frosted forest decorative masks Archives

I’m seriously getting into my Christmas crafting this week! And not just because I’ll be at a Christmas market next weekend, lol. With Halloween over I can really start getting into the holiday spririt. So I’m pulling out the Frosted Forest Decorative Masks and Blending Brushes this week.

Since I’m using the evergreen tree masks for this card, my colour combination is pretty obvious; green and brown. And in this case I’m using Shaded Spruce and Crumb Cake. The Shaded Spruce is for my card base and then the Crumb Cake is for the card mat.

On top of that I added a layer of Very Vanilla cardstock. The sentiment is from the Christmas Labels stamp set stamped with Shaded Spruce ink. Then I stamped the ink splatter image from the Layering Leaves stamp set around the edges with Crumb Cake ink. On another piece of Very Vanilla cardstock I used a Blending Brush and the 3 evergreen masks to create the smaller evergreen tree in Shaded Spruce. Once that dried I added a layer of glitter using the Wink of Stella Glitterbrush.

To turn this into a tag I used one of the small dies from the Something Fancy set of dies and cut the top corners on an angle. Next I added some of the online exclusive Natural Polka Dot trim and popped up the whole thing with some Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I love using the Frosted Forest Decorative Masks and Blending Brushes together! They make it so easy to create some great images! I can’t wait to use them again. Maybe with some white ink or embossing paste. There’s also a larger evergreen tree.

There’s also some non-evergreen tree masks in this set. Check out a card I made using those ones here.

With Fall kicking off this weekend I thought it was time to do some crafting with the Frosted Forest Decorative Masks. These are an online exclusive that Stampin’ Up! released over the summer. And when I saw them I thought they’d be great to make some snow covered trees… but also some beautiful, colourful fall trees. I just love all the colours of Fall! Don’t you?!

For this first card I chose Crumb Cake as one of my colours. It works great as a tree trunk! And then my other colour is Crushed Curry. So I have Crushed Curry as my card base. And then I added some Crushed Curry ink to a piece of Basic White cardstock using a Blending Brush to have a little something going on behind my tree.

To create the tree you usually use 3 masks. The first is the tree trunk. Next up is the majority of the leaves on the trees. I used Crushed Curry for this mask. And then instead of using the third mask, I added a little Cherry Cobbler ink around the edges of the Crushed Curry leaves. I love how it turned out!

I framed the tree with some Crumb Cake ink and popped it up with some Stampin’ Dimensionals. Then I wrapped some Linen Thread around this piece and the other piece I used the Blending Brush on. On top of that I added a simple “Hello Fall” using the More than Autumn stamp set. “Hello” in Crumb Cake ink and “Fall” in Crushed Curry. Then to finish it all off I added a few of the yellow Faux Glass Dots. I’ll definitely be using these a lot in my Fall crafting.
