Happy 2020!

Hi!

It's Anja here for my last post in 2019. Today I have no coloring project for you. I made little tags you could use for decoration for your New Year's dinner.

For this project I used:
- Cottage Cutz dies (Ugly But Cute Sweater, Sweetheart Doilies, Circle Set, Sugar & Cream Alphabet, Expressions Happy),
- craft, white and dark red card stock,
- adhesive foam pads,
- paper glue.

First I cut two sweaters and some decorative elements, one set from white and the other from craft cardstock. I adhered all the pieces with glue.

Next I cut two sets of larger circles, two sets of smaller circles and two doilies.

Then I cut the sentiment and numbers from dark red cardstock.

I adhered the circles together. I used adhesive foam pads to add the sweaters.

And my project was done.

This is all from me for this year. You can also check the online store for some After Christmas sales. 

I wish you all pleasant New Year's celebrations and all the best in 2020.

Have a nice day and see you again in a week.

Anja Z.

Bouquet of Flowers

Hi!

This is Anja. I hope you're doing well. I was on a short vacation last week and came back home rested and in good mood. And now I'm back to crafting again. Yesterday was a National Scrapbook Day and you can find great discounts in the store. Don't forget to check it out. And also the new Mother's Day release is in the store.

I have a Mother's day card for you today. I used Botanical Garden dies to make a spring bouquet for mom.

For this card I used:
- Cottage Cutz dies (Botanical Garden 1, Botanical Garden 2, Watering Can, Tulips, Sugar and Cream Alphabet, Mug with Heart),
- Distress Inks (Tumbled Glass, Peacock Feathers, Squeezed Lemonade, Black Soot, Wild Honey, Mustard Seed, Shabby Shutters, Mowed Lawn, Seedless Preserves, Dusty Concord, Peeled Paint, Bundled Sage, Spun Sugar, Worn Lipstick),
- craft card base (15x15 cm),
- white card stock for die cuts,
- white water color paper for background (14x14 cm),
- lilac card stock for background (14,4x14,4 cm),
- gold pigment ink,
- Glossy Accents,
- heat gun,
- brush,
- water spritzer,
- paper glue.

First I die cut the flowers and colored it with Distress Inks.

I used gold pigment ink for letters and heart.

Then I made the background. I used craft card base and lilac square.

 

Then I cut a square from water color paper and colored t with the smooching technique. I put some Distress Ink on my glass surface, spritzed it with water and then tapped the paper over it. I heat it with the heat gun. Then I used gold pigment ink, mixed with water and spritzed it over the paper.

 

I also used gold ink for the edges.

 

When I had everything cut and colored I arranged the pieces into a card.

Have a nice Sunday.
Anja Z.
