A Great Tree card made with just one stamp



TUTORIAL VIDEO

Good Morning Ladies,

I hope that you are all well and managing to keep warm and dry, I spoke to my mum yesterday and she spoke of snow later this week, although I'm not sure where, I don't mind the snow as long as everyone can stay home and not have to travel to work!

Today's 'Tree' Challenge card is one that I made last year, I think it's a great card to make to post as it's completely flat and you only actually need the one Tree stamp to create that Winter Forest look.
I actually did a video Tutorial on this card as I thought it looked super effective without taking much time or skill, so it makes a great card for batch making Christmas cards.

For this card I used the Fir tree from SU Winter Woods but you could use any fir tree, many companies make Christmas style trees.  You also only need one ink pad, for one of these cards I used Memento Paris Dusk, the other was SU Night of Navy.
I also did one card with a white mat and one without so that you could see the difference that adding a little bit of white makes.  The snow effect is a combination of water flicked onto the background and a white posca pen. You can even use a quickie glue pen and add glitter.
I hope that that gives you a little inspiration my lovelies.

I hope that you all have a lovely day, however you are spending it,

Love and hugs to all of you,

Sandra

    Sandra-gorgeous Cards & perfect for this weeks challenge. I hope you’re feeling a bit better today.

    We’ve had gale force winds & heavy rain all night and it’s still the same this morning. Hopefully the forecast is correct and it’s stops around midday.

    Hope everyone is safe & dry.

  5. Hello Sandra and ladies,
    Two lovely cards, I enjoyed watching the video again, it’s always good to give those brain cells a reminder...... thank you for that Sandra.
    I hope you are starting feeling a little brighter, it always surprises me how long it takes to get back to normal after a serious bout of flu. Take care and DON’T try and start doing things before you are really better. xx

    To all of our friends feeling poorly or under the weather please take care, I hope you will feel brighter soon. xx

    Sending hugs for everyone, Brenda xxx
