3D Evergreen Forest embossing folder

The photo doesn’t do this card justice. The muted colours combined with some sparkle make a gorgeous card that is simple to recreate. Like the Seaside Spray card from this post – the 3D Evergreen Forest embossing folder by Stampin’ Up! creates a gorgeous card. The pine forest trees makes such a pretty raised pattern in the paper.

Do you ever CASE cards? CASE stands for copy and share everything – this card was cased and tweaked to be a bit different than the original. The problem I now have is I can no longer find the original creator to give them credit. Regardless, I added the Pool Party Sheer ribbon as the added sparkle and colour adds to the card’s beauty.

Make it yourself:

A couple tips to create this card yourself.

1. Less is more. Lightly brush the top of the trees with Pool Party ink, Mint Macaron ink and just a hint of Pretty Peacock. I used the sponge daubers to be able to add just light touches of colour
2. Fake the pretty bow. Attach ribbon around the back of the Dainty Diamonds embossed white background. Tie a pretty bow with a separate piece of ribbon and then attach it with a glue dot. It is much easier to add the bow afterwards then to try to tie the ribbon around.
3. Add sparkle to the trees by lightly brushing on wink of stella. This little detail is hard to see in the picture but adds a pretty touch that you shouldn’t skip.

Enjoy creating! Here are the main supplies I used to create this card. If you live in Canada you can order by clicking on any of the supplies below. I am happy to answer your questions – email me at amy@cardsbyacook.com
