Birdcage

Hi everyone Cindy here with a SWEET CottageCutz Design. Once again I have used I have used the BEAUTIFUL CottageCutz Birdcage w/ Two Birds. I just love this die and love all the different looks I get by adding other dies. Today I added Plumeria & Leaves, I cut them out with pattern paper and curled the ends under with my stylist, then added a pearl in the middle.

Glittered Bird Cage

 

Happy Monday it's Carol here with a project to share.   It's a pleasure to show you this creations today. These dies are just so much fun to create with.  The birdcage die has so much wonderful detail from an open door to two little birds.   It's so sweet and I just had to glitter it up for this card!

 The flowers are also another Cottage Cutz Die called Button Flower Mini.  I just love them.  I had fun creating some dimension in these flowers by using the McGill Paper Blossoms Kit.  Just die cut the flower, turn it upside down and fun the tool over the petals, turn back to the front and use the tool in a circular motion in the middle and layer twice.  I accented the centers with some pearls.

 Spellbinders Square Fleur De Lis die along with Spellbinders Labels One created the frame.  Martha Stewart Loopy Punch Around the page, Fleur De Lis Accents, and the Rosebud Cuttlebug folder complete the additional embellishments.

 This easel card also includes Fancy Tags Two and the Sentiment was from the dollar bin at Michaels.

  For leaves I used the Greenery Die.  The leaves were cut on white cardstock and then glittered with some Martha Stewart Crystal Course Glitter.  For the flowers I used a coarse glitter called Diamond Dust,

 Thank you for visiting today.  I really do appreciate it.  Hope you have a great week!

Here are the Cottage Cutz dies that were used in this project:

Birdcage Card

You can never have enough thank-you cards, so I thought that this lovely Birdcage die from CottageCutz would make a very elegant and feminine card for a friend of mine. I fussy cut the papers from the ScrapCake and nestled an Eyelet Edger diecut behind the flower. The ticket is from the Ticket Booth set and the sentiment was a rub-on from Kaisercraft. Finally, one of the Vintage Keys seemed like a sweet way to finish this card off.

Yummy tweets!

I've been busy making Christmas goodies, decorating and getting the tree up this week. So it seemed only fitting that this week's project is a layout of my daughter, Cyndi, making goodies last Christmas. I love using non-traditional themes and colors for Christmas pages so having dies that coordinate with the bird and cage on these Christmas papers is pretty cool, dontcha think!

I cut the birdcage from metallic paper...

...and colored the "bluebird" to match the brown and red birds on the paper.

Are you ready for Christmas? You have just two weeks and two days left to finish, believe it or not!!! But hey, no pressure. ;) Have a productive weekend!
