STAMPlorations Things with Wings Blog Hop

Hi Everyone,

we at STAMPlorations are having a spring blog hop featuring the new stamps and dies - you are going to love them!

 
The theme is Things with Wings - even if there are no wings on flowers....


I have two cards for you. For the first one I used those pretty trendy flower dies. I sprayed watercolor paper with Dylusion inks, let it dry and die cut a bunch of flowers. Arranged them on my card with a dark grey panel under neath. Added the word die - also brand new. I used fun foam for it.
For the grey panel I also used the stitched nesting die to give it more interest.

For my second card I used the butterfly row die and stamped it with Versamark black ink. Added watercolors and let it dry. I also used the  largest of the Stitched Nesting Dies and added the word die sentiment - love those different fonts!

I think your flowers do have wings, because they've flown straight to my heart! LOVE your bold blooms! As for your butterflies...swoon! Apologies for falling behind yet again, but this time the 'big move' is to blame! LOVE x LOVE my new house! Still so much to do, including the back-and-forth drives to deal with the townhouse. Anyway...a dynamic duo here! I'm so glad to be designing alongside you for this hop!

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it. And here is a close -up: Challenges: Dynamic Duos CAS Colours and Sketches Addicted to Stamps and More Amusing Challenges Materials: Papertrey Background Basics: Super Stripes, Memory Box Chloe Stem die. --X-- Card for Maddy: You may know already about  Maddy ,  who  was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia and went through chemotherapy treatment followed by a stem cell transplant from her (then) fifteen year old sister Melanie.  She now has a relapse and this car
