Christmas Poinsettias

Hello Friends

I have offically started my Christmas cards!  I am lucky I have a few left over from last year so I don't have to make quite as many!  But I am filling my time with some projects for our Church boutique.  The card I am making features the Woodland Christmas Set.

Design Steps:

1.  Use an A2 white card base.  Cut a piece of white card stock 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 and run it through a snowflake embossing folder.  Cut 3 large snowflakes out of glitter card stock using the Crystal Flurry Snowflake die.  Glue the embossed card stock to the front of the card and then add the snowflakes 

2.  Use a white piece of card stock and then blend red and pink ink over the piece

3.  Use a piece of white card stock and blend green inks over the piece

4. Use the Woodland Christmas Set and cut out 3 poinsettia and 6 leaves.  Using the Christmas Floral 2 cut out 5 pine branches

5.  Glue the poinsettia to the front of the card as shown

6.  Add the leaves and the pine branches.  For the Merry Christmas I used the Merry Christmas Ornament and cut out the Merry Christmas.  Add the centers to the poinsettia. I used micro beads called Prills and dyed them yellow.  Your card is complete

Woodsy

Hi everyone today I am back sharing a fun woodsy card perfect for the men in your live or just a friend just because...  I used one of the latest new releases Winter Ski Lodge along with a variety of other sets from The Scrappin Cottagge listed below.

I took the trees from the Rustic Sign & Trees set to set behind my Winter Ski Lodge but to add some fun details I took various pieces from the Christmas Farmhouse Floral set and colored them with my copics to give it a different look to the greenery.

Then I used some balsa wood paper to create the ski lodge and colored various pieces with copics but also used colored cardstock for different pieces to bring everything all together.  Then I put a stitched reindeer from the Woodland Christmas set because what is a lodge without a deer around right?!!

I hope everyone enjoyed my post and welcome 2022 looking forward to an amazing year!

Christmas Poinsettia

Hello Scrapping Cottage Friends

The design team is continuing to use our two new Christmas release dies.  The two releases are at 30% off but this great sale won't last long.  So make sure to take a peek before the prices go up.  I am using one of the very versatile dies the Woodland Christmas Set.  There are a number of great designs on this one die.  I am using the beautiful Poinsettia for this card.

Design Steps:

1.  Use a white slimline base measuring 3 1/2 x 8 1/2.  Cut a piece of white card stock using the Lattice Slimline die for the cards background.  Glue the Lattice to the front of the white slimline base card

2.  Next using the Woodland Christmas Set die cut out the red flowers, green leaves and the gold centers.  For the gold berries I used the Christmas Floral #2

3.  Use a stylus to give the flowers and leaves a little bend.  Rub the back of the petals and then flip over and make a circular motion in the cener of the flower.  For the leaves just rub the back of the leaves

4.  Make your arrangement just slightly below the center of the card.  I used glue dots for the flowers and tucked the leaves and gold berries in with glue

5.  Stamp your sentiment and layer with red card stock.  Glue the sentiment to the front of your card and your card is complete

Santa hitching a ride

Happy Friday Scrapping Cottage fans. I really hope you’ve had a good week and are looking forward to the weekend ahead.  Today I’m sharing a simple and fun card with you, I just love the last 2 releases (well I love all Scrapping Cottages dies).

Firstly I took a piece of pale blue card measuring 6” x 4” when folded. I thought it gave the card a winter look. I then took the ‘Hills Slimline’. And cut them twice, one higher than the other so they could be overlayed. I glued the bottom panel but used 1mm foam pads for the next layer. 

I thought it would be nice to add some trees to the background and I used the trees from the ‘Winter House Accessories’ die. I cut them out of white glitter card and it is hard to see but they really glisten

Next I cut out Santa from ‘Santa’s Delivery’ die and all of the elements from the ‘Snowman Reindeer Die’. I cut the car out twice and layered it on top of each other to give it some depth. when you cut the car out,  it cuts the holes for the lights. I stuck a piece of card behind this and them and used some of my large crystal diamantés so they looked like headlights

I then assembled all remaining elements.I left the snowman’s arm until last so that it fit the steering wheel when put together

I attached the car and Santa using 1mm foam pads. Santa looks like he’s hitching a ride but I’m not sure that he’ll fit in the car. He may have to wait for his sleigh. I cut some holly from the ‘Woodland Christmas Set’ to put in the right hand corner out of the same glitter card as the trees and added some diamantés for berries

So here’s the final card. I really hope you like it. I had so much fun putting this together. I wish you a safe and happy weekend with lots if time to craft
