Birthday Badges

Happy Tuesday Cottagecutz fans. I hope you had a wonderful new year. I can’t believe how quickly Christmas went. What I do know is that come June I’ll be working on Christmas for next year.

Anyway it’s Wendy bringing you the blog today and I thought I’d use the Black Friday release to make some birthday badges. I think it’s really cute for youngsters to have a name badge at a birthday party. So this is how I made them

Firstly I cut out 3 of the ‘Nested Stiyched Scalloped Circles’ in a bronze brown colour. I have also cut out 3 of the ‘Stitched Rounded Rectangles’ as we’ll need these shortly

I use 38m broach bars to make my badges and secure wit a hot gun. I then use the small rectangle as cut above to extra secure the broach bar in place

Next I printed some names on this beautiful cream pearlescent card and cut out with the ‘Stitched Circle Set’

I wanted to add a little background to the badges so I cut out some green circles in the same size

Next I used the ‘Grass Slimelime’ to cut some hills from the circles

I then attached the grass to the bottom of the badges and they are a perfect fit

Next I added the names to the brown badges 

To finish off, I used some of the designs from the ‘Black Friday’ release, which I will list below and you have your badges

I really hope you like the badges as much as I did making them. 

Have a wonderful week and I will see you on Friday with another project

Campin Out - Few Days Left for Black Friday Sale

Hello Friends

There are only a few days left to take advantage of the Black Friday sale.  And I don't want you to miss out on all the saving. Check it out today!

Today, I am using the Campin Out Mountains & Trees, Campin Out Fox and Campin Out Campfire & Sign.  This fun card is perfect for a friend or hubby that you love spending time with!  I am thinking it could even be a Valentine!

Design Steps:

1.  Use an A2 blue card base, cut a piece of green and browncard stock with the Slimline Hills die, cut a piece of with the Clouds Slimline and finally cut a dark green, gray and white with the Campin Out Mountains and Trees die

2.  Glue the brown to the bottom of the blue card base leaving the top the brown without glue.  Tuck the green hills under the green leaving the top of the green without glue.  Next tuck in the white cloud and then tuck in the mountains under the green hills. Then go back and add glue to the top of the green and brown card stock hills.  Add the trees, sun and snow to the card as shown above 

3.  Using the Campin Out Fox and the Campin Out Campfire & Sign cut out the fox in rust, white, dark brown, tan, and black.  Cut out the fire in yellow, red, orange and dark brown.  Assemble and then glue flat to the card as shown below

December Daily Mini Album: Daily Page

Happy Terrific Tuesday Scrapping Cottage friends! Melinda here with another project share. 

Today I am sharing another page for my December Mini Album- December Daily project. Today's page is my daily page spread. It features dies from the upcoming Black Friday Release! You will want to grab this adorable set! n

Here is a look at my project.

The finished size is 7 x 7.

For the base of the project, I started with a piece of 7x7 medium blue cardstock. I then cut a dark blue cardstock mat at 6.75 x 6.75. I then cut a piece of patterned paper from my stash and then mounted the weekly spread onto the patterned paper mat. 

I went to work cutting and assembling the various die animals. They are all so very cute! I added marker, chalks and inks to give them details.  

Here's a closer look at the cute Campin Out Capfire & Sign, The Campin Out Mountains & Trees, and the Campin Out Moose & Reindeer die sets. 

In this closer look you can see the sweet little Campin Out Fox, the fire from the Campin Out Campfire & Sign, the sweet little mouse from the Campin Out Hedgehog & Mouse die as well as the adorable Moose from the Campin Out Moose & Reindeer die. In the background you can see I used the Campin Out Mountains & Trees I added a touch of Stickles Glitter Glue to the mountains.

Here is one last look at my completed page spread. I think it came out super cute. I am excited to start using these pages!

Campin out Moose

Happy Sunday Cottagecutz fans. It’s Wendy bringing you the blog today and I am super excited to be showcasing dies from the new Black Friday release. These dies are so cute and versatile and I know that I’m going to be able to use them all year long. There are 14 dies in the set and each one is fabulous for creating your camping scenes and so much more

So my first design today showcases quite a few of the dies, ‘Camping Out Moose and Reindeer’, ‘Campin Out Trees’, ‘Camping Out Mountains & Trees’, and ‘Campin Out Fox’

So I started with a white folded card measuring 5” x 4” when folded. Onto this in navy blue I added the largest of the ‘Nested Scalloped Stitched Rectangles’ and the 2nd largest ‘Stitched Rectangle’ on top for some height. I also cut the rectangle in white which i will explain about later

To create the background I have used the ‘Campin Out Mountains & Trees’ in grey and white card. The white card is for the mountain tops and I used a little blue chalk to give them a frosty feel. 

Next I took the stitched rectangle in white card as and shaped it with the ‘Hills Slimline’ to give a snowy affect and attached with 1mm foam pads

For the next part of the card I cut out all 3 sizes of the ‘Campin Out Trees’ and assembled. I used some dark green chalk to make them look realistic and attached to the card with 3D foam pads.

Next I cut out the moose, sausages on a stick and lantern from the ‘Campin Out Moose & Reindeer’ die and assembled. Before sticking them to the card I used the log from the ‘Campin Out Fox’ so that it looks like Mr Moose is sitting on the log. Both the moose, the log and the lantern were attached to the card with 3D foam pads. To finish I used a white gel pen to give the effect of either stars or snow

So we are now done with the first card or

I really hope you like this release. I was blown away with the dies and the team will be sharing their designs in the coming weeks

I wish you the very best for the rest of the weekend and keep crafting!

Wendy
