MC July/12 - Quill Pine - Tidings

I made this quilled pine a few days ago and the embossed image (Cuttlebug "Heritage" set) last week and finally got around to making a card with the elements...

I made a side folded 5.5" x 4.25"h card. Sponged Distress Pine Needles around the edges and adhered my cream toned embossed design.

I created a hilly cardstock mask and sponged Distress Tumbled Glass along the edges to mimic snowy hills. Inked up a pine tree (Impression Obsession "Winter Trees" set) and using the mask, stamped a portion of the trees in the various locations using a mix of Versafine Olympia Green and Vintage Sepia.

Scanned a die cut of Tim's Reindeer and cut with my electronic cutter - it's under an 1"h, sponged some brown and added an eye. Added the birds in the sky with a Micron pen.

Stamped the sentiment/quote (Quietfire Design) - Tidings on the outside and the rest on the inside. Adhered my quilled tree.

The inside uses the same mask for the snowy hills, the same pine tree image and a reverse cut of the reindeer.

QF 7th Anniversary Postcard

This month is the Quietfire Design Newsletter's 7th anniversary, and to celebrate, Suzanne is giving away $100.00 worth of product. There are 3 challenges each worth about $30 or $40 bucks to the winner. This postcard could win me $40.00 worth of products and my name will go in the bucket twice since I'm also using QF products to create the postcard. Read more in this month's newsletter.

I'm using the Dreamweaver Crow stencil, Dreamweaver embossing paste, Distress Embossing powders and Walnut ink. I'm also using my calligraphic Peel Offs and since this is a postcard, I'm hoping it goes through the mail without coming off or getting ruined. We shall see...
