I had some left over foliage frames dies from a previous card design from the Winterly Tree Tops Bundle that I just could not let go to waste so this is the card I designed around that fun frame die!
Measurements:
BASE: Granny Apple Green
scrap for sentiment piece
Basic White layers (2) 4″ x 5 1/4″
Nests of Winter DSP scrap for bird fussy cut
Color one of the Basic White layers with Granny Apple Green ink and Garden Green ink and individual Blending brushes for each color.
Starting off the paper in a circular motion color different portions of the Basic White layer until the entire surface is covered and the colors are blended together.

Spray the colored layer with water from a Stampin’ Spritzer. allow to dry – where the water droplets hit the ink it will lift the color and lighten the area creating a very cool splatter background!
Cut the other Basic White layer with the foliage frame die from the Winterly Tree Tops die set.
Adhere the frame over the splattered blended background.

Die cut the rectangular sentiment piece from the Peaceful Season die set and stamp the “thinking of you always” sentiment from the Winterly Tree Tops stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento ink and thread a 5 inch White Diagonal Trim ribbon from the Petal Pink and White Diagonal Trim Combo Pack through the openings and cut the edges in a diagonal.
Pop up the sentiment piece on Stampin’ Dimensionals and place in the lower right-hand corner of the card base.
Fussy cut the chickadee bird from the Nests of Winter Designer Series Paper and adhere above the sentiment piece.
