A few weeks ago, I was asked by several of my class ladies, if I could create something using the beautiful reindeer from the recent Hostess set called ‘Merry Patterns’ and came up with the following card. I don’t think the photo’s always show off the 3D effect of the cards, but even my husband Paul commented on how effective the techniques we used on this one, were.
The ‘Soft Sky’ ink pad was directly applied to one of the faces on the inside of the embossing folder and the trees were inked with ‘Always Artichoke’ and directly stamped on to the same side of the embossing folder. A piece of white card was placed inside the embossing folder and run through the Big Shot to create the woodland scene.
The tree trunks and branches were lightly sponged in crumb cake. Two slits in the card were cut either side of one of the tree trunks and the reindeer was placed through the holes
A very simple but very effective 3D effect landscape creation
