Make it Monday: Hope Rises

Happy Monday everyone!  Today's post features a stamp set out of the Spring Mini Catalog.  If you have been eyeballing anything in this catalog, you have until March 31 to order, after that the items are no longer available.

After I stamped the tulip vase image from the "Hope Rises" set and colored it, I cut it out so I could layer it onto a Cool Pool "Fancy Label" die cut.  I cut out another "Fancy Label" die, but this time I used Orange Creamcicle cardstock.  I stamped the Orange Creamcicle die with ink of the same color  and my "Canvas Prints" background stamp.  Isn't it awesome how it gives just a little texture to the die cut?!!!

Next I grabbed my "Ink Splat" stamp and my Lavender Fusion IP and added 3 splats to my card base.  I cut a lacy border strip using the "Border Details" die and adhered to my card base.  I also used some White Liner tape to adhere a piece  of "Tangerine Fusion Crimp" ribbon onto the card base.

I love doing loopy bows with our Journey Thread, just wrap it around 4 fingers, grab it in the middle and tie it with a seperate thread! And how cute is that "Clear Blooms Accent" flower with the purple candy dot to finish off this card?  The  sentiment is from the "P.S. Greetings" set. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Two for Tuesday: Favorite Peeps

Hi Everybody!  Today I am sharing 2 different cards I created using the Favorite Peeps set.  These cards couldn't be more different!!!

The first card is a whimsical step card.

Isn't it just stinking cute?  I used most of the eggs in the Favorite Peeps stamp set along with the matching dies in the Favorite Peeps die set.  I also used my brand new Border Details Die set to create the grass and the vines. I can already tell that I am going to get my money's worth out of this border set! 

The second card is a vintage/ shabby chic card.

 

Say what?!!! Yes, this is created using the the same Favorite Peeps set!  I choose to use only the eggs from the Favorite Peeps set for this card.  I stamped them using Cool Pool and Oatmeal Cookie. Totally different look by changing the colors and accessories!

I also used the Border Details die set on this card also.  I pulled out my Doily die - if you don't have this die yet, you "NEED" it!!!  I cut the Oatmeal Cookie doily in half to add some texture in the bottom of my card.  The flowers are made from the Spring Bloom Minis die.  Love how you can make them curl using our Bloom tool.  The patterned paper in the background is from the Vintage Paris paper pack.

Thanks for stopping by!
