CottageCutz Jolly Penguin Tag

Hello everyone, Today I wanted to share a CottageCutz Jolly Penguin Christmas Tree Tag, using the Tree & Stamp from the CottageCutz Homemade Christmas Gift Set Box, and then the Penguin from the "Christmas Cheer" Release found HERE!

The CottageCutz Jolly Penguin was cut using all white card stock, then colored with copics. Next I used some Flower Soft in Polar white for his Santa Cap.

The Christmas Tree tag is from the Homemade Christmas Gift set Box and  was cut out using green scrap piece of card stock, then I distressed the edges, and used the To: and From: stamp also from the Homemade Christmas Gift Set Box . I then added some twine, and a gingham bow to the top, with a button. All the String,ribbon and buttons are from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

 I left the string long enough to tie to a present for Christmas! Love how EASY this was to make! Perfect too for all your Christmas gifts!!!

Thank you for looking and have a lovely day!

Hugs to all,

Here is another page, using the beautiful Pink Silk, White Sweetheart Blossom Flowers, and Moss Green Leaves Trim .The doily is a CottageCutz die called Tea Time Doily.

On this next page I used more Edna Lace, Sheer Box pleated Trim, and  String Bead Trim, more Sweetheart Blossom in PINK :) and Pink Silk. All links are above as well. The butterfly tag(Celebration Tags set of 3) and Love tag can be found at The scrapping Cottage

Love this next page as its pretty simple and will hold a photo of my 3 kids together.

Today's little Jolly Cardinal Christmas Pocket was designed for

Really Reasonable Ribbon using the Beautiful Seam Binding, Gingham Ribbon , and Sheer Box Pleated Trim! Also I designed my Pocket for CottageCutz by The Scrapping Cottage, using all CottageCutz dies.

 I LOVE Christmas and like everyone else can wait for that time of the year to arrive. However I have lately been on a Christmas designing spree....LOL meaning I'm totally INTO Christmas right now....heheheehe

For my Pocket:

I made my pocket out of the CottageCutz Large Confectionery Bag using SU! design paper. Love this print and LOVE this CottageCutz as its perfect for the HOLIDAYS!! Next I used some of the Red Sheer Box Pleated Trim over the CottageCutz Fancy Floral Lace border. Then I added my sweet little CottageCutz Jolly Cardinal, she is colored with copics, and placed over the CottageCutz Tea Time Doily! My stamps are NEW and will be released on Sunday by The Scrapping Cottage!! There are going to be 21 dies and some stamps in a super sweet Gift Set box :) 

For my Tag:

I used the CottageCutz Love Tag for my tag, then distressed it, and added the Beautiful Really Reasonable Ribbon Seam Binding in brown. Next I layered the Red Gingham Ribbon also found at Really Reasonable Ribbon. Lastly I glued the Button in the center. Bonnie is also Carrying Buttons if you didnt know. You can find a LARGE assortment of Buttons in the Really Reasonable Ribbon Store HERE.
