Slice Of Cake



Hello crafters!

Today I have a Birthday card for you with
Slice of Cake. For this card I also used
CottageCutz Expressions Happy and Birthday


The Slice of Cake die was cut out of white card stock
and colored with Distress Ink pads. Magnolia Doily
was cut out of some Wedding DP from my stash.
Expressions Happy and Birthday were cut out
of red polka dot Bearly Mine Designs.


I added two red buttons, a white pearl to one of the
buttons and some twine to another.


Hope you like today's card with gorgeous and so 
simple to use Expressions dies.

talented CottageCutz designers.

Happy crafting everyone!

Happy Together

Happy Saturday!

Hope you are having a wonderful weekend!  Today I have a side-step card to show you using a bunch of CottageCutz Dies!




The last time I did a side-step card it was with crows, this time it's deer!  This is a fun card shape when you want to create a scene.  As soon as I saw these dies, I thought it would be fun to put them all together!  Here's a bit of a side view for you.  You can also click on the photos for a closer view.





The back fold has the pine trees from the Woodland Cabin and the Woodland Pine Trees Dies.  The middle fold has the rest of the Woodland Cabin Dies.  The front has the Woodland FawnsGarden Birdhouse Tree, and the grass from the Canadian Goose Die.

I used brown, yellow, and salmon pink card stock for the cabin and white card stock, colored with chalk inks, for the rest.  The brown card stock is Brownie from Coredinations which I also used to make the card base.  To create the base, I used the Side Step Card tutorial on Split Coast Stampers that you can find here.

The sentiment is from Happy Together by Stampin Up, stamped on the salmon pink colored card stock with Rich Cocoa by Memento.  I then punched it with the Word Window punch and added it over the grass with pop dots.

The ribbon embellishment is made with Salmon Pink Seam Binding, Cocoa Jute String (both from Really Reasonable Ribbon), fibers from my stash and a button.  I did separate triple loop bows, glued them together with glue dots, then add the button with a fiber bow in it on top.

These are the dies I used:

Sweet Filigree Cupcake


Hello everyone and beautiful Friday to you all...

Here is a new post for the Scrapping Cottage Blog.
I made a Birthday Gift Pocket for a gift card.
For the Pocket I used Petite Eyelet Pocket die
and to decorate it I used Sweet Filigree Cupcake
and Tiered Cupcakes dies.


This was so easy to make. I cut Petite Eyelet Pocket
out of DP and glued the sides together.
Then I cut the Sweet Filigree Cupcake and
Tiered Cupcakes also out of different DP and
sponged the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink.


Here is the back of the gift card pocket.


Here is another photo to see the real size of the project.

Hope you like it... :)

Hugs,

CottageCutz Garden Delight

Springtime Bunny
Hello everyone, today I am sharing another card made using the super SWEET CottageCutz Dies! 

For my card today I used the Sweet CottageCutz Springtime Bunny, and CottageCutz Garden Birdhouse Tree, both from the Garden Delight Collection. Next I used the CottageCutz Rustic Fence w/Grass border from the Harvest Season Collection found here. The CottageCutz Sweetheart Border is from the Sweet Love Collection. I absolutely LOVE them all! 

The bunny was cut using a light brown card stock, and then dusted with distressed ink. Next I colored the flowers and stems with Tim Holtz markers, except for the yellow ones those were done with copics. 

For the design paper I used the darling Farmhouse Paper pad from American Crafts, and then used the red card stock from the Earth Tones Collection. I also used the Cream as well. For my Ribbon I used Really Reasonable Ribbons Satin with Grosgrain Edge. The Flower and button are also from RRR.

Thank you for looking and have a lovely day!
Hugs to all,
Cheryl

CottageCutz Spring Mini Pages 1 & 2

Greetings friends and papercrafters.  It's Carol here today with another post featuring the CottageCutz Spring Mini Album with the beautiful Cottage Cutz dies.  It's an envelope mini made with the We R Memory Keepers Envelope Punch Board.  You can find the tutorial here that I used to create this sweet little mini album
 For the first page I used the Garden Birdhouse Tree on the tag.  The Spring Hedgehogs are playing by the Garden Butterfly Tree..  The little Confectionery Bags, Small hold the sweetest little tags made with the Spring Daisy Egg.  Such a cute and fun page.
 The tree has been embellished with pearls that were colored with copic markers.  Martha Stewart Punch around the page was used on the tag and the matt for this page.
 For the second page a pocket was created to hold two folders.  The pocket has been decorated with Springtime Friends.  Isn't this a precious die.  I love the chicks-they crack me up....get it....crack me up....lol  On the folders we have one with the Garden Delight Bird and the other with the Fancy Daisy Vine.
 When you open these two folders, each one houses a pocket for egg tags that were made with the Garden Butterfly Egg and the Spring Sunrise Egg dies from CottageCutz.  Lots of detail for this Spring mini Album.
Thanks for stopping by today to view my album.  Here is the front cover from the last time I posted my Design team project.  I will be back soon with more pages to show you.  I hope you enjoyed your visit.  Until next time, Happy Crafting, see you soon!  Here are the dies I used:

Spring atmosphere

Hi all, Vladka here with you today!
It is time for Spring. Garden Delight release helped me to create this atmosphere on my card. I used  Garden Birdhouse Tree and Spring Birdhouse dies and colored them with different Distress Inks.
Time is precious thing and we need to spend it wisely. And every spring I feel like I have a little more time. Probably because of the longer days, but anyway, feeling is good and I manage to do more things as in winter. And I also love this time, because this are the first days of the year when I can go outside and enjoy my cup of coffee. Trees with first blossoms and singing birds are perfect company.  
Enjoy your days and spend the time wisely!
