Penguin's Christmas Tree

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.

Bringing Home the Christmas Tree!

Hello to all of You!

It is Pam sharing with you on the blog today.

Guess what!!!  Part 2 of the new Christmas release is out and ready for you to take a peek.  Just go to our online store to check it out.  You will not be disappointed.  It is fantastic and I can't wait to start to play with all the new dies.  Be looking for the Design Team inspiration coming soon.

For today,  I am using one of the dies from the Part 1 new Christmas release.  It features two adorable penguins!

Design Steps:

 1.  Using the Penguin's Christmas Tree die cut out all of the pieces using green, red, yellow, black and white card stock

 2.  Shade and assemble the pieces.  I shaded with a sponge and different color inks to match the items being shaded

 3.  For the base use white card stock size A2.  Cut a piece of Red card stock 5 1/4 x 4, a piece of green checked DP 5 x 3 3/4. Using the largest Nested Stitched Eyelet Rectangle die cut a piece of whtie card stock and run it through the dotted embossing folder

4.  Glue the green checked DP to the red card stock and then add the white rectangle.  Add the red ribbon by taping it to the back of the red card stock.  Last pop up the penguin die to the white rectangle.  Next glue to the white card base and add you sentiment.  To finish add a little sparkle to the hats with clear glitter and shine to the star with Glossy Accents.
