CottageCutz Baby Boy Shower Banner

Greetings everyone and welcome to a CottageCutz Design Team post with Carol as your host.  Today the creation is this lovely Baby Boy Shower banner.  Isn't this cute for a decoration for a baby shower!  This is super fun to create and display using a variety of pretty CottageCutz dies from the 2014 Baby collection
The banner was created with the Spellbinders Shapabilities Nested-Lacy Pennants.  That is actually the base, but there are many layers used to make it as big as and full as you see here.  For the outside lace edge the CottageCutz Fancy Lace Border was used.  It only needed one cut for each side and one for the top that was cut to fit.  For this banner the Baby Buggy Mini was used along with the Bow Mini.  The Leafy Branch Mini was used under the flower accents.
For the middle Banner the Bib Mini, Bow Mini, and Leafy Branch Mini are featured.  The Baby Boy Shower words used are from the CottageCutz Expressions release.
For the last section of the banner Sippy Cup Mini, Bow Mini, and Leafy Branch Mini complete the project.  The banners are tied together with seam binding and bows are created on each end and decorated with matching roses and CottageCutz Leafy Branch Mini.
Hope you have enjoyed viewing my project for today and it brings you some ideas for creating your own sweet Baby Shower decorations.  This would also be lovely hanging in the baby's room.  Just use different word dies or perhaps the baby's name.  Thanks so much for stopping by.  Until next time, Happy Crafting!  Here are the dies used:

Sweet dreams little Baby

Hi, all! Vladka here. 

Today I have a little bit bigger card for you. Size is A5 and gives you a lot of space also inside, where it is possible to add pocket for money or gift card and for good wishes to new born baby.

I just can´t stop using dies from Baby release, they are so cute and give you so many opportunity. On this card I used two of them: Baby Lamb and Baby Sleeping on Moon. Die cuts are colored with Distress Inks. Sentiment is in Slovenian language and can be translated also as: “Sweet dreams little Baby”.

I wish you all sweet dreams!

CottageCutz Sweet Baby Lamb


Hello CottageCutz fans! 
Today I have a sweet Baby Girl Card to share using the Darling CottageCutz Baby Lamb die. 
When I saw this sweet little lamb I thought how DARLING she is! I absolutely LOVE this CottageCutz die!!!

So for the Baby Lamb, I used antique Linen to dust her in. Then I used copics in pink to color her bow,ears, noes,and hooves. Her eyes are done with the Viva Pearl Pen, and I had to add a sweet pink flower to her hair :)

Baby Girl is cut out with the CottageCutz Expressions, using "Baby" & "Girl" dies.


 I used the Baby Design paper again, but this time its the girl colors. I also added some RRR Buttons, and hemp to make them look sewn on. Lastly I added some sewing, and a big Pink & Gingham Bow!
Thank you for stopping by and have a super awesome day!
Hugs to all,
Cheryl

Baby Welcome to the World!

Today I am sharing with you my new second Baby card I created with beautiful CottageCutz Baby Collections 2014 of dies.

For this card I used "Train Engine and Tender" and "Train car and Caboose" dies form NEW baby Collection and one "Filigree Clouds" die from "Spring Collection".

 

First, I created cloudy background using cloud template, sponge and blue ink. Then, I cut all pieces of train two times using pink and brown cardstock. Glued different  parts of pink and brown together in a cute train.  All images I put on cloudy background and added white die cut clouds.

Oh, also, I stamped sentiment and added pink ribbon with cute bow.

For this project I used:

Baby Hippo


Happy Saturday!

It's time for me to share a little inspiration using a couple of the cute CottageCutz Dies from The Scrapping Cottage!  This time I'm using Baby Hippo from the new Baby Release and Round Mini Balloons Dies!





Isn't this little guy too cute?  I love the little teeth sticking out!  Here's a little close up for you!




The card base is made with Going Gray card stock.  The white mat was stamped with the sentiment, I then added the blue designer paper that was embossed with a folder to the top portion and then some repurposed ribbon across.  The Baby Hippo and balloons were cut using white, plum, and Going Gray card stocks and assembled together inking the edges of the hippo with Gray Flannel Ink.  I used a black marker and white gel pen for the eyes.  All the pieces were added using pop dots. I then added buttons and fiber bows.

These are the dies I used:

Sweet Baby Boy Mini Album/ Page 3

Hello everyone and Happy Wednesday to all!
Today I'm sharing another page of the Baby Boy Mini Album that i'm currently working on for The Scrapping Cottage using the DARLING Baby Collection!

 This is PAGE #3

So for this page I wanted to use the sweet CottageCutz Baby Elephant, Baby Lion, and Baby Giraffe, all from the Scrapping Cottage "Baby Release". I think they all look so sweet together. I did color all of them with Copic Markers, and added eyes with the Viva Pearl pen in black.

For the Border along the bottom, I used the CottageCutz Sweetheart Border from the "Sweet Love" Release. I love this border as it works well with any occasion. 



The little Sweetheart Blossoms are 1 of my Favorite flowers, and these can be found at Really Reasonable Ribbon. The "OUR" is spelled out using American Crafts Thickers. The ribbon I used, and Seam binding are also from RRR! I used the cutest baby design paper, and I love this Design paper, its the Baby Collection from American Crafts. I have LOTS of it....hehehehe

I hope you enjoyed my post for today!
Have a super awesome day!!!
Hugs to all,
Cheryl

CottageCutz Baby Block Card

 Welcome to another CottageCutz creation today. It's Carol Hurlock here with a project share.   CottageCutz has an  awesome baby die release that has some of the cuties dies you have ever seen.  Today this card is showcasing the Blocks and Fancy Baby Corner from that collection.  The Bella Leafy Branch and the Fancy Lace Border rounds out the CottageCutz dies used on this sweet card.
Isn't this Fancy Baby Corner super cute.  Just had to share a close up of the sweet little "Bear", pins and little duckies on there.  It's adorable.  Love the blocks too-they are so versatile.  As always, these dies cut through paper as smooth as butter.   Not only that, but they are so fun to work with!

Thank you so much for dropping by today to view this fun baby card.  Be sure to check out the Baby release.  There are so many cute images to chose from.  Until next time, Happy Crafting.
