Hello! I had the urge to make more of a pastel card yesterday but I also wanted to use the Nested Globes die set and make a shape card.
Well, a long the way, it ended up that the shape, cut to have a fold at the top, from white cardstock that opens to reveal the message inside. Then I decided to mount it on an A2 Wrapped Stitch Rectangle die cut from one of the lightest greens in the Memory Box Lush Green 6×6 cardstock pad.
Fun for a change! I stamped the ‘thank you’ sentiment from the NEW Birch Press Design Kind Hearts stamp set. It’s a gorgeous stamp set! I used Shabby Shutters Distress Oxide for this in the MISTI, inked and stamped 3 or 4 times.
I used the smallest Nested Globes die to stamp ‘Hello’ on. The HELLO stamp is from the Memory Box Peony Garden Wreath stamp set.
I die cut the Memory Box NEW Enchanting Poppy Stems from a white cardstock that has a little bit of texture. Then I inked the pieces with Shabby Shutters Distress Ink for the leaves and stems. I inked the poppies with Altenew Cotton Candy Ink and then a little bit of Taylored Expressions Lavender Glaze ink. It’s tricky getting the right pink to match the plaid paper. I hope I got close! lol
I added a video directly from my phone, I wish they let me change the size but this is all I get for my money!
I die cut the plaid from the Memory Box Spring Plaid Slim paper pad and edged the cut with the same Shabby Shutters Distress ink. Regular Distress ink.
Basically a very non traditional poppy! I will have to do a red one next time!
Last week I posted the poppystamps Grand Whittle Pig card and after I got to thinking it’d make a cute shape card to be used on a gift! So here’s a quick snapshot of how that turned out when I tried it. Cute! oink!
Sure you could ‘doll’ it up too! How about a red bandana at the neck! lol
Another quick video…
Thank you for stopping by today! I’ll be back tomorrow with a Birthday card!
Here’s what I used on this card…

Adorable. So fresh and springy looking. More patterned paper!🥳
The stitch dies make such a difference in the texture!
Oh the piggy is adorable!!! And such a beautiful spring card – love how you used the nested globes this way – brilliant!!!!
Love your shaped cards!
Absolutely gorgeous!!!!
A very neat floral card-such pretty colors!! I love the little pig too!!
Lovely card like the spring colours and the piggy card is so cute. We are slowly getting some spring like weather but more snow on the way for Sat. & Sun.
Things do happen along the way and your poppy card turned out so pretty! I had some California poppies in pink, so they do exist. I absolutely love your piggy gift card! Just the right size and, yes, it could be dolled up in any number of ways. You are so clever with both of these projects!
Both are adorable cards! I love that plaid paper! What a cute little piggy! Thanks for sharing Pam!
The first card is beautiful – that wee pig needs to come live here! She just makes me smile out loud!!! You are such an enabler…
