Poppystamps Challenge #7 Spring Fever!! =)

Pin It


Hello!! 
I'm stopping in to share the card I've made for the April Poppystamps Challenge #7 Spring Fever!! I decided to create a Sweet Spring Themed Thank You Card after looking through my Poppystamps Stash!! I have LOVED the Bailiwick Background Die since I first saw it!! There are just SO MANY ways you can use it!!  =) I Die Cut it from some Kraft Cardstock and then colored in the leaves using my Copic Markers in G17 and G24!! I then Die Cut some Small Flowers using the Twenty Fifth Celebration Die from Memory Box!! I won this Die during their Winter Blog Blitz and have LOVED it!! The Flowers are just the right size!! I layered them for a FUN look!! Then I added some Distress Ink in Tumbled Glass and Pistachio to some Distress Water Color Paper for the Base of my Card Front!! I LOVE these colors together and think they make the most PERFECT Sky!! =) I wanted to make a Thank You Card, but I didn't want to cover up all of the BEAUTIFUL Die Cutting I created so I thought a Shaker Card might be FUN!!?? I took the Jumbled Thanks Die and die cut it several times from some Grafix Shrink Film!! Then I used my Ranger Heat Gun and added heat to shrink them as directed on the Directions!! I just LOVE the way they turned out!! I added some Foam Tape to the edges of my Card Front and then added the Thank You Shrink Film Pieces and some Pretty Pink Posh Sequins and my Shaker Card was finished!! I REALLY LOVE the way it turned out and I will defiantly be using this technique again!!  

THANKS SO MUCH for stopping by today and I hope you have a FABULOUS WEEK!!

HELLO!!
OMG OMG OMG!! Has this THANKSGIVING thrown anyone else COMPLETLY OFF of their Schedules!!?? Oh man it has me!! HAHAHAHAHA!! I keep thinking today is Monday!! I guess having a teething baby who has kept me up and with only a total of 5 hours sleep in the last three days might have something to do with it too!!?? Any way I wanted to stop in and share the card I've made for the New Poppy Stamps "THANKFUL" Challenge over on their Blog!! =)
I was BUSY putting up our Christmas Decorations today beings we had an AMAZING Day with a High Temperature of 72!! It was SO NICE!! =) I almost forgot to get this posted!!
So I decided to make a Festive Thanks Card that I can use to say THANKS for anything that I may need during the Holiday Season!! I actually spent more time on this Card than I normal like to, but I LOVE the way it turned out and think it was SO WORTH the extra time I sent  on it!! Plus, as a bonus for the Recipient I think this could be put in Frame and used as Home Décor if they wanted!!??

So what do you think!!?? I layered almost EVERY Die Cut!! I've used the Grand Madison Fireplace, Dianna Border, Christmas Baubles,  Stocking Garland,  Small Blooming Poinsettia, and the  !! I also used the MFT Winter Wreath Die and I used a mixture of both Paper and Felt and then I added some Glitter and Ranger Clear Embossing Powder to give the Ornaments a more realistic Look!! I really do LOVE the way it turned out and I hope you'll think about creating a 3-D styled Holiday THANK You Card too using some of your FAVORITE Poppy Stamps Dies!!

THANKS SO MUCH for stopping by and I hope you have a FABULOUS WEEEKEND!!
