Today I have been making a Country style Christmas card using the fabulous Buffalo Check stamp set and the In the Woods framelit dies.
Making the Country Style Christmas card
I started by getting out my Stamparatus and inking up the Buffalo Check stamp with Poppy Parade ink and stamped it down onto a panel of Whisper White cardstock. I like to use the Stamparatus so that I can stamp repeatedly if I need to.

When the Poppy Parade ink was dry I added lines using a Mossy Meadow marker, I really like the added interest this gives. I then trimmed the panel down to 5½” by 3¾” using my Paper Trimmer.

Taking a panel of Mossy Meadow cardstock 5⅝” by 3⅞” I die cut the 2 Christmas tree shapes from the centre then adhered this the stamped panel to a layer of Mossy Meadow. Love that you can use the middle of a panel then cover it up and no-one will ever know!!

Using Mini Dimensionals I added the top layer of the tree to the base layer, pulling out the little leafy pieces. I covered the tree in Clear Wink of Stella, you can never have enough bling! I also added some of the gorgeous Red Rhinestones before adhering the tree to the card front. I inked up the sentiment using a Mossy Meadow Marker and stamped onto a scrap of Whisper White and trimmed to fit. I added a strip of Silver Metallic Edged Ribbon adhered on the back of the panel with Sellotape and added a bow using a Mini Glue Dot.
