I was trying to make a card with the Christmas Lodge stamp set that could be used for a winter Birthday or a Thank You card. What do you think?
The Christmas Lodge stamp set comes in Wood Mount #123767 $41.95 or Clear Mount#123769 $31.95.

To make this card, start with 3-1/4″ x 4-1/2″ piece of Very Vanilla Card stock. Ink up the En Francais( #109521 $21.95) stamp set with Soft Suede ink and stamp once on scrap paper and then onto the Very Vanilla card stock. Stamping off once will give you a softer image.
Stamp the tree image from Christmas Lodge in VersaMark ink on the Very Vanilla card stock. Sprinkle with Clear Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat with a Heat Tool. Sponge Soft Suede & Pool Party ink over and around the tree image. Wipe excess ink away with a tissue. Mat onto Soft Suede card stock.
Tear a strip of Spice Cake Designer Fabric and tie around the tree image.
Place 4″ x 5-1/4″ Pool Party card stock in the Snow Burst Textured Impressions Embossing Folder and run through the Big Shot die cut machine. Attached to Soft Suede 5-1/2″ 8-1/2″card base.
This is a really fun technique to try at home. It was demonstrated at the Stampin’ Up Regional event by my friend Cara. I always love her ideas!!!
Happy Stamping,
