Warm Winter Wishes

So I actually made this card a while ago, but I've been waiting to share it because the Warm Winter Scene cover plate was sold out and I didn't want to make anyone crazy waiting for it.

This is one of those cover plates that can really do all the work for you.  I cut it using some woodgrain patterned paper, and then red, green, and cream cardstock.

The different pieces were then inlaid into the woodgrain panel.  The cream buildings were inlaid with the windows/doors still intact, and the red ones with the windows/doors removed.

The sentiment is from Flora and Fauna's Arctic Starry Night set.  It was stamped on one of the banners from the Scalloped set, and layered with another banner cut in green.  The ends were snipped off and then it was popped up over the panel.

Have a great Friday!

N&T November Release Week Day 4 - Giveaways

It's the last day of our November release reveals and today I'm showing off my new Warm Winter Scene Cover Plate.  I love this one because it's another of those pieces that does double duty.  It makes a great background, but there are so many things that you can do with the little houses and trees too.  There are actually five different styles of houses and two sizes of trees so it's great for creating scenes like in this first card.

This card was actually inspired by this image I pinned over a year ago.  I thought it would be so much fun to recreate it in a card.



I cut the cover plate from both yellow and white cardstock, placed the houses and then inlaid the windows.  I added the snow accents using a white gel pen, and then embossed the sentiment from the Bright Baubles set on some red cardstock and popped it up to finish it off.



I had a devil of a time photographing my next card.  For this one, I dry embossed the coverplate right onto my card base.  This cover plate is actually a full A2 size so it covers the entire front of your card, no margin/mat. 



I die cut three of the happy holidays sentiments, adhered them together and applied them to the card, and then added the secondary sentiment, from the Happy Holidays stamp set, embossed on a strip of black cardstock.  Super quick and easy and one that you could definitely mass produce.

And that's a wrap!  It's our final release of the year and I really hope you like it!  Be sure to head on over to the Neat & Tangled blog to check out the rest of the team's projects for today and to enter to win today's featured products.
