Ornate Door

Hello, Vladka here again! I hope you are having good time!

This 'N That release is really so various, that can be use for all different paper projects. I know we are still far away from Christmas, but this beautiful door associated me on this time of the year. It was a time, when I love to create and cut furniture from paper and put them on cards. I was using just my scissors for that. But with new This 'N That release and Ornate Door die everything is easier. I completed my card with some greenery and hanging heart. 

It is really interesting how I didn't want to use hearts on my projects before, but now they are almost on all my cards, tags... That is the proof how we are changing. 

I wish you wonderful day!

Victorian Window and Spring Butterfly Notecard

Hello everyone!

Here I am (Simona) with a new card showcasing beautiful

CottageCutz dies from CottageCutz This N That release -

Victorian Window and Spring Butterfly Notecard.

I decided to make another step card... :).

The base of the card was cut out of brown cardstock.

The Spring Butterfly Notecard was cut out of BoBunny County 

Garden collection and then dry embossed with a brick

embossing folder. Once embossed I inked it lightly 

with Dried marigold Ranger Ink

to give the bricks a little bit more depth.

I also cut the notecard once

out of brown cardstock and glued it to the back of the BoBunny

notecard, to make it sturdier. 

As you can see at the back I used the negative cut out from the same

paper and placed another DP behind it.

Victorian Window was cut out of white cardstock and colored

with copics. 

I placed the Victorian Window onto the Spring Butterfly Notecard

and positioned it where I wanted it to be. Then I drew

the lines with a pencil on the inside of the window.

I removed the victorian window and placed the butterfly notecard

on my cutting mat. Then I took the X-Acto knife and cut

out the window slightly bigger then where I drew the lines.

Then I glued the window in place.

On the inside of the card I glued Vintage Chair with 3D pop dots

and also one of the birds from Victorian Birdbath.

I also used the same birds and place them on the outside of the card.

The birds were cut out of white cardstock and sponged with 

Dried marigold and Mustard seed Ranger Inks.

To finish the card I used Ivy and Grass Border.
Everything was cut out of white cardstock and
sponged with Peeled paint Ranger ink.

Here is a side view of the card.

Thank you for stopping by. Hope you have a lovely day.

Hugs,

Simona

the small piece in the middle I created

the top tag in which I placed my sentiment.

Other material used: Bazzill cardstock, flowers,

CottageCutz - Butterfly Mini Journal

Hello Everyone!

  Olena here and Today I am sharing a Butterfly Mini Journal I created with beautiful 
CottageCutz Collections.

 This Collection have so many awesome tags, envelopes and small note cards. For my Butterfly Mini Journal I used Scallop Insert card/tag die from NEW Collection , Beautiful Filigree Butterfly Trio die and Leafy Foliage die.

For my project I cut out seven times Scallop tag, sponged and stamped line for notes. On front tag I put leafy Foliage die cut, double butterfly and sentiment. I, also, added  ribbon and embellishments to tag front as shown in picture above. 

For this project I used:

 
 
 

Garden Hello Wall Hanging

Hi everyone!  Kathy here and today I have a wall hanging to share with you!




I used lots of beatiful CottageCutz Dies and Secret Garden Designer Papers from Graphic 45 to make this. The base is a page from a 8" x 8" scalloped chipboard album I got at Michaels. I covered it with an off-white designer paper (dp) that has crack lines on it and added a piece of peach dp to look like the side of a house. The outside border is a piece of the designer paper that I trimmed out the center of leaving just the border. Under the top of the border, I placed a piece of striped dp that was punched with a scalloped border on it. Under the bottom of the border, I added a picket fence using the Picket Fence Border Die and peach dp. I inked the edges a little and placed green dp under it.

All these pieces were glued together and added to the chipboard with Mod Podge. After letting it dry well, I trimmed the out side edge of the paper to match the scallop on the chipboard. (Note: Next time I do, this I will trace the chipboard shape on the back of the dp with pencil and trim it before adhering to the chipboard!)

The Garden Bird Branch was cut with the green dp and the 2 birds in it were cut with the peach and glued in place.

For the branch along the fence, I used the Bluebird Die with green dp, shaped it and tucked it in in the fence a little. The flowers on the 2 branches are from the Blossom Branch Die that I cut using peach dp and Solar White. I shaped these with my tool kit and mat and inked them.

For the window, I used the Springtime Window Die and cut it with green dp. The image in the window is a piece from the dp that I trimed to fit. I added the birdcage in peach dp and 2 birds all from the Birdcage & Stand Die. On the bottom of the window I added a piece of lace and mini pompom trim (a sample from Really Reasonable Ribbon) with Scor-tape.

Here's a little close up for you.



The little flower pots are from the Springtime Window Die that I cut with the green and peach dp and some Solar White and terra cotta color papers I had in my scraps folder.

For finishing touches, I added liquid pearls to flower centers, added twine bows and adhesive pearls. The chipboard tag, from Secret Garden, was added to the bottom with a tiny piece of the Moss Ribbon. Moss Ribbon was added to the back to use as a hanger and them covered with paper to finish.

Here are the dies I used on my project.

"Hi" Card

Hi Everyone! Lisa here and today I am sharing a card I created using the beautiful new Floral Notecard from the This N That collection at CottageCutz. You must stop by and see this collection in it's entirety! Sweet designs that are perfect for cards and tags!

Several papers were layered and then I added the Floral notecard and used it as the top layer on the card. I love the cut out design and topped it off with some die cut letters.

My favorite type of bows are ones created with seam binding. I use them all the time and love to color them with glimmer mists.

The little butterfly is the Butterfly Mini. I embossed it and then lightly went over it with ink. I also added some pearls to the body.

I have found a new love in card making and CottageCutz dies are just perfect for this type of art!
