red
 
Background Basics—I adhered a 3-1/2" x x4" piece of the berries Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper onto a Thick Very Vanilla card base. Then, I embossed a 1-3/4" x 4" piece of Real Red cardstock with one of the mini Wrapped In Texture Embossing Folder and adhered it next to the DSP.  A 5-1/4" x 1/2" strip of Gold Foil gives a little shine to the bottom of the card. I finished the background by wrapping some Real Red Sheer Ribbon around the card front, tying it into a double-knot.
 
Poinsettia Petals Merry Christmas cards - red 2
 
Pretty Poinsettias—I stamped the Poinsettia Petals poinsettia flower image in Crumb Cake ink twice onto Very Vanilla cardstock, then brushed on some shimmering Wink of Stella glimmer. The flowers are die-cut with the Poinsettia Dies. If you get the stamp set...you just have to get the coordinating dies! It really ups the versatility and makes it so easy to cut out these flower images! The flowers are popped up with Dimensionals.
 
Sweet Sentiment—I stamped the Poinsettia Petals sentiment onto a 3-1/2" x 3/4" strip of Very Vanilla in Soft Suede ink. I fish-tail cut the end of the banner and adhered it to the card front with SEAL adhesive over the Gold Foil.
 
Finishing Touches—I added a couple of medium size Gilded Gems to the flower centers.
 
Poinsettia Petals Merry Christmas cards - green
 
Two Cool—The second version of this card layout is essentially the same with a different pattern of Poinsettia Place DSP and a Garden Green cardstock panel embossed with the other Wrapped In Texture folder.

In The Pines Patchwork Pine Tree Cards

Hi Stamping Friends!
 
It's time to start making those holiday cards and getting them done EARLY, so you're not rushing at the last minute. I can't tell you how many times I ended up not sending Christmas cards, simply because I ran out of time...and I'm a cardmaker! Don't let this happen to you! This year, more than most years, I think we really NEED to be connecting with our friends and loved ones with a thoughtful card, since our in-person connections have been so limited. Don't wait! Let me help you get those cards done a little bit at a time with my Countdown To Christmas Card Series! All the details are below. We can do it together and your loved ones will appreciate the warm winter wishes!
 
Today, I'm sharing my last group of cards from my first Countdown To Christmas Class featuring In The Pines!  Registration is only open until September 17!

FREE Iridescent Pearls With Host Code 4KHT3CSV—I had to cancel this week's LIVE Class and I hate to do that! So, I decided to offer a limited-time special instead. From today thru Wednesday, September 16, 2020, place a minimum $50 with me and I'll send you a FREE pack of Iridescent Pearls! These pretty multi-color pearls are part of the Magic in this Night Halloween suite, but they are equally awesome to use for wintery cards! 140 pearls per pack!

In The Pines Patchwork Pine Tree Cards
This is one of the three designs we'll be making in the In The Pines Countdown To Christmas Class. I am providing two different colors of card backgrounds, then you can use the 'Tis The Season 6x6" Designer Series Paper in your kit to mix & match your favorite red & green patchwork background. I'll give you four options, but there are all kinds of possibilities!
 
In The Pines four block - white snowflakes
Background Basics—Two of the four patchwork cards begin with a Whisper White Thick card base and a Mint Macaron textured element. The 1-3/4" x 5-1/2" piece of Mint Macaron on the first card is embossed with the Winter Snow Embossing Folder...one of my faves for this season!  I stamped the In The Pines greeting in Cherry Cobbler ink along the bottom of the card base.
 
In The Pines four block - white snowflakes 2
 
Patchwork Blocks—I selected two each of two patterns of 'Tis The Season DSP for my blocks, each measuring 1-1/2" x 2". I tried to select one green pattern along with a red pattern; one more striped or plaid and one more "flowery" patterned. I adhered them to a 3-1/4" x 4-1/4" piece of Whisper White, then adhered it to the card front with SEAL adhesive.
 
In The Pines four block - white snowflakes 3
 
Pretty Pines—I stamped the two In The Pines outline tree images in Shaded Spruce onto Whisper White cardstock, then stamped the "fill" two-step image in Mint Macaron ink. Before the ink dried completely, I used a Wink of Stella glimmer brush to color over the image. The color bleeds a little bit to soften and spread the filled color, while the shimmer is being added. I die-cut the trees with the coordinating Pine Woods Dies.
 
