Today I have a new installment of my YouTube series New Stamps, Now What? And I am so excited with the card project that resulted!
With a fun new stamp set from MFT Stamps in hand, I decided to pull out some neutral gray dye inks, stamp some trees in different shades to create distance, and ink blend a pretty and soft winter sky.
That soft sky turned out so well! I feel like it doesn’t quite read as well in my video today but you’ll still get the gist of how I put it all together.
A silver embossed greeting was the perfect final touch to this cool, wintry card project.
Here is my video tutorial showing you how I created the card. Note: This is a longer format video where I film live, talking through some of the choices. I really had no idea if the card would turn out as I had envisioned it in my mind.
Thank you so much for stopping by!

Wow, this card is gorgeous! Hubby just watched the video with me and he liked it too! Ok, he just happened to be in the room when I watched your video, but he still liked it! It’s so peaceful, even makes me miss snow.

That card was absolutely beautiful. Yes, simple but still very elegant. I couldn’t believe how wonderful your heat embossing looked. Don’t think I have ever seen anyone make it so smooth.

Hi, Cathy,
I so love your style! Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge of design with us.I’ve learned a lot and have made several cards following your inspiration.
I have a question about one of your products…Coolest Yulest. [I was going to email you through your “Let’s Connect” button, but the link doesn’t seem to be working. Maybe you don’t want us to email you…:-)] Back to my question…I need to make a sentiment for inside my card using “Wishing you a merry Christmas” from the Coolest Yulest stamp set. I would like my inside sentiment to match the font of the cover of my card. Do you know what the fonts are for “Wishing you a” and “merry”?
Thanks, Cathy!
