Samantha’s Woodland Scene Inspired by the Card Sketch

Samantha joins us today to share a beautiful woodland scene with a nod to the sketch! Our Card Sketch challenge will be open until this Sunday, November 1 at 11:59PM ET.

Samantha combined the “woods” sets: Into the Woods and Joy to the Woods to create this gorgeous design! The birch trees found in Joy to the Woods represent the columns in the card sketch. She left the sentiment in the same place as on the sketch. She white embossed it on vellum then fussy cut it out for a really elegant look!

Samantha colored the fox from Into the Woods and the little cardinal from Joy to the Woods with Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers to give her design a bright pop of color!

To create an awesome finishing touch before assembling the card, Samantha stenciled the Snowflake Trio on the Black Licorice background with white embossing paste.

Thank you for sharing with us today, Samantha! This card is just so gorgeous!
