Hope Your Day is Ducky

Happy Friday!  It's Jeanne today with a fun card featuring another adorable duck from the new spring release.
To begin I cut the duck and tub from yellow, orange and galvanized metal card stock along with vellum for the bubbles.
I assembled all the pieces except for the splashes using Art Glitter Glue.  I find that I can glue vellum using this and not have it show through! I used a multi-liner pen to color the eyes.
Next I cut a panel 4.25 x5.5 inches from yellow gingham, and strips of card stock 1.5 x 4.25 inches and 1.75 x 4.25 inches.  I used the second largest die from the stitched scalloped circles to cut a white medallion.
I stamped my sentiment on the smallest strip and glued the three pieces together.  One thing I love about checked and striped paper is that it makes it very easy to place items on straight!
I adhered the duck and the splashes to the medallion using the Art Glitter Glue.
To finish the card, I wrapped some baker's twine around the panel just above the sentiment then used foam dots to add the medallion.  I placed it at an angle as I thought this emphasized the playfulness of the duck in the tub.
I glued the panel to a white A2 card base.  I love this image and sentiment as it can use this card for a birthday or a thinking of you card - it's very versatile!

Be sure to stop by the online store where the new dies are on sale for a very limited time!

Make a Splash

Hello!  This is Sukie and today I'm sharing this adorable card for my design team post. I have another sweet die set to showcase on this card from the new Spring die release.
The Splish Splash Duckling was shaded with my Oxide Inks and tucked inside the oversized tub.  I also cut out a sign from the Route 66 Road Signs die set for the sentiment.  The circle is from the Nested Stitched Scallop Circle Set.
I selected a cheery background for featuring the duck at the focal point of my card.  I trimmed down the road sign, stamped it with a fun sentiment and layered the 2 pieces.
To build my card, I placed the scallop circle die cut in the center of my card.  The sweet duck was centered inside the circle.
Next, the water splashes and bubbles were clustered around the duck for a whimsical look on my card.
The layered sentiment sign was adhered on the bottom of the card for a final finishing touch.
Here are the die sets used on my card, available in the store:

DT Samples - Spring Day 6

Hello Scrapping Cottage friends! Happy Saturday to you! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit today. We are sampling DT cards using dies from the new Spring dies release. 

They are in the online store and 25% off for a limited time. There are 27 new dies in the release and each one is cuter than the next. They will be perfect for your Easter and Spring card making.

We thought you might like to have some new and creative ideas for your Easter or Spring cards using these new dies. The cards today are both in a whimsical style and all about the little ducklings. So let's get started with some details on the cards for today. 

Card 1: The first sample today is one that I (Mary Marsh) created using the new Duckling with Kite die. It's a spring themed card that I am going to be using for a friend's birthday that happens to be the first day of Spring. But it could also be used for a welcome baby card or a thinking of you. There are lots of possibilities for this die so let your imagination go on this one.

I used various colors of cardstock for the images. Added an embossed panel for texture and interest. I completed the card by scattering a few enamel dots.


Card 2:  Our next sample for today is from Janja Albreht. She used the Splish Splash Duckling die to create this super cute card.  This would be another sweet card to welcome a new baby, a Mother's Day card and with the sentiment she used this could be a great retirement card.   
 
Patterned Paper helped to create the sky and grass. She spritzed some light blue glimmer mist on the background.

 
Well, that's our samples for today. I hope the team has given you some fresh ideas on ways to use these new Spring dies this past week. If you missed any of the group posts, click here, here, here, here, and here.  And, if you are thinking of getting any of these new dies, they are on sale for a limited time in the online store.

Splish Splash Hello


Hi!

It's Anja here. My package finally arrived and this cute duckling die was the first to get on a card.


For this card I used:
- Cottage Cutz dies (Splish Splash Duckling, Expression Hello, Pierced Square Set),
- Distress Inks,
- white card base 15x15 cm,
- white card stock for die cuts,
- violet card stock for background (13,2x13,2 cm, 9,2x9,2 cm),
- patterned paper for background (13x13 cm),
- silver pigment ink,
- black pen,
- white pen,
- paper glue.

First I cut and colored the duck. I used black and white pen for the eyes.


Then I cut and colored the sentiment.


Then I cut all the pieces for the background.


 And assembled the card together.



This is all from me for today. I wish you all a sunny Sunday.

See you again next week.

Anja Z.
