Hello to 2012!

January's Easy-To-Do Card Project -- Winter Thank You

Materials
Stamps:  by smARTworks from Tree-mendous (tree), Winter Holiday (words)
Paper:  Cryogen White 4" x 5.25" top-folded card, 3.75" x 5" panel
Inks:  Brilliance - Peacock (a pearlescent rainbow pad), Graphite Black
Other:  Diamond glitter glue, appropriate adhesives, heat tool (optional)

How To
-- Using the Peacock ink pad, and 1st and 2nd gernerational images*, stamp the medium pine tree several times across the cardstock panel.  Allow to dry.                                               Note: Brilliance inks typically take 3-5 minutes to dry thoroughly. Heat setting will speed things up.
-- Using Graphite Black ink, stamp tree image and words as shown.  Allow to dry.
-- Apply diamond glitter glue over black image.  Allow to dry.
-- Mount stamped panel to card.

*For 1st generational images, ink the rubber then stamp on paper.
  For 2nd generational images, stamp image again without reinking.

Variations
Use a different rainbow pad, or even a solid color for the background trees.
