DT Samples w/Magic Garden Dies (Day 8)

Hello Scrapping Cottage friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit today. This is our last day of DT samples using the new Magic Garden release. If you have missed any of the posts, just look back on the Blog for some fabulous projects and cards.

There are 14 new dies in the Magic Garden release. And for a limited time the individual dies are on sale at 25% off.  If you love fairies, fairy gardens, gnomes and flowers, you will love these dies. 

So let's get started with our projects for today. It's a Fairy garden house theme today.  

Sample 1:  Our first sample today is from Sukie Dhillon. She used the new Cottage w/Petal Roof die and Fairy Garden Flowers die to create this super cute card. This cheery card is sure to brighten anyone's day. The sweet fairies look so contented fluttering above their little cottage.  Her magical scene is framed using the Wacky Stitched Rectangle die. Notice how she placed her sentiment inside a speech bubble. It gives the effect of the fairies sending a greeting.    

Sample 2:  Our last sample for today is from Jeanne Knobbe. She used the Magical Forest, Fairytale Birthday and Forest Critters dies to create a beautiful birthday card. Love the little mouse and birthday cupcake she brought to the house party. The glitter cardstock adds a magical touch to the card. So perfect for a little (or big) girl. Lots of detail with this die but as you can see the effort is so worth it for the resulting card.

Well, that's it for our group posts . We hope that we gave you some ideas for different ways to use these new dies. And, remember you can also check out DT samples on our FaceBook page and Instagram gallery.

DT Samples w/Magic Garden Dies (Day 7)

Hello Scrapping Cottage friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit today. We are sampling DT cards for the next week from our brand new Magic Garden release.

There are 14 new dies in the Magic Garden release. And for a limited time the individual dies are on sale at 25% off.  If you love fairies, fairy gardens, gnomes and flowers, you will love these dies. 

We want to give you some creative ideas for using the dies. Today we have a framed wall art and two cards. So let's get started with the samples for today. 

Sample 1:  Our first sample today is from Janja Albreht. She used the Wood Fairy Door and Mushroom Fairy Garden to create her beautiful card. It has such a magical appeal, and it makes you think that once you open the door you will be inside a fairy garden. The soft glow of light behind the door is a perfect touch. This card could be used for any occasion - birthday, thank you, thinking of you, a welcome card.   

Sample 2:  The next project is from Anja Zurga. She used the Wishing Well die to create another beautiful framed art piece. Check out her other 2 projects here and here. She has given us some great ideas for ways to use the dies other than cards. This one is intended as a wedding gift but by changing the sentiment you could use it for a birthday gift, how about the teacher gifts that we need for beginning or end of year. If you make handmade Christmas gifts this is a creative idea.  

Sample 3:  Our last sample for today is from Pam MacKay. She also used the Wood Fairy Door to create a birthday card. Her card also has magical appeal to it. The patterned paper gives the look of a door at the base of a tree. How else would we get to a fairy garden (lol)!!!

The small rhinestones give a little sparkle to the flowers framing the door.  This would be an ideal card for a gardener or someone who made a fairy garden in their yard. My neighbor has such a cute one in her backyard. 

Well that's our samples for today. I hope we have given you some additional ideas for these new dies. We have 1 more day of DT samples so stop by again tomorrow. You can also check us out on FaceBook and Instagram.

DT Samples w/Magic Garden Dies (Day 6)

Hello Scrapping Cottage friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit today. We are sampling DT cards for the next week from our brand new Magic Garden release.

There are 14 new dies in the Magic Garden release. And for a limited time the individual dies are on sale at 25% off.  If you love fairies, fairy gardens, gnomes and flowers, you will love these dies.
We want to give you some creative ideas for using the dies. Today we have a framed wall art and a card. So let's get started with the samples for today. 

Sample 1:  Our first project today is from Anja Zurga. She used the Flower Pot House and Fairy Garden Flower dies to create another beautiful framed art piece, Check out another of her projects here. She used a stencil for her "welcome" phrase. This would be perfect as wall décor in your family room or guest bedroom. How about as a gift for a new homeowner and don't forget Christmas gifts.  So many possibilities. 

Sample 2: The next and last sample for today is one that I  (Mary Marsh)created, also using the Flower Pot House die.  When I saw this die it made me think of my hubby. He is an avid gardener and has flower beds all over our yard. Friends call our house the "flower house".  I love to cut them and give bouquets to our friends. So getting a Thanksgiving card from us that depicts a flower pot house would not be out of the ordinary (LOL)! I used only sunflowers since that represents the fall season. I also used fall colors for the card.

Well, that's our samples for today. I hope we have given you some ideas for this new die. We still have 2 more days of group samples so stop by again tomorrow. You can also check us out on FaceBook and Instagram .

DT Samples w/Magic Garden Dies (Day 5)

Hello Scrapping Cottage friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit today. We are sampling DT cards for the next week from our brand new Magic Garden release.

