A Little Birdie Told Me!


Hello Scrapping Cottage Friends!

It is Pam creating with you on the blog today.

Just for your information this is the last day for the Memorial Day sale!!  You can save up to 70% off on most of the dies and the new Gardening release is 25% off.  You don't want to miss this money saving sale!

Today I am using the Tomte.  He has many different looks and little tools you can use with him.  I think is is just adorable!

Design Steps:


1.  Cut all of the pieces using the Flower Power Tomte die.  I used yellow, green, blue and white card stock
2.  Using a variety of inks shade the pieces and then assemble using a fine tip glue
3.  Use an A2 white card base cut a piece of green 4 x 5 1/4 and DP 3 3/4 x 5.  Use the 4th from the largest Pierced Oval die to cut out a white oval.  Use the 2nd from the largest Stitched Scallop Oval die to cut out a green oval
4.  With the pieced oval die in place shade in the opening with a light blue.  Also stamp your sentiment on yellow and layer onto green
5.  Glue the DP to the green card stock then add the ribbon tying a knot in the center.  I use a glue dot to keep the knot in place
6.  Glue the ribbon panel to the front of the A2 white card base.  Add the green oval and then the shaded blue oval
7.  Place pop dots to the back of the little Tomte and add him to the oval on the front
8.  For the inside I used the Happy expressions die to cut out a yellow and green happy. Glued them together slightly off center then placed inside card.  Add the Birthday sentiment and the strip of DP to the bottom with the little flowers.  To finish I added some rhinestones to the front and inside

Wishing You a Cup of Cheer!

Hello!  This is Sukie and today I have a sweet card to share for my design team post.  I wanted to create a card that can be used as an all occasion card especially during the winter season!
The Hot Drink Cup and Mr. Snuggles die sets are so versatile that they can be used together or separately. I also used the Nested Stitched Eyelet Oval die set for my card.  The tiny heart was left over on my craft desk from one of my Christmas projects so I incorporated it into my card.
I went with a kraft theme for my card base which coordinated perfectly with Mr. Snuggles and his coffee cup.  I selected a strip of blue card stock to add to my card.
All of the pieces were layered and adhered to my card base.  The die cut oval topped off my card.
Mr. Snuggles and his coffee cup was adhered inside the oval leaving enough room for the sentiment tag underneath.
A triple bow made with some jute twine was the perfect finishing accent on this cheery card.
Here are the dies used on my card, available in the store:

 5.  Using silver glitter card stock and the Princess Cake die cut out the crown and the little circle embellishment.  Glue them to the card as shown
6.  Cut out the Happy Birthday using pink and purple DP and the Happy Birthday die
7.  You can cut out the large scallop easel card using your Circuit or a large 5 inch scallop die.  I used 2 different types of coordinating DP for the background both inside and out.

Easter Blessings

Hello Scrapping Cottage Friends!

It is Pam sharing with you today.

I can't believe we are at the end of March!  And Easter is just a few weeks away.  Time seems to go faster and faster the older I get!  Today, I am using a gorgeous die from the Spring Release.  I hope you can spend some time in our store to check out this amazing collections.

Designer Steps:
 1.  Cut out the pieces using the Cross with Spring Lilies die.  I used dark brown, light green, soft pink and gold card stock for the pieces
 2.  Shade the pink flowers and the leaves with in and then assemble the pieces
 3.  The flower wraps beautifully around the cross.  Add some small drops of glue to attach the leaves
 4.  Use a white A2 card base, a piece of pink card stock cut slightly smaller and a pieces of DP cut just slightly smaller then the pink.
 5.  Use the Nested Stitched Eyelet Oval over second from the largest and cut it out of white card stock.  Then pop the cross up on the oval as shown
5.  Layer the DP to the pink card stock and then glue the oval to the DP.  And before you glue the pink card stock to the white card base add the sheer white ribbon and your card is complete

Bluebird and Morning Glories

Hi, Lois here today with one of CottageCutz new bird stamp/die sets.  It is now available on the website, along with new Halloween and Christmas dies.  Be sure to visit the store and see what they have to offer.  My card today was made using the Bluebird and Morning Glories stamp and die set.



Like Mary Marsh has done so many times, I started creating my card using a Sketch Challenge layout from Splitcoaststampers.  This sketch was from several weeks ago.



Sometimes with brand-new stamps you have a little difficulty getting the ink to stamp evenly on the first go-round.  One of the reasons I love the MISTI is that you can re-stamp an image several times until you're happy with the result.


After getting a good stamped image, I colored the bluebird and morning glories with my Copic markers.  I like to do my coloring while the image is still in the MISTI in case I need to restamp the image after I'm finished.


I then die cut the image and also cut an oval, using the largest Nested Stitched Eyelet Oval die.


Then I cut my cardstock.  The card base is heavyweight white cut at 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4", and the patterned paper is cut at 4" x 5 1/4".  I liked this patterned paper because it picked up several of the different shades of blue from my bluebird.


I then started the construction of my card, adhering the patterned paper directly on the card base but popping the die-cut bluebird on large foam pop dots.


I stamped my sentiment on the edge of the same pale aqua cardstock as my oval and, using a scrap of white cardstock, stamped one of the morning glories, which I colored and fussy cut.


I then adhered the sentiment panel flush with the left side of the card below the oval and popped up the morning glory on a foam pop dot at the end of the strip (where the heart appeared on the original sketch).  And I was finished!


I hope you check out all the new items in the CottageCutz store.   The holidays are just around the corner!!!
