Winter Woods Pop & Twist Card

Winter Woods is such a versatile stamp set and today I used the stamp set with its coordinating framelits in a pop and twist card.

I had previously made all the components of this interactive card just waiting for an inspiration to finish it.  Today I finished it.

The Pop &Twist card is made using Garden Green card stock  All the DSP used is the Warmth & Cheer DSP, now retired.

The card front depicts a 2 layer dimensional tree against a plaid DSP.  The sentiment "Merry" is from the Merry Christmas Framelits  and is die cut using the Sparkle glimmer paper.

The card is kept closed using  a 1" Garden Green band, which is wrapped around the card and kept closed with tiny magnets.  This embellishment on the  front consists  of a 1 3/4" scallop circle layered with  a 1 1/2" glimmer paper circle and a 1 1/4" circle with the sentiment "Peace" stamped on it.  Some green rhinestones adds a bit of bling.

Opening the card reveals 4  pop up panels.

At the top is another Whisper White tree with a branch next to it. This image as do other images stand on snow in the form of Sparkle glimmer paper; at the bottom a large oval for the sentiment .

Some Frost White shimmer paint was lightly daubed over the trees and  directly onto the DSP.

On the two end panels I add a leafless tree die cut in Whisper White; the middle two I stamp the image of the birch trees multiple times with Crumb Cake on Whisper White.  For the left one I white emboss a sentiment on Garden Green and die cut it with the frame framelits found in the Merry Christmas framelit set.


On the other panel I adhere a wreath made with the single pine branch and a template using the Stamparatus.  After it was finished I die cut it using a circle framelit, added some real red berries with a marker, and added "Joy" in the middle with a strip notched at both ends.

The magic of this card is in the opening and closing.
