Meet Poppy Bittybloom...


Isn't she adorable?? I made this card for Mother's Day which BTW is quickly approaching... Geez, where does the time go, huh? The inside reads: "If mothers were flowers, I'd pick YOU!" Doesn't that go perfectly with this image? Yeah, I thought so too!

Ok, so I stamped Poppy Bittybloom from Stamping Bella onto some Classic Crest Solar White CS and colored her with my Copics. I used my circle Nestie to cut her out with and, with the die in place, sponged some chalk ink around the edges. I paper pieced her dress with this great DP from DCWV's Citrus stack. Lots of oranges, yellows and reds in this stack, oh and tons of glittered paper too! Just screams FLORIDA to me, so I guess that means it's PERFECT for this little FLORIDA gal!! LOL!! Actually, all the orange trees are FULL of blossoms right now, and the smell is incredible. Orange blossoms have the most sweetest smell ever!! I just LOVE it!! Ahhhhh.... Ok-ok, back to my card.... The mat is punched with my EK Success border punch and I stitched around all the edges. I used my NEW Spellbinders BIG scalloped circle behind the image and I LOVE this look. Just kinda brings all the flower elements together, doesn't it? To finish, I tied this natural colored twill ribbon into a cute bubbly bow! Ok, be sure to leave a cluck below and let me know what you think of her, k? Have a wonderful Monday!!

  10. Hi jeanie, just want to say hi and I love all your cards. There is something about your style that I really like. Your cards are so coordinated and coloured perfectly (of course.) And I really like how you use coordinating paper as a back drop for cards in your pics. It looks fanatastic! You're fabulous!
