Fall and Christmas

Hi, Vladka here today with two projects!

I have something old and something new. Actually both projects are new, but for the first one I used dies from previous releases and for the second one I used dies from new Christmas release. 

Fall is for me the most inspirational time of the year, because of the colors and card is special, because it was created for my mom´s birthday. It is an easel card, my first actually. On the front, I used Build a Grapevine Wreath die, one of my favorite. All die cuts are colored with Distress Inks, because it is the easiest way to get beautiful colors. Inside I used die cuts which I cut out with Hand Mirror and Cameo die. To get this look I used liquid pearls and add some Vintage Photo re-inker to get more brownish shade. Foliage nicely supplement the cameo and the front page.

And I have something more to show you. This project it is special for me and this is actually letter for Santa together with an envelope. Here I used following dies: Peeking Santa Bear, Double Bow and Build a Poinsettia. Stamps are from Christmas Gift Set.

Christmas is special time and because of that also creating the cards is special. Dies from both new Christmas releases are so playful in gives you really a lot of opportunities and ways to use them.

Have a great weekend!

Here are dies used for fall card:

CottageCutz Christmas 3 x 3 Mini Cards

Hello everyone, and Happy Friday to all! 

I made 3 mini cards for the Scrapping Cottage using the beautiful new CottageCutz Christmas Release Part 2

CottageCutz Mini cards Measure 3 x 3 I got these card bases for free. I have tons of them to use, so I decided I better get busy. They are perfect to put on Christmas presents, or just to give to wish a Merry Christmas. 

I love the CottageCutz Petites, they are perfect size for these mini cards. 

The Deer was cut with white card stock and then colored with copic markers. On the Ornement I colored it, and then used Glitter on it. And for the Bells, and Wreath I used copics again.

These were super easy to make, and love have fast they come together. I did add some Ribbons, Buttons, a little sticker sentiment, and snowflake glitter.

Balloon Bouquet!

Hello everyone!

Today's card is another super fast and easy card I made for the Scrapping Cottage using the darling CottageCutz Balloon Bouquet! This is one of the many DARLING CottageCutz Dies from the "Birthday" Release!

Card Measures 2 1/2" x 6"

Super fast and easy to make! I cut the card stock at 5" x 6 then scored on the 5" side at the 2 1/2" mark. I rounded the corners once scored and folded using a 1/2" corner rounder. Next I cut the card stock at 2 1/4" x 5 3/4" and rounded the one side. I did distress the card stock using distress ink and a duster. 

Next I cut the CottageCutz Balloon Bouquet with blue card stock, and then added glitter glue to the balloons. set aside to dry, unless you do embossing powder and heat dry, that would be faster.

I then added my ribbon and bow, and lastly the pearl half backs to the bottom.

Today's Post is a Gift Card holder using the NEW CottageCutz "Gift Card Holder" Die & CottageCutz Tag Topper , Fancy Birthday Present, and Birthday Wishes Doily,all from the "CottageCutz Birthday Release"

CottageCutz Halloween Pennant

 

Welcome friends and crafters.  Today it's Carol here and I have a Halloween pennant to share with you using the beautiful CottageCutz Halloween dies.   This pennant is 11 inches long.  I did not use a template.  I just cut it out with cereal box chipboard and covered with designer paper.  The Haunted House is 4 x 6 and mounted on a large rosette.

For decoration across the top of the pennant the Spooky Iron fence was used.  The spiders are an older Martha Stewart punch.

The Filigree Bat was used to decorate the Rosette.  This was so much fun to make and would make a wonderful addition to you Halloween Home Decor projects.

Thank you for stopping by today to view my project.  I appreciate it very much.  Happy Crafting.  See you again soon.  These are the dies I used:
