There are also some great dies including a number of ones for the image sets and the amazing stitched circles (love' em).
Today we have a great hop to showcase all of these fabulous images and dies. Take a moment to look around, then you will want to hop along to all of the blogs featured below. Remember to leave a comment on each of the blog in the hop, because there will be a prize for one lucky stamper. That's right you could win $20 to spend in the YNS store! It's worth it to leave a little love for all of the Design Team girls.
For my first card I used the super sweet DINO-MITE stamps along with the STITCHING MARKS CIRCLE Die.
I just adore these cute prehistoric critters, however I knew that my darling dino was going to include pink,
glitter and flowers! I used Copic markers on my dino and added sparkle using my Glitter Ritz micro fine glitter.
Of course, you know my card is not complete with out a finished inside. I just love the sentiments with this set. This one is my favourite.

ReplyDeleteTracy, I love your bright, cheerful colored/patterned cards. Awesome coloring too!
ReplyDeleteOkay Tracy...here's the thing...how do you so wonderfully coordinate those awesome brightly colored patterned papers together on a card?? That's a gift I lack & am so envious of...they are both just beautiful!!
ReplyDeletePatty, thank you for your comments. To make the job easier with coordinating my paper, I almost always work from the same paper collection. I like using 6x6 pads. My general rule for a layered card is 3 to 4 patterns. The background is usually low key, not too busy. I will then accent with a busy focal paper (florals). My horizontal paper most often is a lined print and any other will be a more subtle print (dots). I will usually pull out the paper and lay it side by side and on top of each other to see if I like how they look. Once I am happy, then I will start cutting the paper. If I am really struggling with putting my papers together, I will keep the card very simple.
DeleteYour color choices are awesome! I can't pick a favorite card!!! The stamps are so cute!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteTwo fantastic cards! I love the patterned papers you chose!
ReplyDeleteOh WOW!!!! I am melting! These two cards are so cheerful and cute! Design of both cards is AMAZING! I like a lot all layers and papers and images and embellishments..... EVERYTHING! :-D
