Happy Birthday

Happy Monday!! I hope you had a wonderful weekend!! It's my turn to post on the Die-Versions blog and I have a couple of birthday cards to share with you featuring several Die-Versions dies.

I started with papers from Craft and You's Wedding Garden stack. The doily at the top of the card is a Whispers Ring of Hearts die. I used a Whispers Stitched Nesting Squares die to cut the hole and create the frame.

A Whispers Fence Background was used in the opening. The sentiment is a Whispers Sweet Wordlet Celebrate die. The crinkle ribbon is from DL.ART.

A Whispers Happy Sweet Wordlet and Whispers Birthday Sweet Wordlet were used on the bottom of the card.

Thanks so much for stopping by!! Have a great day :)

Sail Away With Me Nautical Cards

Happy Friday!! I hope you have fun plans for the last weekend in July!! Ugh - almost August already. It's my turn to post on the Die-Versions blog and I have some nautical-themed cards to share with you today featuring dies from the June release :)

I used papers from Graphic 45's By The Sea collection. A Sweet Wordlet Happy and Sweet Wordlet Birthday were used for the sentiment. A Whispers Life Preserver Border was used along the bottom, with steel brads used to anchor them to the paper.

A Whispers Message in a Bottle die was inked Salty Ocean with a touch of Mowed Grass Distress Inks for a sea glass look and then covered with crackle medium. Once it dried, Walnut Distress Ink was used to highlight the cracks. The stopper was cut from cork paper. The message was cut with parchment paper that was crumpled and then inked for some texture. 

This card used all of the same dies: Sweet Wordlet Happy, Sweet Wordlet Birthday, Whispers Life Preserver Border and Whispers Message in a Bottle.

This one uses the same Whispers Life Preserver Border and Whispers Message in a Bottle, but the sentiment is from the Sail Away Stamp Set.

I have a very busy weekend planned so I may be late in visiting you. I hope you have a wonderful weekend!!

Thanks so much for stopping by :)
