It's Your Birthday
Hello Friends
IT'S NEW RELEASE TIME! The collection is called Flowers and More. The whole set is on sale at a bundle price of 50% off and individual dies are at 30% off. The unique thing about this release is that there are not as many pieces in each of the dies. So they go together really quick and easy!
I have a number of birthdays on the way. So I decided to make a happy little card using the new Camera die mixed with a few older dies.
Design Steps:
1. Using the following dies: Camera, Mouse w/Cupcake, Film Strips, and Slimline Filmstrip Oh Snap cut them out in the following colors of card stock as shown above: black, silver, white, pink, yellow, checked yellow DP, orange, gray, blue, and black2. Assemble the pieces I inked the little mouse around the edges. To make the picture frame I cut a rectangle 3 x 2 3/4 and then took the 4th from the largest Pierced Square and cut out the opening slight above center
3. The base is a white A2
- Pink card stock cut 4 1/8 x 5 3/8
- Mint polka dot DP 4 x 5 1/4
- Glue mint DP to the pink
5. Add a few sequins to your card and it is complete

Love Recipe
Hello Scrapping Cottage Friends
It is Pam sharing with you today!
I am making a few more Valentine cards for friends and family. As I was looking through my stash I found this cute little Love Recipe. So I thought I would incorporate it into one of my cards. I found the perfect die to go with it The Christmas Baking Mice. I love when I can use dies for a different purpose such as this one!
Designer Steps:
1. Using the Christmas Baking Mice die cut out the pieces in the following card stock colors: pink, brown, dark brown, grey, yellow, and white. Cut out the bowl and aprons in DP. Shade the pieces with a coordinating ink color and a small applicator2. Using the Pierced Square die second from the largest cut out a black square. Assemble the pieces and attach to the black square as shown above
3. Use a white 6 1/4 x 4 1/4 card base
- cut a piece of black 6 1/8 x 4 1/8
- cut a piece of red heart DP 6 x 4
5. Pop up the black square to the right side of the card and then pop up the recipe
6. Add a 3 hearts to the recipe and your card is complete

Glue the two pieces together and then cut the square for the shaker window (I did it slightly to the left of center). The shaker window is 2 1/2 by 2 1/2 so I used my Pierced Square die 3rd from the largest to cut the opening2. Place the plastic window in the hole and fill it with your shaker pieces.

Place dimension dots to the back of the snowman, bird and ground then pop him to your card front as shown below. Stamp your senitment and heat emboss with clear powder.
