CardMaker Blog and Poppy Stamps Bloghop

Hello everybody!
Are you ready for the week end? How about starting the weekend off with a blog hop?
CardMarker and Poppy Stamps are having a Blog hop today and if you arrived from
Pam Simpson's  Blog,
you are in the right place.  If you just happened to pop in, you can start the blog hop
HERE:
Poppy Stamps will be hosting a giveaway of a die set to one winner on their blog

  I have 2 cards for today's blog.  Here I used the Maple Leaf Border Die. I used 5 of the cut out pieces and stamped it with a script stamp and colored the leaves using Distress Ink pads and  blending tool.  The sentiment is from Technique Tuesday.


For my 2nd card, I used the Puffy Cloud Die and the Theo Butterfly Die.  The clouds and the butterfly are both colored using Distress Ink pads and a blending tool. The sentiments is from MFT Stamps.


Ok. Now, your next stop is Kay Miller.
Be sure to leave a comment on each blog for a chance to win a Die Set from Poppy Stamps.
Happy Hopping!!!

    May these maple leaves look more like my back yard =] Love the technique Tuesday sentiment on the first... might just have to do a little shopping... is it new or been around for some time? Gorgeous stormy sky, too... even in the real world those Monarchs can take a storm like champions!

    Oh Mae! The brilliant color just jumps off the page and draws me in - the bright orange leaves, and then BAM! The blue and orange together on the second. SO clean and stunning!
