Snowy Forest Scene
Hi - Jean Okimoto here again - with another quick and easy holiday card for you. This design features the new Snowy Evergreens F1956 stamp on a backdrop of Thistle Cardstock. It's stamped with Top Boss Clear Embossing Ink and embossed with detail white powder.
Add a strip of red velvet paper - and diecut Resting Birds 98527 from the velvet paper too. Accent strips of Memory Box Signature Prints in Thistle Distressed Dots and Gingham are topped with 3/8" circles of gold mirror cardstock.
View our Holiday Collection here.
I love cutting the Gingham Signature Pattern diagonally - for a bit of contrast, and a fool-the-eye technique when the eyes don't see as well as they used to. The full-sized sheets of Signature Patterns in the foreground look more like another great winter color - Pool - in this lighting, but they're Thistle, I promise! Our Collection of Signature Patterns have every color you need for the holidays - view them here.
Attach everything to a Juniper Notecard - and that's it! Add a quick greeting from our selection of holiday phrases and sentiments, sign your name and tuck it into a matching Juniper Envelope.
Thanks for visiting!

Designs like this are the reason I love Memory Box. Simple yet elegant.
