You can check out my see thru window tutorial if you would like to see step by step photos of the basic steps of how I created this card. The window die used in the tutorial is different but the basic steps are the same. Thanks for coming by and I hope you have a great weekend.

Die Cut Christmas Window

Nov 22, 2018 | Christmas, Die Cut, Rubbernecker, Window Cards | 6 comments

Good Thanksgiving morning. I have a rustic die cut window scene card to share with you today. The Window and background was stamped with the Rubbernecker Wood Grain Background and the tree and window arrangement was made using Greenery, Berries and the snow topper on the window was made using Deckle Hills. I used one Small Bird on the window arrangement and one star from the Stars Die on top of the tree..

Rustic Window and Card Base

Cut the window and card base using Kraft cardstock.
Secure the Wood Grain stamp in the MISTI and apply white pigment ink.
Secure the window and background in the MISTI and stamp the image.
Apply white embossing powder on each piece and emboss with the heat gun.
Apply brown ink to the window and background layer using a wet wipe. Hint: the wet wipe is a perfect way to get good ink coverage over an embossed area. Just gently dab the wipe on the ink pad and smooth the ink over the whole piece.
Set the pieces aside to dry.

The Christmas Tree

Hand cut a piece of green cardstock in the shape of a Christmas tree triangle.
Cut several sections of the greenery die using green cardstock.
Cut the greenery sections into small sections and begin attaching them to the top of the tree triangle using glossy accents.
Continue adding pieces of greenery to the tree base using larger and larger pieces as you work your way down.
Check out my Evergreen Tree video tutorial and step by step photos over at Splitcoaststampers to see how I build my tree. The tutorial was done with different greenery branches but the procedure is exactly the same.
Punch out several 1/8″ circles using red cardstock and attach them to the tree using glossy accents.
Apply sparkle to the red circles using a clear overlay pen.
Cut the gold star using metallic gold cardstock and attach to the tree using glossy accents.
Finish the tree with a tiny red bow made using .50 cent ribbon from Michaels.

Assembling The Card Base and Window

Use the window as a template to draw cutting lines on the window base.
Cut the opening on the window base using a craft knife.
Cut a matching window opening on the card base using the craft knife.
Apply mounting tape around the window opening on the backside of the card base.
Attach a piece of designer paper to the window opening. I used a piece of retired Kaiser Kraft Christmas paper.
Apply double stick tape to the back of the window opening and attach the tree.
Apply mounting tape around the edges of the window layer and a couple pieces around the window opening and attach it directly over the window opening on the card base.
Attach the window die cut directly over the window opening.

The Window Arrangement and Snow

Cut the greenery and berry branches using green cardstock.
Cut the berries using red cardstock, pick them up using the jewel picker and attach them to the berry branches using glossy accents.
Apply sparkle to the berries using a clear overlay pen.
Attach the branches to the window base using glossy accents and continue to fill in the arrangement.
Tuck the berry branches in behind the the front layers of greenery and attach using glossy accents.
Check out my step by step tutorial on creating an open window and evergreen arrangement.
Cut the deckle section using white cardstock and trim to fit the top of the window.
Apply white embossing paste to the white layer using your finger.
Apply white embossing paste to the branches and berries using a small stylus.
Some of the brown ink floated up into the white embossing paste so I used touches of white gesso to cover.
Attach one small red bird to the branches and a multi loop bow to the arrangement for the finishing touch.

Check out the Early Black Friday Sale over at Rubbernecker Stamps to see all the dies and stamps on sale. Both the Window and Greenery dies that I used today along with lots of my other favorite dies are on sale for 40%.

Thanks for coming by today to see my die cut Christmas window. I hope you have a blessed Thanksgiving holiday with your family and friends and hopefully you’ll get some time to spend in your craft room this weekend. Happy Thanksgiving!

Clean and Simple Pine Christmas Cards

Oct 14, 2018 | Christmas, Die Cut, Rubbernecker, Window Cards, Wreath | 7 comments

Good Sunday morning. I have two clean and simple pine Christmas cards to share with you today made using the new Rubbernecker Twigs die. For my first card I used the twigs to create a small pine wreath and paired it with the Window 4 Pane die and embellished the wreath with a bright red multi loop bow..

