Hay Girlfriend Peeker Card

It's Jeanne today with the Tuesday edition of the blog.  My card today is similar to the card I posted on June 4 - the instructions for that card are here. 

This card features  the Cow Peeker from the Country Farm Release.  There are two peekers on this release and both are adorable.  For my cards I made them into gift card holders!

I used Co'Ordinations cardstock that can be sanded to give a distressed look.  If you don't have this type of cardstock,you can used regular cardstock and sand it although you will need to add ink to give it a more distressed look.

The banners use the smallest of the new Nested Stitched Slimline Rectangles.  This die makes wonderful banners!

Hello Scrapping Cottage friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit with us today. It's Mary Marsh here bringing you the Saturday edition of the Blog.

IT'S NEW RELEASE TIME! The collection is called COUNTRY FARM! It has the most delightful dies from Tractors to Cowboy Chicks! Each die is just full of awesome details and can be used for so many different occasions. All of the new dies are on sale at 25% off.

Today for your viewing pleasure, I am featuring the new Farm Cow Peeker  + Farm Pig Peeker and created a birthday card. So let's get started with some details on how I created my card.

Design Steps:

I started off by cutting the cow & pig images. I used various colors of cardstock but you could always use white cardstock and then color the images with your favorite coloring medium. Our design team does each of the ways I just mentioned. 

Since these are peeker images I decided to have them peeking from behind a "wood" themed paper. I wanted to create the idea of barn wood or a fence. It's cut at 1 5/8". For the top part I used a blue sky themed designer paper and attached it under the wood paper. It's cut at 2 3/4".  I cut the papers and used double sided tape to attach them to a piece of white card stock. This entire panel is 4 1/4" x 5 1/2".

Next I started the card assembly. I attached the cow & pig peekers behind the wood paper panel. 

Then, I attached a dark brown layering panel. It measures 5 5/8" x 4 1/4". This was attached to a medium blue card base. This measure 5 3/4" x 4 1/2".

To finish off my card, I stamped sentiments in the top corners of the card and then the happy birthday sentiment on the wood paper. And that's it for me for this week. I hope I have given you another idea for using these new peeker dies. See you next Saturday!
