Memory Box Class

We are having a Memory Box class in our store on July 20th and we want to show you what we are making! We are mixing Poppy Stamps Dies and Memory Box Dies in the cards that we are creating.  Here are two of the cards...
 This first card uses the Poppy Stamps Stick frame and the corner Thanks together with the Tender Tulip die.

Using the Floral Dotted Border from Poppy Stamps to create a decorative border, then cutting off some of the flowers for additional accents on the card.  I added a pop of color with the Memory Box Isabella and Pippi Butterfly dies and  Leafy Branches.  Plus we will be making a christmas card as well!
 Look for new Holiday Memory Box and Poppy Stamps coming the first of July!

CardMakers Blog Hop

Thanks for joining us today for the CardMaker Blog Hop.  If you have been following the hop, you should have come from Rebecca's blog.  We are continuing to showcase some of the new images from Prickley Pear, so we hope you enjoy being inspired!!
One of my favorite new image are these Bold Daisies. I had some small ladybugs that I stamped and die cut using the Dainty Dragonflies and matching die sets.  They added a touch of whimsy to these adorable flowers.  Then I used the saying from and older Butterflies clear stamp set.
Summer is in full bloom with this Large Birdhouse.  I cut off the small post and fussy cut around the bird, to have the bird perched on a hanging birdhouse! I used a Taylored Expressions branch embossing folder and colored the embossed image with Copic Markers.  Then I stamped the small flowers from the Flowers 2 Clear Set and cut them out with the matching die.   I love these small flowers because they add so much to a card.
Here I add more of the flowers to this cute Kitty card.  This little kitten is so adorable!  It will brighten anyone's day!  Then I added the sentiment from the Dragonflies 2 Clear Set.  I hope you are enjoying all the great new images from Prickley Pear and all the beautiful creations.  Your next stop on your hop is Irit's blog. She uses some of these same images in more of an artistic, shabby chic way!  You will love her inspiring works of art.  When you are done hopping, be sure to leave a comment on the Prickley Pear blog for your chance to win a $20 Gift Certificate.  Prickley Pear will be picking a random winner from all that leave a comment!  Until next time...and Good Luck!
