Season's Greeting - Stair step card

Here is my second one tonight. They take some time thinking of what and where to put the objects as you have so many choices ...and oh so fun.

Trees cut from Joy of the Season Cricut cartridge at 2" and 1 1/2"

Penguins - 1", 1 1/2 and 1 3/4 Latered and because they were so small - I colored in the eyes and beak and feet.

Star cut at 1 1/2"
The front seond run through the new Winter Snow embosssing folder by Sizzix.

Sentiment is from Leaves Memories inked with my blue Stazon

Wow - I always wanted to do this type of card, so I created a couple tonight.

I did this for a challenge by Sew Many Cards Challenge #6: Stair Card

Try it out! Super simple. Cut card stock 5 1/2 x 10 1/2 (you can get two out of a 12 x 12 piece of strong card stock

BBtB challenge - use the snowflake from Accent Essentials and Cuttlebug Spot use your favorite folder.

At Bitten By the Bug Regina challenge us to use key # 13 - the Snowflake from Cricut Cartridge Accent Assentials. And Also at The Cuttlebug Spot you can win the folder by creating a card and finding the blinkies.!!! Go to Challenge #42 : Spot the Cuttelbug Spot: New Cuttlebug Folders
I entered this card as well as since I am in the snowflake mood - this is my "cool" favorite folder to use on Holiday Cards.

I cut Image at 2 1/4" on mettalic board I bought at Michael's in the clearance section. The image as mentioned in the title is from Cricut Cartridge Accent Essentials.


I ran Stampin' Up white card stock through the Cuttlebug Snowflake folder and proceeded to hand cut with an exacto knife different areas of the double folded front panel.
I punch a whole in the card and the snowflake to allow it to hang.


I then cut another snowflake shape this time on the shadow feature and sponged it as a stencil on the envelope and the inside of the card.
The sentiment is from Leave memories.

I had this idea in my head for awhile - was not sure which cut or how it was going to turn out. I am pleased with this.
