Winter Scene feat MFT Warm and Feathered Hugs + GIVEAWAY!

Hi everyone! Today I am back with a super exciting post, as I am having a giveaway on my YouTube channel sponsored by My Favorite Things! I will tell you more about it later, but for now let’s have a look at what I created for this super special occasion!
I thought for a while what kind of project I wanted to make, and then I decided to go for my favorite: a scene card. To make things more interesting I also decided to create a coordinating tag, which is something I really love to do!

The stamp set I used today is the new Warm and Feathered Hugs set, designed by the amazing Stacey Yacula! It was one of my favorite sets from the amazing November release, and I just had to use this one on today’s project!
The owls are stamped in My Favorite Things Black Licorice Hybrid Ink and colored with Spectrum Noir Markers. For the trees I did some stamping with Distress Oxide in Pumice Stone. All the images are die cut with the coordinating dies.
I have also prepared a color chart for your reference, where I listed all the markers I used.

For the background I cut some Bristol Smooth cardstock using the scalloped rectangle die in the Blueprints 27 Die-Namics, and did some ink blending with Distress Oxides and my Ranger Blending Brushes. I used Worn Lipstick, Dusty Concord, Stormy Sky and Chipped Sapphire.
Once my inks were completely dry I heat embossed the snowflakes in the Warm and Feathered Hugs stamp set with white embossing powder. I also used a white Gelly Roll Pen to add more falling snow.

To create my hills I die cut some more Bristol Smooth cardstock with the same scalloped rectangle die from the Blueprints 27 Die-Namics as well as the Stitched Snow Drifts Die-Namics. I did some more ink blending with Distress Oxides and the Ranger Blending Brushes. For a cool, frosty look I used Tumbled Glass and Shaded Lilac.

I stamped one of the sentiments from the Warm and Feathered Hugs set on green cardstock, and I die cut a banner around it with another die from the Blueprints 27 Die-Namics – such a versatile set!

I glued my scene on an A2 base that I cut out of one of the papers from the MFT Petite Plaid 6×6 paper pad, and mounted everything on a top folding A2 card base. 
And that finished my card. 
For my tag I used the new Fold Up Tags Die-Namics. This is such a fun set to create interactive tags for your gifts, or even to create elements for your cards! 
I die cut the base out of the same patterned paper that I used on my card, and the front out of some white cardstock. 
I used the remaining owl for the front of the tag, and I decided to add the sentiment on the inside. 
I did some partial stamping with one of the sentiments in the Warm and Feathered Hugs stamp set, and used again the banner die from the Blueprints 27 Die-Namics to create a banner for my sentiment. I did some repeated die-cutting so that I would get a small enough die cut, and adhered everything together.
I added a green reinforcer around the eyelet on the tag, and threaded some light blue embroidery floss through it. 
And I find it really fun that the recipient can lift the tag front to reveal the sentiment on the inside! 

As I mentioned at the beginning of this post, I created a video to show you how I made today’s winter card and tag set. My Favorite Things was so generous not only to send me some goodies to play with, but they are also offering a 25$ gift certificate to one lucky winner! I explain all the details on how you can enter the giveaway in my video!

And that’s it for today! I really hope you guys enjoyed this post and the video! A big thank you to My Favorite Things for inviting me to guest design for them during the month of  November, and for donating a prize for today’s giveaway!
I will be back soon with another fun project, and, in the meantime, I wish you all a great day!
