Tag-tastic Poppies

Afternoon All

I just thought I'd pop by and share one of the makes from my Tagtastic class last Saturday. The group of ladies made 5 cards (including this one) and a gift box, and all seemed to go home very happy.

This card was made using a portion of the pleasant poppies stamp, with the rest masked out, onto a card tied shut using the fantastic and versatile scallop tag topper punch. I simply love this style of card, and I hope you like it too.

I would like to enter my creation in the following challenges;

Party Time Tuesday- fussy cutting

Crafting From The Heart - anything goes

Pause, Dream, Enjoy - flowers

Fitztown Challenge - lots of layers

and

Sweet Stampin' - No DP

Thanks for popping by, and I'll be back with some other makes soon.

Poppy Cubes

Afternoon All

I've been experimenting again. I saw some of these lovely cube cards on Pintrest, and just had to have a go, and I must admit I'm quite pleased with the outcome. I also love the fact that they go flat to fit in an envelope.

The base card was gumball green 12" x 12", then the image is Pleasant Poppies (another of my favourites), which I have stamped, coloured the stems, embossed with a texture plate from my stash, before paper piecing the flower heads on. The image was then divided into squares before sticking to the cubes. The butterfly is from the Papillon Potpourri set and has been stamped onto the same red card as the flowers, and has been gold embossed.

I'd love to know what you all think.

I'd like to enter my card in the following challenges;

Milk Coffee challenge - emboss it

Paper Pretties - try a new technique (new card style)

Cuttlebug Mania - let's feel it

Our Daily Bread Designs - shaped card

Party Time Tuesdays - anything goes

Crafting From The Heart - anything goes/use flowers

Eureka Stamps - add a butterfly

The Crazy Challenge - red and white

Anyone For Anya - odd card

and

Great Impressions - floral images

Thanks for popping by, and I'll be back soon
