Sweet Home With Flowers


Hello dear friends,

It's Saturday today I am Anita here and I have a new card for you made with the new release HOME SWEET HOME collection. Such minute detailed dies are included in this series that I am amazed. You can build your entire house with this release.
However, as my forte is flower making, I decided to make a delicate blue floral card adorned with pretty flowers and a sweet home. So here is my card along with the close up pictures to show you the details of the cards and how the dies have been used.





 The card measures 7.5 inches by 5.5 inches.
I have used an embossed dotted paper in blues and have added some zig zag stitching to it, to coordinate with Stitched rectangle die.
This card is all about layering.
The flowers have been created using the CottageCutz 3D flower # 5 and many leaves. The leaves have been coloured with Distress ink Peeled Paint.

Do leave your comments and happy crafting !!!

Red bicycle

Hi, Janja here.

Today I share with you a simple card on which I placed the red bicycle in grass.
Cycling is a great recreation for the whole family.
In Slovenia, cycling is very popular. We have a beautiful bike path for a road and mountain biking.


For the card we need: 
  • white card base: 4 1/4 x 5 1/2", folded
  • watercolor paper: 4 x 5.2"
  • red glitter paper
  • white and color cardstock
  • Distress inks: Broken China, Weathered Wood, Vintage Photo
We paint watercolor paper gently with Distress inks.


Cut out the bicycles from cardstocks in three different colors.


From each of the cutouts, we use a part and compose our bicycle. 


The upper part of the card is filled with ladybugs and inscription. Use a dies from the set of pillow box plus.


Stamp inscription and add green twigs, which we cut with the die garden stems.


Compose the card.
Our bicycle is ready to drive it around. 


And don't forget on our CottageCutz challenge #3 - pocket

Enjoy and have fun.

Janja
