I used the Stampin’ Up! Willow Tree stamp set bundle to create a fall thank you card to share with you today.  I did a video tutorial for this card on Facebook Live yesterday and you can see it here.  You can also see the video on YouTube here.

I started by embossing a panel of Pool Party card stock with the Into The Clouds Embossing Folder.  I adhered the embossed panel to a panel of Pool Party card stock with Stampin’ Seal and then to the front of a Pool Party card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I cut a panel of Pear Pizzazz card stock with one of the Border Basics Dies and then stamped the grass and shadow (stamped off once) images from the Willow Tree photopolymer stamp set in Pear Pizzazz ink on the die cut panel.  I adhered the die cut to the card front with Stampin’ Seal.  Then I stamped the tree and bunny images from the Willow Tree stamp set in Soft Suede and Crumb Cake inks on a panel of Basic White card stock.  I inked the leaves from the Willow Tree stamp set with So Saffron ink and then added Calypso Coral ink with a Sponge Dauber over the images and stamped them on Basic White card stock.  I cut the stamped images out with the coordinating Willow Dies and adhered them to the card front with Mini Glue Dots and Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I added Adhesive Sheets to the back of a panel of Copper Foil Sheets and then cut it with the detailed “thanks” die from with the Amazing Thanks Dies.  I cut a panel of Happy Forest Friends DSP with the outline die from the Amazing Thanks Dies and then adhered the die cuts together with the Adhesive Sheets.  I adhered the layered sentiment with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to the card front and added two copper dots from the Brushed Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots to finish the card front.

I stamped the bunny and grass images from the Willow Tree stamp set in Crumb Cake and Pear Pizzazz inks on a panel of Basic White card stock to finish the inside of the card.
