Hello Flowers

 Hello CottageCutz Friends,

I like to send cards to family and friends with no special occasion.  So today I thought I would make a card just to say hello and I am thinking of you!

The dies I used for today's card are from the new collection.  They are Flower 2Flower 6 and Flower 7.  I decided to make a slimline to display these pretty flowers.

Designer Steps:

1.  Using the following dies Flower 2Flower 6 and Flower 7 cut out these colors of card stock: yellow, orange, pink, dark pink, purple, light purple and 3 shades of green
2.  Use a Kraft slimline base measuring 3 1/4 x 8 1/4
  • Use the Window Slimline and cut it out in black
  • Use the Hello w/Shadow and cut out the hello in black 3 times
  • Cut a piece of script designer paper 3 x 8
3.  Glue the 3 Hello's together.  Glue the black window frame to the designer script paper as shown above
4.  Glue the Hello and the purple flower in the middle window as shown above
5.  Glue the pink and yellow flowers as shown above
6.  Ink the edges of the kraft slimline card base in black 
7.  Glue the flower panel to the kraft card base.  Using the Spring Meadow die cut out 3 black butterflies.  Place 3 small pearls on each butterfly and then attach to the card front as shown below and your card is complete

Happy St. Patrick's Day Pup

Hello Scrapping Cottage Friends,

We have a huge Presidents Sale going on in the store right now!  The sale ends tomorrow at midnight EST time.  You can save as much as 70% on some of the items.  It is a great time to stock up and cross off some of those dies on your wish list!! Check it out HERE.  

Today,  I am using 3 of the dies that are currently on SALE!  The Shamrock and Valentine ScottiePierced Oval Set,  and Spring Meadow.


Designer Steps:

1.  Use the Shamrock & Valentine Scottie die and cut the following colors of card stock: light gray, gray, green, light green, yellow, brown and black. Not pictured is the grass cut with the Spring Meadow die on green card stock

2. Ink the edges of the pieces with matching inks.  Assemble the pieces with a quick drying glue

3.  For the card base use an A2 cream card stock
  • Cut light green card stock 4 x 5 1/4
  • Cut cream card stock 5 x 3 3/4 and use the second from the largest Pierced Oval to cut the oval out of the center
  • For the oval backing cut a piece of cream card stock 4 7/8 x 3 5/8 
4.  On the 4 7/8 x 3 5/8 piece ink the bottom half with green
5.  Glue the cream inked card stock to the light green card stock.  Glue the pieces of grass as shown.  Use dimension tape on the back of the cream card stock with the cut out oval. Then pop it over the grass
6.  Glue the pup to the center of the grass
7.  I added 3 four leaf clovers to the edge of the card.  To give the clovers dimension I used a stylus, white ink pen for the little veins and to soften the white I went over it with my YG03 Copic maker.  I inked the edges of the leaves with a darker green ink.  I also decided to change up the sentiment to make it pop a little more.  Your card is complete

Spring Sheep

 Hello Friends

It is Pam sharing with you today!

I have one more Easter card to share with you today.  I am using the sweet little Spring Sheep die set to create the card.


Design Steps:
1.  Start by cutting a rectangle out of white card stock using the Pinking Shear Edge Slimline second from the largest. Leaving the die in place, to create a nice white border, use a blending brush and some blue and soft green inks to blend out the background
2.  Cut out some green grass using the Grass Slimline die and cut it down to create the grassy hills
3.  Using the Picket Fence Slimline cut it on white then trim to fit the card.  Cut the Tree of Nature die with brown for the trunk and green for the leaves
4.  Glue the tree in the background and then add the fence tucked under the grass
5.  Cut out the flowers using the Spring Meadow die and pink card stock.  Glue the flowers and leaves to the tree.  The little sheep are cut from the new release Spring Sheep die.  I cut them in white, grey, pink and black.  I assembled with a fine tip glue and added a Sakura Glaze black to the eyes and hooves.  Tuck the little sheep into the grass as shown
6.  To finish the card glue to a white card base which measures 3 1/4 x 8 1/4.  I added Stickles to the flower centers. Stamped my sentiment then layered onto pink card stock.  Glued sentiment to the front as shown above and last made some little bluebirds to sit on the sentiment and the tree

3.  Cut a piece of DP dark green 4 x 3 and a piece of DP Script 4 x 3 scallop if you would like.  Wrap a piece of purple lace around the pieces as shown above and then glue to the front of the card base  
4.  Glue down your rectangle of the script DP and then glue down the flourish
5.  Glue the cross to the script DP rectangle as show above Add your little purple flowers to the floursih and the flowers on the cross
