Sweet Lil' Teacups

Hello everyone,Happy Sunday to all!
 Here is a card I made using Really Reasonable Ribbon & CottageCutz Dies. On my card today I chose to use the beautiful Pink Gingham Ribbon that Bonnie carries in the store. I LOVE this ribbon, and Bonnie does have several colors to choose from.


Next I used some random dp that was in a drawer. Not sure what company, or what name. But love the prints on both. My teacups are from The Scrapping Cottage and they are absolutely darling, they are called "Teacup Trio". I also made them into a border.I used the Scor-tape to put some of my layers together, I am addicted to this stuff! LOVE the scor-tape, and you can find it here!

The little rose is one my mom gave me, and accents this card and the ribbon!
Supplies used:
Design Paper
Sewing
Hot Glue
Wire for my bow

I want to thank you for stopping by, and hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend!!
Hugs to all,

CottageCutz Cupid


Hello everyone and Happy Tuesday to all!

Today I am sharing a card made for the Scrapping Cottage using the Beautiful dies from the Sweet Love Release! Love this entire release as there are soooo many beautiful CottageCutz in this one too.

So for my card today I used the CottageCutz Filigree Cupid, cut it out in white card stock, then rubbed it in glue and added some SU! glitter to it. Next for the CottageCutz Love Blooms, I cut that one in Pink and did the same as cupid.

The design Paper I used I bought at American Crafts Warehouse Sale, and OMGOSH I got as AWESOME deal on this. Of course PINK is my favorite, but I also LOVE this pattern. Its called "Hello Sunshine Delight"

Next to frame the top layer I used the CottageCutz Sweetheart Border. I cut 4 out with white card stock, and then just glued to the back side of my layer.

Lastly I added some sewing and some sticky backed pearls( I always glue these on) to complete my card.

Thank you for looking and have a super wonderful day!!
Hugs,
Cheryl

Love Treats

Hello everyone, today I wanted to share a treat container designed using Really Reasonable Ribbon. For my container I covered it with design paper, then some RRR Lace in Camille, for the ends of the container. Next I made some bows using the Really Reasonable Ribbon Red Gingham ribbon.

To attach everything I used the 1/4" scor - tape that Bonnie carries. I love using this as it really holds the dp to your projects.


The circles were punched using some punches, and then I used some Red Glitter Thickers from American Crafts, and the Design Paper is XOXOXO from American Crafts too!

The darling CottageCutz Love Birds are from The Scrapping cottage and are super sweet!! 

I recycled this container, and it was given to me in a swap, with a tag hanging. However I thought adding some dp, ribbons,lace, and die cuts would be super cute. And it still has the candy kisses inside....hahahah NOPE I didnt eat those yet.....LOL

Thank you for looking and have a super wonderful day!!
Hugs to all

Really Reasonable Ribbon January Hop

Hello everyone and Welcome to 
♥♥♥Really Reasonable Ribbon's♥♥♥
January Hop!
You should have arrived here from Nicoles Blog If not you will want to start out at the Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog so that you wont miss anything.

I hope you have enjoyed our Hop so far today as there is a LOT of inspiration using the Beautiful January Ribbon Kit from Really Reasonable Ribbon. I just LOVE all the ribbons in this months assortment! Of course I LOVE every month.
Today's Project is a 12 x 12 page, but its separated into 4 /6 x 6 squares. This one page will be added to my youngest daughters album that I am currently working on. I am trying to get 3 albums done for my 3 grown kids. That way I can give them to them to keep.

For this page I used some of the ribbons in this months super darling assortment, then I also used the lace that comes in this pack too. LOVE the colors, and I also used some super darling design paper that I got at American Crafts.

I miss when they were young, they were soooo much fun and super cute!!! Love seeing all the old photo's of them. 

So for the top 2 squares, I did the title 1997
Next I added a photo and some ribbons to the photo square. The flower is a American Crafts flower, and the sticker is too. I did make a tiny bow to add to the top using the ribbon assortment for this month.
 For the next 2 squares I left the one plain, but added a tag from the Little Bo Peep collection, then added some border punch pieces to it. again for the photo page one I did border, lace, and then another one of the darling flowers, and a sweet sticker. Super cute and fun to make!

Your NEXT stop on the HOP is Jenn's Blog , Thank you so much for joining us this month, and hop you enjoyed all the inspiration from the DT so far!

 hope you had fun!!
Hugs to all,
Cheryl

Cupids Love


 Hello everyone, hope you all are doing well! Time to get ready for Valentine's Day. It will be here before we know it! The CottageCutz NEW "Sweet Love" Release is perfect for Valentines Day or any day! 

On my card here I used the beautiful CottageCutz Sweet Love Frame, to frame out the Filigree Cupid, and Love Blooms die cuts.


 I cut out my CottageCutz Filigree Cupid with the matching design paper in blue. Next I used glitter to cover him, I thought it would give a sweet glittery look to him :) For the CottageCutz Love Blooms heart, I used the same dp, but used the back part of it. and then colored over it with copic. Next I used some micro bead/glitter to cover the blooms of the heart. The CottageCutz Sweet Love Frame was  cut using the Brown Card Stock.

*CottageCutz Sweet Heart Border*
 I love how this border works perfect to do a border around the page. I think its design is absolutely Beautiful, and made it super easy for me to frame my card. I love this when borders work in many different ways! I also used it as a border on the front of my card.

(The Bow)
My bow is a double bow made using Really Reasonable Ribbons beautiful Satin Polka Dot in Pink! I also used the flower from RRR as well. All can be found Here!

Supplies Used:
Glitters
Dp/ Crate Paper from American Crafts
Ribbon & Flowers/ Really Reasonable Ribbon
