To start, select a piece of Coastal Cabana cardstock measuring 5.5" X 8.5".  Fold this cardstock in half and score with a bone folder to create a crisp fold for your basecard with a final measurement of 4.25 X 5.5".  Then,  use the Birch Woods 3D Embossing Folder to dry emboss the front of the card.  Create a Basic White pine boughs die cut using the die from the Winterly Tree Tops Dies.    Then trim the pine bough die cut to 5" X 3.5". Glue this image focal point frame to the  Coastal Cabana basecard.

Finish with Flair: Sentiments and Embellishments

Begin by stamping the bird and holiday greens using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.  Once you've die cut them, grab your watercolor pencils and Waterpainter to add depth and character.  You'll use the following watercolor colors:  Coastal Cabana, Real Red, Early Espresso, Old Olive, and  Pumpkin Pie.  Once colored, brush watercolor pencils lightly with the Waterpainter. As you watch your creation come to life, you'll feel the magic of the season flowing through your artistry!   To tie everything together beautifully, stamp your sentiment on a Basic White die cut circle using the Spotlight on Nature Dies.  This touch not only personalizes your card but also enhances your artwork with a professional finish.  Your heartfelt wishes deserve to shine and what better way than to add the extra pop with the White Adhesive-backed Sparkle Gems?  These embellishments will give your cards a touch of elegance and sparkle.
