Welcome To Our Home Mini Décor Project

Hello Scrapping Cottage friends!  

Melinda here with you on this Terrific Tuesdie!  Today I am sharing a Patriotic Mini Home Décor project. It features some sweet little cupcakes from one of the dies from the New Sweet Treats Release! 

Here is my project.

I started with a cute little distressed home metal shaped silhouette. I found it at the dollar store.

I created the inner sentiment on my computer. I printed it off on some plain white cardstock. I printed it off on four different sizes as I wasn't sure which size would look the best.

Once I picked the size I felt would work, I used the third largest pierce circle die and cut it out.

I then cut, colored and assembled some of the sweet little cupcakes from the Pedestal Stand W/ Cupcakes die. I cut all the pieces out in white cardstock. I only had to color in the red and blue pieces. Easy peasy!  I also added some clear stickles to the "stars" on the cupcakes and on some of the white frosting.  I used some red stickles on the berries to give them a little sparkle.

I used some foliage from the Christmas Floral and Lantern With Pine Boughs Dies. I cut them all out in white cardstock as well. I then colored in the little stems with the "holly" berries on them.

I also added a dot of some blue stickles to the centers of the stars on the image. The little bow I added on the chimney is also from the Lantern With Pine Boughs Die.

Here are a couple of closeup photos of the cute cupcakes and foliage. You can see them sitting on the cute base that is a part of the die as well.

I did mount the white pierced circle with the image onto the next size up pierced circle that I used to cut out some Kraft cardstock. I added some foam tape between them to give it all a little lift from the base.

Here it is on my dining room table. I decided I didn't quite like it here. Felt like it got lost in the shuffle....lol.

Here is where I decided to put it. on my table in my entrance. 

Here is the new sweet treats release.

The Dies I used to create this project:

Pedestal Stand W/ Cupcakes

I also used the Lantern With Pine Boughs Die which is a discontinued die. However both the Christmas Farmhouse Floral and Deer Floral Spray dies both have some great "Holly berry" type alternatives.

Candy

Happy Monday everyone.  I am back sharing my Candy Cart card and its all about the hot pink. I wasnt sure how I wamted to make my cart so I diecut it out in a variety of colors. 

This has been my new thing use a nice color variation then I have wxtras to ise on multiple cards.

Finally I decided to go with hot pink, black and siler

mirror paper and I will say I am pleased.

I embossed a piece of 5x7 white cardstock using a wood baclground embossing folder

Then I added some lollipops and a few gifts I didn’t want to crowd my cart with too much stuff 

I hope everyone enjoy my card and thanks for stopping by! 

Sweet Slimline Birthday

Hello and welcome back ~ it's Kris here on this sweet Sunday... or shall I say sundae? ☺  This week I'm sharing a yummy slimline birthday card using the Ice Cream Sundae die from the new Sweet Treats release, along with some other funtastic CottageCutz dies! 

Design Steps

I cut a piece of pink cardstock to 8-1/2" x 7" & scored at 3-1/2" along the 7" side.

Next, I die-cut a white frame (I used glittery white cardstock) from the Windows Slimline die.

And then I cut 3 pieces of coordinating patterned papers at 2-1/2" x 2-3/4".  

I glued the patterned papers to the back of window frames, and then glued the frame to card base.

Next, I cut all my pieces with the Ice Cream Sundae and sentiment dies and glued together.  

• The cupcake liners were cut from patterned papers in the same paper pad as my 3 rectangle frame pieces so they coordinate.  I cut the rest of the die out of pink, brown and white cardstock. 
•  I gave some shadows to the strawberry & chocolate ice cream and colored all other pieces with Copic markers.  
• The top layers of the sentiments were cut from glittery white cardstock, like the frame.
• I added some shaker elements to the ice cream for some sparkly "sprinkles"

And to finish the card, I attached all the die-cut elements to my card front using foam dots.  Easy peasy!

Thanks for taking a peek!  Hope your Sunday is extra sweet!

Baked with Love!

 Hello Friends

Happy Thursday! It is Pam sharing with you today!

I have recently been on a baking kick!  But in order to keep it off my waistline and the hubby's I am giving a lot of it away!  So I thought this card would make a perfect companion to the baked goods.  I used the adorable Cake Shoppe die to create this sweet little card.

Design Steps:

1.  The white card base is 4 3/4 x 6 3/4, the frame and heart is from Pine Cone Papers.  I used dimension tape to attach the frame to the card base.  I also used a dimension dot behind the heart 

2.  Use the Cake Shoppe die and cut out the following paper: DP red checked, DP brown, DP dotted turquoise, white, vellum and DP dotted mustard

3.  Using the Clouds Horizontal Slimline die cut out some clouds in DP checked turquoise 

4.  Finish decorating the little cake shop and add the clouds to the sky.  I added 3 rhinestones: two to the banner and one on the flower on the cake shoppe sign.  Your card is complete

Here's Your Sign

Marla here with another CottageCutz YouTube Video Tutorial.  My card today features the "Easel Sign w/ Flowers" from the "Sweet Treats" release and the 'Botanical Garden 2" die.  This cute sign has recently been paired perfectly with the "Cake Shop" and the "Candy Cart" dies. For my card, I wanted to move it from the store front to the center of attention on my floral birthday slimline card.

You can see how this card came together over on the CottageCutz YouTube Channel and enter the GIVEAWAY for a chance to win this die.  I hope you'll join me. In the meantime, here are the CottageCutz products I used on my card today.  Until next time.....
