CottageCutz Ghost Owl & Giveaway!

Hello everyone,

Today's card was designed for the SCS TLC challenge, to use Half On Half Off stamping.

For my card I stamped the bottom half on the design paper in Pansy Purple, and then stamped the top part of my stamp in Pumpkin Pie on white card stock, then punched out with SU! punch.

The Ghost Owls are  CottageCutz dies, are super super CUTE!!!! I cut them out using white card stock, then painted with Creative Inspirations paints Fairy Dust color.

CottageCutz Happy Halloween Tag Topper die cut was cut using Orange card stock and then colored using CIP "Royal Purple".

The CottageCutz Haunted Mushroom House was cut using black card stock, and I added some white dots to the tops. Super easy!! the CottageCutz Spooky Border was cut using Orange card stock, and I used the CIP's "Mango" color on the top part of the border.

I added some sewing, RRR Ribbon, and a Pumpkin sticker to embellish my card for today.

Happy Birthday Wreath & Giveaway

Hi, all! Vladka here today!

Wreaths are one of my favorite motives and so, Build-A-Grapevine Wreath is one of my favorite die. I used it together with Flourish Vine and Hula Owl die. With the last one I cut out just little flowers. All pieces were cut out of kraft paper and colored with Distress Inks, displayed also on this photo.

First I colored the wreath and started with Walnut Stain and continue with Vintage Photo. For this kind of coloring I'm always using Ink Blending Tool. This is my favorite way of coloring. Flourish vine and little flowers were colored the same way.

From red cardstock, I cut out words Happy and Birthday, three times each and glue them on top of each other. This way I get thicker and more interesant die cut. 

For finished touch I also added little bird. Card base is cut out with die and background is made with impression plate.

This is it for today! Have fun!

Celebrate the Season card

Hello Everyone!!!  Olena here today!

Today I'm showing you my new Fall card I created with beautiful  "Harvest Vine" die.

To make card, start by cutting white card stock using the "Harvest Vine border" die. So, we have beautiful white leave vine border.

The next step is background on card. For this I used white, yellow, orange and green pieces of card stock. I think these three colors the best combination for fall card.

I used a 5.5" x 3.75" white base card. Then, I cut yellow, orange and green colors in different sizes. 

The yellow piece of card stock 5.25" x 3.25" I pierced the edges using special tool with needle, with orange piece 3" x 5"  I embossed using embossing folder. On green piece of card stock 5" x 1" I stamped sentiment. You can stamp any fall sentiment, but I like this one.

Assembled all layers and adhered to the card base. Then adhered the white vine between orange and green panels. Embellished embossed panel with white small pearls.

Finished card size 5.5" x 3.75".

For this project I used:

Card Supplies:
CottageCutz dies: "Harvest Vine".
Card stock: white, yellow, green and orange.
Inks: red and white.
Stamps: Celebrate the season sentiment.
Other: Wire Fance embossing folder,  scissors, paper trimmer, scor-buddy, craft glue, pierce tool and self adhesive white pearls.
 
Thanks for visiting, I hope your day is wonderful!

CottageCutz Sea Otter W/Fish Tag

Just a little something to share today with you friends and crafters.  It's Carol here today with a little tag made with the gorgeous CottageCutz dies.  For this tag I used the Sea Otter w/Fish, Grass with Cattails, Elegant Frame, and Hello Expression Die. 

The tag is corrugated paper that I cut into a tag.  The Sea Otter was cut on brown cardstock and the fish on blue cardstock.  I hand drew the eyes.  the Grass with Cattails were cut one on light green cardstock and dark green cardstock and layered.  The frame was cut on white cardstock and attahed to two different pieces of designer paper.  The lace trim is a Martha Stewart punch.  Just at a seam binding bow, a paper flower and a crystal bling and your project is finish.  Thanks for stopping by today.  Sure do appreciate it.  Until next time, Happy Crafting.  See you soon.  Here are the dies used:

Happy Dolphin

Hi all! Vladka here today!

Just one more day and I will be on my way to the coast. I can't wait to jump in the sea and be free for awhile like this cute Happy Dolphin. This is quick and easy card to make. Here are the supplies I used: copic markers for coloring the Happy Dolphin (R20, C1 and C3), two Distress Inks for background (Tumbled Glass and Peacock Feathers), Ink Foam Blending Tool, White cardstock and three Wave Border die cuts, cut out of two different blue cardstock.

To get more interesting background, I gently colored it with circle motion: first with Tumbled Glass and then with Peacock Feathers Distress Ink. For this I used Ink Foam Blending Tool.

Then I put all my die cuts on the surface to see how it will be the best way to combine them.

At the end, I stamp the sentiment and decided to put also sun behind the waves like sunset.

This is it for today, I hope you like my card. Have a great weekend!
