Poppicrafts



I stumbled upon a new blog to me yesterday called Poppicrafts. (http://poppicrafts.blogspot.com) and they are having a card competition with a great prize, so I decided to enter. You had to make a card that had the colors or either green, pink, black or white and couldn't use an image. Mine ended up having all the colors!

I first stamped my card base with Spanish Script backgrounder from CHF in Spring Moss (PTI). Then I stamped the flower vine from Fancy Pants, From The Garden in Toile Pink (Palette). It was a bit lighter than I thought it would be so I decided to use black pen and trace around all the swirls and I actually like how it came out! Next I stamped the flowers again onto another piece of paper in Belle Rose (Paltte) and cut out the flowers and adhered them with demensional foam. With my Friskars Threading Water Punch I punched out the black scallops and with my Oval Nesties cut and embossed an oval. The sentiment is from the Fancy Pants set also. The ribbon is Sweet Blush (PTI) and the butterfly is a Martha Stewart punch. I added some faux stiching and paper piercing and finished it off with some Coffee Ice stickles. It was a fun card to make! Thanks for visiting!
