Impression Obsession | Frosty Fun

Hello! Experience the magic of winter beyond the holidays! As I mentioned HERE, I am looking to extend the use of my winter-themed supplies beyond the holidays. Today, I am sharing a CAS, winter-themed card perfect for a birthday, a thank you, or to brighten someone’s day. The card features a die cut of a boy sledding in the mountains, set against a stenciled sky that can transport anyone into a winter wonderland of joy and exhilaration.

Impression Obsession | Frosty Fun

  • Apply white embossing paste through the Lawn Fawn Snow Flurries Stencil on to an A2-sized panel of Taylored Expressions Blue Corn cardstock. Sprinkle on Spellbinders Sparkle Dust Glitter and set aside to dry. Once dry, add to card base.
  • Cut trees from Spellbinders Snowdrift cardstock with one of the dies in the Impression Obsession Tree Line set. The die cuts along the top but not at the bottom. Trim as necessary and add to card base.
  • Stamp and heat-emboss in silver a sentiment from the Rubbernecker Snowmen with Presents set. Cut a snowbank on the heat-embossed panel with a curved die (now-retired MFT Stamps Snow Drifts set). Trim at the bottom and add to card base.
  • Cut the Impression Obsession Sled from Spellbinders Brushed Silver cardstock several times and adhere together for extra depth. I used a Sizzix Release Sheet to help with the cut as the end of the sled was not easily releasing. Attach sled to card front.
  • Cut a frame with the largest die in the MFT Stamps A2 Rectangle Frames set from Spellbinders Snowdrift cardstock and add to the card.
