Hi! Janja here with you.
For this week's post, I used two penguins from the Christmas release Part 1.


- CottageCutz dies: Penguin's Christmas Tree, Birch Trees & Deer
- blank card: 5.3 x 5.3" (13,5 x 13,5 cm), folded
- patterned paper: 5 x 5" (12,7 x 12,7 cm)
- white cardstock: 4.5 x 4.5" (11,5 x 11,5 cm)
- colored cardstock
- colored ink pads
- embossing folder -
- glue, double-side adhesive tape, self adhesive foam pads

Cut out penguins and a tree from colored cardstock. Use color pads for more depth.


Cut out birch trees of white cardstock. Cut off a white hill with scissors. Color the edges with a gray ink pad.


Trim patterned paper and white cardstock. Create a snowy background with an embossing folder.


Now gradually paste all the elements on a snowy background.


Add some glitter to the star.


Paste the white cardstock to the patterned paper. 


Cover the front of the card and leave a narrow edge. 
We're done.


Have a nice day.

Mountain lodge

Hi, Janja here!

If you are an avid hiker, then the season to visit hills and mountains is here.
So today one card for lovers of hiking and mountaineering.


Supplies:
- CottageCutz dies: Mountain Lodge, Rustic Sign & Trees, Moose & Trees, Birch Trees & Deer
- white card base: 6 x 6" (15,2 x 15,2 cm), folded
- patterned paper: 5.5 x 5.5" (14 x 14 cm)
- white and colored cardstock
- Distress ink pads: Peeled Paint, Aged Mahogany, Vintage Photo, Hickory Smoke
- Distress oxide pads: Peeled Paint, Vintage Photo

Trim white cardstock for the card base and patterned paper for background. With scissors cut out green paper below.


From colored cardstock cut out all pieces with dies that we need for the mountain lodge. Also cut out the largest element of lodge from fun foam. Distress all pieces with Distress ink pads and assemble them into a whole.



Also prepare some spruces, birch trees and deer cutouts.




When we have everything cut out, start by assembling the card.
First paste green paper on blue background. Directly on the background fasten spruces and birch trees.
Fix the mountain lodge and remaining two spruces with adhesive foam tape.
Finally, we add a deer.




I hope you've enjoyed this project. 
Thank you for coming over and have a lovely day.

SPARKLING SNOW AND CHRISTMAS CARD


HELLO FRIENDS !!

It's Anita here !!
Winter is all in its beauty with sparkling snow fields and woodlands covered with snow and those adorable forest creatures !!!! Ah !!! the natural surroundings in a countryside in the snowy winter months looks awesome.

To capture that look I have a Step card with sparkling snow land amidst the woodlands and that country scene , all together in one card, actually made possible because of the amazing Christmas collection found at the CottageCutz Store.

Here is my card and all the close up pictures. Its a very simple card and I have added a sparkling dust powder on the die cuts to create that shimmery look.


To make the card,

Cut all the die cuts from CottageCutz dies in white card stock.


For the card base, cut a piece in white measuring 6 Inches by 12 inches. Score at 1", 2" 4" and 6". Fold along the score lines to make a step card.



Create three panels for each step that have a wavy top edge.


Distress wit Tumbled Glass Distress ink and apply clear glue. 

Add the sparkling dust powder and remove the excess. This will create the snowy ground.

Adhere these panels on each step.

For the last panel, Add a frame from Stitched Wide rectangle frame die and top of it adhere the die cuts as shown to create a snowy woodland scene.



On each step, add the die cuts to build up the scene.




Add a sentiment on top to finish the card.

CottageCutz dies used.










I hope you liked this sparkling winter card. Have a great and fun filled Christmas  !!!

Snowy landscape

Hi, Janja here!

Today I share with you another card created with CottageCutz Christmas dies. In the forefront of snowy landscape I placed a fox.


For the card we need:
- craft card base: 4.5 x 6" (11,5 x 15 cm), folded
- light blue paper: 4 x 5-3" (10 x 13,5 cm)
- white and colored cardstock
- Distress ink: Rusty Hinge, Evergreen Bough, Iced Spruce, Vintage Photo, Walnut Stain
- white pigment ink

On light blue background stamp some spruce trees. From white cardstock cut out four stitched ovals (the 7th die from the center) and winter cabin border.


Shadow edges with Distress ink Walnut Stain, and while still wet gently spread them with white pigment ink.


Cut out birch trees with the birch trees and deer die. With Distress ink Walnut Stain strongly emphasize the right edges.


Also prepare a few white cutouts with the snowy tree die. They are treated the same way as ovals.
Cut out the fox from color cardstocks.


"Brr, it's cold outside today", said the fox and put on a scarf  :).


On the right bottom corner stamp warm wishes and start assembling the card. Use a glue and self-adhesive foam pads.


Completed card.
