A Rainbow and Bit of Green for St. Patrick's Day

Happy St. Patrick's Day!  Thought I'd share a rainbow card and a card with a bit of green today.  

The rainbow card is made with the Everyday Arches dies, and the sky paper is from the Everyday Skies Designer Series Paper Pack, while the rainbow is cut from different sheets of the Beautiful Bokeh Designer Series Paper Pack.  



For the "green" card, I used the Terrific Toadstools Bundle along with the Spotlight on Nature Dies and the Toadstool Gardens Designer Series Paper (from Sale-a-Bration).  I finished the card with some Brass Butterfly embellishments.  





Hope you are having a wonderful day!

Delightful Birthday Wishes Card

 Here is a card made with the Delightful Wishes Bundle -- I used quite a few of the stamps and dies on this one!  I also used the Everyday Arches die and the Modern Herringbone 3D Embossing folder.  







I finished the inside with some stamping and a strip of embossed Coastal Cabana Card Stock.  Should I have die cut the white card stock for the inside with a die from the Everyday Arches as well?

Memorable Blooms Meets Textured Notes for a CASE the Designer Challenge!

I am finally sharing a card that I made, inspired by last month's Stampin Through the Catalog guest designer Nicole (@kreatives_papierwunder).  I used some of the new Online Exclusive products available this month to create my card -- specifically, the Textured Notes Dies (love the detail around the frames of these!) and the Mini Corrugated 3D Embossing Folder.  








The flowers and greeting are made with the Memorable Blooms Bundle.  I used watercolor pencils to color the flowers, using colors to coordinate with the colors I'd ink blended and splattered onto white card stock before embossing that layer.
