The house on Ai Lane by Reneé Matarese

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing a little house I whipped up.
I used a wonderful die that Ai carries called 4619 – Window Die.


Wouldn't we all like to live on Ai Lane??


On the inside I used an image from the Cottage Sets line called  4745 – Talk Much Set.


Copics used:
N2, CO, C5, E37, E43, Y08, YG61, YG63, BG13, R05, R22, R39, R81

UPDATE...

Some people were interested in more details about my card.  I just used a basic stair step card as my base.  The only change I made was to make the side panels 1" instead of 1.25" so that there would be plenty of room for the window. The center panel measures 3.5" wide.  I used this template I found on Google for my card.


I cut the window on the front panel after cutting my card.  It fit right in my Cuttlebug.
The window die is a two piece set.  I cut the inside pane first and then cut and glued the window frame and shutters over the opening.




For the awning I just cut a piece of gray paper the same width as the center portion of the card.  It measures 3 1/2" x 1 3/4".  I scored it and glued it on after cutting some of the scallops and adhering them.  I cut the Martha Stewart grass to the same width as the card and used foam adhesive to create layers for a 3-D effect.


The scalloped panels were popped up with foam adhesive.




I hope this helps!!  It was a fun card to make.

New COTTAGE and DIE! by Reneé Matarese

Hello Ai fans!

Today I'm sharing a one of Art Impressions new releases...Cottage and Die set (sku#4746)
The set includes the adorable little cottage and the two dies to cut the window and door.
The CONGRATULATIONS verse is from here... Hats Off Set (Sku#4289)
The reason for the verse is my friend just moved into a new house!  I thought this would be the perfect card to give her with her house warming gift.


I love how you can look in the window or door and get a preview of what's inside.


On the inside I used TALK MUCH SET (sku#4745) There are 4 different images you can purchase separately for the inside of the cottage cards. (or they'e just cute on their own too...ooo...or with the Windows to the World die or...I'm thinking the possibilities are endless.)


I really love this picture with the light shining through.  I think it helps you understand the dimension that these see through dies, especially the ones like these that "pop" out, add to your card.
