CottageCutz Halloween

Hello friends!  Today's card features 3 dies from the CottageCutz Halloween Release.  I used the tree from The Witches Clothesline, the CottageCutz Spiderweb Border die, and the CottageCutz Cat on Pumpkin die.  I used some textured cardstock to cut the pumpkin and the leaves from.  The cat was cut from white cardstock along with his hat, then colored with Copics.  The tree and the spider web were cut from black cardstock.  I assembled the card, and tied some gingham ribbon to finish it off.

I hope you enjoyed this scenic card.  Have a great day everyone and thanks for stopping by!

CottageCutz :: Happy Halloween Puppy

Good morning, CottageCutz fans!  I hope this beautiful Sunday is treating you well.  It's Lorie from The ThINKin' Spot here today with my first CottageCutz Halloween card with the newest Halloween dies!  Woohoo!  This is my favorite time of year for both being outside, AND creating.  I guess it must be the weather, because it's absolutely gorgeous, as are all of the Fall colors we'll soon be enjoying!

I received some wonderful CottageCutz dies in the mail this week from the Halloween Release at The Scrapping Cottage.   Here's my card for today...
Isn't this little costumed puppy the sweetest little Halloween pup ever?
I used Basic Grey Paper and combined it with some glittery orange card stock, along with some of my favorite embellishments and ribbon.


Here's a closer look at this cutie.  I cut him out with white card stock and colored him in with Copic markers.  I didn't get a photo of my markers this time, but for the puppy, I used C1, C3, and C5,  and for the spots and hat, I used C1-C9.  The hatband is done with V01,V04, V06, and V09.  The moon and star were both colored with Y21 and shaded with Y23.  After I had this all colored, I added some sponging to the edges with Tim Holtz distress ink in vinatge photo. 

Now, a look at the CottageCutz dies I used with direct links to find them in the store.
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
 
 
 Have a wonderful day, and make it even more wonderful by doing something crafty!

Just Married!

Hello everyone , Cheryl here with a Wedding Card using the Beautiful CottageCutz Dies from The Scrapping Cottage.

On my card I decided to use the super sweet CottageCutz Just Married Car (4x6) and then cut the car in a glitz white, and the bumper and tail light surroundings in a light grey design paper. My accent color for this card is pink, so I made everything else on the car pink.

Next I used the CottageCutz Wedding Border and doubled it up with Pink and Black to run across the right corner of my card

I used the CottageCutz Baby Frame, and the CottageCutz Magnolia Doily to layer for behind my car.

CottageCutz Dies Used:

Others Used:
DCWV/Forever and Always Stack
Really Reasonable Ribbon/Black satin
Helmar/Premium Craft Glue, Acid Free Glue, Zapdots, 450
Wedding Bells button
Sewing
Copics






Thank you for looking and hope you have a super wonderful day!!!
Hugs to all,
Cheryl

Wedding Horse and Carriage

Hello CottageCutz lovers!!!  Today it's Carol here with a little something from the Wedding Collection.  Isn't this horse and carriage yummy.  I see so many uses for this super terrific die-it's not just for Weddings.  I know you have a sweet little girl in your life that would love this on a Birthday card.  It's a princess carriage for sure.
Just look at this Wedding border.  The images are amazing in it.  It coordinates perfectly with the beautiful Celebration Cake-I think it is just so pretty.  For my card I die cut the two dies and used some glitter glue ant white glitter  on them to make them sparkle.  The back ground is just a piece of recycled corrugated  card board distressed with some Picket Fence Crackle Paint and sprinkled with more glitter.  I used some tulle for the bow and a few pearls.  Here are the dies I used:


Hope you are having a great weekend.  Thanks for taking a look at my creation.  We'll be back again soon with more exciting creations with the CottageCutz dies!

CottageCutz Just Married Car

Hello friends!  Today's card features the CottageCutz Just Married Car.  I used glossy cardstock for the car thinking it would look like a brand new shiny car.  Well I finished assembling the car and was ready to make the card when I spilled water on my desk and also some droplets got on the die cut.  Rather than start over, I covered the area damaged by water with glitter then used some fun Valentine paper to complete the card.  When you have a mishap, what creative things do you try to fix your blunders?  I think the glitter worked for my "car accident".

Hope you have a wonderful day!
Hugs and smiles,
Janice

CottageCutz Stack 'O Frogs

Good morning!  Well, it's just not every day that you'll see a stack of frogs, so please count this as YOUR lucky day!  :-)  It's Lorie from The ThINKin' Spot here today to share with you a fun and cute Halloween card that I created with my CottageCutz dies. 
 Fall and Halloween crafting is my favorite, and these sweet dies make it so much fun!  The frogs were cut with Copic X-press It Blending Card and colored with the Copic markers shown below.  This Chillingsworth Manor paper worked so well, because I think that little frog actually looks like he's conducting, which was indeed a perfect fit with the music note background.  I gave these froggies some extremely rosy cheeks by simply using chalk and a stiff bristle paint brush. 


Here's a look at the die I used for this card with a link to find it fast in The Scrapping Cottage Store.  Just click on the picture and it will take you right to it.


Wishing you a bright and beautiful day filled with everything you love!  Happy crafting!!
