CottageCutz Blog Hop

 
 
Hi everyone!

Welcome to the CottageCutz Blog Hop for April!  We have lots of gorgeous creations to share with you today using the Beautiful CottageCutz Dies, so grab your favorite drink and enjoy the hop!!


 
 
 


You should have arrived here from the CottageCutz Blog, if not please start there so you don't get lost on the way and miss anything!
 

 
For my creation today, I made a tag booklet with a matching pocket to hold it in.  I used the Large Confectionery Bag to create the pocket using double-sided Cherish Designer Paper by Authentique.  I then used matching designer papers to cut a bird and a birdcage (Birdcage & Stand Die), and some leaves and roses (Heart Rose Wreath Die) to decorate the front. 
 
The booklet was created by using the Fancy Insert Card/Tag using the designer papers for the front and back and cream paper for the inside of the booklet.   I used a Crop-a-Dial to make holes and added some fibers to hold it together.  I then decorated the booklet with the Mini Dress Form Die and added a bow.
 
Here's the back...



 
 
The other products I used: Victorian Velvet and Antique Linen Distress Inks, White Twine (May Arts), Bow-Easy, fibers, and Scor-tape.
 
Thank you for joining the hop today!  Your next stop on the hop is the super talented Olena!  Be sure to leave comments on all the designers' blogs and The CottageCutz Blog to be entered to win!  There will be 3 randomly picked winners!!!
 
Blessings!

    Hi, Kathy! What an excellent way to present a gift of pretty tags or a small story book. The rose die cut is really pretty with the ability to create dimension in the little petals. The bird cage is pretty, too. Lovely spring, feminine colors and a delightful project! Thanks for sharing how you made it, too. hugs, de
