Birthday Wishes!

Hello!  This is Sukie and I'm back with a post for my design team day!  For today's card I went with a CAS (clean and simple) design with a pop of color for the background.

The images were stamped with the Lil' Bluebird Designs Happy Birthday stamp set and cut out with the die set.  I colored the images with some bright and cheery distress inks and a watercolor brush.
The panels for my card base were cut with the Cottage Cutz (retired) Stitched Wide Rectangle Frame and Stitched Rectangle Set.
Once I stamped the sentiment on my card panel, I layered the 2 panels on a standard A2 card base which was inked on the edges to coordinate with my stamped images.
The banner was stretched across the top of my card for a fun and festive look on my card.
Next, the 3 presents and gift bag were lined up horizontally in the center of my card.
For a finishing touch, I added a couple of matte enamel dots amongst the presents.
Here are the products I used to create my card:

Big Top Wishes!

Hello!  This is Sukie and I have a fun and festive project to share.  I'm using the new Circus dies on this birthday card!  

I went with a bold color palette for this card using the packaging of the die sets as a guide.  I put together the Clown with Car using card stock and added a bouquet of balloons in his hand from the Clown with Balloons.  I also cut out a Stitched Wide Rectangle Frame in lime green card stock.
I found the bright and cheery paper in my stash, it added an extra pop of color to my card. The sentiment was such a fun play on words I couldn't resist using it for my card.
A coordinating strip of card stock was adhered in the center of my card base to break up the patterned paper.
Next, I created the frame for my card by simply layering the sentiment panel underneath the rectangle die cut.
The frame was adhered on my card base leaving just a few areas of the patterned paper to peak through.
The adorable clown car was nestled inside the frame.  I used the bottom of the frame as a guide to align the car.
The adorable card will be perfect for my little nieces birthday, I know it will bring a smile to her face!

Have a Wild Birthday!

Hello!  This is Sukie and today I'm sharing a fun and festive birthday card.  I took a break from creating Christmas cards and used one of the new die sets from the Safari die release for this card.

The Safari Peekers were perfect for tucking inside the Stitched Wide Rectangle Frame.  The frame coordinated perfectly with the patterned leaf paper.  Once the animals were nestled inside the frame, I used the Party Elephant die set to cut out the bouquet of balloons and the party hats.  The party hats were added to the lion and monkey.  The finishing accent on my card was the sentiment.

Snowman Cupcake on a Fun Fold

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 edition of the Blog. 

We have four brand new releases in the online store. It's Christmas Part 1 (22 new designs), Christmas Part 2 (21 new designs) and a Halloween release (14 new designs). They are all currently on sale and you can save 25% on the individual dies. Christmas Part 3 has just been released and is also on a limited time sale. This one also has savings of 25%.

Today, I have for your viewing pleasure a card featuring the new Snowman Christmas Cupcake die. This is such a cute die that I just couldn't resist making a card with it. I have a few December birthdays and I thought this would be a perfect winter themed birthday card. So let's get started on some details of how I created my card. 

Design Steps:

I decided to do a fun fold for my card this week. I saw this fold on Pinterest and thought it would be a cute one for my Snowman Cupcake. I started with my card base of 5 1/2" x 8 1/2". I scored it at 4 1/4" and then at 5 1/2". 
Then I used 1/8" Scor-Tape to seal the left section of the card base closed.  
This is the photo of the card base after it's secured with tape. It's like a book-binding. 
Next, I chose two winter themed designer papers for the card front. The larger piece is 2 3/4" x 5 1/4" and the smaller is 1" x 5 1/4". 
I attached those to the base front with double sided tape. 

I cut the snowman cupcake image in colors to match the designer paper. 
I wanted to frame the cupcake image and decided on the Stitched Wide Rectangle Frame. I used the 2nd largest die and cut in flirty flamingo cardstock. It's one of the shades in the designer paper. 
I stamped my birthday wishes sentiment in coastal cabana ink. It is also one of the colors in the cardstock. I used my MISTI and inked 3x to get a bolder image. 

Next, I attached the snowman cupcake using dimensional adhesive. In the frame corner I added the happy phrase. It's from the Festive Birthday Greeting die. 
To complete my card I added some bakers twine and bow in the flirty flamingo shade. That's it for me for this week. See you next Saturday.

Hello Sunshine

Hi! Janja here with you. For my post today I prepared a simple spring card made with a cute duck.


- CottageCutz dies: Daffodil Duck, Spring Grass, Stitched Wide Rectangle Frame Set
- blank card: 4.25 x 5.5" (10,8 x 14 cm), folded
- colored cardstock
- colored ink pads
- enamel dot
- glue, double-sided adhesive tape, self-adhesive foam pads

I cut duck and daffodil out of colored cardstock. I used different shades of Distress Inks to color the cutouts.


From white cardstock I cut a frame with the largest die from the set. The matching rectangle was cut from patterned paper.


I cut the grass 3 times. Then I printed "Hello Sunshine" on yellow paper and trimmed the strip.





Have a nice day.
Janja
