Staring into the Night

Hi!

It's Anja here. Today I have two cards for you. When I saw both dies it only seemed logical to combined it with a landscape background. And with adding different sentiments we could make cards for different occasions.


For two cards I used:
- Cottage Cutz dies (Santa & Reindeer Resting, Loyal Pets),
- Distress Inks (Vintage Photo, Brushed Corduroy, Barn Door, Aged Mahogany, Black Soot, Peeled Paint. Twisted Citron, Stormy Sky, Pumice Stone, Seedless Preserves, Faded Jeans, Chipped Sapphire),
- 2x white card bases (13x13 cm),
- white card stock for die cuts and background,
- watercolor paper for background (12x12 cm),
- dark blue card stock for background (12,3x12,3 cm),
- water spritzer,
- white acrylic paint,
- brush,
- heat gun,
- paper glue.

I started with cutting and coloring the images. First Santa and Reindeer.


And then the dog and the cat.


Next I made the background. I used different shades of Distress Inks and blended it together. I used watercolor paper for background.


Then I spritzed the paper with water and dried it. And next I used white acrylic paint to made the snow. Again I dried it and made one more.


I used white card bases. And I cut two more dark blue background papers.


For the snow I used white paper and cut it with the scissors. I just cut the paper as it would look like the ground where the images sit. I used grey Distress Ink for the edges.


And then I just arranged and glued everything together and two card were made.






And that's all I have for you today. I just want to invite you to the The Scrapping Cottage online store to check out the sales.

Have a nice Sunday.
Anja Z.
