Happy Mother's Day

Hello everyone,

It's Donna here sharing another beautiful card using the CottageCutz dies!  How many of you have made your mother a card and mailed it? Not me, but we still have about two weeks to get it out. Now onto my card.
  • Card base  is an A2 (4 1/4 x 5 1/2)
  • Top layer is 4 1/4 x 5 1/2
  • Center pieces are 4 1/4 x 1 1/2 
I die cut the two butterflies and pieced them together. I cut out two circles from the cross-stitched circle dies.  I used the 5th and 6th circles.  The larger circle is with the blue butterfly and the smaller is with the pink butterfly. I adhered them to my card with a glue dot and added my butterflies. I die cut the Happy and Mother's Day out with black cardstock, added some clear wink of stella then used liquid glue to adhered them to my card. I finished my card off by adding some sequins.

Vintage card with Wreath, Butterfly and Bow

Hi! Vladka here. Today I have vintage card with wreath for you. You know how I like to combine old and new dies and I will show you how you can create this one.  Let's start!


Basics:
Card base: 4 1/4 x 6 inches (cut 4 1/4 x 12 inches, fold in half)
Additional piece of kraft cardstock: 3 3/4 x 5 1/2 inches
Some white and red cardstock scraps to cut out the die cuts 

Other Supplies:
CottageCutz dies: listed below
Cardstock: kraft cardstock
Distress Ink: Brushed Corduroy, Gathered Twigs, Aged Mahogany, Peeled Paint

Other:  text stamp (optionally), scissors, paper trimmer, Sizzix machine, scor-buddy, brush, white watercolor tube paint or you can use acrylic paint instead, piece of sponge, pencil or any other tool with round handle.


Let's prepare everything first:

1. With the Floral Spray die and Laurel Wreath cut greenery out with some white (I actually used light gray one) cardstock. Color greenery with green ink.
2. With the Expressions Thank youLisbeth Butterfly and Build a Bow die cut out the Butterfly, Thank you expression and pieces to create the bigger Bow. Distress all the edges with Aged Mahogany distress ink.
3. With Build a Grapevine wreath die cut out two wreaths and color them with brown ink.
4. Stamp text on additional piece of kraft cardstock - this step is optional.
5. Use a sponge to gently color the edges of all die cut pieces and edges of additional piece of kraft cardstock with white watercolor paint straight from the bottle. You can also use white acrylic paint. Let them to dry.
6. Before glue bow together, curve bow edges with pencil or any other tool with round handle as shown on the photo.


7. After bow is finished, put pencil also through the both loops which will give them beautiful round look (as shown on the photo).


Preparations are now finished. Let's make the card!

Apply adhesive on the back side of additional piece of cardstock and add it on the card base. On the front of the card, glue both wreaths, all the greenery, butterfly, bow and the sentiment as shown on the photo. Card is finished.


Have fun creating!

Love you More!


Hello everyone, Cheryl here with another post using the Beautiful CottageCutz Dies from the Birthday Release.

I had so much fun creating my card for today. I did the panels for layering, and then added the frames for additional layering on my card. I LOVE layers, and anytime I can add tons, I do :) hehehe
Products used to create my card are listed below :)
Lacey Rose die, and airbrushed it using Copic markers. For the centers I used a glitter, and some old pearls. I did cut these out in white card stock, and cut 4 of them, so I could layer for a 3-D look

Butterfly Lisbeth was cut in a pink card stock, and a blue pattern paper, layered and I did add some pearls to it as well.

Basics Rectangle stitched frames-  I use the basics to cut the white, and red pieces, I also used the Rectangle for the blue polka dot layer too.

Embellishments- Red polka dot ribbon, old button, twine, pearls, Stamped sentiment,and sewing to complete my card for today.
