The Winter Jubilee card kit from Simon Says Stamp was released yesterday and it is definitely a new favourite, but I guess I always say that lol!! ;) I love the colours, the holiday themed stamp set, and the Lawn Fawn patterned papers! Everything goes together so well!
For my card today, I decided to stay really simple and let the stamped and embossed trees be the focal point on the card.
I stamped the two different sized trees with Versamark ink on the white cardstock that comes in the kit and heat embossed them with Turquoise Antiquities embossing powder and Verdigris Antiquities embossing powder.
These embossing powders are the most amazing aqua and green colours with little specks of gold (in the Verdigris) and silver (in the Turquoise) that when embossed, leave an amazing colour and texture. I wish you could see how awesome they are in the photos.
I also used the snow stamp and stamped it all over the background and heat embossed it with Silver Pearl embossing powder. It leaves a great shimmery colour that isn't too bold but still stands out enough to appreciate it. ;)
I cut all of the trees out and then adhered them to the snowy background. I used foam adhesive on the middle tree to make it stand it out.
To complete the card, I stamped the Be Joyful sentiment on the bottom and added one of the enamel bows to the center tree for a pop of colour. I matted the finished piece onto a red piece of cardstock from the kit and then adhered it to the card base with foam adhesive.
