Oh my! You are going to LOVE the peeks today! We are featuring full sized set Woodland Winter plus the coordinating Trim the Tree Taylored Die Set, Mini Set Banner Holiday, Petite sets Moka Betty and Moka Hope and Word A la Carte – SNOW.
I have 2 samples today featuring Woodland Winter and the coordinating Trim the Tree Taylored Die Set. Honestly when my package arrived the very first thing I wanted to play with was the tree die set. I actually made 4 cards in my first sitting because I loved it so much! I’m sharing 2 today and I’ll share the other two at a later date. It coordinates with the tree stamp in Woodland Winter, but in both samples today, I used the tree without the stamp. I also used the Frame It Up 1 Die on both cards.
My first card also incorporates the new holiday sentiment set Banner Holidays which includes 16 sentiments formatted to fit into the Banner Day Dies 1, 2 , and 3. This mini set was illustrated by Taylor for the *te* collection. I used Banner Day 2 Die along with a banner frame image from It’s a Banner Day 2. The scalloped edge was created with the Medium Scallop Taylored Die. That adorable little mouse is from Woodland Winter. Papers are from the Echo Park 6×6 pad Holly Jolly Christmas. The layered pieces of the tree die are just slightly smaller than the whole tree, so I cut various patterns with the layers and adhered them to a white whole tree and then added sugar sparkly fluff for the look of snow on the edges..
On my second card I cut green layers from patterned paper and curled up the edges before attaching them to a green whole tree as the base. This card is a little more clean and simple and I used the Scallops and Circles Impression Plate on the red layer and the Musical/Swirls Imapression Plate on the white layer to add texture. The little squirell is popped up on foam tape.
Woodland Winter is a full size stamp set on a 5.75″ x 8.5″ full color sturdy storage panel. It features 21 images and sentiments illustrated by Doug Applegate fro the Apple Doodle Ink line and will be available Thursday for $21.95. Just wait till you see all the samples created by the Baker’s Dozen. So so cute! I’m dying to get more time to sit down and continue playing with this set!
