I decided to use a sweet favorite winter stamp called Bootiful Occasions; now this stamp could be used for many occasions in the winter as well as for a Christmas card! Here are the steps in creating:
- The background card is 8.5 x 11" Cherry Cobbler, folded in the center
- Next a 4 x 5 1/4" layer of Baked Brown Sugar stamped with Whisper White using a Dotty Angles stamp
- A diagonal layer of Garden Green/White stripe from the Trim a Tree DSP Stack with piece of Whisper White edging that was cut with the Small Scallops blade for the Stampin' Trimmer Rotary Addition.
- Whisper White embossed with the Fun Frames rectangular frame and hand trimmed
- Winter boot stamped with Memento Black ink and colored with Cherry Cobbler Blendabilities then hand trimmed
- Another boot stamped then the top "fur" and one "ball" cut out and mounted with Dimensionals then treated to a layer of Dazzling Diamonds.
- Embellished with a 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon bow (it started as Real Red then I colored it with a Cherry Cobbler Blendability) and Basic Pearls in the "snow".
Ink: White Craft, Cherry Cobbler
Paper: Whisper White, Cherry Cobbler, Baked Brown Sugar; Trim The Tree Paper Stack
Accessories: Fun Frames TIEF, Pearls, Paper Snips, 1/8" Real Red Ribbon (colored with Cherry Cobbler Blendability), Glue Pen, Dazzling Diamonds, Stampin' Trimmer Rotary Addition and Scallop Blade.

Beautiful holiday card! I love all your details on this!
Beautiful card!! I love the white Dotty Angles stamp at the top to look like snow!!
Love the red boot! And it looks so pretty paired with the Dots which really do look like snow! The Pearls are my favorite detail on your beautiful card.
The dotted stamped background looks fabulous. And that cute boot...can you believe I haven't inked up this stamp set yet and I've had it for a long time?
Love the dotted background stamp with the pearls mixed in. Love the vintage feel to this card! Very nice!
Love that boot! And what a fun background! Great job with the color combo this week!
