Snow Scene Card

Good Afternoon!

I’m posting last months KnK Design Team project here in case you didn’t see it at the time over at the Team KnK blog and also to include the cut file into my archive.

Today’s the day that I start to get organised for the festive season ahead so I’ve made my first Christmas card of the year, I will be ready this year, lol!

It was a little odd trying to get into the festive spirit while the sun was shining outside so I looked around on the internet for some inspiration for today’s card. I found a few ideas that I liked and set about to creating my card incorporating some of them, the digital sentiment and cut file are available at the end of the post :)

Materials:

My trusty Zing, Make the Cut software, Textured card stock, Gems, Printer

Settings:

Blade = Standard, Blade Height = 25 post-it notes, Offset = 0.30, Speed = 10, Force = 80, Passes = 1

Below are the pieces you will need to cut out with your chosen KNK cutter to recreate today’s card. I cut the card base in white to resemble snow and cut my insert in dark blue to give the effect of a night time sky:

The picture below shows where to apply your adhesive, fold along your perforated line then place your adhesive next to your fold on the right hand side:

Next, fold your insert and line it up with the adhesive then press it into place:

Now that your card is assembled, you can decorate it to your hearts content!

Here’s how my finished card looks:

I decorated my card by adding some mini gems to look like stars in the sky. I printed my sentiment onto some white card then layered it with some of the blue insert paper and popped it onto my card with 3d foam pads. My card needed a little something to finish it off so I cut a snowflake, I added a larger gem to the middle then adhered it to the corner of my sentiment.

Lacey Circle 2

Good Afternoon!

I have the last of my second lace-y set for you today, you can find the border here and the square frame here which both match today’s circle frame.

As with all of my more intricate designs I recommend  lightweight card/heavyweight paper of about 160gsm (approx 60 lbs), I used Xerox Colour Impressions for my lace circle, I cut it at 5.8 inches. I cut a 6 inch circle card from some heavyweight card, I measured the middle area of my lace circle and cut another circle slightly larger then covered both my card and the extra circle with patterned paper. I tied a bow in some Pink Tulip Seam Binding to match my patterned paper then added a pink heart button. I printed my sentiment in brown and sized it to fit inside a spellbinders die using these methods and sat it on top of a joy die cut frame. My last step was to mount all of my layers together with some 3d foam pads to add some dimension.

I’ve also added the digital Sentiment I used for my card.  I changed the colour of my digi sentiment to match the colour scheme of my card using this method.
