Quick and Easy Merry Woodland Moose Card

This card was easy to make, cute to look at, but really hard to photograph so that you can see the details. The basis of it is a Whisper White panel dry embossed with the Woodlands Embossing Folder and embellished with the ornament from the *Merry Moose stamp set.

Let's try a closer look with lower light to enhance the shadows:

• You can now see the birch trees embossed in the white cardstock more clearly which gives a bit of a snowy effect.
• The ornament from the *Merry Moose stamp set is just the right size to stamp in some of the flat areas hanging from some of the branches. I did 3 of them in Real Red ink, as the the Rule of Threes states that our eyes find 3 of something more attractive to look at.
• The sentiment is also from *Merry Moose and it just fits inside the Classic Label Punch. I mounted it on the card front using Mini Stampin' Dimensionals.
• I originally stamped the raccoon from the *Merry Moose set, with a jaunty red knit cap on his head and coloured him in with Stampin' Blends, but he just spoiled the white and red look of the card, so I didn't adhere him to it.

I also took the new *Shimmery Crystal Effects and *Ice Stampin' Glitter out for a test drive. Here's a closer look:

• The base is Seaside Spray and there is a panel of Balmy Blue on top of it. I tried embossing this layer, but the whole thing just ended up looking too busy.
• I die cut the large frame from a piece of the *Feels Like Frost Specialty DSP and heat embossed the sentiment, from *Frosted Foliage, using White Stampin' Emboss Powder.
• Extra pieces to embellish the frames were die cut from vellum and Silver Foil Sheets, using the *Frosted Frames dies. These were added to the large frame by putting adhesive on the back of it in the strategic places and then just adhering the extra pieces where they looked the best. 
• I die cut several snowflakes, from Silver Foil Sheets, Balmy Blue and Seaside Spray cardstock, then, on the cardstock ones, "painted" them with the *Shimmery Chrystal Effects and added the *Ice Stampin' Glitter.  It definitely resulted in a glittery, icy look!
• A little bow from the *Seaside Spray 1/4" Metallic Ribbon finishes off the card.

It's All in the Feels Like Frost Specialty Designer Series Paper

From the moment I first cast my eyes on the new Holiday Catalogue, I only ever had one favourite suite and so it remains today, even as I've experienced many of them. It's the *Feels Like Frost Suite with it's *Feels Like Frost 6 x 6 Specialty Designer Series Paper and the *Frosted Frames Dies. The *Frosted Foliage stamp set is nice, with a couple of good sentiments but it's the dies and the papers that make this suite spectacular!!

*New Products from the 2019 Holiday Catalogue, not available for sale until Sept. 4, 2019.

The paper has one side with gorgeous, photorealistic  shots of frosted foliage with sunset and evening skies behind them and the other side has metallic silver designs. Between the two, you can make some amazing card designs.

• The *Feels Like Frost Specialty DSP you see here is both sides of the page of this pattern. I simply cut the 6 x 6 sheet in half trimmed the length to 5 1/4", then overlapped the two pieces to get them to a width of 4".  A word of wisdom: I used liquid glue on the back of the silver foil side and you could really see the ridges, even of the very small beads of glue I used, so it's better to use double sided tape runners such as Snail on this paper. It doesn't show as much on the photo side, however.
• I embossed the sentiment, which comes from the Merry Christmas to All stamp set from the Annual Catalogue in Silver on vellum, die cut it using one of the Stitched Rectangle Dies, and glued that panel down to the card front. I used Vellum Glue Tape by Plus which isn't carried by Stampin' Up!, but you can also use some Snail under the embossed letters where it doesn't show as much.
• The bow is a double piece of White Baker's Twine combined with a double piece of Silver Metallic thread, then a small bow tied in it. This is added to the vellum sentiment panel using a glue dot and a Frosted Epoxy Droplet is added. A couple of Clear Epoxy Droplets from the same package were added to the photo paper.
