Here’s a little more info on how Stephanie made the card:

I love the lamp post stamps in the ‘Winter In The Park‘ stamp set from Lawn Fawn and knew I wanted to create a card that paired them with the Simon Says Stamp ‘Large Merry Tree‘ stamp. I wanted it to look like the lamp posts were in the distance behind the tree, so I stamped them first (after I had inked up the sky background using Distress Inks) and then I layered some vellum pieces over the bottom of the card to look like snow.

Once I had all the vellum pieces adhered, I clear embossed the tree image onto Simon Says Stamp Green Leaf cardstock and then cut it out. I tucked it into the bottom piece of vellum and adhered it to the card. I decided that the card needed a little more ‘cute’ so I stamped a couple of the birds from the Lawn Fawn ‘Winter Sparrows‘ stamp set, colored them with Copic markers and then cut them out with the coordinating dies.

I added them both to the card front and added some clear wink of stella glitter to the hat and scarf. I also added sparkle to the yellow light area on the lamp posts and I put a dot of Christmas Red stickles on the center of the bows on the lamposts.

Did you know Lawn Fawn just had some new releases arrive this week?! Check ’em out!

  1. This scene is so cute. Reminds me of a city tree decorated for the Holidays. You know the annual lighting of the tree. Our old town still holds that tradition even today. Love going there and singing songs to bring in the season. So much fun too.

  2. I love the layered vellum technique, it really adds dimension without taking anything away from the stamped background.

  3. The blue sky inking is so delicate – guess I need to practice my technique more! lol Love the vellum snow and the repeated lamp posts – so many great ideas on one card. Thanks!

  4. So..so cute Stephanie! I love how you paired those Lawn Fawn birdies with Simon Says Stamp Xmas tree stamp..such a cute scene!

  5. Wonderful card. Love those little birdies. Your 3-D effect is perfect. LOVE that vellum technique for the snow.

  6. This is really a little work of art and especially with all the attention to the details. I love the way you used the vellum to create the snow and add some dimension. Perfect!
