Easy snowy scenes | Video Post with Lovely As a Tree Stamp Set GDP067

Hi and welcome to my blog! I made easy and quick  snowy scenes  using blue, pink and purple ink colours and Lovely As a Tree Stamp Set by Stampin’ Up!   for the  challenge  this week on Global Design Project.

All of us are making cards with images of trees.

I used Elegant Eggplant, Night of Navy, Pool Party, Melon Mambo, Sweet Sugar Plum and basic black ink colours  or a combination of them to make the snowy scenes in this blog post.

The first card I want to show you today  is a Snow Globe Shaker Card using Jar of love stamp set and circle dies.   I  CASE a brilliant idea by Jason Loucks to make it! You  can see Jason’s idea and more instructions HERE .  

I stamped the trees with clear Versamark ink and white embossing powder then  using the stamp-a-majic I stamped with Pear Pizzazz ink  the trees again  but this time I stamp them slightly to one side of the first image so that  I tried to create an effect of dimension, embossed image or a shadow. 

With a sponge I applied the colours at the background. 

The stars  and the sentiment  are  from Forever Evergreen stamp set . 

I stamped the jar’s lead  and the bow in Jar of love Stamp set  with gold embossing powder to be used as base of the bubble and its embellishment.

I also bought “Viola” sequins pack   from Lucy’s cards to complete this shaker card. 

I love so much the colours at the background of this shaker card that  I decided to  make more cards with snowy scenes to share  with you.  One important product I’m using to make this projects is masking fluid . Here in the UK I use Artits’ blue mask by Frisk art and craft materials.  You  can see more details in my video tonight.

For the card above I  used Holly Jolly Greetings Stamp set  and coordinating dies called Christmas Greetings and to embellish I used  gold metallic thread, sequins and a wee banner as finishing touches.

For the card above, I  applied dots  of  Tombow multiglue on the tree’s branches and  then I added gold glitter from Stampin’ Up!

I also created a banner with a square stitch die ( I elongated the shape as shown in the video tutorial here)  then  I stamped and  embossed a sentiment from Wondrous Wreath Stamp Set  by Stampin’ Up! I used WOW Gold Rich Pale Super Fine embossing power which is a pretty vibrant gold colour.

The card above  is even more simply, I  just pasted some sequins and a banner with a sentiment from Embellished  Ornaments Stamp Set by Stampin’ Up! 

Oh! I cant forget to mention that I also applied  clear Wink of Stella over the tree images in all the cards today.

Thats all!

I hope you enjoy the cards today .  I know the techniques used to make them and the whole idea are not new and you can find loads of inspirations online by making a search for : snowy scenes ,  but I wanted to make my own.

These cards are also  a perfect last minute project as they are easy and quick  and by making them you can  think in something beautiful and relax a little bit during winter times.

Let me know what do you think about them? I would love to hear from you.
