more color mondays – pecan pie, mossy meadow and early espresso

Today’s More Color Mondays color challenge card is a gorgeous masculine Christmas card made from the Frosted Pinecones bundle and these dies are just stunning! They do all the work on this card!

Pecan Pie, Mossy Meadow and Early Espresso pair well together for an elegant card that anyone would love to receive! This card follows my Card Sketch #133 also!

Measurements:
BASE: Mossy Meadow CS: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″, scrap for the sentiment die
and pine needle foliage dies
Basic White CS” (2) 4″ x 5 1/4″
Pecan Pie CS: scraps for dies
Early Espresso CS: scraps for dies

Run one of the Basic White CS layers through the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine with the Textured Tree Ring 3D embossing folder in between the BASE #1 plate and the Embossing Plate #4.

Adhere to the Mossy Meadow Cardstock base.

Adhere the second Basic White CS layer to the inside of the card.

Die cut the large and small pinecone mattes out of the Pecan Pie CS scraps.

Die cut the detailed pinecone dies out of the Early Espresso CS.

Die cut the pine needles and the sentiment piece out of the Mossy Meadow CS scraps.

Adhere the Early Espresso detailed Pinecone dies atop the Pecan Pie mattes and then stamp the sentiment onto the Mossy Meadow label in Mossy Meadow ink.

Pop up the sentiment piece and the larger pinecone on Stampin’ Dimensionals and then adhere the smaller pinecone in the center leaving the edges without glue so you can tuck the pine needle dies under all of the pinecones dies and sentiment.

Tuck the pine needle dies under both of the pinecones and sentiment and adhere them down with a little bit of multi-purpose glue.

Adhere the green Glossy Garden Dots to bring some coordinating shimmer to this awesome seasonal card!

I love this seasonal card – it is just perfect for so many things – my guy friends, my friends that celebrate the upcoming seasons a little differently than me and the ones that do celebrate Christmas as well! I love this card and the way it turned out! Hope you like it too and that it inspires you because now it’s your turn to create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!

Need a NEW September to December catalog – let me know or pick one up at the next class!

Happy Stampin’
