I started with Crumb Cake cardstock for the
cardbase and then added a layer of Very Vanilla cardstock that was embossed
with the Big Shot and Woodland Embossing Folder (then I
sponged it lightly with Soft Suede ink, I really like this technique to color
the trees). Next I used the Thoughtful Branches stamp set and
coordinating framelist to make the tree trunk (Early Espresso) and tree leaves
(Wild Wasabi), as well as the cute little bird (Cherry Cobbler). After gluing the trunk and leaf piece to the
cardfront I used piece of dimensional
to attach the bird and then added a tiny pearl
for his eye.
The greeting is from the Suite Sayings stamp set and was stamped with Cherry Cobbler ink on
Very Vanilla cardstock before being cut out with the Big Shot and Project Life
Cards and Labels Framelits. I
sponged around the edge of the greeting with Crumb cake ink and then attached
it to the cardfront with dimensionals. The final touch, a double bow I tied using Linen Thread and then attached with a
glue dot.
This is a great masculine card but could easily work for ladies as well and I love how it’s really easy to put together once you stamp and cut all the pieces. And the details are sure to impress whoever receives it (and it can be our secret to how quick and easy it is!!) I’ve seen so many great ideas with the set you’ll definitely use it for all sorts of projects and occasions.
