Embossed Thankyou

Just a couple of  Clean and simple cards, well the first one started out that way but as usual I couldn't resist adding more. LOL
I have been collecting CAS card on pinterest and the inspiration for this one seem fairly simple. Emboss a panel cut a window and layer with foam dots and add some ribbon. Well mine looked very plain so I got out some ink and coloured in the window and embossed it, it has been ages since I have used embossing powder. I used the craft concepts in bloom embossing folder, added a couple of butterflies and gem stones just to dress it up. 
 For this tag I used MFT Die-namics and stamps, very quick to make on short notice.

Pop'n Cuts Butterflies

Today I am sharing you a Pop N Cuts card using the new Karen Burniston Journey Collection Pop N Cuts dies recently released by Sizzix. They are just such fun to use and a very quick way to make an amazing card.
 This card was made for a lady that loves leopard print but not necessarily leopards themselves. The paper is from Canvas Corp, I added a gold sticker row on the join and pearls on the butterfly.
When the card is opened the butterflies pop out, it is just magical. The verse is an old one from Print Blocks Australia.

Happy Stamping

Groovy Day

This designer paper screams the psychedelic era of 60s and 70s, when My Favorite Things released the Doodle Garden Far Out stamp set, I just had to create a card. Lime green and Orange are one of my favourite colour combinations. I also teamed this stamp with other MFT products, the leaf filled flourish, the Upsy daisy and the beautiful bows along with the Martha Stewart border punch.
For the inside I used the sizzix pop n cut die and the sizzix sizzlets hello set. The designer paper I have used is from DCWV cut to 12 x 6 and it was already embossed with gold.

Thanks for looking
