Today I am sharing the card made for the Christmas Stampathon challenge. This month’s theme is ‘Texture’ and I have chosen to use the Grassy Grove stamp set and Grove Die to make my cards.
Colours used in my card are:
To recreate the grassy grove card:
Balmy Blue card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Mossy Meadow card – 4¾” by 3¼”
Basic White card – 4½” by 3”
Scrap Basic White card
Using the large back ground image I stamped across the bottom of the Balmy Blue card front. I added the trio of trees on either side using the same ink. A couple of strips of Silver Ribbon were adhered to the card front with Tear ‘n Tape.

I die cut 2 Deckled Rectangles from scrap Basic White card. I tore 2 strips from the bottom of one of the rectangles and inked them with a Blending Brush and Pool Party ink.

Using Balmy Blue ink, I inked the edges of the other deckled rectangle. The Pool Party inked pieces were then added to the bottom with the lowest one on Dimensionals. The whole piece was then glued to the Mossy Meadow Deckled Rectangle. I glued this to the Balmy Blue card front.

The double trees were stamped in Mossy Meadow ink onto scrap Basic White card. The trees were then die cut using the Grove dies and added to the panel with either liquid glue or Dimensionals.
