This week, we’re making our way through the woods as we feature a whole array of woodsy products from the Stampin’ Up! lineup. Today, we’re dreaming of winter with this diamond fold card design featuring the Thoughtful Journey designer series paper and Frosted Forest bundle.
Stampin’ Up! has released some gorgeous watercolored patterned paper packs over the last year, and I think I have loved each and every one. I thought it would be fun to use the snowy scene paper from the Thoughtful Journey paper pack and create a pop-out using Frosted Forest since the evergreens closely resembled those in the paper. So let’s see how it all comes together.
We get started with a base of Blackberry Bliss cardstock. I love how this really pulls forward the purple hues in the patterned paper. Our diamond panel leaves a little of the Blackberry Bliss peeking around the edges and the mat for our panel is a piece of white glimmer cardstock to be reminiscent of twinkling snowdrifts. I used the Frosted Forest masks to create the evergreen using a combination of Blackberry Bliss, Fresh Freesia, Night of Navy, and Misty Moonlight inks and then diecut it using the coordinating Frosted Forest die. I went over the tree with Wink of Stella and added iridescent ribbon for added sparkle on the diamond panel. The sentiment from Saying Hey is stamped in black on white cardstock and then diecut using the Happy Little Things banner die. A few iridescent faceted gems finish things off nicely with an additional twinkly touch.
Isn’t this just a gorgeous scene?! Today’s card is a part of the Luv 2 Stamp Group Instagram Hop, which goes live today at 9 AM Pacific Time (PST).
