My card share with you today features the CottageCutz Hello Phrase die, which is a newly released word die from the CottageCutz Expressions Plus collection. There are 35 of these new word dies and they are on sale for 25% off until tonight! Here is my card:
My "Hello from the CottageCutz Lighthouse" card also features other CottageCutz dies: the CotttageCutz Lighthouse die, Stitched Wide Circle Frame Set dies, Cottage Cutz Lighthouse w/ Clouds die, and CottageCutz Seagulls in Flight Die.
These are the steps I followed to make this "Hello from the CottageCutz Lighthouse" card.
- Using the CottageCutz Lighthouse die, I cut out the lighthouse in white, red, blue, green, gray, and yellow card stock and assembled the pieces.
- I used the CottageCutz Stitched Wide Circle Frame Set dies to cut several circle frames and a circle from a 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" piece of white card stock.
- I glued the circle frames together to create dimension.
- Using the circle that was cut out from the 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" piece of card stock, I colored a sky, rock cliff, and ocean on it. I added Liquid Applique in selected area and heat set it.
- I cut out three "hello" sentiments using the CottageCutz Hello Phrase die and blue card stock. I glued them together, covered the sentiment with VersaMark Ink and Clear Embossing Powder, and heat set it.
- I cut out seagulls from the CottageCutz Lighthouse w/ Clouds die and CottageCutz Seagulls in Flight die, and added a touch of color to them. I rolled the wings with my fingers.
- I began assembling my card by cutting a 4-1/2" x 5-3/4" piece of blue card stock to which I glued the 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" piece of white card stock with the circle cut out.
- To this piece I attached both the circle frames and colored circle piece inside the cut out circle.
- Lastly, I added the lighthouse, seagulls, and hello sentiment to the above piece. Then I attached that to a 4-3/4" x 6" white card base.

Bev, Your card is amazing! The idea of using liquid applique for whitecaps is creative and your use of thicker materials to create almost a peakhole effect into the ocean scene is wonderful. Very impressive!
