Christmas Deer

 Hello Friends

I am celebrating Christmas in July by making my very first card for the holidays!  I always start early and end late!!

I am using the Folk Art Deer.  This die is from our Folk Art release!  There are 19 wonderfully detailed dies in this collection.  Each die can be used together or separately.  They are perfect for multiple occasions even Christmas!

Design Steps:

1.  Use an A2 kraft card base, 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 red dotted DP, 4 x 5 1/4 tan DP and 1 1/2 x 5 3/8 strip of DP.  Ink the edges of all the pieces with TH Vintage Photo

2.  To add a little texture tape a stencil to the tan DP and use some Glitter Snow paste in small quantities all over the card front.  Let it dry to continue

3.  Using the Folk Art Deer cut it out of kraft card stock and shade with ink.  Using the Star Window Slimline Die cut out two red dotted DP stars and 2 gold stars.  Using the Victorian Border die cut out two borders in gold

4.  Glue the red dotted DP to the card front and then add the tan DP. Next glue the borders to the top and bottom of the DP strip then glue to card front as shown.  Glue the stars together with the gold star on the bottom but slightly showing on the right side of the star

5.  To add another layer of texture I dyed a piece of cheese cloth with a walnut spray ink.  I let it dry and then layed it on top of my middle strip as shown above.  To anchor the cheese cloth I added extra glue to the stars and pushed down firmly to make sure the glue held

6.  Add the deer and your sentiment.  For the sentiment I embossed in gold and layered it on a piece of gold card stock

7.  I added just a little greenery by cutting green leaves and red berries using the Woodland Birdhouse.  Add the greenery to the card along with the red berries and your card is complete

Just Because

Hello Friends

Today, I am making a few Just Because cards.  I love sending cards to friends and family for no reason at all!  Many times people tell me when they received the surprise in the mail it was perfect timing.  Because their day wasn't going very well! So with that in mind I made this card with the folksy art look and bright colors to brighten someone's day!

I am using the Folk Art Bird and the Folk Art Flowers Mixed.  These dies are from our Folk Art release!  There are 19 wonderfully detailed dies in this collection.  Each die can be used together or separately.  They are perfect for multiple occasions.  

Design Steps:

1.  Using the Folk Art Bird and the Folk Art Flowers Mixed cut out the following colors of card stock: red, orange, green, yellow and brown

2.  Use a fine tip, clear drying glue to assemble the pieces

3.  Cut a 5 inch kraft circle card base and then run it through the embossing folder of your choice

4.  Begin to arrange your piece onto the circle.  You will notice that I changed up my design a little on the final card

5.  Once you have decided on your design glue the pieces in place add your sentiment.  I used vellum and embossed in gold for my sentiment. Your card is complete
