I have a couple of cards for you today. The first one highlights the incredibly awesome Stitched Speech Bubble Edges Die-namics! It’s the Free With $60 set this month and can’t you just imagine all KINDS of fun ways to use it? I couldn’t decide which one to use for this card so I used them all! I started with a Sweet Tooth card stock base. After deciding on a design, I stamped the sentiment, from Keep on Rockin’, at the bottom with Steel Gray dye ink. Then I added my speech bubble layers: Orange Fizz card stock for the bottom, water color for the center, and Razzle Berry card stock for the top. I used Razzle Berry dye ink refill, Lemon Drop dye ink refill, and Orange Fizz dye ink refill and a water brush to color the center layer. The top two are popped up on foam mounting tape, and I finished off by adhering clear gems with my Quickie Glue pen.

On the inside, I stenciled the same colors with Equalizer Stencil and stamped another sentiment and music notes from Keep on Rockin’.

My second card is a little more formal in design.

This card started with a Steel Gray card stock base. Next I stamped up some Sweet Tooth card stock with Steel Gray dye ink and the new Polka Dot Background. I matted it with gold glitter paper and popped it up on foam mounting tape on the base. Next I cut my Stitched Rectangle Frames Die-namics from gold mirror paper (I’m so glad gold is making a come back!) and popped it up on foam mounting tape on a piece of Translucent Vellum. I cut LJD Spring Tulips from Sweet Tooth card stock, stamped them with the coordinating images with: Green Room dye ink, Orange Zest hybrid ink, Pure Plum hybrid ink, Coral Crush hybrid ink, and Daffodil hybrid ink, then slipped them just inside the frame. I tied around some gold cord, secured with a clear button and adhered the frame assembly to the card. The sentiment was stamped on Steel Gray card stock with Sweet Tooth pigment ink and heat embossed with clear detail embossing powder, then popped up as well.

Another sentiment from LJD Spring Tulips was stamped on the inside with Steel Gray dye ink.
