Winter Wonderland Sleigh

Hello, Everyone! Here's a lovely Christmas Card
which I created using the CottageCutz Winter Wonderland Sleigh.
Take a look:


I prepared a circle easel style card as a base.
Added some red cardstock and paper from
K & Co.  Cut some different size circles 
to showcase the lovely sleigh and 
the sentiment.  I like flowers on my cards
so I decided on red and white ones for this 
card, and the leaves come from 
another die from Cottage Cutz
Hope you like it.


Here are the dies used:

Sunflowers & Country Crows



Hope everyone is having a wonderful Labor Day Weekend!

Kathy with you and today I have a fall card made using CottageCutz dies and stamps. The dies I used are Pot of Sunflowers, Fancy Floral Butterfly Corner, Tea Time Doily and Fancy Floral Lace Border. The stamps I used are Cottage Impressions' Country Crows.




I started with a side-step card for a base using a tutorial from Split Coast Stampers you can find here and Chance designer paper. I cut the Fancy Floral Lace Border with white and sponged the edges a bit. The "sun" is the Tea Time Doily cut with More Mustard that I trimmed down and inked a little. The Pot of Sunflowers were cut with More Mustard for the pot, Mocha Devine for the dirt and flower centers and white for the leaves and flower petals that I colored with inks. The green butterflies and flower were pieces cut with the Chance designer paper using the Fancy Floral Butterfly Corner that I trimmed and shaped.

The Country Crows were stamped on Solar White with Onyx Black Ink and colored with pencils. I then fussy cut them and popped them on the card, one on the front and the other on one of the "steps". I also made a second sunflower and popped it on the second "step" in the background. This is a fun card shape to give a scenery card a little depth.

Here are the dies and stamps I used.

Mr. Smores



Hello everyone, Cheryl here today with another card designed for SCS challenge using the DARLING Mr. Smores from the CottageCutz "Christmas Cheer" Release. I absolutely LOVE this entire release! To view all new CottageCutz dies in this release visit the Scrapping Cottage here


Mr. Smores was cut out with all white card stock and then colored with copics. Next I added some black pearls for his eyes. The Flourish Christmas Tree and Winter Frost Border are both from the Winter Wonderland Collection

The darling dp is from DCWV and I bought this a couple of years back. Love the snowman as they fit perfect with the theme here. Also used the marshmallow and CandyCane dp that matches. 

My White Satin ribbon is from RRR and the snowflake in the center of my bow is a button. I added some Pearls to the corners, and did a simple stitch on the sewing machine.

 I used the CottageCutz Winter frost Border 2 times on my card, and then 2 of the Flourish Christmas Tree's, Tree's were colored with copics.


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

Angel "I love you"


Hello everyone , Cheryl here with a card I made for yesterday's SplitCoastStampers challenge using the Beautiful CottageCutz dies. LOVE these NEW CottageCutz from the "Winter Wonderland" Collection, and the "Christmas Cheer" Collection.

The challenge was "Way to use it" and we were to use an Angel on our card/project!
For my Angel I cut her out in all white and then colored her with copics. For her wing I used Angel Dust from CIP's. I love this CottageCutz Christmas Angel from the Christmas Cheer Collection found Here, as she is so sweet looking! The CottageCutz Winter Pine Branch is from the CottageCutz Winter Wonderland Collection found here!

The dp is some I bought a couple of years ago and is DCWV and I LOVE this dp!! I did add some simple sewing to my card, and used one of my favorite layouts.

CottageCutz Fancy Peony Easel Card

 Welcome it's Carol here with another creation for CottageCutz at The Scrapping Cottage.  Today's dies are the Fancy Peony, Fancy Floral Corner #2, Bella Leafy Branch, and Tea Time Doily.
 This is an easel card made with the spellbinders scallop nestability set as my base.  I then attached the Fancy Floral Corner #2 around the outside edge on the back.  They fit perfectly together to give the lacy affect you see here.
 The tea time doily is used to showcase the beautiful Fancy Peony die.  I used some rhinestones in the center of the flower that I cut from a rhinestone trim sheet,  The flower were created with a medium 5 petal punch and distressed with peacock feather distress ink.   You can see the sweet Bella Leafy Branch that I cut up and used to accent the flowers.
Thank you for stopping by today to view my card.  I sure do appreciate it.   Until next time, happy crafting and see you soon!!!  Here are the dies I used:

Album for newborn baby

Hi, Vladka here. Today I want to show you some pages from the scrapbook album for the newborn baby. Pages on the photos are not add to the book yet, because it is easier to photograph them so. :) These main pages separate the album into parts, which show some main events which happen in the baby´s first year. After every page is a space for photos and some sheets are added that some short stories or important dates can be written down.
Here is the front page with cute Furry Teddy Bear and white bird on the branch: 
I used another branch and second bird on the first inside page. I also put some grass there and between is a place for one photo, for example.
The next page which I want to present you is this one with Giraffe. I thought that this motive will be perfect symbol or metaphor for largeness.
Here is the last page which I will show you, but not the last one in the whole album. Little boy has 3 sisters and here is the place to add some sisters drawings. On this page I used following dies: Butterflies and Greenery.
It is always such fun to create something for babies or kids. I really enjoyed creating this!
