Holiday Cocoa Gift with Tag And Card

Happy Sunday Scrapping Cottage friends! Melinda here with another project share. Today I am showcasing an easy, cute and sweet gift and card set.

Here is a look at my project.

I decided to use some sticker paper for my jar. It is a matte finish sticker paper. I ran it through my Gemini with my die and it cut the paper like butter!


I filled my jar with some hot cocoa mix, a layer of red sugar, some chocolate and white chocolate chips. I then added another layer of the hot cocoa mix and then some more red sugar and the chocolate and white chips. I then set to work coloring out all of the different pieces and then began to layer them.

Here's a look at the finished smore for the jar front. The sticker paper layered very well and adhered without any ripples or bumps onto the jar.  I didn't put a layer of Mod Podge over it, but you could to seal the stickers. I finished off the jar by wrapping some red and white twine several times around the lid. 

Here is a shot showing how I pulled the sticker paper backing off so I can build up the characters.


Here is the cute little smore on the lid of the jar from the Christmas Smores die set.


Here's a look at the card. I used a variety of die cuts from the Holiday CocoaChristmas Smores and the Sweet As A Christmas Cookie Die sets. I cut them all out of plain white cardstock and then colored them with my various markers.

Here is a closer look at them. I used the rolling pin and wrote "Have A" and then the Sweet Christmas sentiment came from the Sweet As A Christmas Cookie die set. I finished off the mat with some of my White Nuvo drops. I added the pink mat onto the largest scallop stitched rectangle die from that set. I then mounted all of that onto a horizontal folded A2 card base.

Here's a look at the cute little tag I made. I used the Holiday Cocoa die set. I colored all of my various pieces with marker after I cut them all out of plain white cardstock.


I cut out an extra die of the cup in white cardstock and then backed the colored die with it. I wrote the "to and from" on there with my red marker.

Recipe Dividers

Hi all! Vladka here!
Christmas is behind us and it is time to rest a little bit, also from crafting, don't you think? December was really busy and before the Christmas I made this recipe dividers. It will be perfect to run each recipe through a laminator, put them between right dividers and take them out when we need them. So, there will be no harm if we spill something on them. Practical, right? And the other possibility is, to bind them in the recipe book. On the first divider is Mrs. Claus. Very cute die and I´m so happy that I have also this motive in my collection. 
On the second one are really popular recipes for Christmas - Cookies
Third one is reserved for hot drinks...
... and the last one for Santa's favorite recipes. This is just one idea and can be modified, so it can be used for all kind of recipes which we use during the year.
So, this is my last post in CottageCutz blog for this year. 
I'm so happy that I had the opportunity to share all my SC projects during the whole year also here and thank you for all your kind comments.

I wish you all happy and special year 2016 with a lot of creative ideas.

Christmas Treat Holder

Hi all! Vladka is here today!
Another post for CottageCutz blog is here and also today I have Holiday Treat Holder for you, but this time for Christmas. 
I created another basket and decorated it with Holiday Cocoa and Christmas Greetings on one side and with Poinsettia and Mistletoe on the other. Basket was cut out of the kraft cardstock and distressed with Walnut Stain and Vintage Photo Distress Inks. All die cuts are also colored with different Distress Inks. Basket was fulfilled with some treats and ready for photo shooting :) 
I wish you all great weekend and good start in new week!
