Farmhouse Christmas with Starburst Background
Using the fun Starburst Technique as the background paper for our card, we still get to use the fun images from Farmhouse Christmas. This set can be used year round, this vintage truck is so great for masculine cards to. So many options!!
This Card is easier to make than it seems, and the dies are GREAT!!!
1.Cardbase is Cherry Cobbler is 5 1/2 in x 8 1/2 folded 4 1/4.
2. White base 4 in x 5 1/4.
3. You want 7-8 strips 1 1/2 x 6 in of DSP, I am using the Festive Farmhouse DSP. I stacked 2 of these strips together and then lined top right corner of paper with groove on my paper trimmer and the bottom left corner. This should be giving you a triangle. Make sure before you cut! Do this to all the papers.
4. Before securing to the white paper, I arranged the papers on the white paper with all the skinny edges going to the right, leave a little white edge between each piece paper. When you are happy with the arrangement, then glue down, I used multi purpose glue so I could wiggle it around a little.
5. Stamp out images on the the frame lit cut out pieces, tree and car, and I cut out little sentiment on tiny banner to the left edge. Then you have a fence already cut out on adhesive sheet. Adhere this sheet down to cobbler base.
6. I colored the car with cherry cobbler light blend and old olive for the tree. The big tree has some shading with soft suede and crumb cake.
7. Decide where you want your fence to be, then place your tree down first, then secure fence down on top but little lower than tree. Then truck goes in front of fence.
8. I cut out banner edge on right of sentiment and placed dimensional. Secured to top of card.
Here is the video for the Visual PEEPS!
