Winter Walk

Happy Saturday Everyone!  Julie here, with a monochromatic wintery card using Artistic Outpost stamp sets, Winter Walk and Skating Emporium.

I know spring has sprung but I do like to create winter cards all year long and Winter Walk along with Skating Emporium are the perfect pair!

I stamped the Winter Walk image onto white cardstock with an embossing ink, heat embossed with forest green embossing powder and I created the resist by applying TH Old Paper and Tea Dye Distress Inks to the surface and wiping off the excess.

I created the texture for the background by inking the TH Winter Knit embossing folder with forest green ink before embossing the brown sugar cardstock, spritzing with champagne mist shimmer paint spray, trimming the panel and stitching it to a piece of forest green cardstock.

I cut the lacy border with the ODBD Beautiful Borders Dies from forest green cardstock, added the border to the panel along with a strip of light gold satin ribbon and pearls.

I mounted the entire background panel to the brown sugar card base, added the layered Winter Walk image with dimensional foam and added the gold embossed sentiment from Skating Emporium.

I finished off the card with several pine needle branches cut from forest foliage cardstock using the ODBD Lovely Leaves Die along with a triple satin ribbon bow.

Don’t forget, we would love to see what you are creating with your Artistic Outpost stamps and you have a few more days to participate with our March Show Us Your AO Art Challenge- click here for details.
