CARD DETAILS
I used the new Sage cardstock from Simon Says Stamp, this is a stunning muted green, perfect addition to the current Simon’s color family. I cut the cardstock in half and scored it at the 4 ¼” mark to create A2 cards.
Next, I selected a beautiful cabin image and a holiday sentiment and stamped both in VersaClair Nocturne ink on the front of my card base. I went with 3 different sentiments to make slightly different cards.
I used Polychromors pencils by Faber Castell to add a bit of color; first – white to add snow under the cabin, in front of the fence, over the roof and windows; and a light and a dark green to add shading to the tree. Stunning!
A bit of falling snow was added around the image framing it, I used a Sakura gelly roll 0.8 pen to add the snow dots. Lastly, I embellished the tree using gems from Spellbinders, the smallest gems were the perfect size to create the ornaments for the tree. I used white, silver and gold. Red would also look stunning!
I hope you like this idea and will try this card design. Be sure to check out the new cardstock colors from Simon, they are simply perfect and bring a breath of fresh air to cardmaking!
Have fun stamping!
