Blooming Rose Aperture card.

Good morning everyone,

Sharing my card from Poppystamps blog today..http://poppystamps.typepad.com/

I have created a Aperture using Poppystamps square frame dies..Double Stitched & Pointed Square Frames.

I have used an off cut of waste card for this example: 7"x 7" marked either end and top 1.1/2" in with pencil, made a mark along side the die, I wanted to see if i like the postion and size of my opening for the aperture.

This is the cut out of my waste card, using Double stitched die.

This is my card front Cream with a Pink insert. Look at the top picture and you see how I got my cutout using Double Stitch Square, I cut another one in Pink! as the Pointed squares are a touch different in size.

Using the outer cream card front as a guide, placed a smaller size pointed square and cut in my die cutting machine.

Example above after using both sets of square dies.. The Double stitched square fits on top of the pink square! inside the cream..my largest Pointed frame sit around the outer cream square. hope your still with me on this lol.
Before I adhered these together to place on my card front ..I reduced the size 6.1/2" square ..as I like this better.

Finished card with the pretty open work of poppystamp dies "Blooming Rose" did you notice I also cut a pretty heart trail along the bottom.."Gentle Hearts" Poppystamps border die.

Sentiment by Poppystamps.. Sending Scribbles ..finished with random placed pearls and ribbon.

Garden Bouquet.

Good morning everyone, can you believe we are in May!

Sharing my DT card from http://poppystamps.typepad.com/ .

Unusual card design for me, flat for posting and two colours. finished card size 7.1/2" x 5.1/2"

Do you like the way I have used the Poppystamps "Happy birthday Combo" die..carry on reading if you do.

This is how the die cuts out.

Deciding on the placement where I wanted the word "Birthday" and where to place on the card front..

I have used green card 7"x 5" .. cut a white card piece a touch smaller! I then cut to..left side 1.3/4" wide Right side 3" wide.. As I wanted a green border to show with the word Birthday.

Close up of this pretty "Garden Bouquet" flower cut in green card and a touch of glitter glue with gems.

Finished with a few "Stitched Fluttering Butterflies", rather than add the Happy from the die cut set, I have stamped using Poppystamp Fairy Greeting stamp.
