The CottageCutz Blog Hop

Welcome CottageCutz fans!  Welcome to our blog hop!  If you arrived here from Carol's blog, you are in the right place.  If not you will want to start at the beginning, The Scrapping Cottage blog.  Be sure and leave comments for your chance to win a wonderful prize from The Scrapping Cottage.  I have 2 cards to share with you today.  My first card features the adorable CottageCutz Jolly Snowman die.  Isn't he adorable!  I am partial to snowmen, I must admit.
I used white cardstock to cut the images and colored them with my Copics.  I added liquid applique to the hats and heat set to puff it up.  Added some glitter for sparkle and sheer polka dot ribbon along with some snowflakes to finish the card.  My next card was made with the CottageCutz Mitten Time die.

I made my mittens match and added glitter to the branches and the mittens.  I think they would make a very cute mitten garland if you strung them across a layout or a longer card.  Instead of the snowflakes you could add letters to the mittens to spell a greeting.  I hope you enjoyed my projects for today.  Now you may hop on over to Cindy's blog for even more inspiration.  Thanks so much for hopping along and enjoy the rest of the hop.

Hugs and smiles,
Janice

  1. Both of the cards are beautiful. Your Jolly Snowman is so cute and I love the bright colors you've used together with the winter background. These mittens are also so adorable and love the colors you've used to create the card. I also like polka dot ribbon on both of the card.
