Winter Woods meets Dashing Deer and more!

Hello and welcome to my blog, glad you popped by.

This is a card l've cased from JanB's blog at janbcards.com Floating Christmas Tree dated 29th September 2019.

Jan did a video which I followed and found very clear and easy to follow.


Abbreviations: (cs) = Card Stock, (ef) = Embossing Folder, (r) = retired, (ss) = Stamp Set
All measurements are in inches, and you will need the following:

Card Stock: Garden Green 4 pieces, 5¾" x 5½" scored along the short edge at 4¼" (card base), 5¾" x 1¼" (bottom front base), 5" x " (2 pieces matting). Glimmer paper: 1" x 3" (3 stars) Whisper White 5 pieces 3" x 5½" (card insert), 5½"  x 1" (2 pieces matting), 3½" x 6" (2 pieces trees). 3" x 1" (sentiment)
Embossing Folders: Brick & Mortar
Dies: In The Woods, Merry Christmas, Starlight (r)
Stamp Sets: Dashing Deer, Winter Woods
Embellishments: Red Rhinestones

  • Adhere the card insert using liquid glue.
  • Emboss the 2 green panels with the brick & mortar (ef) and adhere to the 2 white panels using liquid glue.
  • Adhere one of these panels to the wider green panel (bottom front base), adhere the other panel at the top of the card base.
  • Using pegs align the bottom front base across the bottom the the base card.
  • With a piece of the white trees (cs) stamp the big tree from the Winter Woods (ss) in Garden Green 3 times.
  • Now die cut the trees using the In The Woods dies, then with the other piece of white trees (cs) die cut another 3 trees without stamping. (you now have 3 stamped trees and 3 plain trees).
  • Putting a little liquid glue at the top and bottom of first stamped tree, adhere to the front of the card on the left hand side, repeat this for the right hand side then open the card and adhere a plain tree at the back of each tree.
  • With the middle tree use  dimensional pads along the bottom and top of the tree to adhere in place. With the plain back for this tree use liquid glue for the top and bottom and a couple of dimensional pads in the middle to stop it sagging.
  • With the glimmer paper die cut 3 stars, I used the Starlight dies for this, then adhere using dimensional pads.
  • Stamp the sentiment  from the Dashing Deer (ss) in Garden Green and die cut using the label die from the Merry Christmas dies. Lightly edge this with Garden Green and adhere using dimensional pads.
  • Add some Red Rhinestones to the trees!!

Thank you for dropping by and see you again soon with more cards
