Happy Saturday! I’m back today to share a couple of projects using the latest Small Die of the Month Kit from Spellbinders. The December 2020 kit, “Daydreaming“, contains 17 dies to create a big beautiful window scene complete with potted plants, fuzzy critters, and tons of options for outdoor landscapes. What’s more…it coordinates perfectly with this month’s Large Die of the Month Kit, “Look Behind The Curtain“!
I wanted to create a frosty winter scene for this card, so I started by applying Prism Hot Foil to white cardstock using the Twinkle Lights Hot Foil Plate and my Glimmer Hot Foil Machine. Then I blended Tumbled Glass and Spun Sugar Distress Ink over the panel and cut it with the two window dies from the kit to create the snowy scene. The potted plant and cats were cut next and details were added with Copic markers.
To assemble, I first added a piece of patterned paper from the Christmas Wishes Card Kit to a top fold A2 white card base (these new pre-cut and scored card bases from the Card Shoppe are amazing!) with tape runner. Then I cut the window pieces twice from white cardstock, layered them, and adhered them to the center of the card front with liquid glue. After piecing in the wintry sky panels, I added the kitties and plant to the windowsill with foam adhesive. A few enamel hearts from my stash finish off this simple and pretty love card.
This next card is an example of how you can use both the Large Die and Small Die of the Month Kits together (see my other projects using the curtain die set here!). My cats love to hang out behind window sheers…I’m pretty sure they think they can see us but we can’t see them when they sneak behind them! I wanted to create a dreamy scene using vellum for my curtains, so picked this sparkly confetti vellum from my stash to cut the side panels and valence, but lined the valence with white cardstock to hide the mechanism behind it.
When the curtains are closed, you can still see the scene behind it…which I think helps the recipient figure out what to do with this unique type of interactive card too!
The night sky was creating by blending Blueprint Sketch, Wilted Violet, and Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide Inks over white cardstock before cutting it with both the rectangular window die and the starry inset dies. I added two white window frames stacked up to the card front before nestling the starry sky pieces inside.
My cute kitty was cut from some white cardstock before coloring her to look like my own Blooter with Copic markers. I added her with foam adhesive atop a windowsill sentiment cut from Frosted Silver Cardstock.
