Garden Thank You

 

Hi everyone!  Kathy here with a card to show you using 2 CottageCutz' Dies, Garden Bird Branch and Butterfly Mini.




I cut the butterfly and branch using green cardstock and shaped the branch a little. I cut them again with white cardstock and colored the pieces with chalk inks. The birds and flowers were added with pop dots onto the first layer. I embossed the top portion of the white mat with an embossing folder and stamped a sentiment on the bottom. I wrapped ribbon around the mat and glued all the pieces down. I then added a bow and some liquid pearls.

I love this little butterfly die, I didn't much to it and it came out so cute! The branch will be good to used for the birds alone and the branch pieces to add to other creations and dies.  Here are the dies I used:

 

A Happy Hello Card

Hi All! Lisa here today and I am sharing a round card I created for CottageCutz using the beautiful 

Filigree Butterfly Trio die 

and the

Pink Peony Flower Die

I used a cd for a template and cut a circle card with cardstock. Over this I cut two pattern pieces of paper and punched the edges. I layered many of the elements and added the beautiful Peony Die and Butterfly Die.

Here is another view. I love the Peony flower! I will be using it often.

Mom...you're the sweetest!

Hi, Friends,

Today I am showcasing a lovely card with

CottageCutz Filigree Frame and 

CottageCutz  Flowers Layered dies.

  Take a look:

To create this look on the flowers I cut (3) medium and (2) small,

wet them and let dry.  Before they dry completely scrunch

each petal in the center and let dry.  

Use some distress ink on each petal and assemble.

Papers from Webster's pages and Bella Blvd.

Sentiment created from my PC and 

(very old) MM stickers.

 Other: ribbon, pearls.

Hugs, 
Frances

For all book lovers

"The odd thing about people who had many books 

was how they always wanted more."

                                   - Patricia A. McKillip - 

So, I admit I'm odd and I can't help it! And my name is Vladka :) I just love books and no other media can't give you this special feeling like when you have one good book in your hands. That the fact. So, if you need a little present for your friend who loves books, you can make him/her a card and a bookmark. This is what I came up with:

I printed the quote on a card and made a shelf for books from two CottageCutz dies: CottageCutz Ornate Circle Frame and CottageCutz Spooky Iron Shelf. CottageCutz Die cuts are coloured with grey ink pad and with little white tempera. Also books are coloured with ink pads.

Bookmark is made from circle and CottageCutz  Ornate Circle Frame, which is not glued on a surface completely,  I glued it just on upper part, that it can be added on the page in the book.

Happy Easter!

Spring Chick-a-dee Basket

Easter is just around the corner and time to think of Easter baskets and Chocolate Bunnies!  Here's a little egg shaped Easter Basket I created with the Spring Chick-a-dee and Greenery die from CottageCutz.

A Martha Stewart Punch was used to create the decorative edge around the egg shaped basket and the little fence border.  The Martha Stewart matching border punch was used to decorate the handle.  Prima flowers and the Greenery decorate the front along with a little pearl swirl.  This Spring Chick-a-dee is all dressed in her Easter finery and ready to put a smile on the face of the person who receives it filled with chocolate.  Here are the CottageCutz dies used:

 

Thanks for viewing my project today.  Sure do appreciate it.  Hope you have a wonderful Easter!

Hanging Monkey

Hello, dear friends. 

Simona here and I am sharing with you a Spring card today,

showcasing CottageCutz Hanging Monkey (4x6) die.

With todays post I wanted to show how versatile CottageCutz dies
 are and how you can use this die for different occasions. 
When I saw this die for the fist time I thought this would be a perfect 
die to make a card for a baby. Instead I decided to make
a Spring card... :). The die comes with a pretty big 
wooden board on which you can stamp any sentiment.

I had so much fun making this card.

The size card is 6"x 6".

The Hanging Monkey is cut out of white paper and colored

with Copic markers. The branch and the leaves were also

colored with Copic markers.

The circle behind the monkey was cut out with Spellbinders dies,

dry embossed and lightly inked with Distress Inks - dried marigold

and spiced marmelade. 

The sentiment Spring was stamped with clear VesaMark

and sprinkled with orange sherbet embossing powder, then 

heated with the heat gun. An orange marker

with a fine tip was used to outline the sentiment.

I also used Martha Stewart punch, some liquid pearls -

buttercup, ruby red, brads and orange satin ribbon from my stash. 

I hope you enjoyed todays post.

Thank you for stopping by...

I wish you all a wonderful day!

Hugs,

Simona

For  the bottom of the Cupcake Shop I used Core'dinations Card Stock, and embossed it with a Cuddlebug Dots folder, then sanded it, so the lighter color would come through. The Icing on the shop was cut out using SU! design paper. Next for behind my cupcake shop I used the CottageCutz Oval Doily & Frame Die, and distressed the edges in pink. My white scalloped border is a MS punch

♥♥♥Embellishments♥♥♥

Design Paper Layers are all from scraps. I embellished my card  using Really Reasonable Ribbon(sheer double ruffled edge), and buttons. The sweet dew drops are from The Robins Nest, and I Love using these to embellish!!
