The 2nd Christmas Card Challenge I'm hosting, as a member of the Design Team, is to add a "Christmas Bird" on your card.
Here's what I created using the Stampin' Up! Perched in a Tree Stamp Set, Aspen Trees Dies, Stylish Shapes Dies and Deckled Circles Dies along with Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder and Joyful Specialty DSP.
For my card base, I used Cherry Cobbler cardstock.
The beautiful Joyful Specialty Paper was embossed using the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder and adhered onto the card base with dimensionals.
The bird was stamped using Memento ink and colored using Smoky Slate and Pumpkin Pie Stampin' Blends Markers, die cut and adhered with dimensionals.
The circle behind the bird was die cut using Deckled Circles Dies.
The branch was stamped using Pecan Pie ink onto Pecan Pie cardstock and die cut using the Aspen Trees Dies.
To achieve the fine strands behind the tree branch, I cut a piece of the Real Red & Gold Dotted Ribbon and pulled fibers from the ribbon, including some of the gold fibers to adhere behind the branch.
Two different embellishments were added on my card: Adhesive-Backed Snowflake Assortment and Adhesive-Backed Glitter Sequins. I layered three of the snowflakes with the glitter sequins and also added two glitter sequins around the sentiment.
The ribbon was also wrapped around the bottom portion of the card and held in place with Mini Glue Dots.
The sentiment was stamped using Versamark ink and heat set with Gold Embossing Powder and die cut using Stylish Shapes Dies. I mat the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock before adhering with dimensionals.
Specialty DSP was also added on the envelope flap.
Inside my card is Basic White cardstock with a strip of DSP and ribbon along the right. The sentiment was stamped using Cherry Cobbler ink.
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today.
