Happy Thanksgiving, Welcome Holidays, Bring on the Sales!


Hi Everyone, it's Lori here today on gobble, gobble day.  I hope all of you have plans to be with friends and family this weekend and celebrate everything we have to be thankful for.  I heard a little saying not to long ago about if you had tomorrow everything that you had thanked God for today, what would you have?  I know my list would honestly be to long to name.  One thing I am thankful for is the wonderful design teams I'm able to serve on.  Scrapping Cottage has been so good to me and I feel so blessed to have been able to be on it with my best friend and sister Gini...yeap, I'm truly grateful. 



Today I created a simple holiday card using Whimsical Tree.  I always think of Dr. Seuss for a little whimsy and pink and green...Go figure.  I love how our dies help you create really unique cards in no time, so simple but really eye catching.  I know I would love to get a card like this in the mail. 

I hope you gets lots of holiday shopping done this weekend and be sure to check out our sale.... and we don't even have lines you have to stand in.  You can get dies up to 50% off...so you'll want to check it out.  It's a great time to pick up some holiday gifts for you, your family and friends and then a little more for you, LOL. 

Have a blessed weekend and I'll see you soon.

Hugs,

Be Merry

Good morning!  Lorie here today to share a "less is more" card, if you will.  I had some pretty ribbon and flourish embellishments picked out to put with this die cut image, but after choosing this paper that acted as a beautiful canvas background I just couldn't add those embellishments.
 
Using the Cottage Cutz Whimsical Tree die, I cut the image with white card stock, assembled, then colored with Copic markers.  The rhinestones were all added by hand, and on the star, I added some Stickles for sparkle
 Here's a closer look at the detail and sparkle.  Quick, simple, and outside of the box for me, because I do love my ribbon and embellishments.  Not this time, though.  Less is sometimes very beautifully... more.  So happy you could drop by today.  Have a blessed day!
