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.

Sheltering Tree with Detachable Bookmark - a CASE

This card is a CASE from a card I saw on Pinterest.  The card was made by Debbie Henderson, and she made a video which was very helpful in learning how to make this card.  I hope to use this as a class card.

The card features Sheltering Tree, and has a detachable bookmark.

The base card is Old Olive cardstock, 5 1/4 by 10 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"  At the other end of the cardstock, a perforating line is made at the 2" mark.  This is done by changing the arm of the trimmer to an arm that has a perforating blade in it. (Note:  don't forget to change the cutting bar to the side without slits so that the blade does not cut through the paper)

Above is the front of the card.  Early Espresso is used on the trees, Old Olive for the trees and grass.

Inside is a sentiment from Big You.  You can see the bookmark still attached to the card.

The top of the tag is made using theAndleTag Topper punch.  The cardstock is inserted into the tag punch, centered and punched. 

Here are the supplies that are used to make the card:
