It's that time of the month again where the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop joins with the Happy Stampers Blog Hop. We are able to choose a sketch or colors. We can also do both. Take a peek at the sketch and the colors for today.
Here's my creation using the colors.
My card base is Merry Merlot. I took a mat of Whisper White and sponged it with Tranquil Tide. I added a strip of the Joyous Noel Designer Series Paper (I love the copper in this DSP package) and topped that with a strip of the Merry Merlot/Copper 5/8" Reversible Ribbon, securing it on the back.
I stamped the tree in Tranquil Tide using the Winter Woods stamp set. Since I thought there was no die for it, I fussy cut it and adhered it with dimensionals. Now that I'm posting I realize I have a die for it and just hadn't noted it on the stamp set! Time to reorganize again!
The sentiment is from Winter Woods. I stamped it in Versamark and used my heat tool to emboss it with Copper Emboss Powder.
For the inside, I used the bare trees stamp from the same set. I inked it up with Tranquil Tide and stamped it second generation. For the sentiment, I used Merry Merlot full strength; it's from the Timeless Tidings set.
