Flower 6 Thanks Card

Hello Cottage Cutz friends,

Melinda here with you this terrific TuesDIE. Today I am sharing another simple card that you can make in bulk to build your stash.

Here is a look at my completed card. I started with a side folding A2 card base. I used some white cardstock for the base.

I decided to use one of the scalloped slimline dies to create a scalloped edge on the top side of the card.

In this photo you can see how I positioned the die. The cutting edge of the one side is on top of the die cut. I then put the paper over the other edge of the second side so that it would not cut.

Here is a view of my sandwich for the die cut machine. Because the die is a bit longer, I had to use my full size Gemini die cutting machine. 

Here is a look at the finished edge after it is cut.

Because the edge would cause the cover to be smaller than the bottom (back), I put a piece of patterned paper on the inside. You can add a white mat to the right side to write your sentiment or you can use the inside left if using a white or light colored cardstock like I did.

Next, I cut out the Flower 6 die cut from white cardstock. I then cut the stem portion as shown in the photo above. I then proceeded to color my die cut pieces with my markers.

Here is a closeup of the finished flowers. Once they were colored, I adhered them to the patterned paper mat that I put on the top of the mat. I did add some stickles to the inside decorative piece. I also added some sequins scattered for a pretty decorative touch.

Here is a closer look at the edge. It is understated but adds a very nice touch.

I then cut out the thinking of you die cut from white cardstock. I then colored the words with my markers to match my card's color scheme.

Lastly, I added the sentiment to the scalloped oval. I used a little foam tape to give that a little lift.

Here is one last look at my completed card.

LACEY BACKGROUND WITH COTTAGECUTZ DIES.

Hello friends,

This is Anita here with another new card for you.
Summer is at its peak here and the days are extremely bright and sunny ( read --HOT ). In this heat, I am searching for cool things everywhere..cool drinks, cold salads and cool colours. So for this project, I decided to go for cool summer shade.

Here is a card, in which, I have created a lacey look using CottageCutz dies. The CottageCutz Petite dies are so beautiful and intricate that one can create many designs using them. So I have created this filigree lacey look for my card. Here is a step by step tutorial on how I made this card.

             Using the CottageCutz Flowering Vine die , I cut out 5-6 pieces in white card stock

               I cut out a die cut using the CottageCutz Fancy Lace Border die

Using Peeled Paint Distress Ink, distress the top half of a card stock measuring 4.75 inches by 6.75 inches.

                         Score the bottom half on the scoreboard at an interval of 1/8 of an inch.

                               
        Adhere the floral die cuts on the coloured part as shown

Add the CottageCutz Fancy Lace Border die cut along with the negative of that die cut. 

Add two oval die cuts from the CottageCutz Cross-Stitched Oval set and adhere the expression from the CottageCutz Expressions Thinking Of You and secure it with twine on either side.

CottageCutz Cat in Window card

Hello everyone, and Happy Monday to all!

Cheryl here today, and I'm sharing a springtime card made for the Scrapping Cottage using the Darling New CottageCutz dies from the Spring Release found Here!

I absolutely LOVE working with the CottageCutz dies, as they are super DARLING
 and super fun to work with. I really enjoyed creating this springtime card using the super sweet CottageCutz Window w/Cat Die, Vine,Victorian Fence, and the Spring Treehouse, all CottageCutz Dies from the Spring Release.

 All CottageCutz Dies are linked to the Scrapping Cottage Store for easy findings.

On my card I used some pretty Crate Paper Design paper I got from the Warehouse sale last year here in Utah. I layered it, and did some sewing on each layer. Next I airbrushed the clouds using a die cut for the outline. All the CottageCutz pieces were cut in white, and then colored using copic markers. I did add some half backed pearls to the CottageCutz Vine. The border is CottageCutz Sweetheart Border, I love this border, its one of my many favorites from the Scrapping Cottage!

All the wording are from the CottageCutz Expressions line. I used the MOM Expressions die, and the Thinking of you Expressions die,. I just colored them with copics to match my design. 

Thank you for looking and hope you have an AWESOME week!

Hugs to all,

Cheryl
