Easter Pals

Hi!

It's Anja here. For today's card I made an Easter scene with these lovely friends.


For this card I used:
- Cottage Cutz dies (Springtime Pals, Mr. Peter Rabbit, Miss Petunia Bunny, Picket Fence Border, Rustic Sign & Trees),
- Distress Inks,
- craft card base (12,5x17,5 cm),
- bristol paper for background (12x17 cm),
- white card stock for die cuts,
- black pen,
- white pen,
- plastic stencil (clouds),
- paper glue.

First I cut and colored all the animals.


Next I cut and colored the fence and the Easter eggs.


Then I decided to add a few trees for the background.


Then I trimmed bristol paper and painted the sky with the plastic stencil.


When I started putting all the pieces together I added a bit of color to the ground.


And my card was done.



I wish you all a nice Easter Sunday. Even though we can't spend it with all our family, we can still find a way to enjoy it.

Stay safe and see you again next week.

Anja Z.

Happy Easter Everybunny

Hi everyone!

It's Anja here on Easter Sunday. Hope everyone is doing well and having nice time with your family and friends.

I have another Easter card for you today. This time with cute bunnies on a sunny Sunday. It's a simple one, with Oxides colored die cuts and background.


This is what I used:
- Cottage Cutz dies (Mr. Peter Rabbit, Miss Petunia Bunny, Chickies w/ Egg Plant),
- Distress Inks (Vintage Photo, Pumice Stone) and Oxides (Seedless Preserves, Blueprint Sketch, Lucky Clover, Worn Lipstick, Fossilized Amber, Peeled Paint, Wild Honey, Spiced Marmalade, Aged Mahogany, Mermaid Lagoon, Broken China),
- silver pigment ink,
- white card base (10x21 cm),
- watercolor paper for background (10x21 cm),
- craft and white card stock for die cuts,
- water spritzer,
- clouds shaped stencil,
- heat gun,
- black and orange pen,
- printer,
- paper glue.

First I die cut the bunnies and the chickies. I used craft card stock for the bunnies, that's why they look rather dark. I colored mostly with Oxides. I used black pen for the eyes.



I used white card stock for the chickies and the egg. I also colored with Oxides.


I used watercolor paper for the background. First I used lighter blue for the whole paper and then darker blue with the stencil.


I spritzed water on top and heat it with the heat gun.


First I glued the background and then all the animals. I thought something was missing and decided to add a sentiment. This time I printed it on white paper and glued it on the card.



So this is my last Easter card for this year. Spring is in full bloom, so I think I'll have a lot of inspiration looking through my window.

Have a happy Easter and see you again next week..

P.S. Be sure to check the sale in the online store. You have time til 9 pm to get some Ester dies for a nice discount.

Hi, Janja here!

Coloring Easter eggs is a ritual in the spring. There are so many fun ways to decorate Easter eggs. Let's see how Bunny did it.


Supplies:
- CottageCutz dies: Egg Painting Bunny, Spring MeadowStitched Alphabet, Miss Petunia Bunny, Just Hatched Chick, Pillow Box Plus, Stitched Oval Set
- white card base: 5.3 x 5.3" (13,5 x 13,5 cm), folded
- white cardstock
- silver cardstock
- Distress inks: Spiced Marmalade, Festive Berries, Aged Mahogany, Broken China, Mowed Lawn, Tea Dye
- Distress Oxide ink Vintage Photo
- Memento inks: Tangelo, Lady Bug
- glue, double-sided adhesive tape, self-adhesive pads, fun foam

Cut out all the pieces we need. Mine are colored with Distress inks.




Cut the same large white frame as the card base. Stamp some stains on it.


Make two holes in the frame, and insert a string. Attach letters on the string.


Fix the frame to the card base with a self-adhesive foam tape or use a fun foam.



Complete the card.


And for the youngest, something sweet. Pillow boxes with chocolate eggs.





I would like to remind you that the new Rise & Shine release is still available for 25 % less. 

Thank you for coming over. Have a nice day.

Miss Petunia Bunny

Hi, Lois here with a quick Easter card.  CottageCutz's Spring/Easter release has lots of cute dies.  I'm using three of them on my card today -- Happy Easter Phrase, Miss Petunia Bunny, and Spring Meadow.   Before I explain about my card, I first wanted to remind you that there is a 25% discount sale on the newest Rise and Shine release in the CottageCutz store, with lots of cute breakfast and cooking dies.  Be sure to check them out while the sale continues.

And now for my card:



Before cutting out the dies, I put a sheet of two-sided adhesive on the back of a piece of white cardstock to make adhering the smaller die-cuts easier.  To tell the truth, I waver back-and-forth between using the adhesive sheets and not.  Either process will work well if you have a fine-tip applicator on your glue for when you don't use the adhesive sheet.

After cutting out the pieces, I colored them and constructed each element.  I used a black mini brad for Miss Petunia's eye.


Then I gathered the supplies for my card base:

White cardstock - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2"
Sky patterned paper - 4" x 5 1/4"
Brick patterned paper - 4" x 1 1/2"
Green cardstock to cut the grass from the Spring Meadow die


I then constructed my card base, adding the "Happy Easter" phrase.  


After slipping Miss Petunia between the rows of grass, I placed the egg on the wall, and stuck the flowers (from the Happy Easter Phrase die) to the stems within the grass.  I tend to work "by the seat of my pants" and realized that the phrase didn't really stand out as much as I had envisioned, so I pulled out my Dark Green Wink of Stella brush and went over the lettering.  I was much happier with the result -- it now glitters!
