Happy Friday Everyone!
Today I have a card to share that is going in my mailbox today to a friend who is feeling a bit alone at the moment ...
Sometimes
a little surprise like a homemade card is all that is necessary to lift
the spirits of someone who is not feeling quite up to par ... or has
maybe lost a loved one and just needs to feel loved!
Dies R Us
has a wide range of dies to help you create those uplifting cards ...
pop over and get your order in today. If you're not signed up for the
newsletter yet, you'll want to do that while you are there because they
are always having fabulous pop-up sales and you need to see the
newsletter to be aware they are out there!! HURRY ...
I fell in love with these two Spellbinder sets as soon as I saw them.
You can do SO MUCH with this adorable 'Asters & Poppies' set!
Today I utilized them in a couple of different ways.
First
I die cut them using white card stock ... then before removing them
from the die, I used a small sponge finger dauber and inked some color
on the exposed portions.
Secondly,
I die cut a second set using a very deep purple (looks black and almost
is! lol) which I then positioned behind my colored set to give the
illusion of a shadow. I love how they look ... how about you?
I
knew the flowers were going to be the accent to my sentiment panel so I
really wanted my 'Inspired by Stamping' sentiment to POP! I was able
to achieve this by using TWO of the SIX dies in the Spellbinder 'Majestic Labels Eight' set.
A few challenges:
Alphabet Challenge - K is for Kind Thoughts
Cut It Up Challenge - Word/Phrase as your focus + die cut
Simply Papercraft Challenge #8 - Anything Goes