There are 14 new dies in the Magic Garden release. And for a limited time the individual dies are on sale at 25% off.  If you love fairies, fairy gardens, gnomes and flowers, you will love these dies.

We want to give you some creative ideas for using the dies. So let's get started with the cards for today.

Sample 1:  Our first sample today is from Anja Zurga. She used the Stone Fairy Door, Mushroom Fairy Garden and Mushroom Garden and created a beautiful framed art piece. She started with distress oxide inks and then built the cutest fairy garden scene with these dies.  This would make a wonderful gift for a special friend or if you make handmade Christmas gifts this is a great idea.

Sample 2:  The next sample is from Janja Albreht. She used the Gnome on Tree Stump and Tree with Tire Swing to create a fabulous card of encouragement. Such a wonderful way to let someone know you care. The stenciled a ray of light around the gnomes lantern adds a unique touch.  Don't you love the caring, tender look on the little gnome's face?

Sample 3: The next and last sample for today is one that I (Mary Marsh) created. using the Wishing Well and Fairy Garden Flowers dies. When I saw the wishing well die, I thought of a bridal shower card and also a get well card. Today I went with the get well card idea.  I used some cloud designer paper for the background. Stamped the get well sentiment and the Wishes phrase is from the Coffee & Cocoa Warm Wishes die. This is a sweet way to send get well wishes to someone that is under the weather or battling a major illness. It lets them know you care.

 

Well, that's our samples for today. I hope we have given you several ideas on fresh ways to use the new dies. We still have 3 more days of group samples so stop by again tomorrow. You can also check us out on FaceBook and Instagram

DT Samples w/Magic Garden Dies (Day 4)

Hello Scrapping Cottage friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit today. We are sampling DT cards for the next week from our brand new Magic Garden release.

There are 14 new dies in the Magic Garden release. And for a limited time the individual dies are on sale at 25% off.  If you love fairies, fairy gardens, gnomes and flowers, you will love these dies.

We want to give you some creative ideas for using the dies. So let's get started with the cards for today.

 

Sample 1:  Our first sample today is one that I (Mary Marsh) created. I used the Sweet Fairy die to send some magical fairy dust & kisses along to my sweet niece. I intended this to be a birthday card and the inside sentiment will be ….and sweet birthday wishes.

Although with the sentiment on the card front it doesn't have to be limited to birthdays, it could also be used as a special way to say hello.

I thought the rainbow patterned paper complemented the enchanted fairy scene nicely and a few sequins completed the card.  

 

Sample 2:  Our next sample today is from Sukie Dhillon. She used the Mushroom House die to create a sweet housewarming card. Her patterned paper choice complements the playful house image well. The sentiment she used communicates a heartfelt message in such a whimsical way. How fun to celebrate with someone the special occasion of moving into a house and making it a home. 

 

Well, that's our samples for today. I hope we have given you some ideas on ways to use the new dies. Stop by again tomorrow for more amazing samples from the team.

DT Samples w/Magic Garden Dies (Day 3)

Hello Scrapping Cottage friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit today. We are sampling DT cards for the next week from our brand new Magic Garden release.

We want to give you some creative ideas for using the dies. So let's get started with the cards for today.

Sample 1:  Our first sample today is from Jeanne Knobbe. She used the Stone Fairy Door die and the Home Sweet Home Phrase (older release) to create this pretty one layer card. She used distress oxide inks to color the fairy door image. The path, grass and sky were masked and colored also using distress oxide inks. How perfect would this be for a new home owner or someone who has just moved. You could also use it as a party invitation just by changing the sentiment.

Sample 2:  Our next sample today is from Pam MacKay. She used the Mushroom Garden die and created a birthday card with a fancy fold.  She cut the front panel in half and added the designer paper. The stitched scalloped square was used to showcase the mushroom images which were colored with Copic markers. The color scheme makes this such a soft and feminine birthday card. The sweet little ladybug is an ideal topper for the mushroom.

Well, that's our samples for today. I hope the team has given you some fresh ideas on ways to use these new dies. Stop by the Blog again tomorrow for more amazing samples.

We want to give you some creative ideas for using the dies. So let's get started with the cards for today. It's all about the gnomes!

Card 1:  Our first sample today is from Sukie Dhillon. She used the new Gnome on Tree Stump die to create this awesome card. The card features a gingham background and a jolly gnome looking so cozy sitting on his tree stump. The white picket fence just adds to the appeal of the card.
It would be a sweet way to send a welcome home greeting for a special friend, neighbor or family member. You could also send a card like this as a congratulations on a new home card. The possibilities are many so let your imagination run wild.

Card 2: Our next sample today is from Jeanne Knobbe.  She used the Sleepy Gnome w/Mushrooms, Magical Unicorn Dreams and Spring Mushrooms dies on this creative shaker card. She is giving us a little peek into the gnomes dream. And, of course its about mushrooms (LOL)! Iridescent sequins are the shaker elements and just add to the charm of her card.
This would make a good all-occasion card or one for someone who needs encouragement to take a chance on their dreams.
