Wonderful Winter Night Cards
The third project from my November Holiday Card Stamp-a-Stack Class is so SO pretty! It features the gorgeous pines from the Wonderland stamp set. This set has definitely been a sleeper from the Holiday Catalog. I didn't think that I needed it, and I don't even like all of the images in it, but those TREES! Simply splendid!
CASEd from Teri Pocock at Teri's Craft Spot.
Background Basics—The background is simply a 4-1/4" x 2" piece of Night of Navy, adhered to a Blackberry Bliss card base.
Moonlight Mask—To create the moon, I punched out a 1" Circle from a Post-It note, then used it as a mask on a 3" x 4-1/4" piece of Whisper White. Then, I sponged on Soft Sky ink over the whole top portion of the sky. I added some Night of Navy sponging all around the top edges, then finished up the bottom with Blackberry Bliss sponging.
TIP: Sponge in small, gentle circles. Start off the card stock, then move your circles onto the card stock to avoid big ink blobs.
Sparkly Trees—I stamped the trio of pines over the sponged sky with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, staggering the heights. I matted it onto a 3-1/8" x 4-3/8" piece of Night of Navy card stock, and again on a 3-1/4" x 4-1/2" piece of Smoky Slate. I added some snowy sparkle to the trees with the help of the 2-Way Glue Pen and some Dazzling Diamonds glitter. The whole layer is popped up with Dimensionals.
Sweet Sentiment—I stamped the Wonderland greeting in Memento Black ink onto a 4" x 3/4" strip of Smoky Slate and trimmed the ends into fish-tails. It's popped up, too.

You’re such a tease for me because I’d love to take your classes. Your cards are always so beautiful. I live in Canada, ugh!
Sorry, Beth! But, I’m so glad that you like the cards! You should gather up your friends and start your own classes.
