Frosted Forest Autumnal Swap Cards – Share It Sunday Blog Hop

Posted on July 28, 2024July 24, 2024 by Mo Rootes

Hello and welcome to the Share It Sunday Blog Hop where we are sharing something we have been working on recently. I am sharing the frosted forest Autumnal swaps I designed for our recent training session in Lincoln.

Colours in these cards are:

To recreate the frosted forest Autumnal swaps, you will need:

Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Cherry Cobbler card – 5⅞” by 2”
Pecan Pie card – 5⅞” by ⅛”
Basic White card – 5” by 3½”

I embossed the panel of Cherry Cobbler card using one of the folders from the Basics 3D Embossing Folders selection. This was then glued to the Thick Basic White card front.

The thin strip of Pecan Pie card was then glued in place butted up against the embossed panel.

Using the Countryside Corner Dies I die cut a label from the 5” by 3 ½” piece of Basic White card. The large tree image was inked up with Copper Clay ink and stamped it onto the die cut label.

I placed the 1^st mask in position and added Pecan Pie ink using a Sponge Dauber. With the 2^nd mask in position, I randomly added Old Olive, Cajun Craze and Cherry Cobbler ink to the image.

With the 3^rd mask, I started by adding Copper Enamel Effects using a Palette Knife. I absolutely loved the effect but doing more than 2 or 3 at a time became a pain as the enamel effects started to dry on the mask and became more difficult to clean. So, after a bit of thought I switched plans and started adding Versamark ink with a sponge dauber. I removed the mask, covered the image with Copper Embossing Powder and heat set it.

The tree was grounded using an image from the Garden Meadow stamp set and Old Olive ink.

The sentiment was stamped in Copper Clay ink onto the card front and the die cut label was added to the card front on Dimensionals.

I placed Mask 1 over the stamped tree and added Pecan Pie ink to the trunk and branches of the tree. Mask 2 placed next and I lightly added Old Olive ink, with a Blending Brush, to parts of the tree canopy. Lastly, using Blending Brushes, I added Cajun Craze used to some of the remaining uncoloured areas and Cherry Cobbler to the remainder.

The final Mask, number 3 was then placed in position. I squeezed some of the Gold Metallic Enamel Effects onto the Mask and used a Spatula to scrap the gold over the mask and into the negative space. The mask was then removed and the panel allowed to dry. The mask and spatula were then washed with warm water to remove the Enamel Effects. When it was dry I die cut the tree using the Frosted Forest Dies.

The ‘ground’ image from the Garden Meadow stamp set was stamped onto the die cut label in Old Olive ink. The die cut tree was then glued in position and the label was then mounted onto the card front on Dimensionals.

The sentiment was stamped in Old Olive ink and a gold bird added to complete the card.
