September Group Post Part 2

Hello Scrapping Cottage friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit today. We are sampling DT cards from Part 2 of the 2018 Christmas release. There are 29 new designs in this release. 

And, speaking of new releases Christmas Part 3 has just been released along with some new Halloween dies. You will find these in the online store at a 25% off sale. There is also an exclusive die that can only be purchased through the online store. Check out the sweet Dakota the Husky die.

The DT will be showing samples soon with these new dies. Today, we have a group post showing samples from the recently released Christmas Part 2 dies.

Card 1:  This first sample is from Jeanne Knobbe. Using the ever so cute Bake Shop die and pairing it with the Baking Gnomes die, she created a fabulous Christmas side step card. The Gnomes are busy stirring their batter and giving us an idea of what could be taking place inside this bake shop. How perfect would this card be for your baker friend or your child or grandchild?
Card 2:  The next sample is from Pam MacKay and she has also created a fancy fold card. Her technique is a Z Fold or Bridge card. This fold packs a lot of wow and it lays flat for mailing. She used the Holiday Pickup Truck die for her card.
 This 2nd photo shows the bridge section of her card. She has created a wintry scene for her truck and placed it on a "road" that continues with the addition of the bridge. You can see the dimension it adds to her card with this extension piece.
Card 3: This next sample is from Janja Albreht. She used the cute Nordic Gnomes die to create these stunning Christmas tags and placed them on a background of beautiful designer paper. Wouldn't one of these look awesome on that special Christmas gift you are giving. The lamppost and bow are from the Christmas Mice die.  
Card 4: Our last sample for today is another is from Janja Albreht. She used the loveable Peeker Snowmen die to create this charming Christmas card. Her snowy background was created with a stencil and 3D texture paste. She has her snowmen peeking over a big icicle for a creative touch.  
That's our samples for today. Hope the team has given you some new ideas for using these dies.
