Scrapy Land Challenge #59

Hello crafty friends,

I'm so very excited to join the amazing ladies on the Scrapy Land Design Team.   for my first team project I created these two winter theme cards:



I used the following dies for card one... the Lawn Fawn Let It Snow, the Memory Box Winter Cabin Landscape, which is not currently available, but a great alternative would be the Memory Box Quite Cabin Landscape and the Die-Versions Whispers Snowflakes.

I started by die cutting my card front panel with a stitched rectangle die.  Scrapy Land currently has these available.  Next I covered the card front with snowflakes that I die cut from glitter white card stock.  This step took the longest... backing the snowflakes with double side tape made attaching them to the card front super easy.  Next came my die cut landscaping, which I mounted on foam tape and added some diamond stickles for more sparkle.  My finishing touch was to add the "let it snow" die cut over the landscaping die cut.


I used the following dies for card two... the Die-Versions Whispers Snowflakes and the Die-Versions Whispers Skate Around.

I started this card like the one above, by die cutting my card front panel with a stitched rectangle die. I start most of my cards the same way.  Next I die cut several snowflakes from off white glitter card stock backed with double sided tape.   I took my card front and drew a circle and arranged the die cut snowflakes over the pencil line.  I left an open spot for the die cut skates.  The skates I die cut from off white and light gray glitter card stock and paper pieced for added interest.  I added some sequin and enamel dots as a finished touch.



Here are the dies i used today:



Thanks for stop bye today.  Hope you'll join the fun at the Scrapy Land Challenge.  You have until 2/12 to submit your projects.  The winner, chosen by the design team, will receive a $15 gift certificate to Scrapy Land.

MASKED HEART WREATH

Hell crafty friends,

I'm showing off this card I made for the Papertrey Ink "MAKE IT MONDAY" Challenge, who's theme is Masked Heart Wreaths.

I die cut my front panel with a stitched rectangle die and using the Little B heart dies, created a heart outline.  I masked my heart and stamped several of the sweet cupcakes from Papertrey Ink Baker's Dozen stamp set.  I colored my cupcakes with my Zig Watercolor Markers and added sparkle with gel pens.  The side view photo below shows the sparkle a little better.  This was a fun card to make and will be perfect for someone special who's bday is coming up.





Thanks for stopping by today.  If you like my card, please leave me a comment and one over on the Papertrey Ink Challenge post.   Take care :)
