Welcome Baby!

Good Morning Dear Scrapping Cottage Friends!

I am happy to show you another one of the new baby dies that was just released.  I have had two great nephews born in the last 6 months and they came down to visit from Ohio.  They were both just so adorable.  So needless to say I am in the baby mood!  Today I am showing you a card using Sweet Baby Lamb.

Here are my design steps for this sweet baby card!

1.  Use an A2 white card base cut a piece of cloud designer paper using the second largest Pierced Rectangle die then glue to the center of the card front

2.  Cut a white fence using the Victorian Fence die, cut green grass using the Spring Grass die and cut a pink frame using the Pierced Wide Rectangle Frame Set.  Glue the fence and the grass to the bottom of the sky.  Then add dimension tape to the frame and mount it

3.  Cut and assemble all the little critters and accessories from the Sweet Baby Lamb die set

4.  Use the second to the smallest Cross Stitch Circle dies and cut a white circle.  Stamp the sentiment and add a button with some pink and white bakers twine

Here are the Cottage Cutz Products I used to create this card!

These new baby dies are so sweet!  I hope you will make a new mom very happy by making her a card to celebrate having her new little one!

Blessings

FOREST FRIENDS ARE HERE FOR YOU

HELLO!!!!!

It's Anita here and a warm welcome to the Cottage Blog on New Year. I wish loads of happiness and good health for all of you.

New Year means new things and I start my post with my new friends from the forest. They are super cute and you will love assembling them. You can find the entire collection here

I have made a sweet forest scene where the bunny and the deer are my new friends peeping from the foliage and can you see the mushrooms. I have given a glossy look to them by applying glossy accents.
I loved assembling the whole scene and it looks so pretty.

Have a look for yourself.

I have embossed the card panel with an embossing folder and all the die cuts are coloured with distress inks.
