Birthday Wishes Die-Versions Post

Happy Monday!! I hope you had a wonderful weekend!! We were in the high 60's here!! Unheard of for January!! It's my turn to post on the Die-Versions blog and I have a couple of cards with you today using dies from the newest release. If you use the code lisa15 when you are shopping at Die-Versions, you'll receive a 15% discount on all regular priced items (not to be combined with other sales or promotions).

For these cards, I used papers from Maja Designs. A Whispers Bricks Background die cut in heavyweight cardstock and added next.

Next, I used a Whispers Butterfly Collage die, but it's a little hard to see. Tucked under the Wild Orchid Crafts flowers is the new Whispers Flourish die.

The butterfly is a Wee Petites Buggy die, and it was covered in Sparkle N Sprinkle Crystal Ice glitter. The beautiful crinkle ribbon is from DL.ART.

For the sentiment, I used one of the new Whispers Tag Set dies.

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 cards to share with you today using one of the dies from the newest release. If you use the code lisa15 you'll receive 15% off your regular price Die-Versions order.

I try not to go overboard with layers and embellishments when I'm showcasing Die-Versions dies to keep them as the focal point. The Whispers Butterfly Collage die is from the newest release. I cut it twice and then fussy cut around the butterfly and added glitter so it sparkles. I only attached it at the body so the wings can flutter :)

I popped it up with foam tape for dimension and added some pearls. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the ribbon is from DL.ART. On the bow, I used a Wee Petites Button die, which is not currently in stock.

Remember, if you use the code lisa15 you'll receive 15% off your regular price Die-Versions order!! And speaking of butterflies...

I spotted this beauty the other day!! I tried to look it up to see what kind it is and I've narrowed it down to the Aphrodite Fritillary or the Great Spangled Fritillary.

Here's the underside of the wings. I can't tell which one it is, so I decided it was the Aphrodite Fritillary...just because I like the name :)

And this is the Frightened Aphrodite Fritillary...notice who decided to photobomb the picture (and scare her away?!!)

One last note...bidding ends tomorrow at 11 pm for the card and matching gift box set I created for the Blogs 4 Boobies Blog Hop, with 100% of the proceeds going to the Susan G. Komen Foundation. The current winning bid is $40. To place your bid, please visit the original post HERE.

Celebration Blog Hop

This is my second post of the day. For my Scrapy Land project, click HERE!! 

We here at Die-Versions have collaborated with two awesome companies: Joy Clair Stamps and DL.ART to come up with a fun and festive Celebration Blog Hop. We want to showcase how well our three companies products work together. Die-Versions makes very intricate and lovely dies; Joy Clair makes high quality clear stamps; and DL.ART makes gorgeous rayon hand-dyed crinkle ribbon and also carries bakers twine and other hand crafted seasonal supplies.

The Celebration Blog Hop will take place on Wednesday, May 18th, Thursday, May 19th and Friday, May 20th. Over the three days all Design Team Members will be sharing with you projects they have made for all the many upcoming Celebrations that come around this time of year, ie....Weddings, Baby Showers, Baby Births, Graduations, Father's Day, and of course Birthdays! All Design Team Members will be using supplies from all three companies to make their projects so you can see for yourself how lovely these products work together and how dies, stamps and ribbons are the perfect combination!!

There will be prizes for those who comment on all the blogs over the three days and who become followers of all the blogs. Die-Versions is giving away a $50.00 Gift Certificate to the Die-Versions store.

DL.ART is running a 3 day Special during the Blog Hop for all of the Design Team Followers ~ 12% off your entire order at DL.ART by using code: DJDHOPS this code will only be valid on the 3 days of the Celebration Blog Hop.

I'm the first stop on the hop. The entire list of Designers for the entire Celebration Blog Hop is listed on the Die-Versions Blog if you get lost along the way.

For my first set of cards, I created baby cards for both a girl and a boy with papers from Lemoncraft. All of the sentiments and the sweet little babies are from Joy Clair's Oh, Baby Stamp set. The babies were placed on a Die-Versions Whispers Stitched Nested Circle die.

The adorable dog safety pin and bunny safety pin are from Die-Versions new Whispers Build a Safety Pin die set (love it!!). This beautiful crinkle ribbon from DL.ART is Sweet Dream from the Baby Bundle and the Blue Twine is also from DL.ART.

This gorgeous DL.ART crinkle ribbon is Baby Pink from the Baby Bundle. The button on the ribbon is a Die-Versions Wee Petites Button die and the Pink Twine is from DL.ART.

For my second set of cards, I used the new Die-Versions Whispers Butterfly Collage die. Isn't it gorgeous??!! I didn't want to take away from it too much, so I popped it up with foam tape and applied it over a Brusho background.

Birthday is a Die-Versions Express Edges die. The sentiment is from Joy Clair's Wedding Sentiments stamp set. I thought the sentiment was perfect for a birthday, too :) This crinkle ribbon from DL.ART is Primrose from the 2016 Spring Bundle. The Yellow Twine is from DL.ART.

This crinkle ribbon from DL.ART is Peach from the 2016 Spring Bundle. The Orange Twine is from DL.ART. The button is a Die-Versions Wee Petites Button die.

Your next stop on the blog hop is Crystal Thompson's Blog. Blow is the list of the blogs with their links, or you could also head back to the Die-Versions Blog. The complete list will be posted there each day.
