Extraordinary!

Hello Scrapping Cottage Friends

Today,  I am using the Narwhal die.  This sea creature is so unique I thought it would be a perfect die to use to let a friend know how unique and extraordinary she is!! So the card I am making is one of encouragement with a little whimsy thrown in.  I am hoping it brings a smile to her face!

Design Steps:

Designer Steps:

 1.  Using the Arctic Snowy Tree die cut 2 trees using green and white card stock.  Using the Snowy Mountains die cut it out using gray and white card stock

 2.  Assemble the trees and the mountain using a fine tip glue

 3.  Cut a piece of blue card stock 4 x 5 1/8, cut a 3 x 5 1/8 piece of green card stock and then make a freehand cut rolling hill on the top.  Use of piece of wave DP 3 x 5 1/8 and cut out the top of the waves

 4.  Cut out a piece of green card stock 4 1/8 x 5 1/4 for the background.  Glue the waves to the bottom of the blue card stock leaving room to slip in the green grass and on the green grass glue it down leaving room to slip in the mountains

5.  Next slip in the 2 pine trees and add a row of the wave DP at the bottom.  Glue just the bottom of that piece so you can slip in the Narwhal

6.  Using the Arctic Whale and Narwhal die cut the Narwhal out of gray card stock and his tusk out of white.  Shade the Narwhal with gray ink and his tusk with a light tan ink.  Use a black marker for his eye.  Slip the sea creature into the waves and add your sentiment

 2.  Cut a piece of blue card stock 4 x 5 1/8.  Use some blue ink and brush onto blue card stock to add some texture for the sky then glue to the red card stock

3.  Glue the DP to the blue card stock

4.  Using the Arctic Whale and Narwhal die cut out the whale using black and white card stock and then assemble.  Pop up the whale to the card and add the hearts and sentiment.  Your card is complete!

It's Cold Outside!!!

Hello Scrapping Cottage Friends

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU!!

I was in Ohio for Christmas with my sister and brother.  And it was really cold compared to South Carolina.  So that was my inspiration for this card.  I am sending it up to my sister to thank her for hosting us during the holidays and showing us such a wonderful time.

Design Steps:

 1.  Start by cutting all of the pieces out of white card stock using the Arctic Penguins and Igloo die

 2.  Color all the pieces with your markers and assemble them

 3.  Use a white A2 card base, cut a piece of navy card stock just slightly smaller then the card front.  Cut a piece of DP 4 x 5 1/4.  And then make two banks of snow

 4.  Glue the DP to the navy card stock.  Glue down the two banks of snow layering one on top of the other then add in the igloo

 5.  Next pop up the penguins with dimension dots

6.  Using the Border Icicle die cut out the icicles using white glitter card stock.  Attach the icicles to the top of the card.  Add your sentiment and some silver glitter and your card is complete
