BOO! to You

Happy Friday Cottage Cutz fans!  It's Jeanne today with a quick and easy card featuring the ghosts from the new Halloween release.  This release along with the Christmas Part 3 release are on sale for a limited time on the web site.
There are several ways to decorate these ghosts including a witch.  I chose to use the lantern and the jack-o-lantern with these two.  First I cut all the pieces from white cards tock.
I used a sponge dauber and Smoky Slate ink to add just a little shading to the ghosts.  The rest of the pieces I colored using Copic markers.
For the background I cut a piece of mixed media paper slightly larger then A2 and used Washi tape to tape it to a masonite board.  This helps keep the paper from warping while making a wash background.  I used the Smoky Slate ink.
 After I had my "mist" I stenciled some bats on top using the Smoky Slate. When everything was dry I cut it down to A2 size.
For the word "BOO" I cut both orange and black letters using the Sugar & Cream die. 
I decided to use the black letters on top with a hint of orange underneath.
I used foam dots to adhere the ghost and glued it all to an A2 card base.
Fun card and easy to make.

Hello Spring

Hi!

It's Anja here. I have two cards for you today, made with new Cottage Cutz dies. You have to check out the new Llamas & Botanical release that is already available in the store. The llamas are so cute. But first I tried out the lovely spring flowers.


For two cards I used:
- Cottage Cutz dies (Botanical Garden 1, Botanical Garden 2, Sugar & Cream Alphabet),
- Zig Rel Brush Markers (Numbers: 021, 023, 025, 026, 027, 041, 043, 044, 045, 046, 050, 051, 052, 070, 080, 084),
- Gansai Tambi watercolors,
- Distress Oxide (Peeled Paint),
- white card base (2 15x11 cm),
- watercolor paper for background (2 14,6x10,6 cm) and die cuts,
- adhesive foam pads,
- foil,
- heat gun,
- watercolor brush,
- paper glue.

First I cut two rectangles from watercolor paper and spritzed with green color first.


I used foil and put it over the drops and to get different marks.


Then I spritzed other three colors and did the same with the foil.


I cut flowers and other greenery with Botanical Garden dies. I used watercolor paper for the die cuts. I glued the cuts on the background paper.



Then I started coloring. I used Zig markers and watercolor brush. I colored first and then glued some cuts on the colored flowers.


When I had everything colored I used Distress Oxide Peeled Paint to shadow the edges of the paper and also the spaces between the flowers.

 

Then I cut Hello and Spring words and colored it with Zig markers.



I glued the words on smaller pieces of paper. I did the same with the edges.



In the end I glued the everything on the card base using adhesive foam pads.

 

And this are my colorful spring cards.




I hope you'll give llamas and other botanical dies a try. You can get them for 25 % discounted price. I can't wait to use the other new dies.


Have a wonderful Sunday and see you again next week.
Anja Z.

I Love U


Hello everyone , today I'm sharing my card designed using 4 different CottageCutz Dies. I LOVE this sweet CottageCutz "Puppy Love Carrier" he is too CUTE!

I decided to airbrush him using the copic markers, and airbrushing system. I then went in and used some Creative Inspiration Paints on him and the LOVE after they were colored. The Bee Mine frame was done using the same technique. I used the center piece as a templete so I could leave a white area for my image.


CottageCutz Dies Used: All are LINKED for easy finding.






The I and U are from the CottageCutz Sugar & Cream Alphabet Die. I cut them out with white card stock and colored them with black. Lastly I added some RRRibbon, and a button with some gems.


Hope everyone had a Happy Valentines Day!!!
Hugs to all,
Cheryl

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Build-a-Butterfly! you can double layer,triple layer like I did here! I used 2 of the big pieces of the butterfly and then 1 of the smaller for the fancy wings. I thought making it 
3-D with Helmar's Scrap dots was perfect, now the wings will stay out like shown in my picture. I distressed the edges too. the Dp i used on the bag is what I also used for the Butterfly, and its listed above as well.

The Flower Mini was cut using the same dp, and then distressed the edges with tim holtz antique linen. I added some pearls to the centers.

I also LOVE using the pennants, as they are perfect for cards,bags,layouts,mini's and other altered art!

Thank you for looking and have a lovely day!!!
Hugs to all,
Cheryl
