I’m thrilled you are here to join us each Monday evening for the AWHT Heart of Christmas Blog Hop showcasing Stampin’ Up! seasonal products.
Week 2
Today I feature the Forever Forest stamp set & coordinating Forever Forest dies in this fun slimline design.
A Thick Basic White cardbase 20cm x 21cm scored at 10cm. A Basic White layer dry embossed with the So Swirly 3D embossing folder is adhered. A strip of Shy Shamrock card is adhered to a slightly wider strip of Basic Black card, then dry embossed with the Snowflake Sky 3D embossing folder and adhered across the centre.

The label is cut using a die from the Something Fancy dies. After cutting it and before I removed it from the metal die, I placed it on my silicone mat and used the stylus to run around the inside edges to give it the raised border. The snow was stamped in Pool Party ink, before adhering the gorgeous tree die cut in some Shy Shamrock Glimmer paper. This is adhered to the card on Dimensionals.

The sentiment from the Trucking Along stamp set is die cut (Something Fancy dies) and adhered on dimensionals. The ribbon is coloured with the Light Shy Shamrock Stampin’ Blends Marker, tied in a bow and added on a Glue Dot.

The inside has 3 smaller Glimmer trees to carry over the design.
Thanks for dropping by. I hope you join me next Monday for more Christmas inspiration!
Please enjoy the wonderful inspiration of our next team member, Cathy Proctor.

Lovely card Kate. I especially like the amount of white space you have created, the way the embossing looks like snow storms, and the colouring of the ribbon. Inspiring!
