I have a new post for The Scrapping Cottage Blog
Today' I am saying HELLO to you all with 
a Mushroom card, embellished
with lovely CottageCutz dies Hedgehog Mini,
that were perfect for this card. 


I cut the Ladybug Mini and Daisy

The Hedgehog Mini and Grass Border were also cut out
of white card stock and colored with Distress Inks.
For the letters I used Sugar & Cream Alphabet die and

Happy Together gift tags

Hello Everyone!!!

  Today I am sharing my new Wedding gift tag I created with beautiful CottageCutz Collections of dies.

Garden Poppies & Butterflies

Happy Sunday!

Kathy with you and today I have a slider card to show you using some pretty pastel colors for spring and 4 beautiful CottageCutz Dies.  I used 2 new dies from the  Garden Delight ReleaseGarden Poppies and Garden Delight Butterflies and 2 dies from previous collections, Victorian Window and Laundry Line.




Here's a view from the side so you can see it really is a slider card!  (It's hard to tell from the first photo!)




The card base and all the die cuts were done with white card stock and the pieces were colored with VersaMagic Chalk Inks and make up applicators.  I used Thatched Straw and Spring Pansy on the window, bird, and butterfly.  The flowers and stems were colored with Spring Pansy and Aloe Vera.

This is a 4 1/4" x 4 1/4" slider card.  I used an embossing folder border for the lower front.  I added the window die with pop dots using a piece of lace under it to show through the window to look like a curtain.  I cut the flower piece in half so I could put some on each side of the window.  I added a second layer of flowers on the "open" ones glueing them at their center and then added Lemon Chiffon Mini Prills.  The bird was added with a pop dot.  Then I added ribbon and trim below the window using Scor-Tape.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment on a piece of white card stock and added it with pop dots to keep the card open.  I then glued the butterfly down it's center with glue and added Lemon Chiffon Mini Prills.

These are the dies I used:

Springtime Bunny



Hello everyone and Happy Saturday to all! Today I am sharing a card I made using the DARLING CottageCutz "Springtime Bunny" from the Scrapping Cottage "Garden Delight Release" found here. LOVE this darling little bunny, she is super CUTE!!!! 

I also used the CottageCutz Sweet Love Doily, and the CottageCutz Sweetheart Border for my card today. These both are from the "Sweet Love" Release that can be found here. Also the photo's below are linked to the dies at the Scrapping Cottage for easy finding.

For the CottageCutz Springtime bunny, I cut her out in white and then dusted her with distressed ink. Next I colored her cheeks,ears, and flowers all with copic markers. Her eyes were done with Viva Pearl Pen in black. For the Doily and border I just left them white, as they pop layered on the greens. I made my card also for Really Reasonable Ribbons "Show me the Green" challenge. :) 

I LOVE all the NEW dies in the "Garden Delight" Release! If you haven't had a chance to see them, you can find them all HERE :)



Thank you for looking and have a super awesome weekend!!
Hugs to all,
Cheryl

Garden Floral Frame & Butterfly Egg


Hello again....

It's Simona with you today with a NEW card made for
with beautiful dies from the 

Another quick and easy card to put together.
I found the inspiration to make this card in Kathy's card



I used plain white card stock, Bearly Mine digital paper and
some glitter paper form my stash. I cut Garden Floral Frame
 and Garden Butterfly Egg out of pink Bearly Mine digital paper.
The Garden Butterfly Egg I cut out once again out of
purple glitter paper. 


I placed a purple Butterfly Egg cut out on top of the
pink Butterfly Egg cut out and cut out the butterfly with
the scissors. That way I got exactly the same cut out of
the butterfly. This is important since I replaced the purple
butterfly with the pink one and glued everything on a white
embossed card stock. Then I used the purple glittered
butterfly as a 3D on top of the pink butterfly ( I hope
that makes sense... :)).


Since those Filigree detailed butterfly egg die and 
Garden Floral Frame die are such gorgeous
cuts I didn't want to add much more. I wanted them
to be the focal point of the card. So I just added 
some Premium Gemstones and drew some faux 
stitching pattern with a purple marker.


I hope you feel inspired to do some crafting...

Thank you for stopping by today and
wish you all a lovely day!

Hugs,
Simona
