Something Special for Poppy Stamps in May

  May Sponsor: Poppy Stamps for Die Cut Divas

It's all about Celebrations this month and I've made another birthday card.

Be sure to enter your project to Die Cut Divas by 9:00 p.m. Pacific time tonight. 

I haven't used this basket as much as I should have.  I have more flowers to put in it and even though I chose the colors, I was not prepared for how warm and soft they would turn out to be.  If you like this, in RL, it's so amazing.

It's All For The BIrds

Christmas Kickstart Challenge had gone to the birds, 

things that go Tweet, Tweet, Tweet.

I love how this Poppy Stamps bird house pop up die set works and just a change of paper creates entirely different looks of the same birdhouse. I used some great Waffle House sentiment stamp and die sets to complete this charming card.

May at The Creative Crafters Challenge Blog

 The Creative  Crafters starts a monthly challenge every 15th of the month and I've made a stencil to make a beautiful flower as inspiration for this month. 

This challenge is always "Anything Goes".  
Be sure to join The Creative  Crafters challenge! 

I was inspired by the April 3rd Craft Roulette parameters and decided to make this card with the Brass and Bliss Impossible Card die.  I do like the card stock I found in my stash to make this card.  You know how you feel when something turns out better than you anticipated?  YEAH!

Brass and Bliss Impossible Card die

April and Card Chain Challenge Reveal

 

April  Reveal for the Card Chain Challenge

I think I used one of these dogs on a card before, but I have now used four of these handsome dogs in all sorts of poses with one of the sentiments in the set which I know I never used.  I hope my recipient likes this card as the black background is quite bold for me, but I think it fits some dogs in an abundant array of poses. 

Supplies:
Brass & Bliss Yoga Dogs Bundle (stamps & dies)
Sunny Studio Slimline Scalloped Frame Dies
Copic markers
Starform Transparent Glitter stickers - both the long chains around the black die-cut and the stars

I'm not sure which die I used for the sentiment

Time To Talk About Poppy Stamps and Celebrations

   May Sponsor: Poppy Stamps

It's all about Celebrations at Die Cut Divas this month

Birthdays, Christmas, Retirement. Weddings, Anniversaries, Graduations, House warmings, Hanukkah, Diwali, Eid al-Fitr, Ramadan, Holi, Day of the Dead, Passover, Lunar New Year, Mardi Gras, Oktoberfest, Independence days, Thanksgiving, New Year's Eve, Labor Day, Parties, and Parades.

I can't wait to see what everyone who enters the Die Cut Divas' challenge thinks up and creates.

I had to wish a birthday to one of my sons and I couldn't help using the Corner Store pop up card as my base.  I put a cake on the cart and a larger cake inside.  Since this card is for a guy, I thought Navy Blue card stock would be perfect.  I made a bakery where he can buy any kind of cake he wants for his birthday.
