Gingerbread Cocoa House Christmas Tags

Happy crafty Sunday Scrapping Cottage friends! Melinda here with another fun, cute project featuring some of the fabulous dies from the 1st Release of Christmas! Here's a look at what I created.


 They feature the adorable Gingerbread Cocoa House die. It is one of the new dies in this season's 1st Christmas Die release. Now is the perfect time to pick them up! They are 30% off and they are terrific! They will make your holiday crafty projects look fabulous! The two tags are approximately 3.5" wide by 4.5" high. 

I started by cutting out my dies with white cardstock. I like to do this so I can color my pieces in. Here is a photo of my coloring in progress. I bought some economy markers on Amazon for coloring. They are a budget friendly alcohol marker set and do the job just fine.

Here's a look at the Gingerbread Cocoa House
as it is assembled. It doesn't have any glitter, drops or puffy paint yet.

Here's a look at the first tag. It turned out so sweet. I layered the focal die cut piece onto a scalloped tag shape I created. I then used some brown sparkly ribbon for a bow up top.

Here's a look at the tag base. I created it and then cut it out of some white cardstock, red cardstock and then out of some patterned paper I created.



For this one I layered the cute little Gingerbread Cocoa House
 piece onto the Scalloped Stitched Eyelet square die. I also cutout a piece of pink cardstock. I then used a variety of my Stickles to give all the little pieces some sparkle. I also used just a bit of puffy paint on the dollops of snow above the windows and on the handle. For the chocolate I used some of my Nuvo Clear Drops


Here's a look at the second tag. For this one, I once again started with a tag base. I used the same pieces of cardstock for the base. I then used the largest die from the Nested Stitched Doily Set die cut. I cut out a circle from the polka dot paper I created and printed out. I then layered the cute die piece onto the circle mat.
 I also added the Stitched Scallop Rectangle, with the Double Stitched Rectangle Set to the top of that. I will write the person's name on there one I get ready to give them their gift.

Christmas Joy

Hi!

It's Anja here. For today's post I made a clean and simple card in a smaller format. I replaced the snowman from Joy Snowman die with a snowman and a reindeer.

For this card I used:

- Cottage Cutz dies (Snowman & Reindeer, Joy Snowman, Nested Stitched Scallop Rectangle Set, Circle Set),

- Distress Inks and Oxides,

- white card base (10x12,5 cm),

- white card stock for die cuts,

- white pigment ink,

- black pen,

- white pen,

- acrylic block,

- snowflake stamp,

- paper glue. 


First I cut and colored the snowman, reindeer and both letters.

Next I cut a rectangle out of white card stock. I used the largest die from the set. Next I cut a circle out of the rectangle. I used the fourth largest die from the set.

I colored the night sky directly to the middle of the card base. I used Distress Oxide ink for coloring. When dry I stamped the snowflakes on the blue night sky.

When all the pieces were ready I glued it together and my card was done.

 

That's all from me for today. Have a nice Sunday and see you again next week. 

Anja Z.

Spring Cottage Easter Card

Hello Scrapping Cottage friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit with us today. It's Mary Marsh here bringing you the Saturday day edition of the Blog.

The new release of Spring dies  are available in the online store and 25% off for a limited time. There are 27 new dies in the release and each one is cuter than the next. They are perfect for your Easter and Spring card making.

Today, I am featuring the new Spring Cottage die to create an Easter card. So let's get started on some details of how I created my card.

Design Steps:

I started this card by cutting all the Cottage pieces. I used different colors of cardstock and just stuck fairly close to the colors shown on the die packaging. They are such pretty Spring colors. For the oval house shape, I did cut that in white cardstock and then used squeezed lemonade distress ink and sponged lightly.
Next, I chose my card colors. I found a small watercolored designer paper that I decided to use for the cottage background. I liked the light shades of blue. I cut it using the largest of the Stitched Scallop Rectangle set. I selected a medium purple cardstock for a layering panel  and the card base is a light purple.

Light purple card base: 4 1/4" x 5 1/4"
Medium Purple Layering Panel: 3 3/4" x 4 3/4"
Designer Paper Layer: 3 1/2" x 4 1/2"

Stamped the sentiment with a dark purple ink directly on the designer paper panel.

Now that all the card elements are ready, I can start the card assembly. I attached the Spring Cottage using double sided tape.
Then I adhered this panel to the light purple layering panel and again I used double sided tape.
I finished up my card by attaching the panels to the light purple card base. I decided not to add any sequins or enamel dots because I thought there was enough going on with the card. They are my favorite embellishment so it was hard not to add something extra.
Well, that's it for me for this week. I hope I have given you an idea for a way to use this cute die.
It doesn't have to only be for Easter though. You could use this for a Spring birthday or a get well card.
Remember, the new dies are on sale for 25% off. See you next Saturday!

You Are My Honey

Hello! This is Sukie and today I'm sharing this adorable card for my design team post. My card was created with the Busy Bee die from the new release of Spring dies which are currently on sale.
This card was inspired by a selection of fun papers in my stash.  Once I selected my papers I went with a sweet card which can be used for Valentine's Day or as an anniversary card.
The Busy Bee die was used for the 2 bees and then I went with a few of the basic dies (Nested Stitched Scallop Rectangle, Nested Stitched Scallop Circle and Stitched Circle) for my card background.
In preparation of my card pieces, I stamped the sentiment inside the circle.  I also hand cut a little flag to use as an embellishment on my card.
I layered a solid black card base with the patterned paper background.  Next I added the 2 pieces cut with the Nested Stitched Scallop Rectangle die set on top.
The white circle was nested inside the scallop circle and the set of circles were adhered on my card base.
I popped up the bees on some foam dots for added dimension.  The two bees surrounded the sentiment circle and the flag was added as a finishing touch.
Here are the dies used on my card, available in the store:

Spring Flowers

Hi! Janja here with you. Spring is not so close yet, but I can hardly expect to enjoy the warmth of sun rays and the smell of fresh spring flowers.
For today's post, I made a birthday card with spring flowers.


- CottageCutz dies: Spring Watering Can, Butterflies, Nested Stitched Scallop Rectangle Set
- blank card: 4.4 x 5.6" (11,2 x 14,2 cm)
- patterned paper: 4.2 x 5.4" (10,7 x 13,8 cm)
- colored cardstock
- colored ink pads
- vellum paper
- embossing powder - white
- clear embossing ink pad
- craft foam (fun foam)
- Distress Collage Medium - matte
- glue, double-sided adhesive tape, self-adhesive foam pads

I started making my card by die-cutting all the pieces for it. I added extra shading on the cutouts with colored ink pads.



I cut out two patterned papers and with foam mounted one on top of the other.
I cut out a strip from vellum paper and heat-embossed the sentiment. After that, I added Distress Collage Medium - matte only to the side edges and attached a vellum strip to the prepared background.




I finished the card by adding a butterfly.


A new Spring release is available at the online store. New dies are 25% off for a limited time.

Have a nice day.
Janja
