Saying Goodbye to Lovely As A Tree!

It's been a while... but I'm back with the Stamping Symphony Blog Hop today! We're saying farewell to some of the retiring items. I'm sharing a card I featured in one of my Weekly on Wednesdays Facebook live video a couple of weeks ago. Check it out:


So many fun elements and layers to this card - a stamped background, some Designer Series Paper, faux stitching, ribbon & twine and hints of gold everywhere.


You can probably get a better peek at what I'm talking about in the picture above. Isn't it fun?! I used some Shimmer Paint and a Dauber to added the gold right to my stamps! For the little leaves, I daubed the gold to the stamp and stamped. For the tree, I first stamped in Tranquil Tide Ink (retiring June 3, 2019!) and then added hints of gold to the stamp before stamping. Just know that your dauber will also pick up the ink from the stamp.


Of course I can never forget the inside of the card! I added the same elements as the front. It adds a nice touch, I think!


I couldn't link directly to the video a couple of weeks ago on my Facebook Page, but I've now also uploaded it to my YouTube Channel, so you can find it there... along with all my other videos! ;)

Thanks for hopping by and don't forget to pop by my other Stamping Symphony friends to see what they're biding farewell to. If you'd like to recreate this card, I've included all the materials below and you can simply click the links to my Stampin' Up! storefront (but only if you don't already have a Canadian Demonstrator). If you'd like to buy this card, you can now find it in my ONLINE SHOP! So excited to be back selling online again.
