Very Merry Cardinal

Hello everyone, Cheryl here today with a Christmas card using the beautiful CottageCutz Cardinal Scene. Super EASY card to make, as it really is 1 layer of design paper, and then the centerpiece with the 1 cut CC die.

I colored the cardinal, and trees, and then added some stickles. super easy! to complete my card I stamped a sentiment and added some ribbon.

Hope you have a super wonderful day, and thank you for stopping by

hugs to all,

Cheryl

CottageCutz Santa List Easel Card

 

Greetings everyone. It's Carol here today. Welcome to another CottageCutz project using the dies from the Christmas 2015 Release.  For today, we have a beautiful Easel card.  The colors Red, Black, Gold and White were chosen for the card from a MAMBI Christmas pad from last year that I got at Michael's.

 

The CottageCutz dies used for this creation are as follows:  Santa's List, Santa Pulling Sled, Poinsettia and Holly, Christmas Greeting, and the Santa Reindeer Border.  A Martha Stewart Punch Around the Page was used along with Gold, Red, White, and Black Cardstock.  A snowflake embossing folder was used in the background and a Recollection Flower.

Isn't this Santa cute.  He matches the Santa List so perfectly that he just needed to be on this card.  What a fun project.  It was quick too as the black cardstock images just speak for themselves!

Thank you so much for joining me today and viewing this fun card.  Until next time....Happy Crafting.  These are the dies used:

Framed Nativity Scene and Bethlehem

Hi all. Vladka here!

Today I have something different for you. I created some "pictures" and put them into the frames. This can be used as Christmas decoration, especially if you don't have other Nativity Scene.  

So I made two: one with Nativity Scene from last year Christmas release of CottageCutz dies and Bethlehem from this year Christmas release dies. I also used Peace on Earth expression die.

Both die cuts were cut out of black cardstock. Background is white cardstock stamped with text stamp and with Iced Spruce Distress Ink. Really easy and quickly made. So, there is still a little time to add some additional decoration and it is perfect if you make it by yourself. So, have fun! 

And you will find one more great decoration idea in this post from Carol - her ornaments are just great!

CottageCutz Christmas Ornaments

Hello everyone.  It's Carol here today.  For today's project share here are these pretty altered wood ornaments from Michael's  They are wooden frame ornaments that have been painted white and then painted with glue and sprinkled with glitter. 

The gold glitter paper has been cut with a oval Spellbinders die that matches the opening of the frame.  The Holy Family die was cut on black cardstock and mounted in the center of the frame.  The Poinsettia and Holly die frames the focal point.

The Angel Boy and Girl CottageCutz die was used on this ornament.  The flowers were created by cutting on white cardstock and distressing with Victorian Velvet Distress Ink.  The center is a gold bead and the Holly was cut on gold paper.  The berries are from a Dollar Store floral pick.  The gold bling at the top of the ornament is a Michael' embellishment.

This ornament uses the Praying Angel Die.  She's so pretty isn't she.  I just love these ornaments.  After I created these I loved them so much I wanted to make more.  But when I went back to Michael's they didn't have any more of these frames.  Hope you got some inspiration to make your own ornaments.  Thanks for stopping by today to view this project.  Until next time......Happy Crafting.  These are the dies used:

CottageCutz Focus Week - Gift Card Holders

Hello everyone, Cheryl here today.

Today is our last day of CottageCutz Focus Week with Gift Card Holders. I do hope that we have given you some inspiration for your gift card giving for Christmas time.

So for my Gift Card holder I did a Bendy Fold Card, and added the gift card to the inside which you will see below. I love making these Bendy Cards and also have a video tutorial that I did several years ago, you can find it here.

 

 

I started with the Bendy Fold Base and then cut out 4 CottageCutz Christmas Dies in white to use on the entire card. I then chose what I waned to color, and added stickles to some of the snow and santa. I used CottageCutz Christmas Eve Night, CottageCutz Christmas Winter Night, CottageCutz Frosty & Friends Scene, and St. Nick Christmas Scene.

CottageCutz Focus Week-Gift Card Holder

 CottageCutz is featuring Gift Card Holders for Focus week which is December 8 through December 15.  It's Carol here today.  For my project, I have created this cute little gift card holder pocket.  It was created with a scalloped circle die and a plain circle die.  I cut three pieces:  a) the white backing with the scallop die, b) two pieces of designer paper, c) folded one of the designer papers over and adhered it to the base to create the pocket.

 Just so you know......that red gift card with the M.......is a Michael's card.....were you expecting a Home Depot card???? lol  For this gift card holder I used the Stacked Snowmen, Poinsettia & Holly, and Merry Christmas die from CottageCutz.  This looks so cute hanging in my tree.  It's a great way to present a Gift Card.

We will be giving away a gift certificate. 
All you have to do is, to comment on each post for this week on CottageCutz blog (between 8th and 15th of December) and one lucky winner will get the gift certificate.
