CottageCutz-The Three Mermaids

 Greetings everyone and welcome to another addition of CottageCutz.  Today it's Carol with a post featuring the beautiful Mermaid die from the Tropical Release.  What a beautiful set for the summer.  You will love creating with these.

 To create the mermaids I die cut them from watercolor paper.  I then used Adirondack ink in Meadow and Steam to color these beautiful ladies.  They were then glittered with "Lagoon" Stickles.  Don't these colors sound so tropical!!!  Perfect right!!!!

It's the perfect summertime card.   Oh, did you notice the burlap......yes, it's back again in my cards.  But this time it's in a beautiful tropical color.  I just love the texture.  Thanks so muck for stopping by today to take a peek.  Until next time, Happy Crafting!  See you again soon.  This was the die used:

Fishbowl

Hi all!  Vladka here!

Today I have special card for you because I made this window which looks like water. I found instruction on internet, but I used thicker shower gel instead of hair gel and put it into small plastic bag. I sealed it with scotch tape and put it between card base and front cardstock which looks like wood. 

Inside of the card I put with distress inks colored circle and following die cuts: Happy Fish 1 and Under the Sea. It really looks like fishbowl and it was really fun project. 

But After I finished it and I was pushing gel around to get smaller bubbles, bag burst a little bit and my gel started to coming out. I've tried to save the card with scotch tape but it was to late. I had to cut off the front part of the card. So, my advice is to use thicker plastic bag and don't send such card with regular mail. But it can work and it looks fantastic, so I think I will give it another try. I was a little sad for a moment but because project itself was so fun, my sadness got away quickly. 

Have fun and have great weekend!

It's time to party....

CottageCutz Flamingo

Greetings friends and crafters from Florida The Sunshine State.  Have you been to Florida and seen the beautiful Flamingos.  Nothing says tropical paradise like Flamingos and Palm Trees.   How cute is this Flamingo die from CottageCutz!  The Tropical Frame die was used for the Greetings sign.  I love the rustic tropical feel of the frame.  It reminds me of the decor at the Polynesian Resort at Disney World.

 What's a tropical vacation without your flipflops.  That is such a super cute die from CottageCutz.  A Martha Stewart punch around the page was used for the white square.   The palm tree was cut free hand out of a printed green cardstock and a plain green cardstock with the trunk of the tree with brown cardstock.

 The sign was printed and cut out from my computer.  The word Florida was cut with a Cricut.  The beaks on the Flamigos were colored with a Black Copic Marker and their bodies were painted with glue and glittered with Martha Stewart Pink Glitter.

Thank you for stopping by to take a peek at this creation.  It's such a fun project to create.  Until next time, happy crafting.  See you soon!  These were the dies used:

Place worth going

Hi, all! Vladka Here today!

I have another summer holiday card which will take you to a special place worth going. I made open window with view on this Happy Whale between the Waves under the Clouds. 

Around the window I put life preserver, which I made  with circle dies. Background which looks like wood, I made out of kraft paper, Walnut Stain and Vintage Photo Distress Inks and wooden stamp. This is it for today. 

Enjoy the summer. Here is really hot outside.
