Hello, there!
Welcome to my blog! We are rolling right into Day 1 of the new Simon Says Stamp “Joy For You” release celebration! Today I am sharing a pretty winter scene featuring cute birds perched on some frosty 3D pine branches.
We are layering these festive elements over a beautiful fluted frame tag, setting the whole scene against a crisp detailed embossed background.
It looks incredibly fancy, but following my straightforward 5-Step Formula makes it super easy. Your friends will think you spent hours detailing every branch, and you can just smile and knowing it didn’t take long at all.
Ready to see how this 5 STEP CARD came together? Scroll down to watch the video tutorial!

Tina, your card is so, so sweet. It’s absolutely ADORABLE. Not only is it a fantastic Christmas card I can envision it also being a super sweet Valentine for someone special by changing out the Do Not Open until Christmas with a big Happy Valentines Day sentiment. I greatly appreciate all you share & how you break your cards down to easy steps, your videos are pure delight (like this card.)
