Hope you all are enjoying all the beautiful project!!  I just loved the Halloween and Christmas stamps this month, really gets you in the mood for the upcoming holidays!!

I choose to use the Sleigh Ride set for my Reveal Project!

The design for my card is a Stand Up Card, you can find the template Here for the card base.  Once the base was cut, and the panels were cut I stamped the trees from the stamp set with versamark and embossed with Tinsel EP.   Small strips of white cardstock was torn to create the snow banks.  Using dimensional glue along the edges of the snow banks sparkle was added using Diamond Dust glitter.  A thin line of glitter was added around the edges of the white panel using a glue pen and Sassy Silver glitter.  The snowflake was cut using a svg file from Silhouette and glittered using brushable glue and Sparkling Snow glitter.  A belly band was made and a strip of 1/4" Tear-ific Tape was added to the middle.  I removed the backing and applied Sassy Silver glitter.  The Winter Wonderland is from the digi version of the Sleigh Ride set.  It was printed with my laser printer and foiled using Anne Griffin's  Minc and silver foil.  A small snowflake from  Snow One Like You stamp set was added.

Now the fun to create the inside began!

  I used stamps from the Reindeer Stamp Set and Tree Scene set.  First I cut all the panels, and began stamping the trees on the side panels.  They were colored with copic markers.  Using a glue pen on the snow area of the trees glitter was added using Sparkling Snow glitter.

Small snow banks were torn and inked with blue ink along the edges.  Sparkling Snow glitter was added along the top edges of the banks using dimensional glue.

The small deer was stamped on the left side of the card and colored with copic markers.

Now to create the main panel, I made a large snow bank using Elizabeth Craft's Outdoor Edges dies.  The top edge was ink and glitter.  The sleigh was then stamped with versamark and embossed using Black Detail EP.  The sentiment was stamped with Memento Bahama Blue ink.  A second snow bank was created and placed behind.  Next required a small bit of masking.  The deer were stamped first and a second one stamped and cut out.  Placing the cut out image on top of the 1st image the trees were stamped.  Remove the mask image and I had a beautiful winter scene.  The images were all colored using copic markers.  Small amount of sparkle was added to the deer using a glue pen and Sparkling Snow glitter.  To add the snow to the trees I used White Liquid Applique that was lightly dusted with Sparkling Snow glitter.  The trees were heat set the next morning to create the puffy look of snow. The sleigh panel was then adhere to the main panel and small snowflakes were added.  I was so pleased with how pretty this turned out.  Small thin line of glitter was added to the inside panel using a glue pen and Sassy Silver glitter.

A look from the side of all the beautiful sparkle!!
