Winter Scene in a Ring

Here’s another card showing you one of the new stamp sets from Colourific.

Here’s what you will need:
A5 Rings stamp set
Winter Wonderland Stamp Set
Distress Inks - any blue - I used Salty Ocean
Watercolour paints or pencils
Clear Embossing Powder
Versafine Onyx Black
Versafine Clare blue
White and blue Gel Pens
Iridescent Glitter Glue
3D Foam pads
6x6” card base
Stamping card
Die cutter - circles or punch

Here’s how I made it;

1. Cut a piece of 5x5” stamping card.  Stamp the Distress ink onto a blending mat and spritz with water, swish the card through the ink and dry.
2. On a separate piece of card, stamp the stars ring in black Versafine.  Cut out a circle around this stamp - I used a die cutter or thus or you could use a punch. 
3. Stamp two small trees, one medium tree and seasons greetings in the circle and colour with watercolour paints or pencils. Add a blue wash for the sky and draw in some grass under the trees.
4. Stamp some of the small dots for snow and glitter the top of the dots.
5. Stamp and emboss 4 snowflakes onto a separate piece of card and cut out.
6. With the white gel pen, colour in some snow on the trees and with the blue gel pen colour in the stars of the ring.
7. Mat the blue inked background onto the card base and adhere the circle to the middle of the card using 3D Foam pads.
8. Add the snowflakes to the corners of the blue background using 3D Foam Pads.

Hope you enjoy making this card - the rings are very versatile and can be used as a frame for lots of small stamps and dies.
