Yuletide Village with Frosted Forest trees in an arch

This is the card that I used for my monthly November swap. The theme was "Christmas Card" but although there is no message on the outside, there is on the inside "From Our House to Yours" from the Humble Home stamp set. I used lots of Wink of Stella for the roof and ground. I was inspired by Karin Sommer Braxton's card.

Stamp Set: Yuletide Village and Humble Home

Cardstock: Thick Basic White, Basic White, Sentimental Christmas DSP, White Glimmer Paper from Berry Burst, Old Olive & White Specialty Paper

Ink: Tuxedo Black Memento

Stampin’ Blends: Shaded Spruce, Daffodil Delight, Soft Sea Foam

Other: Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine, Frosted Forest Dies (3 trees), Garden Meadow Dies (arch), Multipurpose Glue, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Pearls from Cherry Cobbler & Pearl Adhesive Backed Berries, Wink of Stella

1. The base of the card is Thick Back White cardstock cut at 5-1/2” x 8-1/2” and scored at 4-1/4” in the middle.

2. The DSP is cut at 3-3/4” x 5” and adhered to the front base of the card.

3. Cut Basic White cardstock at 4” x 5-1/4” and use the arch die. Adhere to the card except for the very bottom.

4. Die-cut the trees from the White Glimmer Paper and insert into the bottom with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. May need to trim off part of the ground.

5. Ink up the house image with Tuxedo Black Memento on Basic White but leaving some of the white ground when trimming it out with the Paper Snips. Color it in with the Stampin’ Blends. Adhere in front of the trees with Stampin’ Dimensionals at the top and Multipurpose Glue at the bottom.

6. Use Multipurpose Glue at the bottom of the frame when satisfied.

7. Use lots of Wink of Stella on the roof and ground covering.

8. Add Peal Adhesive Backed Berries.
