Harvest Sunflower With Owls and Vines

For today's post on The Scrapping Cottage Blog
I (Simona) prepared an Autumn themed card
showcasing gorgeous CottageCutz dies from
 All the dies were cut out of white cardstock and colored 
with distress ink pads: antique linen, vintage photo,
walnut stain, mustard seed, scattered straw and peeled paint.


The coaster behind the Harvest Sunflower and Owls
was made out of Spellbinders dies. I had some Vine stamps
in my stash and stamped them randomly  around parameter
of the inner white circle with Memento Rich Cocoa.
Once that was done I dry embossed the circle with Cuttlebug
embossing folder.
 

The background was made out of four equal squares,
cut from two different shades of brown cardstock and
dry embossed again with the Cuttlebug embossing folder
for some texture. As a final touch I added some
satin ribbon. 

Hope you feel inspired by today's project and
thank you for looking at the post.

Hugs,
Simona

Happy Fall

Hi, Vladka here! 


I have one simple autumn card for you and there is autumn outside and I love it. So much inspirations in colors and shapes. That is why I also love Harvest release form Scrapping Cottage. It is perfect to create cards or to embellish some deco stuff at home and bring some autumn inside of the house too.


Here is a little hedgehog, hidden behind the mushrooms. He is a little bit shy. :)



For this card I used three ScrappingCottage dies: Hedhog Mini, Mushrooms Mini and Harvest Vine.

Happy fall, everybody!

Merry Christmas card

Hello Everyone from Olena.


Today I am sharing a Christmas card I created with 

Beautiful  Homemade Christmas Gift Set CottageCutz Collections 2013. 





The CottageCutz Homemade Christmas Gift Set includes 
21 CottageCutz dies and 7 clear stamps.  
It ships in a reusable gift box with a Velcro fastener on the flap.  This makes the perfect gift for any scrapbooker or card-maker.
Here's my card:


 I cut sentiment out using red card stock and glued on white piece of paper. 
Then I cut around with scissors and glued on snowflakes background.  For background I used embossing folder.


Decorated card with rhinestones. 


Have a Wonderful Day! Olena

Harvest Rooster Vane


Happy Tuesday!

Kathy with you today with a card I made using the new Harvest Rooster Vane Die from the Harvest Release and the Fancy Floral Lace Border Die.






As soon as I saw this rooster die, I thought about doing red and white with gingham!  I used Ruby Slipper Cardstock from Bazzills to cut the dies and paired it with white and old gingham paper I found in my stash from DCWV's Bright Mat Stacks.  The white under the rooster is embossed with the Square Lattice Embossing Folder to give it a little texture.  I matted this with more of the Ruby Slipper and added it to a white card base.  The bow is a black and white gingham ribbon from Michaels.  I added a red button threaded with white floss to the bow center and added 2 little heart buttons with glue dots on the top right corner.  The sentiment is from the Boards & Beams Set from Papertry Ink stamped directly on the gingham paper.

Here's a little close up of the rooster for you.

CottageCutz Corrugated Harvest Boxes

 
Hello CottageCutz lovers.  Carol here with today's post.  It's Harvest time and my favorite time of the year.  The Cottage Cutz Harvest 2013 collection is just beautiful for creating those fall projects you'll want to share with family and friends.  As promised, I am back with a project that shows you what to do with the corrugated cards from the Michael's card and envelope sets.  On Saturday I showed you the envelope, this is what to do with the card. 
Aren't these boxes super cute.  They are 3" x 3" and can hold sweet treats or little cards and envelopes.  Whatever you decided, these are sure to please anyone who receives them.  Imagine how pretty this would be on a plate for Thanksgiving dinner. For this gift box I used the Filigree Leaf Pumpkin, Maple Leaf Mini, Oak Leaf Mini, Fall Vine, Sprig Vine Mini, and Leaf Mini. 
This box was created with the beautiful Fall Tree, Fall Vine, Hedgehog Mini and Sprig Vine Mini.  I just love the Sprig Vine Mini.  It reminds me of beautiful ferns.  And, don't get me started on the trees in this collection.  They are amazing.  I cut my tree with brown cardstock and painted the leafs orange and green smooch ink.  It looks amazing IRL.
Here is the inside of the boxes.  You can find the tutorial for making these here.  They are super easy and make up in no time.  So if you want to make them for your Thanksgiving dinner table-you still have plenty of time!  Thank you so much for visiting today.   My next project for CottageCutz will be another cute item for your Thanksgiving table setting.  Be sure to check back on November 19th for that.  Happy Crafting.  Here are the dies I used:

Owl always Love you

Hello everyone, today I wanted to share a Fun Fall Card using CottageCutz dies and Really Reasonable Ribbon.

For my card today I used the Sweet CottageCutz Harvest Owl, and I almost was going to add some gems to him, but decided for this card not to. The background behind my Owl is dusted with 3 different distressed inks. Next I used the Fall Vines as layers for some greenery, I thought the owl would look cute over the distressed background. The "Owl always love you" sentiment is from Victorine Originals. I added some mini ric rac for a bow, and to wrap around my card front. the Hemp bow is natural hemp 20lb. Love the camping design paper from BoBunny it works perfectly for fall!

Supplies Used:
BoBunny camping dp
Victorine Originals Stamped Owl sentiment
Really Reasonable Ribbon/Mini Ric Rac in chestnut and moss green
Buttons
Distressed inks for the background

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