In this cardmaking tutorial, I’m sharing how to create a detailed house card using my Everyday City Holiday collection. This project features rectangular windows, decorative curtains, and a colorful layered background for a fun and creative scene.
You’ll learn how to:
– Use rectangular window dies on a building base
– Add curtains and curtain details to your windows
– Layer die cuts to build dimension
– Create a colorful background using die cut shapes
– Design a scene card with depth and interest
This is a great project if you enjoy die cutting, building scenes, and adding small details that bring your cards to life.
