Pink Christmas Trees

Here is a pretty Christmas card featuring pink Christmas trees and made using the Trees For Sale stamp set and Tree Lot Dies.

Colours used in this project are:

 

To recreate the pink Christmas trees card, you will need:

Blushing Bride card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Blackberry Bliss card – 4¾” by 3”
Basic White card – 4⅝” by 2⅞”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾”
Scrap Basic White card

 

The Trees for Sale stamp set is a 2-step stamping set and I began by stamping the largest solid image in 2^nd generation Blushing Bride ink onto the smaller panel of Basic White card. 2^nd generation means inking up the image, stamping onto scrap paper then stamping again onto the Basic White panel. This gives a lighter shade of your chosen colour.  I repeated this step to give 3 trees of different height.

The second, more detailed image was stamped over the top in full strength Blushing Bride ink.

 

The 2 images were stamped again, the solid image in 2^nd generation Blackberry Bliss and the detailed image in full strength Blackberry Bliss ink onto scrap Basic White card and die cut using the Tree Lot Dies. The die cut tree was then added to the panel on Dimensionals.

 

The ‘trees for sale’ sign was stamped in Basic Gray ink onto scrap Basic White card and die cut using the same dies. The sign was added to the decorated panel on a Dimensional.

 

Using Basic Gray ink I added 2 strings of lights and coloured in the bulbs with a Blackberry Bliss Stampin’ Write Marker.

I used a Blending Brush to add a little Blushing Bride ink to the background and then added some Blushing Bride stars. The stamped panel was then glued to the Blackberry Bliss layer.

 

I felt the Blushing Bride card front needed a little something so stamped the largest detailed tree across the bottom in Blushing Bride ink. I added some light strings in Blushing Bride ink at the top of the card front. A few stars completed the decoration. The stamped panel was then added to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

 

A trio of Pastel Pearls completed the card. I really like the unusual colour combo. What do you think?
