M is for Mountains

Today the letter M is for the Mountains.  Mountains are majestic.  They are beautiful.  They are my favorite place to be.

The mountains are the place I love to be.  I love them colored in snow.  I love them on a summer day. I have many fond memories of things I have done in the mountains.  I went to camp as an elementary school student for summer camp and later became a counselor for those same camps.  I have snowboard on a few of the mountains.  I have visit them with my family.  I have cropped with my scrapbook sisters in the mountains.
Mountains are the most beautiful of God's creation.  They also are a great reminder of the type of faith I should have.
Today, my card is all about mountains and the outdoor experiences I have had on them.

The card base is Pool Play cardstock with another slightly smaller piece of Pool Play Cardstock attached with foam squares.
I used Whip Cream Ink to create a swirl pattern on the top of the Pool Play piece, to represent clouds (really hard to see in the picture).
I then took the mountain stamp that says Nature Lover from the Scenic View stamp set (30% off this month) and stamped it in a row on Whip Cream Cardstock in four different ink rows; Dark Roast, Cocoa Powder, Hazelnut Blend and Oatmeal Cookie.  I then detail cut these rows out, cutting off the Nature Lover sentiment.
I took a piece of Limeade Splash cardstock and did direct to paper with Limeade Splash ink to give the piece texture.  I then layered the mountains on the top of the Limeade Splash Cardstock.   I then die cut Kiwi Slice Cardstock with the Border Basics scallop die.  I added this to where the mountains stopped on the Limeade Splash Cardstock.  Next, I wrapped Lemon Grass Thread around the card several times and tied a Wooden Accent on and then tied a bow.
I finished the card, by adding the sentiment from the Scenic View set to the lower right corner using Black Licorice ink.  Enjoy!
