Pam here...I'll start off with a card using some NEW dies from the Memory Box Spring & Summer Collection. Oh WOW! I LOVE NEW! Then another card using a NEW die and some just good to have on hand dies!
Blog Blitz for this collection starts next Monday! That means lots of inspiration and giveaways here on the blog!
YAY!

*For this card I cut the Wildflower Corner two times.
*Glued one complete cut in the bottom left corner. (I use Tombow mono multi glue, little dots here and there)
*Glued the other corner in pieces to the top right corner, right side and top left corner.
*Die cut the thanks Cloud but just used the word. I cut my thin mounting squares into narrow strips.
*die cut the Asti Butterfly Wings directly in the card front...it doesn't cut completely...it stays connected at the body.
*die cut the Swirl Butterfly, glue on top of the Asti butterfly
*Memory Box White and Lagoon A-2 Notecards
A pretty CAS card that could be used for several occasions!

Here's the NEW Beautiful Balloon die pieced and inlaid with the Puffy Clouds dies... I just love this look and it's so much fun to do! After everything was pieced in, I stamped parts of the happy hello combo stamp with the Stamp a ma jig. Love the embossing in the balloon!
Hello is die cut out of the card front also and another white hello die cut inserted. Imagine the 'hello' as part of the cloud formation. : )
Ribbon is from May Arts.
Holly Berry Red & White A-2 Notecards
This truly is a one layer card.
Wish you could see it in person! : ) Thanks for 'floating' by today! Have a great stamping/die cutting week and I'll talk to you later!
Both are stunning - really like the tone-on-tone background in the first card. The combination of clouds and balloon in the second is wonderful!

Absolutely love both of these cards. I liked the way you did the first
One with glue. I loved at club your using same corners inlaid.
My order for new dies is in the mail. Will be a great week waiting for them..
Thanks so much for sharing your talent! Jan

Thanks Jan! That's right! I forgot I did one and inlaid it with white instead of tone on tone! I should've posted a picture of it too! I'll get it up on my blog.

Love the balloon with clouds card! Was it hard to lay out the overlapped clouds two times exactly the same way?
Posted by: Susan S. | 03/18/2014 at 01:57 PM
nope, not hard at all, you just cut one at a time. I need to make a video of it. You start by cutting the farthest back piece first which was the balloon and then work your way up. Fill in the hole you cut before you cut the next die.

lovely embossing to frame the butterfly and love the layering on the butterfly.... neat scene on the second and love the way the sentiment has been done combining stamping and dies

thank you Susan, Connie and everyone!

When I first saw your lovely card I thought the card had been embossed. Using the tone on tone paper color with the corner inlaid is a great technique. Thank you for sharing.