Finishing Touches—I adhered the larger pine tree die-cut to a Whisper White Stitched Shapes circle, then popped up the skinnier tree with Dimensionals over the top. I finished by attaching a Linen Thread bow to the larger tree trunk with a Glue Dot. 
 
In The Pines four block - crumb weave
 
Two Cool—The second style starts with a Crumb Cake card base and a textured strip in the same color. This time, the 1-3/4" x 5-1/2" Crumb Cake strip is embossed with one of the Wrapped In Texture mini embossing folders with a weave pattern. 
 
In The Pines four block - crumb weave 2
 
I selected two different patterns of 'Tis The Season DSP on this one. Everything else is just like the first card.
 
In The Pines four block - crumb bricks

Three Cool—The third card is another Crumb Cake card base with a Brick & Mortar 3D embossed texture and two more DSP patterns.
 
In The Pines four block - white dots
 
Four Cool—The final card in this group has the Thick Whisper White card base with a Mint Macaron piece embossed with the other Wrapped In Texture Mini Embossing Folder. Two more patterns from the DSP, too, and still many more combinations from which to choose!  So fun & festive!

Oooh...In The Pines with Embossed Backgrounds

Hi Stamping Friends!
 
I hope you had a wonderful weekend and a fun & relaxing holiday if you're from here in the United States. I'm so sad to see the winding down of the summer. Is it me or does it seem like we didn't really get a summer because of all of the weirdness? Regardless...we are coming into one of my favorite times of year...fall and holiday crafting!  Last week, I featured the In The Pines bundle for my LIVE class and also introduced it as part of my first Countdown To Christmas card class. I can already tell by the response that you're loving this awesome bundle and are ready for the holiday crafting to start, too!  Woohoo!
 
Today, I'm sharing two of the cards you'll be able to create with the 5-Card LIVE Class Kit. These are the two card designs that are not available in the 12-Card Countdown To Christmas class. There are just two days to earn the 5-Card LIVE Class Kit, so place your order today! Details for both classes are linked below.

In The Pines White Evergreen emboss 1
 
In The Pines With Winter Snow Texture Card
Wintery white with sparkly blue! I love the color combination on this pretty In The Pines card. I also love that it's really a super-simple card to create, so it's perfect for duplicating for a stack of Christmas cards!
 
Background Basics—I started by embossing a 5" x 3-3/4" piece of Whisper White cardstock with the lovely snowflakes from theWinter Snow Embossing Folder. I layered it onto a 5-1/8" x 3-7/8" piece of Balmy Blue. Then, I tied some Snowflake Splendor Ribbon around the layers. With it's wintery iridescent shimmer, this ribbon is perfect for snow-themed cards. I finished by mounting the layers onto a Thick Whisper White card base.
 
In The Pines White Evergreen emboss 2
 
Pretty Pines—I die-cut two pretty pines with the Pine Woods Dies from the In The Pines Bundle; the larger pine in Balmy Blue Glimmer Paper and the thin pine in Pool Party cardstock. I adhered the trees with small dabs of Multipurpose Liquid Glue. You'll have to hold it down for 30 seconds or so to make sure the glue is secure, since it is layered over the ribbon.
 
Sweet Sentiment—I stamped the In The Pines greeting in Misty Moonlight ink onto a Stitched Shapes oval die-cut in Whisper White. It's popped up with Dimensionals. I finished by adding one Blue Adhesive-Backed Gem as a pretty coordinating accent.
 
In The Pines Jade Evergreen emboss 1
 
In The Pines With Evergreen Forest Texture Card
I'm so in love with the new Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder! I shared a horizontal card using this folder last week that you can see here, but it's fantastic for vertical cards, too!  
 
Background Basics—I started by embossing a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Just Jade cardstock with the Evergreen Forest Folder and adhering it to a Just Jade card base. I also added a 4" x 3/8" strip of 'Tis The Season Designer Series Paper along the bottom to give it a pop of red.
 
In The Pines Jade Evergreen emboss 2

Pretty Pines—I stamped the multiple pines image from the In The Pines stamp set with Shaded Spruce ink that was stamped off onto a 4" x 2-1/4" piece of Whisper White. The image was stamped two times on the upper part of the piece, leaving plenty of room for a sentiment. I added a Shaded Spruce Pine Woods die-cut with Multipurpose Liquid Glue over the stamped images.
 
Finishing Touches—I added a Real Red In The Pines sentiment at the bottom of the layer before mounting it onto the card front. I finished by placing two Red Rhinestones next to the die-cut and in line with the sentiment.
