Easter Blessings For Stamping With Friends Blog Hop

Hello My Stampin' Friends,

Welcome to our Stamping With Friends Blog Hop!

For my project, I have created a Fun Fold with the Everyday Arches Dies.

I admit, I found this card online and CASE'd it the first chance I had.

I do not remember who the original creator was so, if you know, 

please share.  I'd love to give credit where credit is due!

I used the Everyday Arches to create a window in the card front and then inserted a card that was created with the same size Arch die.

The Arch-shaped card is attached to the inside of the main card

so that it can "open" through the window.

You can do this with any shape you have in your collection.

But I'm addicted to these arches.

I did not have the Faith Collection Bundle at the time I created this card

( I do now though! )

so I created my cross with strips of embossed Basic White cardstock and embossed them with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder - which is 50% Off right now in my Online Store!

I really like the subtle glow that blending some Lemon Lolly ink behind the Cross created.

What do you think?

Is this a card you'd like to try?

Welcome To Our March Team Blog Hop

Hello My Stampin' Friends,

Welcome to our Team Easter Blog Hop!

My card features my (currently, lol) Favorite DSP:

the Floral Delight 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper.

I have loved this paper since Pre-Order.

It is the perfect Spring paper.

Don't you think?

I chose this gorgeous pattern 

that reminds me of the Forsythia bushes 

we had in our yard at my childhood home.

I loved those bushes when they bloomed. 

So pretty!

It also resembles the Carolina Jessamine 

that we have growing here in South Carolina.

I adhered a piece of the DSP to a Lemon Lolly card base.

I had an Everyday Arches panel, also in Lemon Lolly,

leftover from another project and that launched the idea for my card.

I layered a Basic White arch, cut from the Garden Meadow Dies,

and embossed with the Exposed Brick Embossing Folder,

on top of that and added it to the card front with Dimensionals.

I used my paper trimmer to cut woodgrain strips, 

from the Country Woods DSP pack, 

and layered them together to form a Cross.

I draped the cross with 1/4" White Ribbon

and added it to the arches with Dimensionals.

My Easter Greeting is from the (retired) Daffodil Daydream stamp set

but I'm sure you have an Easter greeting in your collection.

For my inside panel, and the envelope,

I chose an image from the (retired) Tropical Chic stamp set.

You could easily use the (current) Faith Collection for the same effect.

What do you think?

Floral Delight Pop-Up Cross Easter Card

Hello My Stampin' Friends, today I have an amazing Pop-Up Cross Easter Card for you. With Easter coming up, I wanted to get started on my cards for our shop.  I had been seeing so many versions of this Pop-Up Cross that I set out to design one that would work for our customers. I just love how my vision turned out. I chose to add my Pop-Up Cross to a regular card front so it will stand up on display. Would you like a Video or Tutorial? Leave me a comment so I can see if I should do one for you. For the card I am sharing with you, I chose the Floral Delight Designer Series Paper. The bright colors scream Spring.

My card also fits-in with the current

Tic Tac Toe creative Challenge.

I followed a diagonal line with

Bright Colors, Spring, and a "Free" Block.

I hope they enjoy my card.

You can visit the Challenge here:

for this card, below.  

It includes links to each item and you can print it as well.

Please note: The die I used for the Fern is retired but you can easily substitute something from your collection or from my Online Store.

The die I used came from the Tropical Layers Dies and the stamped fern is from the (retired) Tropical Chic stamp set.

Floral Delight Criss-Cross Pocket Card For Paper Players Challenge

Hello My Stampin' Friends!

I have CASE'd my CASE and created another Criss-Cross Gift Card Pocket card. This time in sunny yellows.

I am playing with The Paper Players Challenge and paying homage to LeAnne's card - as I never would've seen her card if not for this challenge. I hope she is honored by how obsessed I've become with her card.

Here is the Challenge:

Spring Flowers

Here is my Card:

The Delightful Wishes Bundle, and coordinating Floral Delight DSP,  called to me the second I turned to the page in the Mini Catalog.  Some of the floral images took me back to the Forsythia Bushes that we had in my childhood yard in Massachusetts.  They were so pretty when they bloomed.  They also remind me of the Carolina Jessamine that grows wild here in South Carolina. 

As with yesterday's card, the Gift Card will tuck into the strip of DSP at the bottom of the Arch Panel.

I wish you could see how beautiful this is in person.

I've been challenged to try to get a good photo of it.

Stay Tuned-In to my Blog as I know I have more of these coming, 

and I'm working on the Tutorial.  I may even be able to get a video out as well.  Let's see how the week goes.

I have provided a complete project supply list, 

for this card, below.  

It includes links to each item and you can print it as well.
