These are also timeless natural elements all year for masculine projects and more. The Two-Step Stampin' images combined with the Pine Woods Dies make this bundle great for creating quick cards any day of the year!

Pacific Point and Pine Tree card using In The Pines Stamp Set

The basecard on this card is Pacific Point Cardstock. On Whisper White cardstock stamp three solid trees in Garden Green ink. Stamp off one time for each tree. On a separate piece of whisper White Cardstock, stamp the tree details on top of the solid tree images. Then Die cut all three stamped trees. To create the image layers, stamp speckles on Whisper White Cardstock in Garden Green ink. For depth, stamp off some speckles to create a two-tone effect Die cut the hillside.

Adhere the stamped hillside to Designer Series Paper, then cut out a circle using the 3" circle from the Layering Circles Dies. Adhere the stamped trees to the Designer Series Paper. Adhere the circle to the Pacific Point card base using Stampin' Dimensionals.

The sentiment is stamped in Bermuda Bay ink on a 2-3/4" X 1-1/16" piece of whisper White Cardstock, then cut into a banner shape. I cut a 10" piece of Gold 1/6" Trim and tied a bow before adhering it to the card.
