Valentines cards

Two of my Valentine cards...

Tri-fold or Shutter Card

I made the flower using my Big Shot. First I cut out the flower, then I got the paper wet, and crumpled up the flower, then unfold. let it dry, then glued it all together. the center is a glitter dot. I added a little glitter on the tips of the flower.

Card #1
Supplies:

• One 5 1/2" x 12" piece of Cardstock
• Scor-Pal... (I just use the paper cutter and scor my paper with the bone folder)
• Paper Cutter
• Patterned Paper
• Bone Folder
• Craft Knife

Place 5 ½” x 12" piece of cardstock horizontally in your Scor-Pal.

Score at 2”, 4”, 8” and 10”.

Make a slit with a craft knife 1 ½” form the top and bottom,  between the score marks at 2” and 10”. (I use my paper cutter to cut).

Fold card.

 Cut 4 pieces of patterned paper 1 3/8” x 1 3/8”.

Cut 2 pieces of patterned paper 1 3/8” x 3 7/8”.
Cut 1 piece of patterned paper 2 3/8” x 3 7/8”.
Dry fit all of the pieces, then adhere to card base.
Embellish & decorate.

 I hope I didn't leave anything out.

My Dept 56 New England Village

Now that Christmas is over and I'm just about ready to take down my Village, I'm posting pic's...LOL just a little behind.

I made a platform from styrofoam. Hot glued small rocks on the sides to make it look like a bulkhead, and Made steps out of small rocks, also pushed into the styrofoam...

Put down blue Vinyl for water...

Added little people, Trees, snow, benches, etc..

I only have four houses on this platform, I like to make my village look like a real village...

Have a wonderful New Year.
