Snowflake Christmas Tree with IBS

Good Morning Stamping Friends!!

I am on the Inspired By Stamping Blog today!!

Today I am going to share a quick and easy tutorial with you.

I'm going to use some of my IBS stamps, to once again create my own Christmas tree.

This time it's going to be a snowflake tree!!

Start by collecting some supplies:

 Cardstock
Stamps 

Ink

Begin by creating your bottom layer of your tree.

 I decided to go with some pink snowflakes first!!

I just eyeballed it! So no real need for a ruler, unless you feel as though you really want one.

Then continue with the next layer.  I decided to switch to a different color as well as a different snowflake design!

 I also put these a little tighter together.
But then went loose again with the snowflakes for the next layer.

Continue on up the tree as you wish!

I finished the tree up by adding a trunk!

I thought the light-bulb end from the Festive Greetings stamp set would make the perfect trunk!!

Don't you think?!
It's so fun to find different uses for your stamps, then what they were intended for!!

Here's my finished card:

 I used the snowflake in the Christmas Wreath stamp set for the "star" at the top of the tree!!

Just think if all the fun Christmas trees you could create!!

There's another fun Inspirational Challenge for you to join in on the Inspired By Stamping Blog!

Here are this month's inspirational photos:

------------------------

For my card I decided to switch up the sketch just a little!!

Instead of the heart, I decided to create a snowflake!  A shaker one to be exact!!

I am so obsessed with shaker cards lately!!

I used some of the beautiful snowflakes from the Winter Wonderland stamp set!

The "Let It Snow" is also part of the set!

Winter Wonderland

Frozen Layout with IBS

Good Morning Stamping Friends!!

I am on the Inspired By Stamping Blog again today!!

Today we are featuring Scrapbook Layouts!!

My little girl is obsessed with the movie Frozen!
So recently I took her to get her picture take with the "cut-outs" of the two princesses and Olaf!  A local photographer was taking pictures for the day during her open house!

She was so excited when I showed her this layout I created for her album!!

The "Winter Wonderland" sentiment and snowflakes are from the Winter Wonderland set!

One of my favorite sets!

And actually one of the first sets I ever got from IBS!

I stamped a few snowflakes on some white cardstock and stamped a few right on the background piece of paper.

In a few weeks I am having a "Frozen" themed birthday party for her and figured this layout would be nice to put on display!!
