LOVE card

Good morning everyone! 

Welcome to CottageCutz Blog!    
This is OlenaToday is my second post as designer!
I wanted to share my NEW LOVE card. I made this card using the Super CUTE -CUTE CottageCutz - Oval Doily &Frame dies and Filigree Butterfly Trio dies.

On this card I used the gorgeous CottageCutz Oval Doily &Frame die to create Oval doily shape. Next, I cut out Butterfly from Filigree Butterfly Trio die set, sponged the edges and glued on Oval frame.
  
Next, I stamp sentiment with craft ink and glued on paper tag and then on my card. I decorated card with plastic pearls.

Love on wings...


Here is my (Simona) second post for Scrapping Cottage BlogThis time I created a card with the theme LOVE. It can be used for many different occasions such as Valentine's day, Wedding or to express you care deeply for someone.

for my card.


The card size is 6"x6". 


The dies CottageCutz Dove Shape (3x3) and CottageCutz Lock & Key Shape (3x3) were cut out of white cardstock. I distressed a dove lightly on the edges with Distress Ink - Pumice Stone. I colored the lock and the key with Copics in grey tones from light to dark. 


To add some sparkle to the dove I used Tattered Angels Glitter Paint - Chandelier and for the locket and the key I used Glossy Accents. I also used a white gel pen and Liquid Pearls - Petal Pink. For the sentiment I used Cottage Impressions Frame 1 Lettering Clear Stamps (4 items) - Be Mine.


For more inspiration see my blog.

Till next time...Simona

Flower Shop


Hello everyone!  Kathy here today!  I'm back with my second creation for CottageCutz!  This time I've used the adorable Flower Shop Die to make a cute pink and white shop. 



 



This was so much fun to make!  I used white, pink, and a little bit of brown cardstock.  I scored white cardstock for the shop base.  I used pink, green, and brown inks to shade the edges of the pieces.  I made the sidewalk using the awning piece with brown cardstock which I think came out kind of cute!  The "trees" in the background are just lace I placed upside down.  The twine is a sample I recently got with an order from RRR...I need to set some more of this for sure!

Here's a closeup of the shop...





Here's a picture of the Flower Shop Die:






Thanks for stopping by today!  I hope you enjoyed my project!

Wheels

Hi Everyone! 
It's Lisa here!
Today I am sharing a layout I created.
This is I photo I had taken back in the fall when my family and I went on our annual pumpkin patch picking. The farm we went to had their wheelbarrows all lined up like this and I thought it looked really cool!


Once again I have used the beautiful CottageCutz Leafy Foliage Die.
This leaf die has become my new favorite! On this layout I cut the leaf branches apart and placed them around my flowers.

I created my my flowers using the CottageCutz Tropical Flower Die.
I cut three 3 of the large flowers and the sprayed them with a glimmer mist. I crinkled them and used some chalk ink on the edges and folds. I cut 6 layers of the smaller flower and layered them. The innermost one I scrunched up for a very fluffy center. I love working with this die. So many possiblities!

I hope you enjoyed my layout and it inspires you to try out these two fabulous dies!

Bo Bunny that I sew to the cardstock.

Furry Teddy Bear


Hello everyone, welcome to my first post at Scrapping Cottage blog using CottageCutz Dies. Vladka here and I decided to start with this cute Furry Teddy Bear, which reminded me on Valentine’s Day and on a new born baby at the same time. This is the reason that I made two cards, one for each occasion. Recipe for both cards is very simple:  Kraft paper + 4 Scrapping Cottage dies + different Distress Inks for coloring + white tempera + printed words. I really like to work with Kraft paper and both cards are entirely made of it. 
I love to watch how paper and die cuts get the new look, when I'm coloring them with sponge and different inks.
I never did vintage card for a newborn baby before, so I was really curious how it will look like at the end. When I was coloring the bear I got a picture in my mind where he was sitting on a shelf. So I used another CottageCutz Spice Rack & Jars and put teddy bear on a rack and gave three jars on it as well. Each jar is full of 'spices' which newborn baby brings to the world: happiness, joy and smile.
Second card is the perfect way to say someone that you love him/her. Such a cute teddy bear is the perfect messenger :o) Here I used two more dies - Angel Wings and Marker Sign Shape.
Here are the sets, which I used on my projects:

Have a beautiful day!
