MY CARDS:

I'm excited to share a few cards I've created with some of the fabulous products in this release!

Up first is the beautiful, Forest Border Frame die! I did some very simple Copic coloring on the die pieces. Easy and quick!



For my next card, I used the Carnival Petals embossing folder. I embossed it on a piece of Color Blend Cardstock then added a die cut sentiment. Another quick card.


My third card uses the Mod Leaf cling stamp. I decided to use Copic Markers for a rainbow of colors.



Up next is the Warm Hugs hot foil plate. I really love how large the sentiment is and it foils beautifully! I paired it with an older embossing folder.



And last but not least, the adorable stamp set called, It's Your Birthday. This is the cutest set! I used the bunny image for my card. I colored with it with Copics, fussy cut it out and adhered it to an ink blended panel.


Okay, that's it for me. I hope I've given you a few ideas for using some of the products in this fun release. Enjoy the rest of the hop and Happy World Card Making Day!
