Winterly Tree Tops

I’m slowly working my way towards my Christmas crafting. And the Nest of Winter suite is a great one to ease in with. I can’t resist these cute birds! I especially love the Winterly Tree Tops dies that are part of this suite.

For this card I’m using the largest die in the bunch. So of course one of my colours is green. In this case, I’m using Garden Green. And my other colour is Crumb Cake for my card base. In between these two layers I have a piece of Basic White cardstock. On that piece I stamped some bud branches and some little flowers using Crumb Cake ink. The bud branches come from the Winterly Tree Tops stamp set. And the flowers are from the Layering Leaves stamp set.

On top of all that, I fussy cut a bird from the Nest of Winter Designer Series Paper pack. Then for my sentiment I pulled one from the Layering Leaves stamp set and stamped it in Crumb Cake ink. I die cut that with one ofthe skinnier Something Fancy dies. And both got popped up with some Stampin’ Dimensionals. To finish it off I added a few of the smallest Rhinestone Basic Jewels.

I can’t wait to use all the Winterly Tree Tops dies! Especially since I thing they will die cut some of the images in the Designer Series Paper Pack.

Colouring with Winterly Tree Tops

I just love these cute little birds and am so excited to be crafting with them! And of course I couldn’t resist colouring with Winterly Tree Tops either. For this first card I’m colouring with Stampin’ Up!s Watercolour Pencils. It’s definitely on my radar to dig out my Stampin’ Blends at some point.

This week I seem to be into Crumb Cake and Coastal Cabana as my colour combination. I’m definitely a fan of pairing blues and browns, so why not these two?! I’m using Coastal Cabana as my card base and then layering on a piece of patterned paper from the Nests of Winter Designer Series Paper pack for my card mat.

On top of that I layered some Basic White and more Coastal Cabana cardstock. But not before I added a sentiment in Crumb Cake ink on one piece. With the other piece I stamped the image of the two birds on a branch using Crumb Cake ink. Usually I use Tuxedo Black Memento ink when I’m colouring. But since I’m not using my Stampin’ Blends I thought it’d be a nice, subtle alternative. Then I coloured the branch with the Early Espresso Watercolour Pencil. The berries are Cherry Cobbler and the birds are, of course, Coastal Cabana. I coloured the beaks with Brushed Curry. To smooth out any lines from my colouring, I went over it all with a Blender Pen. Then to finish it off, I popped up the sentiment and then added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels.
