Merry Moose Card for The Paper Players #466

Comments: 20

Moose and plaid make me glad, and I hope they do you, too.  Get ready for today’s Merry Moose card.  It’s Sunday, and time to play with The Paper Players!

Christmas Moose CardThis week,  Anne Marie has an “Into the Woods” theme for us.  She is challenging us to create projects which feature “woodsy” elements like woodgrain paper,  wood texture, trees, cabins, forest critters, plaid and more.  I went with plaid, trees, and a very recognizable forest critter in creating my Merry Moose card.  Enjoy!

The background on today’s card was created by sponging the night sky area with Night of Navy, Balmy Blue and Highland Heather inks.   The tree images were stamped multiple times using Shaded Spruce and Pretty Peacock inks.

Snowman Easel Card

, , , , ,
Comments: 1

If you are looking for a winter card which is not your ordinary fold,  how about this fun Snowman Easel Card?  It’s time to play at Festive Friday!

Snowman Easel Card

This week, we were inspired by National Button Day.  Your goal is to pick at least 3 choices from our Inspo List and incorporate them on your project.  I selected fabric, circles, and fun fold.  I hope you will join us in our challenge this week. I can’t wait to see what YOU create!

Snowman Easel CardColors of the Day
snowman easel cardThe Stampin’ Schach Design Tips

I’ll admit it. I don’t do a lot of fun folds because I find them scary. I know, I know. This is just a Z fold type easel card, but I had never tried one before because I thought it would be hard. Pffft! Was I ever wrong. It was not only easy, it was fun. I guess that is why they call them FUN folds!  Be sure to click on the tutorial button to get all the step-by-step details, along with measurements, on how I made this card.

The card base was simple. It began with a 4-1/4″ x 11″ piece of Coastal Cabana cardstock, scored at 5-1/2″ and folded.  The easel section was 4″ x 10-1/4″,  scored at 2-1/2″ and 5″.

Snowman Easel Card

I used patterns from the Let It Snow Specialty Designer Series Paper collection to adhere to the sections.

Snowman Easel CardI decorated the larger section with Sparkle Glimmer Paper snow, tree, and snowflakes.

Snowman Easel CardThe snowman takes center stage. He was snipped from the designer paper, and “dressed” in felt pieces from the Let It Snow embellishment kit.  He is standing in Sparkle Glimmer Paper snow.  Once again, the details can be found in the tutorial.

It’s AWESOME! I purchased it as a preorder item, and to be honest, I was a little hesitant to do so. Sorry, Stampin’ Up!, but I was never a fan of our older trimmer.
