CAS Silver Winter Trees

Hi Friends!!

I hope you are having a great weekend!!  I had a chance to play in my stamp room and created several cards for some of my favorite online challenges.

This Clean and Simple (CAS) card was created for the Simon Says Wednesday “Thinking of You” Challenge using the Inkspirational #95 "Anything Goes with Silver" Challenge as well as the CAS-ual Fridays CFC145 “Precious  Metals” Challenge.

If you have not already visited the above sites, I hope you will take a moment to do so- wonderful inspiration from all!

Since the Simon Says Wednesday Challenge was showcasing Hero Arts Products, I decided to use a Hero Arts stamp that I had purchased months ago and have not had a chance to ink it up until this weekend.

To create this card:

De-static a piece of Whisper White cardstock using the Embossing Buddy®. 

Ink the Winter Trees stamp using Versamark™ Ink and stamp onto the Whisper White cardstock, apply Stampin’ Emboss® Silver Embossing Powder, heat set with the Heat Tool.

Trim the image and mount onto Brushed Silver cardstock, trim and mount onto Smoky Slate cardstock.

Stamp the sentiment from Peonies & Tulips (Power Poppy) using Smoky Slate Classic Ink onto a Whisper White cardstock panel, trim the panel and mount onto Smoky Slate card base.

Mount the Winter Tree image onto the card front using dimensional foam.

Add a few Rhinestones to finish off the card.
