Happy day

Hi, Janja here!

For today's card, I have chosen the bear Ben. It is from the new CottageCutz release - Chloe and Ben's  Adventures.
You will surely love these cute bears.

Supplies:
- CottageCutz stamp & die sets: Ben with Puppy, Garden Gnomes 2, Fancy Pocket Plus (button), Rounded Rectangle Set, Stitched Rounded Rectangle Set
- white card base: A2 - 4.25" x 5.5" (10,8 x 14 cm) 
- patterned paper: 4 x 5" (10,2 x 13,2 cm)
- patterned paper: 2.1 x 5" (5,3 x 13,2 cm)
- watercolor paper
- white and colored cardstock
- Distress ink: Antique Linen, Faded Jeans, Tea Dye, Vintage Photo, Mowed Lawn, Twisted Citron, Festive Berries

Stamp the bear on a watercolor paper, color it and cut it out with the die.
On strip from white cardstock stamp Happy day with coffee Archival ink. You will find it in stamp & die set - Garden Gnomes 2.

Trim patterned papers, glue them with double-sided adhesive tape and attach to the card base.
Cut out two rounded rectangles with dies (the 5th and largest die in a row from the middle of the set) from white cardstock and patterned paper.

Attach the bear with puppy, with self-adhesive foam pads on the background. Also, add a white strip with red heart.

I would like to show you another two cards with Bumblebee Chloe and Bumblebee Ben. I created them for friends with Slovenian sentiment - plenty of happiness.

Thank you for coming over. Have a nice day.

Thank You

Hello everyone,

It's Donna here and I am sharing with you one of the new release CottageCutz for April.  How do you like all the new "Flourish N Flowers" released this month.  You can see the whole release here. The design team have shared some awesome projects.  I'm sharing another clean and simple card.

Closer look at the card.

Here is how I put my card together:

I used the Stick It by Ken Oliver to put on the back of my paper that I am going to die cut.  This paper is great to use with intricate dies so that you will have adhesive on the back of your die.  I like using this, because when I use glue it can be messy.  I cut the pieces to the size I want and take the film off of one side of the adhesive.  I then die cut my die and then it is already to adhere to my card.

I sponged the ink onto my cut pieces to make my background.

Here are my pieces already for me to die cut my CottageCutz dies. I also used some gold shimmer spritz onto the sponged background and the card base to give it some dimension.  After I cut my dies, I adhered them to the Stitched Rounded Rectange die piece and adhered this to my card base and added some sequins.

I told you it was clean and simple.  Don't forget to join the CottageCutz challenge...click here for all the details.  Please come back and see us again soon!
