Snow Front Christmas Wishes - Try Stampin' on Tuesday #431

One of my favourite stamp sets of the Holiday catalogue is the Snow Front stamp set.  The versatility in creating winter scenes is absolutely amazing and used it exclusively to make swap cards for On Stage November 19, 2019
So, for the sketch challenge with Try Stampin' on Tuesday #431 (with the optional theme of stripes) I used this stamp set again



The focal image is a winter scene created on a 4 by 2" Whisper White tag made using the Angled tag punch.
I started by using a sponge brayer to apply Balmy Blue and Blueberry Bushel ink to create the sky.  The trees were then stamped with Shaded Spruce ink in first and second generation stamping.  After adding the two deer some puff paint and glitter was added to mimic snow.

A tooth pick and white acrylic paint was used to create the stars in the sky and whisper white polka dot ribbon inserted through the tag top.




The tag was matted with Blueberry Bushel card stock and a sentiment, from Itty Bitty Christmas punched with the Classic Label punch was added at the top right.


This tag was added to the right side of the Blueberry striped card front.  This background was made using the Diagonal Stripe Background stamp.  The striped layer was adhered to a Whisper White layer and then to a Blueberry Bushel card base.

On the inside, I stamped the image of the deer standing beside a tree.

Supplies Used:
Stamps:  Snow Front, Itty Bitty Christmas, Diagonal Stripe Background
Inks:  Blueberry Bushel, Balmy Blue, Early Espresso, Dark Seaside Spray Stampin' Blend, Shaded Spruce
Papers:  Blueberry Bushel, Whisper White
Accessories: 5/8" White Polka Dot Tulle ribbon, Angle topper tag punch, Classic Label Punch, Dimensionals, Puff Paint, SU Glitter
