A Winterly Treetops Card Trio

 I have been having so much fun with the Winterly Treetops Bundle that we used during Creativity Now.  (You might have noticed!)  I have three more cards I have made with that to share with you today!  

For the first card, I started with a Copper Clay card base, then added some of the birch pattern from the Nests of Winter Designer Series Paper.  I embossed that in the Birch 3D Embossing Folder to add a bit more texture.  I colored the stamped birds and branch with Stampin' Blends.  I also added some of the Natural Tones Linen Thread in a bow and some of the Earth Tones Shimmer Gems:






I started the next card with a Mossy Meadow card stock base.  I again added a piece of Birch embossed designer series paper, but behind that I added a piece of Smoky Slate that had been sponged in Mossy Meadow when we used it as a mask to create one of the Creativity Now make and takes.  I also added a Crumb Cake circle die cut with one of the Spotlight on Nature dies, with the stamped and die cut bird and greenery pieces, colored with Stampin' Blends, layered on top of that.  The greeting is stamped on a piece of crumb cake in Pebbled Path ink, and that flag was cut with one of the Greetings of the Seasons dies (available in July as part of the next Online Exclusive release, as are the berry embellishments next to it):
 



For the final card of this trio, I started with a Night of Navy card base.  I had another center piece in Whisper White from the pine bough frame die, and I decided to cover it in Shimmery White Embossing Paste, which gives it such a fun, snowy, sparkly look and texture!  I added a bird house from the Country Birdhouse bundle, which I cut from Crumb Cake card stock and decorated with Copper Clay stamping and some Copper Metallic Enamel Effects.  The bird and branches are stamped on smoky slate and colored with watercolor pencils.  I also added a trio of adhesive backed flat pearls:




Which of these do you like best?
