Birthday Wishes

Hello everyone and Happy Friday to all! Today's card was designed for The Scrapping Cottage using the Carnival Releases.
 LOVE this new Release there are sooo many new cottage Cutz and you can view them HERE :)
I really enjoyed designing this card using the new cottage cutz, and love the little Snack Cart!
These are the Cottage Cutz Ive used today:
Boardwalk Carnival Silhouette 4 x 6( I will be heading to Santa Cruz Boardwalk in CA this week) :)

For my Sweet Cart I used some Black Glitz Card Stock on it and the shade is matching design paper to coordinate with the dp I used on my card. I also added 3 tiny little white brads :)

I really had a lot of fun designing this card, using the cottage cutz dies :). My little "For You" tag came from the Popcorn 4 x 4 cottage cutz, its the oval that was on the popcorn, well I thought it would make a perfect tag for my card.
Here are pictures of the Cottage Cutz Die Cuts Ive used today :) They should all be linked to The Scrapping Cottage


 

Thank you for looking and have a lovely day!
Hugs,

Next I colored all the flowers, and blended them with blender0. for my 3 flowers that are popped I used HCPC3407 Botanical Floral 2 the smallest flower, and then colored with 3 pinks and blended. I used the Irock tool to heat set the gems in the centers, and then foam squares to pop off the other flowers.

For my background Basketweave, I stamped it in Tim Holtz vintage photo and then distressed the edges. For my Bella leaves die cut I used the dark green copic to airbrush it, while I left the diecut still attached to the green card stock after running it through my machine. that way it gives you an outline. Ive also glimmer misted my entire card.

"Sweets" Funky Fold & Video

Hello everyone today Im sharing my Funky Fold card made for The Scrapping Cottage. I used the Carnival Release & the Pink Peony for my small flowers.
I'm LOVING the new Releases they are sooo SWEET! Its theCarnival Release and all the new die cuts are perfect for cards,layouts, and albums :) I LOVE THEM ALL and so will you :)

Here is a picture of the inside, I added some of the borders fromBoardwalk Canival Silhouette, it reminds me of Santa Cruz California, and I will be heading there this month :) cant wait!! I also used on the inside the cotton candy Cottage Cutz and the tickets from Ticket Booth. I figured you could add your own writing on them :) sweet messages... heheheh
For my Funky Fold card today I used:
Ribbon & Leaves are from Really Reasonable Ribbon

For my card I wanted to go with a soft girly look. Not your normal ticket booth, but I thought for a little girl this card would be perfect :) The video I have on the #3 peony is done real easy with 2 diecuts pieces,airbrushing,and a pearl and glue. You can use any tool for the folding of the flower, I chose to use the quilling tool.
f you would like to try the Funky Fold Card, its super easy and fun to make, I have a couple video's that you can view here :) that I did last year.
