Hi Stamping Friends!
I had intended to get my two In The Pines classes out to you yesterday, but I've been dealing with a stupid migraine headache since Thursday night, so everything has gotten delayed. Thank you to everyone who has already inquired about the Countdown To Christmas class series! I'm so happy that you're interested and I'm so very sorry to make you wait! Let's get to it!
Choose From TWO Cool In The Pines Classes! I featured the beautiful In The Pines Bundle for my LIVE Class this week and I'm offering a FREE 5-card LIVE Class Kit to go along with that video. Get all the details for how to earn that kit below! I also gave viewers a sneak peek of the first Countdown To Christmas 12-card class kit, also featuring the In The Pines Bundle. Complete details for that class kit, which INCLUDES the stamp set and other coordinating products, are below, too.

In The Pines Class Cards
Today I'm sharing one of my In The Pines card designs that I feature in both my 5-card LIVE Class Kit and my 12-Card Countdown To Christmas Class Kit. I love this pretty layout and included the more elegant version in the 5-card kit and the soft & more colorful versions in my 12-Card kit. Let's check out the LIVE Class card first with all the details for assembly!
Background Basics—I started by embossing a 5" x 3-3/4" piece of Sahara Sand cardstock with the beautiful new Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder and layered it onto a 5-1/8" x 3-7/8" Very Vanilla piece. It's all mounted onto a Sahara Sand card base.
Pretty Pine—I stamped the In The Pines large pine outline image in Crumb Cake ink onto a Very Vanilla Stitched Shapes oval die-cut. I filled in the pine with the coordinating two-step stamp inked in Mint Macaron ink. Before popping up the oval with Dimensionals, I adhered a strip of the new Embroidered Ribbon across the card front.
Sweet Sentiment—I stamped the In The Pines greeting in Crumb Cake ink onto a Mint Macaron All Dressed Up die-cut. It's popped up, too. I finished by adding a gold-flecked Wonderful Gem by the tree.
Countdown To Christmas Card #1—I created four additional versions of this layout to feature in my In The Pines Countdown To Christmas Class. I made these a little more colorful, but kept the colors very soft with subtle shades of green.
This version has a Sahara Sand embossed background with a 5" x 1-1/4" piece of Soft Sea Foam layer across the bottom. I adhered some Very Vanilla Scalloped Lace Trim around the background before mounting it onto a Just Jade card base.
Tree Trimmings—This tree is also stamped in Crumb Cake, but the fill is stamped-off Pear Pizzazz ink. The sentiment is identical to the original card. I finished up the card with Pearl Jewels.
Countdown To Christmas Card #2—Same elements, positioned just a bit differently. The only changes are a Mint Macaron card base and I used the other In The Pines sentiment.
Countdown To Christmas Card #3—I love experimenting with mixing & matching different colors and elements of different versions of my cards. My Countdown To Christmas cards allow you to play with these colors and elements, too! This version has a Just Jade card base, a Soft Sea Foam embossed background and a Sahara Sand strip across the bottom. The pine is stamped in Crumb Cake with a Mint Macaron fill.
Countdown To Christmas Card #4—The final card has a Mint Macaron base, Soft Sea Foam background and Sahara Sand strip. Make all of these soft green versions with the 12-Card Countdown To Christmas Class Kit.
