Hello Stampers!  This week's Featured Stamper on Splitcoaststampers is Imke and this is the card that I selected from her gallery.  To make my card I started with the focal image.  I die cut the birch circle in white, and then die cut a circle border.  Then I die cut a kraft circle to adhere to the back of the birch circle.  Next I die cut a cherry cobbler mat.  To complete the focal image I die cut some cardinals and adhered them to the birch trees.  Then I stamped and die cut the sentiment.  I layered the sentiment with two additional layers of white to add some dimension.  Next I chose a snowflake embossing folder and embossed the card base.  I popped up the focal image and adhered it with dimensionals.  For the inside I cut a white panel and embossed it, and stamped the sentiment with Cherry Cobbler ink.

Thanks so much for stopping by!!
