Snowy Cabin Christmas Card
by Sara Cook

Hi everyone!  I have a Christmas Scene card featuring the A Frame House die set.

Background:

Trim a light blue paper from the Lagoon paper pad to 4″ x 51/4″ .  Apply a thin layer of white Gesso to the top of the Snowflake Hot Foil Plate.  Place the paper on top of the foil plate and run through the die cutting machine as a normal foil plate without adding heat.  The image should emboss in white on the paper.  Let dry.  Adhere to a A2 panel from Cherry Red paper.  Trim a piece of white glitter paper from the Festive Glitter paper to 1.5″ strip of paper. Adhere to the bottom of the panel.

House:

Die cut the A Frame House die set from heavy white card stock.  Ink blend the pieces using Distress ink using Weathered Wood for the house, Gathered Twigs for the roof, Hickory Smoke for the chimney.  Die cut the door fromCherry Red paper and add shadows with Aged Mahogany ink.  Adhere the door to vellum and add Distress Grit paste Snow Fall to the window corners and the roof top.  Let dry.  Lightly add some Grint Paste Opaque to the top of the other grit paste.  Add a dark red Fairy Jewel from the Christmas pack as a door handle.  Die cut the wreath out of light and dark green paper from the Lush paper pad.  Ink blend with Bundled Sage and Rustic Wilderness.  Adhere on top of the door.  Add red Fairy Jewel from the Christmas pack around the wreath.

Trees:

Die cut the Slender Pine Trees and Layered Narrow Pines from light, medium and dark green paper from the Lush paper pad.  Ink blend with Bundled Sage, Pine Needles and Rustic Wilderness. Adhere together.  Repeat the process for the grit paste, using your fingers to add a heavy amount of the Snow Fall and let dry.  Then add the opaque grit paste to your finger and lightly tap over the dried clear grit paste.  

Assembly:

Adhere the panel to a A2 size card.  Adhere some of the trees to the top of the glitter paper then adhere the house in the center.  Adhere 2 of the trees to either side of the house.  Adhere the Merry Christmas Merry and Bright Foil Banner White tab just above the house in the center of the card.
