I have used the pretty Wisteria Wishes stamp set and a bit of masking to make a balmy Christmas card.

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the balmy Christmas card, you will need:

Balmy Blue card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5” by 3⅜” – rounded upper left corner
Shaded Spruce card – 4⅝” by 3⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 4½” by 3” – rounded upper left corner

Scrap Balmy Blue & Basic White card

 

I took a piece of copy paper and tore a wavy line from side to side. I then moved the copy paper down the page adding Balmy Blue ink along the edge with a Blending Brush to create the illusion of snowbanks.

Using the same punch and scrap Basic White card I punched out 2 antlers and added then to the back of the deer’s head with a Dimensional. The deer was mounted onto the card front with Dimensionals.