The Window and Card Base

Cut a piece of green designer paper 4.25″ x 2.75″ and attach it to the top of the card base using ATG adhesive.
Cut a piece of white card stock 4.25″ x 3.00″, score it every .25″ across the paper using your Scor-Pal and attach to the card base using ATG adhesive.
Cut two windows using white cardstock.
Use the window as a template to draw cut lines on the card base.
Cut the opening on the card base using your craft knife. Cut about 1/8″ outside the drawn cut lines.
Apply mounting tape to the back of the window and attach over the front opening of the card base.
Apply ATG adhesive to the back f the second window and attach it to the inside opening of the card base.

The Wreath

Cut a circle wreath base using green cardstock.
Cut several sets of the Twigs.
Trim off the top half of the twigs to make small enough for this wreath size.
Attach the twigs to the wreath base using glossy accents. Alternate the the direction of the twigs, one left, one right and one center and continue all the way around the wreath.
Create a multi loop bow and attach it to the wreath using glue dots.
Attach the wreath to the lower window using glossy accents.
You can check out my wreath video and step by step tutorial on Splitcoaststampers.

My second card paired the Twigs with the Borders #3. I created a pine twig bough on the pretty white layer and embellished it with a red multi loop bow.

The Scalloped Layer

Cut the Borders #3 using white cardstock.
Attach the layer to the card base using strips of mounting tape.

The Pine Twigs Bough

Cut several sets of the Twigs die using green cardstock.
Begin attaching twigs in the center of the white layer using glossy accents, alternating the twigs left and right to create the the bough base.
Trim off the bottom third of several twigs and attach them to fill in over top of the base to create a full bough.
Create a multi loop red bow and attach to the bough with glue dots.

I had fun making these die cut pine Christmas cards. As much as I love creating detailed scene or floral projects with lots of part and pieces, it is always nice to make several clean and simple cards to have on hand for those last minute card needs. Today is the last day of the Rubbernecker sale. Be sure and check out all the new dies that I have used over the last several posts. Thanks so much for coming by.

Die Cut Window and Adirondack Chair Scene

Oct 13, 2018 | Die Cut, Rubbernecker, Scene, Window Cards | 3 comments

Good Saturday morning. I have a die cut window and Adirondack chair scene card to share with you today along with a simple framed Adirondack chair scene card. The first scene was made using the new Rubbernecker Window 4 Pane, Beach Chairs, Tree Panel #2, Leaf Group, Flower Buds, Tiny Flower Buds and Small Birds.

The Double Window and Base Card Opening

Cut two windows using white cardstock.
Cut off the left side of one window and the right side of the second window.
Turn the windows face down, line them up and attach them together using double stick tape.
Cut a thin strip of cardstock and cover the double stick to secure the attached windows.
Place the two attached windows on the card and use the inside of the windows as a template to draw cutting lines on the base.
Cut the opening on the card base using a craft knife.
Apply strips of mounting tape all the way around the back side of the window and set aside.

The Cloud Background and Tree Branch

Cut a piece of white cardstock 5.00″ x 3.75″.
Create a cloud background using a cloud stencil, Tumbled Glass ink and an ink blending tool.
Cut the tree panel using green cardstock, cut a main branch section off the panel and attach it to the inside opening of the card base using glossy accents.
Attach thin strips of mounting tape all the way around the front of the cloud base and attach it over the opening on the inside of the card base.
I believe the Papertrey designer paper I used on the card base is retired.

Complete the Die Cut Window and Adirondack Chair Scene

Cut a beach chair and small birds using blue cardstock.
Cut flower buds and tiny flower buds using pink cardstock.
Cut a section of the leaf group using green cardstock.
Form all the flowers using a tiny tipped stylus and molding pad.
Attach the tiny flowers to the tree branch using glossy accents.
Attach the chair to the blue card base using tiny strips of mounting tape.
Cut the leaf group sections apart and attach them on both sides of the3 chair and window opening using glossy accents.
Attach the larger flowers to the leaves using glossy accents.
Attach the birds to the scene using small pieces of mounting tape.
Finish the card by placing the window over the scene and attaching to the card base.
Hint: I kept placing the window over the opening as I attached the chair, foliage and birds to make sure they would be seen well when the window was attached.

