Joy to the World

 Hello Scrapping Cottage Friends

We are only a few days away from Christmas and I have another card for you today.  This one is a bit more country.  I used the Rustic Wreath and a great Christmas plaid for the design.

Design Steps:

1.  Use the Rustic Wreath die and cut out the following colors of card stock: dark brown, light brown, deep red, red, light red, pinkish red, yellow, dark green, green, light gray and dark gray.  After cutting the pieces assemble with a fine tip glue

2.  Layer the pieces onto the wreath and adhere with a fine tip glue once you are satisfied with your design

3.  Use a kraft A2 card base, deep red 4 1/8 x 5 3/8, plaid DP 4 x 5 1/4, an embossed piece of kraft cut with a dove tail 4 1/2 x 2 1/2 (I layered the kraft piece with gold card stock which is not shown)

4.  Glue down the deep red to the kraft card base, next adhere the plaid and then add the gold and kraft dove tail piece all glued flat

5.  Glue down the wreath and then using the Joy Expression die cut it out of deep red.  Stamp your sentiment on kraft and layered it on deep red.  Glue the stamped sentiment down and then glue down the word Joy.  Your card is complete

Time to Shop!

 Hello Scrapping Cottage Friends,

I am sure most of you have your Christmas card making well under way!  I have just a few more to make so I decided to use Christmas Kitty Car and the Wintery Village.  This one will probably go to my sister in New York.  She has a house full of cats and kittens!! And she has a great hubby who never says no to those strays!

Design Steps:

1.  Use the Christmas Kitty Car die and cut out the following card stock colors: pink, teal, black, silver, red, brown, yellow green and blue.  Shade the pieces with matching inks then assemble with a fine tip glue

2.  For the card base use a white A2 size, cut two frames from white using the Pierced Wide Frame Retangle set (glue them together), cut piece of teal snowy DP 4 1/2 x 3 1/2, gray card stock 4 1/2 x 2, strip of white 4 1/2 x 1 1/4 cut with the Slimline Hills die, and finally a piece of white cut with the Wintery Village die (I backed the village windows with yellow card stock)

3.  The picture above is done with scraps so I could see how it would go together.  I glued the snowbank to the frame and set it aside.  I then glued down the teal snowy DP to the card center. Then glue the gray strip for the road.  Making sure that it will fit perfectly inside the frame.  Next add the little village using the frame as a guide to make sure it is just below the top of the frame opening as shown below  

4.  Next glue down the car and then place dimension tape on the frame and pop it over the little scene.  Add your sentiment and your card is complete
