You Are Wonderful

I joined the challenge again this week over at Freshly Made Sketches! Here is the link so you can check out all the other designers.

I decided this time to go with a nature themed card. There are so many "Wonderful" people in my life so this card will definitely be used!!

I first embossed the Very Vanilla panel using the Pinewood Planks Embossing Folder, then I cut out a "window" using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. Then I cut out 2 more windows in Basic Black, and I used the leftover frame to create the shadow in the window. I think it makes the window pop and stand out more!

On another piece of Very Vanilla C/S I stamped the trees from Rooted In Nature in Garden Green, some are full strength and some are stamped off once to give depth. The frame is pop up onto the tree panel using dimensionals then mounted onto a Basic Black panel. The card base is Shaded Spruce. I stamped "You Are Wonderful" onto a Very Vanilla scrap using Early Espresso and cut around the words. I added a piece of Braided Burlap Trim and a skinny strip of Basic Black Card Stock to the front, then using glue dots attached the sentiment and a small Basic Black Bakers Twine bow. 

Below is a complete list of Stampin' Up! supplies I used to create this card. Just click on any of the supply photos and it will take you directly to my On-line store. 

Happy Stamping and Creating!
