Santa in His Cadillac!

  Hello Scrapping Cottage Friends

We have Part 2 of the Christmas release available today! This amazing release has 36 designs!  This time we have Gingerbread Cookies, Gnomes, Santa in a Cadillac and much much more!!  Check it out HERE.  The best part about this new release is that it is on sale now!!

The die I used to create my card today is Cadillac Santa!  I decided to make it a small tent fold card so I could stand it up!

Design Steps:

1.  Use your Cadillac Santa die and cut the following colors of card stock: red, green, silver, white, brown, black, tan and vellum (for the window, headlight and taillight in case you can't see it!).  Using the HO HO Friends die cut out Ho Ho twice once in white glitter card stock and the other in plain white card stock.  Glue the two together with the glitter letters on top

2.  Assemble all the pieces using a fine tip glue

3.  For the base of the card cut a white piece of card stock 8 1/2 x 4 1/2.  Fold the white base in half and then fold the front flap in half toward the inside of the card.  For the inside cut a piece of red card stock 4 1/8 x 4 3/8, a piece of white 4 1/4 x 2, a strip of green 1 1/8 x 4 1/2, and a strip of DP 1 x 4 3/8.  For the front of the card 2 pieces of red 4 3/8 x 2, 2 pieces of DP 4 1/4 x 1 7/8 and a piece of glitter white card stock 1 x 4 1/4 cut with the Hills Slimline die for the snow 

4.  Working on the inside of the card glue the large piece of red card stock down first add the white strip of card stock to the top of the red piece. Layer the green with the DP and pop it up to the bottom portion of the card

5.  Close the card to work on the front of the card.  Glue the one of the red strips to the top of the fold.  Glue the other red strip to the bottom of the fold BUT do not glue to close to the top because you will have to slip in the HO HO. Then glue the DP to the red card stock.  Glue the glitter snow bank to the bottom of the front panel as shown

6.  Glue your HO HO together and then place a little line of glue on the bottom of the letters and tuck them under the lower red panel right at the fold.  Glue down your santa and your card is complete

The die I used to create my card today is Rustic Winter Window.  

Design Steps:

2.  Using the Rustic Winter Window die cut all the pieces out in the following card stock colors:  White, black, red, 3 shades of green, yellow, yellow DP and white glitter card stock

3.  Cut a piece of white card stock 4 x 5 1/4 and emboss with wide strips.  Glue the window with the yellow DP glued to the back of the window to the white embossed panel. (as shown above). Begin to add the greenery first to the left hand side of the window.  Also glue the glitter card stock snow to the top of the window 

4.  Finish adding the cardinal and the poinsettia to the window and then add the snowbank on the bottom of the card.  I cut some white glitter card stock with the Slimline Hills die to create the snowbank

5.  For the card base use an A2 white base and a piece of gold card stock cut 4 1/8 x 5 3/8.  Glue the gold to the white card bass and then add the window panel

6.  Place dimension dots or squares to the back of the lanterns and place them next to the sides of the window ( as shown below)

7.  Stamp your sentiment and layer onto gold card stock and your card is complete

Halloween Treat Box

 Hello Scrapping Cottage Friends

We have a brand new release just in time for all of those amazing Halloween cards everyone makes!! The collection has 22 fabulous dies that are going to make those scrapbook layouts and cards look SPOOKTACULAR!!!  The dies are currently on sale so make sure you get them while they last at this special introductory offer!!

Today, I am using the Witchy Ghost.  It sits perfectly on top of the tiny treat box.  I also used the Web and a spider from the Jack-O-Lanter Witch.  I think this cute little box will be perfect for a teacher's gift or some special Trick or Treaters!

Design Steps:

1.  Cut a piece of orange card stock 9 1/4 x 4 1/2 and then score

2.  Horizontal 5/8, 4 3/8,  5,  8 3/4

3.  Vertically 5/8, 3 3/8, 4

4.  Use a bone folder and burnish the score lines then open flat with the two score lines horizontally on the top of your work area

5.  Cut the tabs on the bottom of the orange card stock as shown above

6. Then flip the orange card stock so that the 2 horizontal score lines are now at the bottom of your work area as shown above  

7.  Cut the bottom of the orange card stock to match the picture above 

8. Flip the box over so the double scored longest flap is now at the top of the work space.  The longest flap is the part that will close the box so round those corners

9.  Glue two pieces of DP each measuring 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 to the box as shown above

10.  Cut a notch on the side that does not have the flap that closes the box.  I used the second to the smallest from the Circle dies.  As shown above

11.  On the opposite side of the notch cut you will cut the window of the candy box with the 3rd from the smallest Pierced Retangle dies.  As shown above

12.  Flip the orange piece over and tape the acetate to the back of the window

13.  Assemble the box using glue or a strong double sided tape making sure you do not glue the flap that opens and closes the box

14.  Place the candy in the box.  You can use any kind of candy you wish

15.  Use the Witchy Ghost die, the Web die and the Jack-O-Lantern Witch die (for the spider) to cut out the pieces in the following colors of card stock: white, yellow, orange, purple,  green, gray and black.  Assemble the pieces with a fine tip quick drying glue.  Glue the pieces to the front of the box as shown below then add the sentiment and your little treat box is finished
