Hey everyone! Happy Tuesday!
I’m over at Splitcoaststampers today playing along with the rest of my
fellow Card Sketch Team using this month’s sketch. It’s a fun one this week.
You check it out here, SC645, a sketch designed by Carey.
Here's my card using the sketch. I chose to feature some fun products from Honey Bee Stamps today.
Here's a close up of the card. All my bees have sparkly wings...
Plus the little chickie above is on a mini Action Wobble and jiggles! Awwww!
I wanted to complete the inside of my card too...
I just LOVE all the fun coordinating stamps and dies that Honey Bee Stamps sells!
Thanks for buzzin' by!

Power Poppy: Succulent Fields
Happy Friday one and all! I’m off on a Scout camp weekend so I’m packing up
my gear and getting ready for hopefully lots of sunshine and fresh air. But
before I go, I’m sharing a fun card using Power Poppy’s amazing
products!
Today I made a card with a lot of masking! If you haven’t already checked out my easy masking tutorial over on the Power Poppy Blog, make sure you do. You can find right HERE.
I used one of newest clear stamp sets called “Succulent Singles” to create today’s card. I stamped and masked off all the different succulents to create the cascade of plants. Then I left all the masks on the plants and blended my Ranger Distress Inks all across the back ground.
Check out this card a little closer…
I’m playing along with a few fun challenges today. First off all, I used this week’s sketch from Fresh Made Sketches, #287;
Plus I used the colour scheme and photo inspiration from the Cupcake Inspiration Challenge, #406;
Now check out what my fellow Bloomies have created for you to check out today…
Marcella also has a SALE going on this weekend. You can check out all the details on the Power Poppy Blog today! Happy shopping!
Thanks again for joining us for today! I hope you have an amazing weekend and to all you Mom’s out there… Happy Mother’s Day!

Power Poppy: Frame It Up!
Howdy all! Happy Friday everyone! Today the Power
Poppy Bloom Brigaders are having fun with
our brand new Power & Spark Challenge for May.
This month’s challenge is super easy and FUN! For your card entry, you must create a card with some kind of frame on it. Simple right?!?
AND GET THIS!!! Marcella has upped the ante! She’s giving away a $50 shopping spree to this month’s winner! WOOHOO! So make sure you come and play along! Power Poppy images are not required but we always love to see them!
Now for my framed up creation…
I’ve been thinking about making this card all week long for this challenge. I decided to pick a non-traditional frame for my card front and drop some fun little blooms from our Natural Beauties stamp set inside along with a sweet greeting from our Loving Tulips stamp set. I gave my self a break from fussy cutting today and die cut my blooms using their coordinating dies, the Natural Beauties Dies. (So handy to have!!!)
Now, check on out all my fellow Bloomies and their amazing creations this week…
PLUS… the Instant Gardeners (Digi Team) will up on the Power Poppy Blog today too with a fun new digital stamp to share!! Make sure you check that out!!
Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you enjoy all the fun projects today!
