Alpine Adventure Again

This time I use al one color cardstock to make the sleigh (early espresso). It's faster and easier and stil looks great. This was my first play with the corrugated embossing folder. To prevent the cardstock from cracking, I followed the manufacturers's instructions and sprayed the paper with alcohol right before running it through the Big Shot. I used the silver metallic ink that Stampin' Up! used to sell on the message, but you can easily emboss with silver powder.

Alpine Adventure

I just got this Alpine bundle and have been playing all morning:) I wanted the sleigh to be black and wood, so I cut the sleigh twice, once with wood patterned paper and  once with black glossy paper from my stash. I cut the slats from the wood sleigh and glued on top of the black sleigh. I could just as easily used black cardstock.... I have no idea why I didn't lol!

I even had fun wth the inside! On that sleigh, I used Soft Suede ink on the entire image, then used a sponge dauber to apply  black ink to the runners. The inside sentiment is from the Timeless Tidings stamp set, as is the tree on the envelope. The sleighs look nice in just one color too, I was just being extra creative this morning.