My second card was made using the Rectangle Combo #2, Beach Chairs, Grass, Leaf Group, Flower Buds and Small Birds.

The Framed Adirondack Chair Scene

Cut the chair using white cardstock.
Cut the rectangle frames using white cardstock.
Attach the two frame sections together on the back using double stick tape.
Attach two sections of grass to the back of the frame using double stick tape.
Apply thin strips of mounting tape to the back of the frame and grass and attach it to the card base.
Tuck the chair in behind the grass and attach it with thin strips of mounting tape.
Cut the flower buds and birds using red cardstock.
Form the flowers using a tiny tipped stylus and molding pad.
Cut a leaf group using green cardstock and cut the leaf sections apart to create several branches.
Tuck the leaf sections in behind the grass and frame and attach using glossy accents.
Attach the flowers to the leaves using glossy accents.
Finish the scene by attaching the birds using small pieces of mounting tape.

I hope you have been inspired by my die cut window and Adirondack chair scene cards. I had lots of fun making them. Have you checked out the Rubbernecker sale yet? The sale ends tomorrow. I sure do appreciate you coming by and I hope you have a great weekend.

I couldn’t resist adding this fun birthday card to my post. I used the same color combination as my first card along with the new Circle Background with Stitch, Nested Rectangle Scallop with Holes, Nested Rectangle with Rounded Corners and Best Friends.

The Circle Background and Sentiment

Cut the circle background once with white, blue, yellow and green.
Turn the white circle background face down.
Fill in the white circle background by mixing and matching the colorful circles, placing them face down in the circle openings and attach with double stick tape.
Cut the blue scallop background and attach it to the back of the circle background using double stick tape.
Attach the completed circle background with scalloped layer to the card base using mounting tape.
Stamp the sentiment using Onyx Black versafine, heat emboss with clear embossing powder and attach to the circle base using mounting tape.

I had so much fun creating these die cut window frame cards. The possibilities are endless. Be sure and hop over to Rubbernecker Stamps to check out the new October die release section.

Die Cut Window Scene

Oct 9, 2018 | Die Cut, Rubbernecker, Window Cards | 4 comments

I have a clean and simple die cut window scene card to share with you today using the new Rubbernecker Window 4 Pane, Small Ivy and the Tiny Flower Buds. I created the indoor scene looking out the window to the ivy and flowers growing around the outside of the window. I made a simple cloudy blue sky background for the outside of the window. The designer paper is from a retired Papertrey pattern pack.

The Wainscoting and Paper Background

Cut white cardstock 4.25″ wide and score every 1/4″ inch across to create the wainscoting.
Cut a piece of designer paper 4.25″ wide and attach it to the card base using ATG adhesive.
Apply ATG adhesive to the wainscoting and attach to the card base and overlapping the designer paper.

The Window

Cut the window using white cardstock.
Cut a 1/4″ strip of white cardstock and run through the crimper.
Use the window as a template to draw cutting lines on the card base.
Cut the window opening using a craft knife.
Apply thin strips of mounting tape to the back of the window and attach it over the opening.
Apply double stick tape to the back of the 1/4″ strip of cardstock and tuck it under the window and attach it to create a chair rail to cover where the white and blue paper meet..

The Ivy and Flowers

Cut a few sets of the ivy using green cardstock and a set of the tiny flower buds using blue cardstock.
Trim off the stems of the ivy to fit inside the window.
Apply glossy accents to the ivy pieces and attach to the inside opening of the window.
Form the tiny flowers using a tiny tipped stylus and molding pad.
Apply glossy accents to the tiny flowers and attach them to the ivy.

The Cloudy Sky Background

Cut a piece of cardstock large enough to cover the inside opening of the window.
Apply blue cloud background using a cloud template, Tumbled Glass ink and an ink blending tool.
Apply thin strips of mounting tape around the window opening and attach the blue sky background.

I love to make die cut window scene cards. Whether it is creating an indoor scene looking out or and outdoor scene looking in. They are both equally fun to make. I hope you have been inspired to pull out your window dies and see what you can come up with. Thanks for coming by and I hope you have a great day.
