Whimsical Birthday Wishes

Happy Wednesday! I have a new set of cards to share with you today..

I just love this adorable Mushroom and knew I wanted to use it again on a card set. 

From Jaded Blossom I used our Spring Dies 2, Goody Bag Die, Card Mat Dies, Stitched Circle Dies, Scallop Circle Dies, Stitched Square Dies, Big Eye Faces, and Whimsical Gnomes stamp set.

Thanks so much for checking out my card set today!

Watercolor Birthday Cards

Happy Thursday! I was in need of a few birthday cards so I decided to whip some up and share them with you. 

I watercolored some random backgrounds then used my rectangle dies to cut some backgrounds. 

Then I used different dies to create my layout. I added a heart on top of my coffee mug die, an idea I stole from Tina :) 

From Jaded Blossom I used Rectangle dies, Scallop Rectangle Dies, card mat dies, flag dies, heart dies, birthday dies, coffee dies, and spring dies 2.

Stamp sets I used are Supersized Birthday Greetings and Coffee Break.

Thanks for checking out my cards today!

Here's what I created! I just LOVE this new birch tree die. It's a die that we have wanted for a very long time. We couldn't fit it into the September or October release, and didnt want to wait until next year to release it so we decided to do this mini release hop :) 

I wanted to make a cute little card holder and I thought the tree die would be perfect on the side of it. This card box is new from SVG Cutting Files.

Along with the new Scenic Die, I used Spring Dies 2, Scallop Rectangle Dies 1 and Stitched Rectangle Dies 1, And alphabet dies.

Heres another angle so you can see how the box looks

Jaded Blossom Monthly Challenge: Favorite Stamp Set

Hi Everyone! Its time for a new monthly challenge over at Jaded Blossom!!

This months challenge theme is "Favorite Stamp Set"! So bust out your Jaded Blossom stamps and search for your favorite out of the whole bunch and use that on a project! Easy peasy right?

My favorite stamp set is Paint Splatters! Here is what I created using them..

I cut out butterflies from the Spring Dies 2 and put them on my white cardstock that I cut out using the Card Mat dies. I also used Supersized Birthday Greetings for the sentiment.

I then started stamping the paint splatters around the butterflies so that when i was done I would remove the paper butterflies and be left with a white space where they were.

Here is a close up!

Thanks so much for checking out my project! Make sure to head over to Jaded Blossom to see what the rest of the team created!
