A Sympathy Card (Stampin' Up Hopeful Thoughts)

For this sympathy card,  I used the Stampin' Up "Hopeful Thoughts" set for the flower and the sentiment.  The patterned paper is from a 6x6" stack I got from The Range some time ago called "Floral Fusion".

Hello Patchwork Card

This afternoon, I've been playing with a patchwork die.  

I like this block/die as it has interval markers to replicate stitches on the paper cut outs.  I used the "Floral Fusion" paper pad for the patterned papers. The Hello is a die cut using Stampin' Up "Hello You Thinlits".

Week 33 - 52 Week Mini Art Card / Tag Challenge 2017

The prompt for Week 33 is "Eastern Influence".

My tag is very loosely Eastern. I started with a piece of patterned paper with a blossom design, (it's from the Floral Fusion paper pad available from The Range).  Using some off cuts from the same pad, I cut around some flowers adding them to the top and bottom corner of the tag.

Using Memory Box dies (Pippi Butterfly - 98508 and Isabella Butterfly - 98507) I cut three base butterflies and three lace top layers in two different papers.  Finally, I used a Martha Stewart punch to cut the foliage.

Birthday Card (Using Apple Blossom Banner & Blooms)

I was up early today so made a card for a birthday celebration next week.

Here's a close up of the detail:

For this card I have used two sheets of patterned paper from the Floral Fusion paper pad I picked up at The Range.

For the wavy sentiment, I used Apple Blossom "Banner & Die" set, stamped using StazOn in a "Black Cherry" shade. The flowers may be Prima ones.  The white foliage is die cut using a small Sizzix die.
