The Peaceful Cabin stamp and dies are not just for Winter. Yes, you can make a beautiful winter scene, but have you thought of a summer, spring or fall card?  It all depends on the elements you use on the card. For example, the card below could be a fishing cabin on a bright sunny day in the summer.

Assemble  Card

• Use the 2nd largest Diorama Die to cut out the shape in the Basic White cardstock.
• With the Blending Brush and Balmy Blue ink pad,  brush on color going from light to medium dark.  Start at the bottom and add more color as you go up. In the middle , brush ink on a little heavier and make the line quite dark. Curve the line a bit to look like hills in the background.
• Use the cabin die to cut a a shape from Crumb Cake.
• Cut a cabin from Early Espresso with the cut out die.  Layer the shape onto the solid cabin.
• Cut the large trees from the Old Olive and the matching trees from Pear Pizzazz.  Layer these on the Old Olive trees.  Cut the 3 smaller trees from Pear Pizzazz.
• Cut the fence from the Cork Specialty paper for the fence.
• Attach the diorama panel to the Cork Specialty paper.  Place the elements on this diorama panel. (See the card above.)
• Wrap the Linen Thread around the Cork layer twice and tie a bow.  Attach the panel to the card base.
• Choose a sentiment that suits the occasion.  Stamp on Crumb Cake scrap, die cut and attach to card front.

PS – I didn’t add a sentiment as I haven’t decided who will receive the Peaceful Cabin.  But I will figure it out.
