The latest release by Penny Black called Christmas 2024 - Round One includes a stamp set that has the most elegant tree stamps. I think these birch trees in this set called Take Wing are so beautiful and the little birds just add to the charm.
The first card is super CAS. I stamped the birches on my panel and masked them with masking paper. I then used a stencil from the stencil set Background Basics and ink blended Distress Oxide inks to the panel. Before removing the stencil and the masking paper, I splattered the panel with some water and then with some white gouache paint to create the snowfall. I then removed the stencil and the masking paper, coloured the little bird with my Karin markers and stamped the sentiment from the sentiment set Snowflake Season. Lastly, I embellished the card with a single snowflake that I made using the new Stick & Shine sheet Snowflakes, some foil and the matching die, Snowflakes Cut Out. I finished the snowflake by adding a bling to its centre.

For the second card, I used the other birch stamp from the same stamp set, Take Wing. I stamped it onto a panel die cut with the new frame die called Classy Frames, masked it with masking paper and ink blended the background with some Distress Oxide inks. I created the snow the same way as in the first card, by splattering the panel with some water and then with some white gouache paint. I also coloured the birds with my Karin markers. The sentiment I used is from the sentiment set Touched by Peace. I added the white frame on the panel, it's die cut with the same Classy Frames die. For the background, I used a panel of light blue cardstock that I first embossed with the new embossing folder, Melody, and then inked with some Distress Oxide inks. I adhered the panel onto a slightly larger panel of white cardstock and adhered the die cut panel on top of it with some foam adhesives. I decided to embellish the card with some die cut snowflakes, the big one is die cut with Polar Pair die and the smaller ones are die cut with Dancing Snowflakes die. I embellished the snowflakes with sequins and half pearls.
