Evergreen Fade.....

When I first saw this stamp set, I imagined a card like this, it has taken a few attempts, but I am happy with the finished product.

The card base is Cherry Cobbler card stock  5 1/2 X 4 1/4.  I stamped the trees on Naturals White Card Stock measuring 5 1/4 X 4.  I stamped the sentiment first using the stamp set "Border Banter"  in Cherry Cobbler Classic ink.  I stamped the center tree in Always Artichoke classic ink.  I re-inked the stamp, then stamped off, before stamping on the card.  This gives the lighter image.  Repeat on the other side.  One the lightest tree, barely ink the stamp, stamp off, then stamp on the card.  I used the Northern Flurry embossing folder to add some snowflakes.  I sponged Platinum Shimmer paint on the raised snowflakes and the card edges.  I added Rhinestone Basic Jewels for the finishing touch!
