We ran one of the Basic White panels through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine with the Fern 3D Embossing Folder. A length of Pool Party Ribbon was wrapped around the layer before it was glued to the Old Olive card front.
We added Pool Party ink to the die cut Circle using a Blending Brush. Two trees were then stamped onto the circle, the solid background in Garden Green and the detailed image in Evening Evergreen. The circle was then adhered to the card front.
The large and small trees were die cut from scrap Pear Pizzazz, Old Olive, Garden Green & Evening Evergreen card. They were glued together and added to the card front n Dimensionals.
The sentiment was stamped onto a strip of Basic White card in Evening Evergreen ink. We trimmed it down and flagged the ends with scissors. It was then added to the card front.

We glued the Gold and Silver dsp to the Pool Party panel and added the strip of Sweetest Christmas dsp across the centre.
Using Blending Brushes, we added Pool Party ink and Pear Pizzazz ink to the die cut circle.
The large tree was the stamped in Garden Green (solid background) and Evening Evergreen for the more detailed image. The smaller trees were stamped in Pear Pizzazz and either Mossy Meadow or Evening Evergreen. The stamped circle was then glued to the Garden Green scalloped circle and mounted onto the card front on Dimensionals.
We stamped the sign in Crumb Cake ink and trimmed it out with scissors before adding it to the card front. We die cut 3 stars from scrap So Saffron card and added them to the trees. A trio of Basic Rhinestones completed the card.

I had prepared a negative circle mask ahead of class which we adhered to the smaller panel of Basic White. We then used a Blending Brush to add Pool Party ink to the negative space, peeled the masking paper off and voila…… a soft, blue circle.
The large tree was stamped in the centre of the circle in Garden Green and Evening Evergreen ink and a smaller tree added on each side in Pear Pizzazz and Mossy Meadow.
The greeting was stamped below in Evening Evergreen ink and the panel glued to the Garden Green layer.
The whole piece was then added to the Pool Party card base on Dimensionals and a trio of Iridescent Pearls completed the card.
