Fun Times Ahead

Judy here today to share a fun little card I made using one of the owls from Hoot Loves You. This is the cutest set, with so many different ways to have the owls' expressions and eyes. Take a look:

I love these little owls~!

 

BEE MINE

Good morning! Judy here to share with you two of my favorite things -- bees and valentines! 

I love Valentine's Day -- almost more than any other holiday! It must come from my incredible love for chocolate :) The love for bee things is a little different -- I am very allergic to bee stings, but for some reason, just love the dies, stamps, and little bee knickknacks I find. As long as they aren't real, I am good with them!

I had originally started to make a typical yellow and black card using the Bumblebee Mini Die, but then I took a pink turn (which happens frequently since it's my favorite color) and made my card into a valentine instead.

The Scalloped Doily provided a fun background for my pink flower. The bees are buzzin' around to wish you an early Happy Valentine's Day~!

A Happy Hello

Hello! Judy here with my first post as a member of the CottageCutz team~!

Today I am sharing a valentine I made for my college sophomore daughter. I used Elephant Peeker, Picket Fence Border, and the Scalloped Doily for my dies.

 

My little elephant is a girl, so she has painted her toes pink! I hand cut the little tag, punched a hole, and added a little stamped sentiment ("a happy hello") from Stampin' Up! The ruffled ribbon and twine are from Really Reasonable Ribbon and the felt flower is by Bride's.

My daughter lives 700 miles away, so I hope this little sweet elephant brings her some sweet love and cheer in her mailbox!
