Happy Haunting

Hello Scrapping Cottage Friends

It is Pam sharing with you this fine Thursday. 

 I have a lot of fun sending out Halloween cards.  So I am getting a head start on one today.  I am using several of our older release dies featuring the Graveyard die.


Design Steps:

1.  Using the following dies Graveyard, Old Farm Fence, and Halloween Ghost cut out the following colors of card stock: white, black, gray, and brown
2.  Shade the pieces using a black ink and then assemble with a fine tip glue
3.  The card base is white A2, cut a piece of black 4 1/8 x 5 3/8, cut a piece of bat DP 4 x 5 1/4.  Glue the DP to the black
4.  Build your scene by adding a black 3/4 x 5 1/4 inch strip (which I cut slight hills on) then glued to the bottom of the card.  Next add the fence and then the graves with the mounds
5.  Glue down the ghost, crow and the black grass to the mounds.  I thought I needed a pop of color so I used the Halloween Ghost die which has a pumpkin and the Slime Cupcake which also has a pumpkin.  I cut out two pumpkins and added them as shown above.  Glue the panel to the white card base add the sentiment and your card is complete
6.  I had some left over pieces so I decided to decorate the inside of the card for an extra surprise!


We have more inspiration on our YouTube Channel check it out HERE

Thanks so much for stopping by!  And I will see you next Thursday.

Blessings and Take Care

Herd the News!

Hello!  This is Sukie and today I'm sharing a card featuring dies from the new Country Farm release.  These die sets are absolutely adorable and perfect for so many occasions! This card will be perfect to have on hand for a celebratory occasion!

I used the following die sets on my card:  Stacked Farm Animals, Curly Sheep & Lamb, Country Farm Stable and the Old Farm Fence.  I used colored card stock for all of my die cuts and inked them on the edges for some dimension.
The rustic papers with a bit of country charm are from my stash and were perfect for my card.
I created my card base by layering the 2 panels of paper with the wood themed panel on top.
The grass was affixed to the bottom portion of my card with the farm fence tucked in behind.
Next, the adorable cow was placed on top of the grass as the focal point of my card.
I proceeded to build the stack of farm animals by adhering one on top of another.  The little lamb was nestled next to the cow.
A fun sentiment was stamped on a hand cut flag and adhered in the upper corner of my card.
Here are the die sets used on my card, available in the store:

Spooky Witch House

Good Morning Scrapping Cottage Friends,

It is Pam creating with you today.

I am making one last Halloween card today using the Spooky Witch House.  It is an amazingly detailed die and the card turned out spooktackular!  The Halloween dies are 25% in our online store today.  We also have 2 new releases of Christmas dies.  They are adorable. So you can get a jump start on your Christmas cards.

Design Steps:

1.  Cut all of the pieces out using the Spooky Witch House and gray, black, green, purple, brown, yellow, dark yellow and orange card stock
2.  Shade the pieces using a variety of ink colors and a small applicator.  Assemble the pieces using a fine tip glue
2.  For the background cut a piece of white card stock 4 1/2 x 3 1/2.  Mask off a little moon using a 3/4 punch.  Use a cloud stencil and some gray and purple ink to create the sky
3.  Use an A2 black card base and cut a piece of green slightly smaller then the base.  Then cut a piece of purple DP 4 x 5 1/4. 
4.   Glue the green to the black card base and then add the purple DP.  Next die cut green grass using the Spring Grass die.  Also cut a brown fence using the Old Farm Fence die.  On the stenciled cloud panel glue down the fence and the grass.  Next pop up the Witch House on top of the fence and grass
5.  Using black card stock and the largest Stitched Wide Rectangle Frame  die cut ou the frame.  Place strips of dimension tape on the back of the frame and pop onto the top of the cloud panel

6.  Glue the little tombstone flat next ot the house on the left side. Next on the same side pop the tree up and glue to the black frame.  On the right side of the house pop up the caldron and also glue to the frame.  Add the ghosts and the bats glued flat to the back cloud panel and your card is complete

You're the Only One in the Sea for Me!

Hello!  This is Sukie and today I have a sweet card to share.  I used one of the new dies from the amazing Pirates and Sea Creatures die release.
I wanted a vintage theme for my card so I used a muted color palette for my die cuts. I also distressed the edges of the die cuts with ink.
I selected some papers from my stash to coordinate with the vintage theme.  You can never go wrong with stripes on a card.  The smaller card panel was shaded with ink to mimic water and a soft sky.
Once I created my card base, I added the Lighthouse as the focal point of my card.  The fence was trimmed to fit each side of my card and accented with a piece of rope from the Rope Corners die set, the anchor is from the same die set.
The moon and stars were adhered on each side of the lighthouse finishing off the whimsical scene.
I found the perfect sentiment in my stash and stamped it on a hand cut flag.  It was mounted above the scene on my card.
Here are the dies used on my card, available in the store:

Autumn On The Farm

Hi, Janja is here with you.
A little more, and autumn will come. This is the richest time of the year, enchanting us with beautiful autumn colors, juicy fruits and vegetables.
I tried to capture some of this on a card I share with you today.


CottageCutz dies - Lucky Leprechaun, Hats, Glasses & Mustaches, Old Farm Fence, Cornucopia, Ivy, Carrot Patch Bunny
- white card base: 5.3 x 5.3" (13,5 x 13,5 cm), folded
- patterned paper: 5 x 5" (12,7 x 13,7 cm)
- colored cardstock
- corrugated kraft cardstock
- colored ink pads
- watercolor brush
- glue, double-sided adhesive tape, self-adhesive foam pads
Cut out the central motif with Lucky Leprechaun die and add a mustache.


Now cut out the various autumn crops.


Cut ivy from watercolor paper. I colored ivy with Distress Inks, brush and water.


Prepare a card base and trim a patterned paper. From corrugated kraft cardstock cut a frame and a fence. The outer edge of the frame is the same size as the card base.



First, attach a pattern paper and frame to the front of the card. Then paste the central motif, a fence and ivy. Finally, fill the bottom of the card with all the vegetables and fruits.





Have a nice day.
Janja
