I posted this on my class page (tab for that page under the blog header) but thought I’d post it here since this class is this Saturday! 10 a.m. at the Craft and Hobby Store in Ottumwa, Iowa. Give the store a call…we’d LOVE to have you! : )
A happy Spring scene using all Memory Box and Poppystamps dies and card-stock. Makes a gal want to go live here! Imagine…gingham grass and polka dot butterflies!
I used parts of a couple dies… the leaves in the tree are from the Lavish Branch die and the grass is just the scallop part of the Spring Border die with the flowers cut off.
I die cut the Lamp post frame out of Vanilla Bean card-stock and the Debutante background is die cut out of Water card-stock.
The Lavish Branch is die cut from the Lime Green Gingham and the Cranberry Dots Card-stock. I cut the red flowers off and glued them on top of the Lime Green flowers with Tombow Mono Multi glue.
The little butterflies are from the new Dancing Butterflies die.
I used a woodgrain stamp to make the wood grain on the tree trunk…
Thanks for stopping by today! I appreciate it! I’ll be back tomorrow with another Memory Box card.
So excited to share an Easel card with you today… it’s a multiple easel, Easel card! I love working with Memory Box and Poppystamps dies and papers…to really see the card well in the video, change the ‘gear’ to HD and click the full screen. It’s so much better BIG! : ) This was my 3rd take… the first two…well, I got the measurements and names right but messed up with construction! oh well…be sure to note the ‘notes’! Hope it inspires you to use your dies… hehe
I show the construction process and tell the sizes in the video…
I LOVE the addition of the kite to this scene! It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood!
You can swing for awhile… grab a friend and go for a bike ride and even rest for awhile on the awesome park bench!
Here’s a closeup of that FUN bike!
I used all Memory Box card-stocks… Water, Dill, Granny Smith, Vanilla Bean, Licorice, Crimson and White. So much fun! Holler if you have any questions… I think between the video and the photos it’s pretty much self explanatory!
Is it ok if every once in awhile you can say, “Oh, I love this” about your own work?! lol Well, I love this! It just screams Spring colors and the excitement of new growth. Two new dies from Memory Box, Jasper Leaves, HEREand Hello, HERE. I also used Fancy Blossoms HERE, Poppystamps Birdcage HERE and Nestled Bird HERE. I used Memory Box Key Lime Dots, Key Lime Gingham, Pool, Pool Moroccan, Parchment and Meadow card-stocks. Perfect Layers Tools to cut the mat… link over on the right…
Lol mentioned my Jasper Leaves in the favorites thread this week at SCS! Thank you Loll!
Add some grass…a butterfly… stamps…Memory Box pattern paper…all dies cut out of Memory Box card-stock too! It’s awesome stuff! Ask your local stamp store to carry it! Perfect Layers Rulers used to make the mats/layers. A little Copic coloring on the white puffy flowers…Peeled Paint Distress ink to stamp the Fresh Spring Wreath stamp over the sentiment.

Graceful Silhouette card #2 for today! I was going for a light, delicate look here…
I love the Corner Bow die… I clipped off the part that was extending off the card and used it to attach the tag to the stem of the Graceful Silhouette cut! I hid the end up the leaf. Memory Box Butterfly pattern paper in the background. Perfect Layers Rulers used to make the mats/layers.
