Elegant Christmas Bell

 

 

Happy Thursday!

Kathy with you and today I have a Christmas card for you using the Elegant Christmas Bell, Holly Berry Mini, and The Homemade Christmas Gift Set dies from The Scrapping Cottage.




For my card I started with a red base and added a white mat embossed with a snowflake die.  The Merry Christmas sentiment is cut using The Homemade Christmas Gift Set and red cardstock.  I ran it through my XYRON Create-a-sticker machine to make it easier to adhere to the card.  The Elegant Christmas Bell was cut with red and green cardstock and gold designer paper from Glad Tidings Mat Stack.  I glued the bell to the mat and then added branches that were inked with green and shaped a little.  The bow was inked with red and shaped it a little before adding it the to bell with pop dots.

I wrapped the plaid ribbon around the mat and added a bow made with the Bow-Easy.  I used the Holly Berry Mini with red and green cardstock to add holly to the bow center after shaping them a little with my fingers and a stylus. 

To finish the card off I added a button with a floss bow.

These are the dies I used.

Santa´s Chair

Hi, Vladka here. 

Do you wondering where is Santa, when you are looking at this card? He is in his workshop of course. He doesn´t have time to relax now. But after Christmas, this will be his favorite place again. But till then, he needs to organize all gifts and deliver them to all good children and adults.

Also for this card, I used different Scrapping Cottage dies:  Santa's Chair & Boots, Holly Berry Shape and  the sign from Homemade Christmas Gift Set.

Have a great weekend.

 

Letters to Santa

Hi, Vladka here!

In our family is tradition, that we all write letters to Santa with one Christmas gift wish, which have the price limit of course :) When all letters are written, each is put into envelope and then each of us pick one letter and has to buy one present. Of course it should stay in secret who is Santa to whom, but that doesn´t work always. It is fun and Christmas shopping is less stressful and mostly is less stressful for our wallets :) So, here are two examples for this year:

To made these two letters, I used white cardstock for basic and colored them with Antique Linen Distress Ink. For motives, I used die from Homemade Chirstmas Gift Set and also the Winterland Holly. As always, I colored the die cuts also with different Distress Inks. Post can be find also on CottageCutz blog.

Have a great weekend and don´t forget to think about your wishes for this Christmas.

Christmas Cheer Gift Bag

Hello Friends! Happy Tuesday, today I have a new post

for you, this time I created a gift bag. 

Take a look:

I used CottageCutz Christmas Cheer Candles,

Cottage Cutz Tea Time Doily and for the 

sentiment Homemade Christmas Gift Set.

I used a paper bag and covered the front and back with

kraft cardstock, then on top my designer paper

and some rhinestones swirls.

These are the dies I used for this bag:

Card like wrap gift

Hi, Vladka here! 

I couldn't wait to get CottageCutz Homemade Christmas Gift Set. Set is really amazing and contains 21 dies and 7 clear stamps. I was like a child when I get it. I put out all the dies and stamps in immediately ideas were flowing through my head. First idea, when I saw all bows was, to create card like wrap gift and I created two:

On both cards I used the two biggest bows and put them one on another. On the first one the bows are red, coloured with Fired Brick and Aged Mahogany Distress Inks. I also cut out two stripes and coloured them red. I also added Christmas Tree Tag and one of the Greetings Phrase.

On the second card, bows and stripes are coloured with Peeled Paint Distress Ink and I cut out and coloured also the Glove Tag. Also here I added Greetings Phrase.

Have a great day!

Dear Santa

Happy Wednesday everyone!

Kathy with you and today I have a card using the Homemade Christmas Gift Set and Elegant Flurry Snowflake Die.  This time I'm using the deer die cut from the gift set for my main image...so cute!

Also from the set, I included one of the bows and "Dear Santa" die cuts using red cardstock and one of the setiment stamps. On the top left corner, is a little piece of the Elegant Flurry Snowflake Die from the Winter Wonderland Release cut with white cardstock...what a stunning die this is!

Here's a little close up of the deer scene for you.

To make my card, I cut the deer die with white, green, grey, kraft, and red using little pieces/scraps. The deer and wood post are made with kraft cardstock and shaded with Jumbo Java Ink. I added the hooves with black cardstock and used a black marker for the eyes and spots. The mailbox is grey cardstock shaded with black ink and a red flag. The wreath is green and red cardstock dotted with a white gel pen. The letter and snow are white cardstock shaded with Iced Blue Ink and a red stamp for the letter.

This cute little scene is popped on a blue Christmas designer paper piece that is stamped with the sentiment using black ink. I glue this piece on a white mat embossed with a snowflake folder and popped it all on a red cardbase. To finish the card, I added a bow and "Dear Santa" die cut both in red.

Here are the dies I used for this.

CottageCutz Jolly Penguin Tag

Hello everyone, Cheryl here with a CottageCutz Jolly Penguin Christmas Tree Tag, using the Tree & Stamp from the CottageCutz Homemade Christmas Gift Set Box, and then the Penguin from the "Christmas Cheer" Release found HERE!

The CottageCutz Jolly Penguin was cut using all white card stock, then colored with copics. Next I used some Flower Soft in Polar white for his Santa Cap.

The Christmas Tree tag is from the Homemade Christmas Gift set Box and  was cut out using green scrap piece of card stock, then I distressed the edges, and used the To: and From: stamp also from the Homemade Christmas Gift Set Box . I then added some twine, and a gingham bow to the top.
