All About You With Mountain Air

Today’s card is All About You with Mountain Air. I love the mountains! There is just something so serene about them. You can’t go wrong with such a large mass of land surrounded by blue skies.

Instead of creating one large mountain, there are three. And, to give the card a nice masculine twist, the colors are neutral.

To make this card

• Begin with a 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ piece of Gray Granite, score and fold at 4 1/4″ to form your card base.
• Adhere a 4″ x 5 1/4″ piece of Mossy Meadow card stock to the card base using Stampin’ SEAL.
• Cut a 3 7/8″ x 5 1/8″ piece of In Good Taste designer series paper (DSP) and adhere to the card.
• Adhere a 2 1/4″ x 4 1/4″ piece of Gray Granite card stock to the upper right side of the card.        

• Crop out three Mossy Meadow trees from the Majestic Mountain dies using your Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine and adhere to the card as shown

• Stamp your sentiment on a 1/2″ x 3 7/8″ piece of Gray Granite card stock using Tuxedo Memento black ink and adhere to the lower portion of the card

• Make a mask of the mountain range. To make a mask, stamp the image on a post it note, being sure that a portion of the image is stamped where the sticky part is underneath, and cut out with your Paper Snips.
• On a piece of scrap Basic White card stock, stamp two mountain ranges using Tuxedo Memento black ink.
• Cover one mountain range with your mask and color the sky with your blending brush using Balmy Blue ink. Without removing the mask, stamp a couple of trees to the left of one of the mountains using Mossy Meadow ink and stamp the birds on another mountain using Tuxedo Memento black ink.           

• Remove the mask and color the mountains using Crumb Cake and Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends.
• Cover the second mountain with your mask and color the sky with your blending brush using Balmy Blue ink.
• Remove the mask and color the mountains using Crumb Cake and Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends.
• Underneath one mountain stamp the tree line using Mossy Meadow ink and color in with Old Olive Stampin’ Blends.    

• Crop three of the mountains out with the 3rd largest circle from the Stitched Shapes dies using your Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine.
• Attach the circles to the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• Adhere three Matte Black Dots as shown.
