The world is hushed as snow falls silently on a secluded cabin.

Let’s get Started:
Card Base: 5.5 x 8.5, scored and folded at 4.25
Card Face: 5 3/8 x 4 1/8
Card Face:
- I placed the card face into my stamp positioner and stamped the cabin, fence , fox and trees using Versafine Onyx.
- I moved the card face to the grip mat, positioned the stencil and added the design using white pigment ink. I used a heavy hand with this, to be sure that it would stand out well against the dark background.
Other:
- I looked through my sentiment binder, and selected the one that worked for this card.
Assembly
- I glued the card face to the card base, centering on all sides.
- I added the sentiment as shown.
Final Thoughts:
This was such a quick and easy card to create, and a very satisfying result.
I love the white ink on that dark teal cardstock – a very pretty combination. If I wanted even more contrast I could have used clear embossing powder on top of the white ink, but I felt that it was distinct enough without that step.
