The Design Team will be previewing new sets Friday through Sunday and we'll be having a Blog Waltz for the release on Monday so I hope you'll keep stopping by!
And here's my preview card. I used one of the wonderfully detailed cottages in this set, coloring it with Copics. This stamp just screamed at me to layer it - so I stamped it three times, cut out the front with the pointed roof and then just the door and layered them over the first stamping with foam tape.
I used this weeks Split Coast Sketch for my card. You can see the layering here on this side view. I put clear rhinestones on the tops of the chimneys so they look shimmery silver, two orange ones on the circle ornamentation on the base of the gingerbread trim and 3 black ones on the door.
On the inside - I stamped one of the sentiments in black ink. Then I stamped the decorative trees and walkway in grey ink - coloring the trees with a Copic. I just LOVE that walkway - don't you??!!And I'd like to take this opportunity to welcome three new DT members - Becca, Kelly and Clare - please help us give them a warm welcome today!!

Love your card! The walk way is so welcoming. With the fall colors you could a pumpkin out in front.
Julia this is gorgeous!
I love how you "popped" the different layers...
so eye-catching!!
A wonderfully, creative, gorgeous card...
just love it!! :)
Fantastic! Love that walkway up to the topiaries! Seriously can't wait until Monday!
Ohhhhhhh my AMAZING coloring on that Cozy Cottage, Julia! It coordinates just perfectly with that gorgeous patterned paper. I LOVE how you did the inside! Thanks so much for the welcome :0...so excited!
Julia - just wonderful. I do like the warm cozy glow you've made in the cottage windows - the layers look fabulous! Just gorgeous!
Oh lovely. Beautiful fall colours Julia, and the layering looks fab, I love how you added dimension in this way!!! Gorgeous!! hugs to you!!!
A beautiful card! The cottage image is lovely and so is your coloring of it.
I adore how you finished off the inside of your card, Julia! And the warm fall colors that you used are perfect! (Love the way you colored the roof, too!)
Julia!!! Lovely card and your coloring is beautiful.
Julia this is a really pretty card, the house itself is amazing just with the way you colored it, but the popped up layers, especially the door really add to the great design. I love the shading on the windows that give the illusion of light shining from inside the house. So great today, wish I had it already.
Gorgeous card using this sweet new cottage image! Love the dimension and details...down to the rhinestone-studded chimney! :-)
Fantastic card, Julia. I was most taken with the about of dimension your achieved. The thought never occurred to me, but now that I see how great your card is, I'm going to have to CASE your technique with this set. Amazing creativity!
Julia, your card is very pretty, I really like it very much. I like the colours and I mostly like that you made different layers, that looks great.
Kind regards
Carola
This is the first I've seen of the walkway stamp and I love it! Great job and your little door is so cute!
Julia, this is so cute! I love the dimension and how you finished the inside!
Julia, simply beautiful!!! I love how you colored the house, and I love the dimension!! Gorgeous!!
Julia, your card is lovely! I am enjoying all the different takes on the same design. I love that yours is 3-d and the colors. Your sentiment on the inside is just right!
Wow--so AWESOME! Your coloring looks stunning and I love the dimensional look! Can't wait to have this set so I can CASE your card!!!
Gorgeous as always. And I'm a big fan of layering.
Beautiful! I love the attention to the small details!!
Love your card it's very pretty, thank you for sharing it.
Julia, your house is sooooo beautifully colored, and I love how you decorated the inside too!! So, so lovely!!
So beautifully made Julia, and I do love the inside sentiment and the footpath to the front door!
I love that you were able to match the colors on your house to the background paper! Perfect!
Beautiful Julia! I love this set, and the warm colours you have used here show case it to perfection!!
Gorgeous card, Julia. Love the new image.
Beautiful! You made the cottage coordinate perfectly with the background paper and accesories. And here I thought I was a genius for popping out the front of the house. Oh, great minds think alike, right?
Sweet card.
Just so rich and pretty, Julia! Perfect coordination with your patterned paper and I love all the dimension and layers you've given the house! The inside is fab too!
Your card is so beautifully colored - I am so jealous of your talent!
This is beautiful!!!
