Today, I’m sharing a Tree Angle Winter Card Sample. Scroll to the end of the post for a how-to video.
As paper crafters, I think we can agree we all love paper — all kinds of paper! It always catches my eye first in the catalog. I especially love Stampin’ Up!’s Balmy Blue Glimmer Paper and the Plush Poinsettia Specialty Paper. Find them in the August-December 2020 Mini Catalog.
I wanted to use them both in the same card. I die cut the trees using Stampin’ Up!’s Stitched Triangles Dies
To create a winter scene, I layered the trees on Balmy Blue Card Stock embossed with the Winter Snow Embossing Folder. The sentiment comes from the Tree Angle Stamp Set.
In addition, I created my own colored ribbon using the Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blends and the Whisper White Crinkled Seam Binding. This works as both a winter and a holiday card.

Want to use your Boho Indigo Scraps (or any scraps) with a fun embossing technique? Keep reading.
I love Stampin’ Up!’s Boho Indigo Product Medley. Find it on page 9 of Stampin’ Up!’s 2020-2021 Annual Catalog. The Night of Navy and Midnight Muse colors call to me! I’ve used the medley in a ton of card projects. Click on the links below to look at past posts, samples, and projects.
After all of that creating, I have a lot of scraps and small pieces. The technique I show today isn’t new. I resurrected it for this beautiful designer series paper and its scraps!
Using Stampin’ Up!’s 1 1/2-inch circle punch, punch a variety of different designs from both sides of the patterned paper
Arrange the circles onto a a piece of Very Vanilla card stock or Midnight Muse card stock.
Glue the circles down with multipurpose glue.It’s OK if some of them go off the edge of the base.
Let it dry.
Run the whole piece through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine with your choice of embossing folders. I used Stampin’ Up!’s Tin Tile and Dainty Diamonds.
Trim the edges if any of the circles overlap.
Layer onto a coordinating card stock and then a card base.
Add a sentiment of your choice.
You could dress up with ribbon or other embellishments.

Be sure to watch the video below to see me work through this card. I hope you love this technique. Changing the embossing folders gives your cards a different look. Think of all of the possibilities with all of Stampin’ Up!’s different designer series papers. I’m sure you have a pile of scraps that would worth for this.
