Countdown to Christmas Day #10- Deer card

   I am doing a 12 day countdown with Christmas projects.

Here is day #10.......

 

Check out these fun deer cards!

Which do you like better?

THIS- the left one (vertical)?

OR

THAT- the right on (horizontal)? 

Aren't these adorable!

These were one of my projects I supplies at a team retreat I had last month.

Look at the deer.

Isn't he adorable!

He was made using these 3 dies & just so easy to do!

NOW.........

Check out the card stock paper weaved braid that I added to my card front.

 

HOW DID I DO IT?

1.  Start with 4 pieces of 1/2 x 12" of DSP 

& adhere the 4 strips together so that they look like this.

2.  NOW weave them by folding each edge over the other.

3. NOTICE how the look as you weave them- so COOL HUH!

4.  This is what the weaved paper braid looks like.

You will continue weaving to the end.

5.  Now adhere the braided paper weave to the card front.

6.  Cut it off to the length of the card, using Paper Snip Scissors.

7.  You will want to add a little adhesive to the ends of the DSP 

that you cut off so that it all stays together.

WOW HUH!

 

Isn't it just SOOO PRETTY!

I just love the way it turned out!

So what do you think?

Countdown to Christmas Day #8- Snowman Shaker card

 

 I am doing a 12 day countdown with Christmas projects.

Here is day #8.......

 

Check out today's Snowman Shaker card!  

I just LOVE shaker cards & have made many of the over the years.

I think that this one turned out so cute.

But I love snowman & snowflakes....so it is totally me.

 

I die cut these images out of the 

#164333- Snowy Scenes DSP= $12.50- LAST CHANCE LIST

How did I make the shaker card?

• Cut a piece of 4 x 5 1/4" Pool Party Two-Toned card stock, embossed it with the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder.  I lightly sanded the embossed snowflakes with a sanding block.
• I cut a piece of White Glimmer Specialty Paper to 1 x 5 1/4" &  ripped it in half & adhered along the bottom (for the snow).
• Put this into a Clear Envelope & slide to an edge & bottom.
• Then fold over the edge & use Tear & Tape to make it snug around the other side/corner.
  
• Put approximately 1/8 tsp of White Loose Snowflakes into the Clear Envelope & SEAL the end shut.
• Put dimensionals around all the edges on the backside of the Clear Envelope.
• Adhere the Thick Basic White card stock base that measures 4 1/4 x 11"- scored at 5 1/2" & folded in half.
  
• Add the die cut images to the front of the Clear Envelope using dimensionals.

 

Isn't this just so cute!
