IC363 Sparkly Evergreen

Photo Details

Poster: artystamper

Several items in today's Inspiration Web site, Fishs Eddy, made me think of stamps that I had so I ended up making 3 cards!

For this card I was inspired by this hummingbird apron but I focused on the branch rather than the bird (which I didn't even notice at first!)

I stamped this framed evergreen branch from Rubbernecker on blue card stock, layered it to a slightly embossed piece of blue and layered those to a black embossed panel. I tied white wrinkled seam tape around the whole thing before layering it to the white card base. I added Stickles to the branch for a little sparkly 'snow'!

I could use this for a Christmas/Holiday card or a winter thank you or birthday!

...sure it’s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?

Stunning! The textures are just lovely and offset your sparkly image so nicely. You're right, this is a very versatile winter card. Truly beautiful!

BEAUTIFUL card, Julia...and as you said, it would be appropriate for many winter/Christmas occasions. Love the "snowy" embossed back panel and the snowy sparkle on the pine bough. The crinkly ribbon finishes it off.
