Cottage Cutz Garden Gnome (Tomte)

Hello! Today I am sharing a garden-themed card featuring the Cottage Cutz Flower Power Tomte. As I have mentioned in previous posts sharing Cottage Cutz projects, the die-cutting and assembly is a bit like working a puzzle.

I die-cut the tomte pieces from a variety of cardstock pieces, including some to which I applied Distress inks.
I cut the cart pieces with the Puppy in Garden Cart set, adding the Tomte set bird. (The eyes of the bird are microbeads; it was no small feat adding them!)
The assembled pieces were added to a card base on which I stamped the Happy Gnomies sentiment and created a horizon with Distress Oxide inks.

Penny Black Spring Decor

Hello! Today I am sharing a spring version of a card I made last fall with Penny Black supplies. You can see the fall version here.

I cut the shelf, the white flower, hydrangea stem, and vases with dies in the 51-653 Autumn Decor set.
I cut the 51-610 Hydrangea pieces from light-pink cardstock and cardstock to which I had applied Kitsch Flamingo Embossing Glaze.
I cut the bird with the 51-657 Wildwood set from cardstock to which I had applied Broken China Embossing Glaze.
I cut the garden tools, watering can, smaller flowers, and planter with dies in the 51-510 A Garden set from a variety of cardstock pieces.
I adhered the pieces to an A2-size card base on which I had stamped the sentiment from the 30-703 Blooming Sentiments set and applied Distress Inks for the horizon line.

Lawn Fawn Spring Build-A-House Hello

Hello! Today I am sharing a spring-themed card created with Lawn Fawn products. I have shared similar cards here and here. I like cards that feature houses, windows, and fences. One of my favorite pastimes is to look at houses and gardens!

I die-cut the Build-A-House and Spring Add-On pieces from cardstock and assembled them.
I embossed the background with the Stitched Cloud cover plate. I own the landscape version of the die rather than the portrait version. Luckily the bottom of the sky ended where the grass began!
I added a Grassy Border.
I masked the Simply Sentiments sentiment and cut it with one of the Simply Puffy Cloud Frame dies.
