Sew what's new?


Hello dear CottageCutz crafters from Simona again!

Today's post is all about sewing... :). I love 
combining gorgeous CottageCutz dies and creating
cards. I am always so pleased with beautiful 
results and they are so easy to achieve with 
CottageCutz dies. This time I used


All the dies were cut out of white card stock and
colored with distress ink pads and markers. I use
markers to color the smaller pieces.


Here is a close up photo how I arranged the dies
on the card... :). 


I love using embossing folders on my cards to add
the texture. 


Here is a side view of the card.


I hope you liked today's post and found some
inspiration in it.

Take care and see you all next time.

Hugs,
Simona

Mr. Snuggles Americana Treat Bag


Hello everyone, today I'm sharing a treat bag made for The Scrapping Cottage using the darling Mr. Snuggles teddy bear. He is my Favorite teddy, just LOVE him!!!

I've wanted to use these super darling treat bags I got from American Crafts, they go with the American Line from Pebbles. I also used the Pen Pal line from from Pink Paislee, love both of these. The Super Cute Teddy is Mr. Snuggles and is a CottageCutz die and is dusted with distressed ink, and then I added a watermelon sticker to him. He is my favorite teddy!!!
The Really Reasonable Ribbon works PERFECT with both lines. I LOVE the ribbon for my bow, it reminds me of the american flag, its called "Flag Grosgrain Ribbon", next I used the Mini Pom Poms in blue, and the Lace is Gabrielle off white, and is absolutely beautiful!!\
All the stickers I used are from the paper collections I used that are listed above. 


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

Happy Father's Day


Happy Monday!

Kathy with you, and today I have a Father's Day card for you using HappyFather's Day, and Canadian Goose CottageCutz Dies!




To create my card, I started with a black card base and added a Kraft mat that was embossed with the Square Lattice Embossing Folder and inked with Creamy Cocoa and Java Chalk Inks.  A smaller mat was made with Chance Designer Paper that was matted with Black.

The dies were cut with black, Natural White, Kraft, and Crushed Olive Distressed Papers and inked with Creamy Cocoa and Java Chalk Inks.  I added the sentiment pieces by running them through my Xyron Machine.  The other pieces were glued together and then added to the smaller mat using pop dots.  Then I just added a button with a twine bow.

These are the dies I used.

CottageCutz Wedding Pillow Box

 Happy Crafting everyone and welcome.   This is Carol and today is a project to share with a wedding theme.  I just adore making favors and little boxes for gift giving.  There's going to be a wedding in my family the beginning of next year, so I am in the throws of lots of crafting.  The latest and popular trend is "Rustic" Weddings with burlap and canning jars as part of the decorations.  It can be very elegant.
 As you can see here the white contrast very beautifully with the burlap fabric.  The pillow bow was created with the We R Memory Keepers Pillow Box Board.  It's 6 x 6-quick and easy to make especially if you need to make lots of them!
 The butterfly has been glittered and so has the flower-love me some sparkle on this.  Also there is some silver bling strands on either side of the burlap.  It helps it to stay put and not fray.  Burlap frays pretty easy so you have to think of creative ways to create with it to keep it in tact on your projects.  Thank you so much for visiting and taking a look.  It's been a pleasure to share an idea for wedding favors with you.  Hope it gives you inspiration to create something wonderful for you and your family.  Until next time.....Happy Crafting.  Here are the dies I used:

Angel for baby Girl

Hi, all! Vladka here!

I have one little Angel for you today. Sometimes I like to leave everything clean and simple, as on this card today.

Little angel is a messenger of a new life. With heart in his hands whispers gentle words about life in baby girl´s ears. She hears him. Angels are our friends, but when we grow up, we don´t hear them anymore. So, we need to start listen again. 

This Christmas Angel is really sweet die and I combined it together with some words: Congratulations, Baby and Girl. I hope you like it! Have a great day!

Nana "Happy Mother's Day"

Hello everyone, and Happy Wednesday to all!

Today I have a card I designed for Mother's Day for The Scrapping Cottage. & Really Reasonable Ribbon.


I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this DARLING CottageCutz Sweet Spring Kitty Die. I dusted the kitty with distressed inks and a duster. Next I used copics to color the flowers, basket and all the Expressions wording. LOVE using the new wording, as it makes crafting so easy. Its nice to not have to cut so many little pieces of the alphabet to create words, LOVE this!!!!

 I used the Beautiful Noelle Lace ,  I ran it across the center of my card 2 times to create a lace border. I then used the Pink Gingham Ribbon to create a big bow. Love PINK, and LOVE the Gingham Ribbon from RRR!

Here is a photo of the inside of my card.



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