Hi everyone! Just wanted to share some cards that I came up with after playing around with the poppystamps Weeping Willow dies. This first one is using my Embedded dies technique…HERE’S the video for how to do it.
This die has more waste to remove than the die I used in the video but I love how it turns out. My pictures don’t do it justice…rainy day…
Use the release paper from the Scor-tape to hold the cut in the die while you’re removing the little waste pieces…
Linking to the Seize the Birthday Challenge – Birds, Bees or Butterflies
The next picture is an iPhone photo and before I added the bird but I like how it shows the detail when it’s laying flat.
The happy birthday sentiment is from the Ornamental Butterflies stamp set. A simple but elegant look.
For this Happy Summer card, I used both the poppystamps Weeping Willow dies, the Memory Box Summerville Landscape die and the sentiment from the poppystamps Flower Patch stamp set.
And the last one for today…
The Weeping Willow die again, the butterflies from the Ornamental Butterflies stamp set and the Fancy Hello die.
The pattern paper is an old Memory Box pattern that isn’t available anymore. Sorry about that. I just thought I’d have a try at using a pattern paper for a change! lol
I’ll add some links below… Happy 4th of July weekend and thanks for taking the time to stop by and look!
p.s. Memory Box and poppystamps Christmas cards coming soon. Working on cards for classes but I’ll make some to share here too!

So much cuteness for one day!!!!! Just when I think I don’t need any more dies!!!!
Woza! These are all fabulous! I love the simplicity of the design, yet it’s a card that looks like it was very labor intensive! Well done, dear friend – keep the masterpieces coming!!!
Very nice. I like the all. Can’t choose which I like better. Very clean and perfect.
Pam these are all beautiful – the layered one is just spectacular!!
All of these are really pretty! The picture taken with your cell is actually excellent. That’s a lovely die & your cards are wonderful!
Pam I just love your die cut cards! They are so pretty! I love the card with the layered Weeping Willow die cuts. Gorgeous! 🙂
These are all three gorgeous! And wow on the iPhone photo! It’s amazing! If I have to pick a favorite, I think I like the last one the most! That is really stunning! But I seriously love them all! 🙂
Awesome cards. Love the iPhone card as it really shows the details. I can imagine myself sitting under the tree and just dreaming on a lovely summer day! Thanks for the inspiration.
Summer under a willow tree—–awesome !!!
Love the cards and the video was so helpful….would never have thought to do the “embossing” step…very clever of you. I happen to have the same dies you used in the video and I’m going to practice this process using them….I love those poinsettia dies so much and any way to make using them easier is much appreciated. I do use the wide double adhesive tape as well as the double sided adhesive sheets and Stick It sheets, but recently I’ve been getting re-acquainted with my Xyron machines….I just run my cardstock through the Xyron making sure it’s wide enough for whatever dies I’m going to use, then I die cut it. Guess there’s more than one way to skin a cat…LOL
Thanks for such great tips….
Love that die – you have made some super cards with them!!

Hi Pam, the Weeping Willow Die is beautiful. I just have to have it. All of these cards are so beautifully made and perfect for summer and so pleasing to the eye. They make me want to sit under the willow tree and have a nice picnic. Love these cards! Thanks Pam for sharing this wonderful new die and your clever layouts! Happy 4th of July!

All three are beautiful and that tree die is fabulous! Love the detail on the iPhone picture. Thanks for playing along with us at Seize the Birthday!
Wow, I am not sure which one I love the best, but I love them all. If I had to choose, it woudl be the one where you used the dies twice. So different and unique, a real stand out card. Thanks for joining us at Seize the Birthday. Barbara DT Member
