I'm super excited to share this little box I created this weekend...I LOVE IT!!! It's from a tutorial I saw on Splitcoaststampers "Secret Box" . I've used My Little Shoebox papers from the Audrey Collection and the really cool part is the matching dies from Scrapping Cottage. Honestly it's just so much fun to create. Now let me show you everything this little box has going on.

Sew What?

Hey Scrapping Cottage fans! Angelica here with a sweet and simple card using the My Little Shoebox designs by CottageCutz.



The thing I LOVE about co-branding is that you can always find coordinating everything.
For someone just starting out in this hobby, that's important to know, because you'll know that no matter what, you'll always have something that matches. 
Cottage Cutz make it so easy to add that extra bit of "oompf" to your projects without spending a ton of time.


For this card, I used paper and some of the border strips from MLS' Sew Cute line (Spring 2011).

Design Tip: To create a bit of a shadow, I cut out an additional bodice for the dress form and simply offset it by just a bit. It's actually the same size as the front bodice! 

By layering journaling tags and die cuts you can punch from the collection, making a card like this is an absolute breeze (which is kinda the point! ;))!

I used a sentiment from Unity Stamp's kit also named "Sew Cute"! Don't they just fit together perfectly?

Thanks so much for stopping by, hope you were inspired today!
Have a fabulous week, everyone!

Friends and My Little Shoebox Dies

There are "sew" many great products on the market using sewing machines, spools and stitching. From papers to embellishments and everything in between. One of my favorites is the sweet Sewing Machine and Dress Form die from Cottage Cutz. This little 4 x 4 die is perfect for all those crafty friends occasions. The detail is amazing and super fun to embellish just how you see fit.

Hi Everyone, Erika Taylor here today to share with you a card I created using the Sewing Machine and Dress Form My Little Shoebox die. I absolutely love the little spools that come with this die and had to add a few extras around the sentiment. I topped it off with a few pearls and some Stickles to give it a little extra OOOMPH. Not that this sweet die needs it. So without further adieu...


A little distressing on the edges of this card go perfectly with the quilt like placement of the My Little Shoebox papers. What do you think? Super sweet right? If you haven't taken a look at the Dies that go with your My Little Shoebox collections, take a look. There are so many beautiful ones to choose from.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. Make sure you leave a comment and let me know what you think. All of us really appreciate your comments. Until next time
