Art Journal - Live Life Through Art

Hello creatives!  Do you love art journaling?  
I am excited to be sharing the start of my newest art journal, live life through art using the Cornucopia die.
I die cut using watercolor paper.  Then I used watercolors to color in the pieces.
With the leaves, I blended the rich colors of autumn together.
Once dried, I used a charcoal pencil to add additional details.
Then I layered the die cuts adding pop dots to some of the dies to add dimension.
Next, I added lace, additional papers, burlap and ribbon to complete the front of the art journal.

Die used:

Wishing you a creative day.

Thank You Card in Pastel Shade

Hello dear friends !!!!

It's Anita here with new craft inspirations. As the days are progressing, the festive fever is catching up. Cardmaking is in full swing. Fall has made its entry and its time for Thanksgiving and fall cards.
Today, I have given a new colour to Fall .. light pastel blue.
It has a touch of Christmas with all that glitter and the yellow flowers give a hint of Autumn.
CottageCutz has released awesome Christmas and Autumn themed dies that you are going to love. Do have a look at them here.

My card for today.





Step by Step Instructions

Cut out a card panel 4 inches by 6 inches and using the circle die from CottageCutz Nested Ornaments-Ball cut a medium circle. Cut out two more circle frames using the same die and the CottageCutz Stitched Circle die.



Distress the card panel with Evergreen Bough Distress ink and score at 1/8 th inch interval on the scoreboard. .Distress the frame also. Apply some glitter on it.







At the back of the card panel, around the circle, put foam tape as shown. .
Turn back on the right side. Add a square piece of glitter paper to cover the back,

Add sequins inside. Cover with same sized acrylic circle and adhere the frame on top.




Cut out leaves and acorn from the CottageCutz Cornucopia die and colour them with distress inks.
Cut flowers from CottageCutz 3d  flower# 2 and colour them in pastel yellow. Shape between fingers and arrange with twine  and leaves. Add a sentiment at the bottom.


Here is the complete car

Happy Thanksgiving

Hello everyone,

It's Donna here another new release die cut!  If you have not had a chance to see all the new dies that were released this month, please stop over at the store a to see the beautiful die cuts. Also, I hope you have been inspired by the talented design team and all their beautiful creations.  I have created my card using the new Cornucopia die.

Here is my card:


Here is how I put my card together:

1.  Cut an A2 card - 4 1/4 x 5 1/2
2.  The first layer is 4 x 5 1/4
3.  The Third layer is 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 and the orange layer is 2 1/4 x 3 1/4
4.  Cut the cross-stitched circle out and leave the ring around the circle cutout and use a light distress ink.  
5.  I cut all my pieces (see the first diagram).  I cut all the pieces and matched all the small elements.
6.  I distress all my edges (see the second diagram) and started putting all the pieces together and added them to the cornucopia.
