Good Morning Scrapping Cottage Friends!

Today, I am making a card that will be a big hit with my little 2 year old nephew.  He loves bright colors and ducks so this card fits both of his favorite things except that it is a little girl duck! But at his age it really makes no difference!!  Also we have a new release called Magical Fantasy!  And believe me it is Magical and so darling.  It is 25% off in our stores so don't miss out!  I can't wait to make cards with it.

Design Steps:

 1.  Cut out the duck and accessories using: the Rainy Day Duck die, orange, blue, yellow, black card stock and Polka Dot DP

 2.  Use your favorite inks to shade and highlight the pieces

 3.  I had some pre-embossed square cards that I decided to stop hoarding!  They have really cute envelopes to match.(Lasting Impressions) I assembled the cute little duck and umbrella

 3.  Glue down the puddle and then the duck.  I placed a pop dot behind the umbrella for some dimension and then glued down the splashes

 4.  On the inside of the card I layered a piece of DP behind the white then glued that inside

 5.  I made another umbrella and assembled it

6.  Then glued the umbrella to the inside of the card and add your sentiment to the front of the card

Tea for Two!

Good Morning Blogging Friends!

Today,  I am posting a card for a friend.  I am getting ready to move cross country and it is always hard to leave good friends.  So needless to say I will be making a number of these cards.  We are moving from South Carolina to Nevada!!  It is going to be a stressful couple of weeks I am sure!

Designer Steps:

 1.  Using the Spring Teapot & Cups die cut all of the pieces out of light pink

 2.  Use your favorite markers to color the flowers, trim and leaves.  Shade the pieces and then assemble

 3.  I used tiny rhinestones for the centers of the flowers on the cup and teapot

 4.  Use a white A2 card base and a piece of light pink card stock cut slightly smaller then the base. Then I cut two pieces of DP 3 x 4

5.  Glue the pink to the card base and then add the two pieces of DP.  Use the Tea Time Doily die and cut it out of white card stock then cut it in half

6.  Glue the white doily as shown and add a piece of satin ribbon between the two pieces of DP.  Pop the teapot and cups to the front and then add the sentiment

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

Easter Wishes - Scrapping Cottage

Good Morning Friends!

The weather here in South Carolina has been just beautiful! Not to hot and not to cold! I love to walk in this kind of weather.  The only bad part is the biting bugs are starting to appear.  And the mosquitoes love me! They even get me through my clothes! Oh well on to the card for today.  I have a bunch more Easter cards to make so let's get started on this one.  I used a couple of dies from the new Spring Release.

Design Steps:

 1.  Use an A2 purple card base, cut a piece of white card stock 3 x 5 1/4, use the Fancy Floral Lace Border die and cut it out of white card stock

 2.  Glue the border to the white piece of card stock as shown above

 3.  Glue the white card stock with the border die to the purple card front

 4.  Use purple card stock and cut out the Easter wishes using the Bunny Kisses & Easter Wishes die

 5.  Use the Peeking Egg Bunny die and cut out all of the pieces several times using green, purple, blue, pink, yellow and gray card stock

 6.  Shade the different pieces and color the nose and eyes black using a maker.  Then start to assemble all the pieces

 7.  Pop dot the bunny to the left side of the card and glue the Easter Wishes to the right side of the card as shown above.  I decided to add some small black rhinestones to the eyes for some dimension
