Creative Team Mountain Christmas Card
by Creative Team member Dani Choate
Supplies:
Card stock - turquoise,
white, dark blue & black
Tombow Mono liquid glue
Instructions:
- Cut and fold a card out of black
cardstock. This will be a landscape card
- Cut a stitched rectangle, one each in
white & turquoise cardstock
- Using the mountain die set, separate
the three die lines (i.e. break the small links to give you three separate dies
that can be used individually
-
cut the white rectangle with the upper die line
-
cut the turquoise rectangle with the lower die line
- Now run the white mountain die cut
through the tiny dot embossing plate. This step needs to be done last so that
the dots will not be flattened with any further pressing with the die cutting
machine. This will now have a snowy mountain effect
- Place the white dotted mountain onto
the black card base.
- Next lay the turquoise mountain die cut
over the white, positioning it to still be able to see some of the white dots
above. Trim the bottom of this blue layer to sit just on the bottom stitched
line of the white. Pop this up on foam tape.
- Now use the 'Forest Deer' die. Cut in
both black and dark blue
Place the dark blue die cut behind the
black die cut but just offset the blue a little to the right (2-3mm) &
slightly above (1-2mm). This should indicate a slight shadow effect. Attach
these two die cuts together in this manner
-This die & shadow unit can now be
added to the front of the card as one piece. Have this piece sit just inside
the edge of the turquoise layer
- Lastly using champagne glitter card
stock, cut 3 small stars from the 'Funky Xmas Tree' die set along with the
script die 'Merry Christmas'. These can all be backed before die cutting with
double sided tape for ease of attaching.
- Adhere 'Merry Christmas' to the bottom
left corner of the card and 3-4 small stars just above the right upper mountain
peak
