Welcome


Happy Saturday!

Kathy here with you today and I have a “Welcome” card to show you using 3 CottageCutz Dies from The Scrapping Cottage, the Lamp Post w/SignGrass Border and Daisy Showers.




I started with a card base made from a caramel color card stock and red brick color mat both from DCWV Cardstock.  The designer paper for the background is from Mirabelle Stack (The Paper Studio).  I also used the designer papers (red) for the die cuts along with White, Soft Suede and caramel.  I used Banana Bliss, Mocha Mama PowderPuff Inks and Red Brick VersaMagic Ink to color and ink the edges of the die cuts.

After gluing all the pieces down, I embellished the flower centers and Lamp Post w/Sign with Bisque Liquid Pearls.  I then added a bow using Tobacco Seam Binding with a button and twine.  On the bottom of the Grass Border I added 3 pieces of Brown Micro Gingham that I tied in a knot, trimmed and added with Scor-tape.

These are the dies I used:

Wizard Wobble

Good morning!  It's a beautiful Monday morning, or at least I hope it's a beautiful Monday morning for you.  Lorie here, and  I'm still in the Halloween spirit, playing with my Cottage Cutz Halloween dies.  Today I bring you a card I made for Barry's challenge this month, which is to create a motion card.  I used this cute Deuce the Wizard die, and I popped him onto an action wobble to create the movement.  Old Deuce has the earth shaking with whatever potion he's got cooking up in that pot!  LOL!!!  I also used the Grass Border die from The Scrapping Cottage on this card, as well as the Ornate Circle Frame.

Deuce was cut with white card stock, and everything was colored with Copic markers, however, I did run the die through the Big Shot a second time, using patterned paper for the robe and hat.  Below, is a short video I took, (trying out my new camera) to demonstrate the movement the Action Wobble gives.  

 
It's not so easy to hold the camera and make the Action Wobble move, but at least you get the idea here.  There's still plenty of time to play along with this months challenge, and there's a great prize being given away to one lucky player!  What on earth are you waiting for?  Get out those Cottage Cutz dies, and get movin' with those motion cards for Barry's challenge!!!!   You can find the details here, or you can click on the blinkie in the top left side bar. 

It's great seeing you here today!  Have a good one, Cottage Cutz fans!

"Sew" Sweet & Masculine and Feminine

I have a super cute project from one of our new Design Team members who couldn't wait till her day to post to show her first project. Cheryl Walker got her new dies in the mail and went right to work and wanted to show this card - it's "sew" cute don't you think?? This is from the new
Thanks for sharing this with us today Cheryl!



I'm doing a little masculine and a little feminine today for my post. I used the lawn mower die from last years Summer release and the Grass Border die from the Flower Power release to make this card for my brother-in-law who has a birthday this week. I saw this cute little lawn mower pun on Split Coaster Stampers and just had to use it! (We're setting up a gallery on Split Coast Stampers so be sure to check it out.)

For my feminine card I used the same die (Flower w/stem) that Barry used yesterday to create his projects and I almost made mine a poppy as well, glad I chose to make mine pink to show you different ways to use the same die. I also used the Circle w/eyelets die for my sentiment and just trimmed off the top for a different look.
Hope you like these projects today and be sure to stay tuned for some sneak peeks of our upcoming release as well as the My Little Shoebox dies.
Have a great day!
Kay
