Winter Woods

Winter Woods is such a beautiful stamp set that can be used for any occasion, not just for holidays. I've used this set a lot but decided to make this card a Christmas card. I combined the colors Shaded Spruce and Mint Macaron together which I think are great together. I did use the retired DSP Frosted Floral Specialty Paper but it just went well with my card. So if you still have some, you might want to use it for your card too. Here are the instructions for my card:

Stamp Set: Winter Woods, Merry Christmas to All

Cardstock: Shaded Spruce, Mint Macaron, Frosted Floral Specialty DSP (Retired 2018)

Ink: Shaded Spruce

Other: Big Shot, Subtle Embossing Folder, Merry Christmas Thinlets Dies, Beautiful Boughs Dies, Sizzix Adhesive Sheets, Snail Adhesive, Dimensionals

1. The base of the card is Shaded Spruce cardstock cut at 4-1/4” x 11” and scored at 5-1/2” in the middle.

2. The second layer is Mint Macaron cardstock cut at 4” x 5-1/4” and inserted into the Subtle Embossing Folder and run through the Big Shot. Adhere to the front of the card.

3. Ink up the large pine tree from Winter Woods stamp set with Shaded Spruce ink and use the Stamparatus to center it onto the 2-7/8” x 3-5/8” Frosted Floral Specialty DSP. Layer onto the 2-1/2” x 3-1/2” Shaded Spruce cardstock. Adhere with Snail Adhesive to the front of the card towards the right side.

4. Use the Sizzix Adhesive Sheet on Shaded Spruce cardstock to die cut the “Merry” from the Merry Christmas Thinlets and the pines from the Beautiful Boughs Dies (2019 Holiday). Die cut through the Big Shot and adhere to the front of the card.

5. Ink up “Christmas” from Merry Christmas to All stamp set with Shaded Spruce on the Frosted Floral Specialty DSP and run it through the Subtle Embossing Folder and attached with Dimensionals to the card towards the left.
