I stamped the pretty tree using Simon Says Stamps Embossing Ink Pad onto kraft card stock & then heat embossed it using SSS white fine detail embossing powder.

For a change I mounted my card front onto Chrome Silver Mirror card & added some Crystal Clear Gems, Simply White Crystal Drops & Twine to embellish.

I have created a card featuring a mix of  Lawn Fawn's Winter Village & Home For The Holidays stamps sets & I have used the Everyday Sentiments Banner dies to die cut a channel for my slider element. 

I have stamped & masked several of the stamps from the Winter Village stamps set to create a scene & then I stamped & masked the car & Christmas tree from the Home For the Holidays stamps set on a scrap of X Press It Copic Blending Card & coloured them all with my copics. 

Once I had coloured my background scene I used Simon's Falling Snow stencil with Dreamweaver White Embossing Paste & let that dry before assembling my card. 

To create the slider element I used two one pence pieces either side of the die cut channel along with some small circle foam tape adhesive.

 Other supplies used -

White Gel Pen, X Press It Copic Blending Card, May Arts Twine, Simply White Nuvo Crystal Drops,  Simon's Black Pigment ink, Elizabeth Craft Designs Double Sided Tape, Tonic Guillotine, Acrylic Blocks, Tonic Scissors, SSS Tacky Glue, Copic X Press It Double Sided Foam Tape.

I then fussy cut my images and used my bone folder to shape them to add a little dimension before adhering them to my card.
