CottageCutz Wedding Shower Tag

 Hello everyone and welcome to another edition of CottageCutz dies. It's Carol today with a project share.   Here in my neck of the woods, we are getting ready for a Wedding on "Pi" day!   There was a shower recently to honor the Bride and this is the tag I made for the gift I brought.  I made this with the idea that the Bride could use it as an embellishment in her Wedding Scrapbook.

 Yes, I do know what you are thinking.  I have had an influence on the Brides hobby by choice!!!  lol  This wedding is filled with lots of homemade hand crafted touches.  We have been working and still working for about a year.  This tag was made with the beautiful  Elegant Veil & Top Hat die from CottageCutz.  The Best Wishes Expression die was used on the little banner.

Hope you have enjoyed a little "Wedding Inspiration".  Be sure to check out the "Wedding Collection" of beautiful dies over at The Scrapping Cottage.  There are lots of beautiful dies to select from for all your decorating needs.  Thanks for stopping by.  Until next time.....Happy Crafting.  Here are the dies used:

Polkadot Teapot and Teacups

Hi! Vladka here!

Today I have very simple card for you. All you need for this are two dies: Teapot and Teacup, Magnolia Doily and stamps of your choice. 

Both dies cuts are cut out from white cardstock. I stamped with polka dot stamp on teapot and cups. 

So, grab your cup of tea and enjoy your day! :)

Telescope folding Valentine Card

Hello everyone, today I wanted to share a super fun card I made for Valentines day. This is a Telescope Fold Card. These are easy and fun to make.

Here is the Card Completely Closed Up!

For the Card- I just picked 3 different base sized circles. Most of them are spellbinders dies, except the top one, it is a CottageCutz "Be Mine" Die, and then I layered a pink spellbinder circle under the red layer on this one. For all the others, I layered each one how I wanted it to look before connecting them all together. The key is to decorate them before connecting them, and to make sure any of your die cut pieces are glued down good, so they don't get in the way when opening this card.

CottageCutz Dies- I just had to pull out these older Valentines CottageCutz dies, as I love making Valentines cards. So for this card I used CottageCutz "Be Mine", "Tweet Love", "Mr. Love Bug", "Sweet Flourish", "Fancy Cattails&Butterflies",Expressions "Valentines Day", all are CottageCutz Dies from The Scrapping Cottage.

Partially Opened card in the photo above

Embellishments- I kept it pretty simple for embellishing this card, as you want to have it close easy with no embellishments in the way. So I only embellished the top layer with some half backed pearls. I was sure to glue them on with glue, so they don't fall off easy. I also added some glitter to the "Mr. Love Bug" Die cut. This gives it a fun look and a little extra Bling for my card.

Supplies Used:

CottageCutz Dies

Spellbinders Dies

Half Backed Pearls

Viva Pearl Pen

American Crafts Card Stock

American Crafts True Love Paper

American Crafts Glitter

Copics for Coloring

Dusting with Distressed Inks

Brads

Hugs to all,

Mr. Snuggles "Make a Wish" Card

Hello everyone! Cheryl here today, and Hope you all are doing well, and enjoying the New Year! :)

Today I wanted to share a Birthday Card I made for the Scrapping Cottage using the darling CottageCutz dies.

For my CottageCutz Mr. Snuggles, he was cut with white card stock, and then colored with 4 different Copic's in E shades. Next I added some blush to his cheeks, and some white gel dots. For his eyes I used Viva Pearl Pen in black. His nose is popped up using a pop dot.

Design Paper- is from American Crafts and is the Pebbles Birthday Wishes paper stack. Love the designs on this dp, perfect for the CottageCutz Birthday Release. CottageCutz Party Hat is cut using the same design paper. I also used another design from this same paper stack for the cake.

Layers- on this card there are 4 layers, that includes the doily on the background layer. I used the CottageCutz Magnolia Doily for the top circle layer. This is for my main images.

Embellishments- I used some brads that I had picked up at the AC warehouse sale last year. I ended up using the Yellow and Blue ones. I also used a Viva Pearl Pen in white to do all the Pearls on the cake and hat. Next I did use glitter glue on the hat as well. Ribbon is extra that I picked up for an awesome deal at the same warehouse sale.

Bear's Surprise

Hi, all! Vladka here with you today!

I know that bears can be very dangerous animals in the nature, but on the other side they seem so cute and friendly in fairy tales. I like this motive, because I have a feeling I can snuggle in bear's hug as a little child and that will give me comfort. 

And you have to admit that this Birthday Party Bear is really cute. He jumped out of the envelope as a surprise and has a birthday gift and balloon in his hand. To get fairy looks, I colored the envelope with green Distress Ink and added a grass and little flowers. It is such fun to play with different CottageCutz dies.

I wish you all great Sunday!

CottageCutz "Snowman Winter Scene"

Hello everyone, and Happy Saturday to you all!

Today I'm sharing this Darling CottageCutz Snowman Winter Scene Card. Isn't he just too sweet?! 

For my CottageCutz snowman- I cut him out in white card stock, and then added some viva pearl pen dots, a little glitter glue, and then dusted in a blue ink around the edges. Next I framed him with a border punch, and then added some punched branches in white. Love the look it gives.

 Design paper- I kept it all the same blue with white polka dot, as it reminds me of winter and snow. Love snow in the winter, however not for several months.....LOL

Layers -There are 3 layers on this card. 1st is the background layer, and then the border layer, and lastly the image layer.I did add sewing with a pattern that looks kinda close to snowflakes, on the background layer and the border layer, cute huh?

Embellish-Lastly I added white half backed pears to each side of my card for some extra embellishing.

 I really enjoyed designing this card. I have added a list of supplies used below.
