Celebration Balloon Collage.


Good morning everyone, sorry been missing a while, I have been so very  busy.

Sharing my "A New Arrival card" from  http://poppystamps.typepad.com/  today.





How cute is this Stitched Elephant die from Poppystamps,  it does say stitched! when you cut out it leaves stitching on the negative card, I did not want to use that as I wanted a flying Elephant lol. with these balloon.


I wanted some detail around this "Celebration Balloon Collage" oval..I have no oval die that I could make a frame with the same size! I left  the die in place after running through my die cutting machine, using a fine tip pen I drew dashers & x`s .. also did this technique on my main card shape. 
I used pro markers to colour these balloons. I raised this card topper with 3d foam tape.




For my multi colours on my text and string ribbon bow, I drew lines onto waste card with pro markers colours as shown, using dies ran through my die cutting machine.



Coloured elephant with grey pro markers, shaped and used foam tape to attach as shown.. random sparkly gems. finished card  6.1/2" x 5.1/2" size.



Thank you for stopping by..Pam ...

Good morning everyone, today I am sharing my card from Poppystamps blog  
We are having a blog blitz, showcasing the dies from Spring release.. 

Please comment on Poppystamps  blog to be in with a chance to win this beautiful die set.
Stitched Butterfly Trio...



Dont you just love the stitched detail on these beautiful butterflies.  all they need is a bit of shaping and a gem/pearl. 


To get the potions where I wanted my butterflies to go, I first die cut onto white card with Poppystamps "Leafy Breeze" die,  I wanted it to be at the right hand side, after I cut this in my die cutting machine, I trimmed my card piece. 



















This is how I arranged my top butterfly, you can also see Tonic Jewell Drops dotted around the background.




I have also used from the New Release "Thank You Streamer " I cut this a darker shade of green. Also used this color in my floral arrangement to left corner, Freida Leaf with   Daisy Cluster  and one  small butterfly.
