Welcoming Woods

This wintery card is made using the stamp set Welcoming Woods on page 46 of the 2021 Holiday Mini for $21. The bunny is from Nature's Beauty. I have a lot of bunnies in my yard, so wanted to use him on my card.

I was inspired by Gail O'Neill's video. Here are the instructions for my card:

Stamp Sets: Welcoming Woods, Nature’s Beauty

Cardstock: Thick Basic White, Gay Granite, Basic White, Basic Black, Balmy Blue

Ink: Gray Granite, Black Memento, Versamark, White Embossing Powder, Balmy Blue

Stampin’ Blends: Gray Granite

Other: Paper Trimmer, Paper Snips, Blending Brush, Heat Tool, Dimensionals, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Black Micro Pigment Ink Pen

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

2. The second layer is Gray Granite cardstock cut at 4” x 5-1/4” and stamped with the snowflake stamp around the edges with Gray Granite ink.

3. The Basic Black layer is 3-5/8” x 4-5/8”.

4. The Basic White layer is 3-1/2” x 5-1/2” and the inked up the tree stamps with Gray Granite more towards the top. Then using Versamark, add the snowflakes. Sprinkle White Embossing Powder over them and shake off excess. Heat set with the Heat Tool.

5. Using The Blending Brush and Balmy Blue ink, color in the sky.

6. For the ground, color in with a Blending Brush and Gray Granite. Use the Stampin’ Blend to create the shadows of the trees.

7. Ink up the bunny from Nature’s Beauty, and color him in with the Gray Granite Stampin’ Blend and a Black Micro Pigment Ink pen for the eye and details of the bunny.

8. Adhere him to the left side of the card with Dimensionals. Ink up the sentiment with Black Memento on 7/8” x 2-1/4” Balmy Blue cardstock. Adhere to the right side of the card.
