Impression Obsession Birch Trees and Road/Stream

There is a lot of subtle things going on in this card. 

The background sky is embossing with a cloud embossing folder by Taylored Expressions. The grassy area is cut with a stitched rectangle by Memory Box Open Studio. The tee pee and canoe by Taylored Expressions are popped up and inked with a mocha chalk ink. The birch trees by Impression obsession are also inked. The bird in flight and the stream are also dies by Impression Obsession. 

Taylored Expressions On The Line Cutting Plate

For this card I got out my Dylusions spray ink and sprayed in on a golden yellow card stock. I then added the On The Line Cutting plate  and the Wispy Grass in black (both dies by Taylored Expressions) and the Celebrate die by Cheery Lynn. Quick and easy sunset card!

Taylored Expressions Build a Scene-Lakeside set

I made this card by first taking a piece of paper and using Distress Ink to create the sky. Then I layered the hills on top using the Poppy Stamps die stitched Landscapes. I made the Tree, fire and tee pee using the Taylored Expressions Build-a-scene Lakeside set. The stitched clouds and sentiment are also by Taylored Expressions. The stitched tag is by Frantic Stamper.

Impression Obsession Chicken and Rooster

Something about this time of year reminds me of county fairs and farms! To make this card I used the Stitched Rectangle dies from Memory Box Open Studio, the wispy grass die and Chicken Wire embossing folder by Taylored Expressions, the sun die by MFTstamps (dienamics) and the chicken and rooster die by impressions Obsessions. 

Cheery Lynn Stacker Flower #4

Love the simple look of this card. Using all aqua/teals and whites makes this card so pretty! I used Stitched Squares by Cottage Cutz and the flower is the Cheery Lynn Stacker Flower 4. For the center of the flower, I borrowed the center of the Cheery Lynn Sunflower die. I used the Zutter Bow-it-all to make the pretty little double bow. Pattern paper is a retired line by Carta Bella.

Dee's Distinctively Dies Cardinal and Impression Obsession Pine

This card could easily be flipped into a Christmas card instead of a birthday card.  I wanted to make something a little more outdoorsy for a birthday. I love the colors in this card. I popped up the cardinal by Dee's Distinctively dies. It was a set of 8 different cardinals. 

The branch is by Impression Obsession, I cut that out in a color to match my base and the grayish brown in the wood paper background. The Happy Birthday sentiment is by Taylored Expressions.

I used a black and white gingham ribbon to finish it off. I made the double bow using the Zutter Bow-it-all. If you haven't tried out this tool yet and love to use bows on your projects, you definitely should! I can make so many perfect bows in a short period of time!! I LOVE it!

Memory Box Ballerina card

What a sweet card for that special ballerina in your life!! This die by Memory Box is such a sweet and elegant die! I used soft purples and grays to create this dancing girl.
