Beccy's Place Country Christmas

Happy Monday!

I hope everyone's week is of a good start.

No complaints from me!

Just happy to be here today posting for

Beccy's Place!

The card I'm sharing today was created with one of this month's new digital stamp sets,

Country Christmas.

*************************************************

When you purchase this digital set, you will receive a zip file containing:
- 5 black and white line drawings
- 5 full colour images
- 5 word images / sentiments

*********************************************************

My card design is really pretty simple.

I printed the digi and colored with Prismacolor Pencils before fussy cutting.

An older patterned paper from Crafter's Companion, which I've had for quite awhile

was cut down for my card background.

I adhered the fussy cut image to the center, printed one of the sentiments and die cut.

It was added to the top left corner.

Check this set out!

It's perfect for this year's holiday cards!

 

Fall Wall Decor

Hi there! Today I'm sharing a Fall Wall Decor project created for Clear Scraps!

I’ll be using the Large Circle Shiplap Shape and the Large Tractor Chipboard Embellishment.

To start I added an ivory acrylic paint to the shiplap shape with a brush and then rubbed some off with a dried baby wipe.

Next I added a burnt ochre paint sporadically and around the edge before rubbing with the wipe to give an aged effect.

The tractor is painted next with bronze and black acrylic paint. I added black circles cut out of card stock to the center of the wheels.

A digital barn image purchased on Etsy was printed. 

I tore around the edges of the print and inked with a brown stamp pad. 

Mod podge was applied to the back of the print.

The print was adhered to the shiplap shape. Mod podge was added over the front surface of the shiplap and dried with a heat gun.

Time to add the tractor. I added some pieces of cardboard to the backside for a little dimension, before adhering to the shiplap.

Ribbon and sunflowers were pulled out.

I made a 3 loop bow and added to the top of the shiplap circle.

5 sunflowers were added.

I wanted to add a little something more, so pulled out a Blessed Chipboard Word Title.

Color was add to the word title with an alcohol marker.

The project is complete.

I hope you like my project as much as I enjoyed putting it together.

Greeting Card Box Set

I think everyone could use a greeting card every once in a while, so why not create a Greeting Card Box Set to give as a gift?

Hey there! I'm here today with my latest project for CutCardStock.

Lessebo Colors AMAZON Dark Teal Card Stock, Cougar NATURAL Card Stock ,  Stardream Metallic COPPER Card Stock, Digital Alcohol Ink Patterned Paper on Cougar Natural Card

Cards

Start by making a set of 6, A2 cards by cutting 3, 8 1/2 x 11 inch pieces of Cougar Natural Card Stock in half at 5 1/2 inches along the 11 inch side. Score each of these pieces in half at 4 1/4 inches along the 8 1/2 inch side and fold.

Next I cut the 8 x 8 inch piece of pattern paper into 6 pieces. Two pieces are rectangular and the other 4 are triangular.

6 pieces of the Copper Metallic card stock are cut to mat the pattern paper.

Adhere the mats to the pattern paper. I cut 2 smaller rectangular pieces of pattern paper and matting.

Add the above pieces to the card bases.

Die cut sentiment out of the Lessebo Amazon Teal Card Stock.

Adhere the sentiments to the cards. Add some gems to complete.

Box Construction

I start the box construction with an 8 1/2 x 11 inch piece of Lessebo Amazon Card Stock. Score this piece at 1 3/4 and 6 3/4 inches along the 8 1/2 inch side. 

Turn to the 11 inch side and score at 2 3/4 inches to the 1st score line and from the 2nd score line to the lower edge. This will be the back part of the box. 

Also score at 6 and 7 3/4 inches all the way down.

Take and turn this card stock to your right. Cut diagonally from the score lines on either side down the the outer edges on either side to the 1st score line.

Cut along the 2 lower score lines from the outside edge to the inner score lines on either side.

Fold along the score lines. Add adhesive to the edge pieces of the 2 lower panels as shown in photo below.

Bring the back of the box up and adhere the 2 small tabs to the inside.

Lastly, bring the bottom up and adhere the side flaps.

Box Embellishment

With the box construction complete, we can embellish.

I am adding some of the pattern paper, pieces of solid card stock and die cuts.

A piece of pattern paper measuring 4 3/4 x 5 3/4 inches covers the back panel of the box.

Strips of 1 1/2 inch wide Ivory card stock wrap around the center of the box.

A rectangular die cut goes on next, with a 1 1/4 inch strip of pattern paper over it.

3 die cuts are added with some gems to the box.

Place the cards with coordinating envelopes into the box and the project is complete.

Thanks for taking the time to check out my Greeting Card Box Set project! I hope I have given you some inspiration.
