Sweet Treats

Hi!

This is Anja. Today I have another scene for you. This is the type of cards I like to make the most. I used colored paper this time. This bunnies are so cute and you can give them different props. I used sweet treats this time.

For this card I used:
- Cottage Cutz dies (Easter Bunny & Chicks, Spring Meadow, Pastry Goodies, Retro Alphabet),
- Distress Inks (Vintage Photo, Stormy Sky, Barn Door, Peeled Paint) and Oxides (Broken China),
- white card base (21 x 10 cm),
- brown card stock for die cuts and background (20,7 x 9,7 cm),
- green and white card stock for die cuts,
- patterned paper for background (20,4 x 9,4 cm),
- black pen,
- white pen,
- Wink of Stella glitter pen,
- white pigment ink,
- clouds stencil,
- paper glue.

First I die cut and colored the pie and the muffin. I used brown and white card stock.

Then I made the bunnies. I also used brown card stock. I made the eyes with black and white pen.

Then I cut the letters. I really like this new retro die. I colored the edges with Distress ink.

I cut the grass next. I used green card stock and Peeled paint for the edges.

Then I made the background. I used brown card stock and colored the edges.

I also used patterned paper and decorated it with clouds. I used a stencil and white pigment ink.

I glued patterned paper over the brown background and then added bunnies, grass and pastry. I used Wink of Stella glitter pen to add some interest.

And this is my finished card.

I wish you all a nice Sunday. I'm gonna craft a bit and watch some sports while doing it.

See you again next week.

Little Birdie!

Good Morning Scrapping Cottage Friends!

I am using one of our new release dies from the Mother's Day collection.  I hope you take the opportunity to stop by our store.  The new dies can be used for all kinds of occasions!

Design Steps:

1.  Use an A2 white card base.  Cut a piece of white card stock just slightly smaller then the base and run it through a dotted embossing folder.  Glue to the front of the card

2.  Cut a piece of yellow card stock 3 3/4 x 5 and glue to the front of the card.  Cut a 3 1/2 x 4 3/4 piece of chevron DP and glue to the yellow card stock

3.  Use the Oval Doily Frame die and cut out a white oval and a cloud DP oval.  Use the inside of the cloud piece to place inside of the white oval border

3.  Use the Stitched Birdhouse dies and cut all the pieces of the die in white.  Also use the Spring Meadow die and cut out the grass in white.  Use your markers and color all of the pieces.

4.  Assemble the birdhouse on the oval cloud paper and then glue to the front of the card inside of the white oval frame.  Add your sentiment and your card is complete

Foxy Mama Card

Happy Friday Cottage Cutz fans.  It's Jeanne posting today with a card created with dies from the new Mother's Day release.  These beautiful dies are on sale for 25% off for a limited time at the online store.

For my card I used the adorable Mama Fox and Baby, the Love You Mom Phrase and the grass from Spring Meadow dies.

I cut a white side fold A2 card base and a panel of Wisteria Wonder card stock the same size as the front - 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 inches.  I personally like cards that have a white base since I find it easier to write inside and I don't have to add a panel to the inside.  However, you could make this card using just the Wisteria Wonder as the base.

Next I cut the foxes from Very Vanilla and Cajun Craze.  I used a Multi-Liner pen to color the eyes and Copic markers to color the noses and inside ear pieces.

I used a sponge dauber with black ink to color the legs since I did not want them solid black. I assembled the pieces.

I cut a panel 5 3/8 x 4 1/8 from white cardstock and using a sponge dauber, I stenciled hearts in Soft Sky.  The grass is cut from Pear Pizzazz using the Spring Meadow die and the sentiment in Wisteria Wonder using the Love You Mom Phrase.

Finally, I assembled everything.  This card makes a precious CAS Mothers Day card!
