Birthday Shaker Card

 Hello Friends

BIG REMINDER CHRISTMAS SALE ENDS Friday, Jan 2, 2026 (9 PM Pacific Time)

I would like to wish you a very Happy New Year! May you be blessed with good health and happiness! 

For the New Year I need to replenish my birthday cards so I thought I would make a cute little shaker card! I used Dapper Dachshund and Sentiment, Happy Birthday to create my card for today.

Designer Steps:

1.  Using the Happy Birthday die cut out some Stardust Foil card stock.  Use the Dapper Dachshund and cut out the following colors of card stock: pink, white, light brown, dark brown and black. Assemble the pup with a fine tip glue
2.  Use an A2 white card base, cut a piece of purple flowered DP 4 1/8 x 5 3/8,  using the Large Rectangle Frame die cut out 2 purple frames and glue them together
3.  Cut a piece of acetate to fit behind the frame.  Glue the acetate to the back of the purple frame and then add your dimension tape all around the perimeter
4.  Glue the purple DP to the white card base.  Place a small pile of sequins and confetti in the middle of the purple DP.  Adhere the acetate frame onto the card front at shown above
5.  Glue Happy Birthday to the acetate and then add the dog to the left bottom corner and the bow to the right top corner (as shown below).  Your card is complete

Hello Friends

From all of us at CottageCutz we would like to wish you a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

This is my last Christmas card for the year 2025!  I don't know where this year has gone but I thank God for all of my blessings! I am using Polar Friends and Holiday Hound Dog (trees) on this fun little card.

Design Steps:

1.  Use the Polar Friends die and cut out the following colors of cardstock:  red, green, yellow, black and white
2.  Assemble the pieces with a fine tip glue.  I like the Art Glitter Glue
3.  Use an A2 white card base.  Cut a rectangle scallop piece 5 1/4 x 4 and then cut another retangle scallop piece 4 1/2 x 3 1/2 run the smaller rectangle through a snow embossing folder.  In white cut out the snow banks using the Hills Slimline. Cut out the trees in white using the Holiday Hound Dog

4.  Glue the larger scalloped retangle flat to the white card base.  Pop up the snow embossed retangle and add the first snowy hill
5.  Tuck the trees into the snowy hill in the background.  Add the polar bear and then the second snowy hill. (Make sure to stamp the sentiment onto the front snowy hill before you glue it down.) I added some sparkle to the hill tops with Stickles.  Your card is complete

Santa Peeker

Hello Friends,

Just finishing up the last few Christmas cards! I have added lots of sparkle to this one.  I love using glitter paper around the holidays.  Today's featured dies are Santa Peeker and Merry Christmas Santa.

Background Photo by Freepiks

Design Steps:

1.  Use the Santa Peeker die and cut the following card stock: tan, white, red glitter, and green
2.  Assemble the pieces using a fine tip and quick drying glue.  Use a fine tip black marker to color in the eyes
3.  Use an A2 white card base, 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 piece of red glitter card stock, 3 x 4 inches piece of dotted green DP, and a piece of snowflake DP measuring 2 1/4 x 4 inches.  Glue the red glitter card stock to the white card base.  Glue the green dotted DP to the top of the red glitter card stock and the snowflake DP to the bottom as shown.  (I had some left over pieces of ephemera for the bow and twisted red and green rope)
4.  Using the Merry Christmas Santa die cut out the sentiment in red glitter card stock.  Glue the sentiment to the bottom half as shown below.  I added some shaker pieces that are snowflakes to complete the card
