For my first card I used Word Critters Collection - Gardening Birds. I fell in love with this set as soon as I saw it! The birdies and other images are so cute and I love the sentiments too. I used the Stitched Rectangle Die to cut my white cardstock and then I used the Peek A Boo Window Die to cut the opening. I sponged some green and blue inks on my card base inside the window opening. I colored all the images with copics and cut them out using the coordinating dies. I used Glossy Accents on the water in the birdbath and then I added a few sparkly Magical Pastel and Hey Baby gumdrops to finish my card.
My second card features the Little Notes stamp set. I love this set too! I absolutely adore the sentiments and you can make some quick and easy cards to send to all those special friends to let me know you're thinking of them! I used the Stitched Rectangle Die to cut the plaid pattern. I stamped the notebook paper on Neenah cardstock and used the coordinating dies to cut everything out. I added some Magical Pastel and Ocean Mist glittered gumdrops. I even finished the inside of the card with a scrap of the plaid paper and the cute little sun that's included in this stamp set!
