Sizzix and Catherine Pooler Collaboration, Day 3 Inspiration

 Hi crafty friends! Welcome to day 3 of my collaboration with Scrapbook.com to share inspiration for the latest collaboration release between Catherine Pooler and Sizzix! Scroll down to see my first 2 posts!
This release features hot air balloons, kites and birthday banners! There are: 4 die sets, 1 3D Texture Embossing Folder, 1 layering stencil set and 3 stamp sets!
This entire release is so cute! Be sure to check it out.
My kite card uses the Sky's the Limit stamp set for the kites and sentiment and coordinating Sky's the Limit 2 die set. Of course I had to add some flower accents using the Floating Fancy die set.
Like my Hot Air Balloon card, I used one of the pretty papers from the Ombre A2 paper pad for the background and chose the colors for the kites and accents from it. I just love how this turned out! Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great day.

Sizzix and Catherine Pooler April collaboration, Day 2 inspiration

 Hi everyone! Welcome to day 2 of my collaboration with Scrapbook.com to share inspiration for the latest collaboration release between Catherine Pooler and Sizzix! If you missed my first card, you can check it out here.
This release features hot air balloons, kites and birthday banners! There are: 4 die sets, 1 3D Texture Embossing Folder, 1 layering stencil set and 3 stamp sets!
This entire release is fabulous! Be sure to check it out.
My fun shaker card uses In the Clouds layering stencil set for the background, the Sky's the Limit 2 die set for the kite, the Floating Fancy die set for the flower accents and Sky's the Limit stamp set for the sentiment.
The In the Clouds comes with 4 layering stencils. To achieve this muted effect, I used the first 3 layers with 2 colors of ink. The shaker kite was made using the largest kite in the Sky's the Limit die set. I die cut the kite 10 times from cardstock, filled the openings with 2 colors of the Shimmer Flakes
I couldn't resist adding flower accents, so I used the small flower and leaves from the Floating Fancy die set die cut from coordinating colors.
 
I just love how this turned out! Stay tuned for 1 more cards using this collab collection!

This Ombre paper pad is so cute with lots of ombre color combos to chose from. I matched the cardstock to the paper with a pop of dark teal as an accent.

Poppystamps April Challenge - Make A Splash

Hi crafty friends! I'm playing in the Poppystamps April challenge and the theme is Make a Splash. Check out my butterfly card and scroll down for the supply list.
NORDIC BUTTERFLY TRIO AND SPRING HELLO DIE SETS
 
I don't play with water colors often, so this was a fun departure for me. I took out my water color palette and my No 8 round brush and added some colors to my panel as grounding for my butterflies.
Have you played in the Poppystamps monthly challenges before? On the first of each month, they launch a new challenge and to play along you create something following the theme and at least 1 Poppystamps stamp or die. A random winner will win a $20 GC to the Poppystamps store! The theme for April is Make A Splash, we want you to add water to your design! It could be some water coloring, a rainy day scene, or a technique like smooshing, spritzing or splatter!
