Easter Egg Hunt

I have some more Easter Cards to share today, this time I have used the Photoplay Hop TO IT collection.  All of my cards were created using just the Photoplay collection, I have only used some dies and punches to add detail.  

I used five of the papers on this card, I rounded the corners on the topper and used my Fishtail Flag dies to create the two little banners.

I used three of the papers on this card, I fussy cut the little banner, the tag is from the sticker sheet along with all of the other bits and pieces.  I also used my binding edge punch and added white twine to the tag.

For my third card I used three of the papers and one of the toppers which I framed with my Tangled Circle die.  I also used some stickers and a butterfly fussy cut from one of the patterned papers 

On my final card I used three of the papers, a topper and some stickers, I used an Inverted Corner Rectangle nesting die to cut the panels and my fishtail flag die to cut the banners.

Me & You

I have four more Valentine cards to share today.  I have used the Photoplay Smitten collection .  I previously posted four other cards using this collection, you can find them HERE if you missed them.

Playing with paper is definitely my favourite, I just love cutting and layering up patterned papers.  I used the cover sheet as the background on this card, I just added die cut ovals, a sticker and a punched border tied with twine.

I used three of the papers, a topper and some stickers on this card.

I used the opposite triangles of paper that were left from the previous card here along with some stickers.

For my final card, I used more of the papers, a topper and some stickers.  I made a rosette from one of the papers and topped it with a sticker.

We have just started planting seeds for the veg garden and greenhouse, it's going to get busy in the garden over the next few months, I'm really looking forward to the warmer weather and spending some time outside.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog today, your company is much appreciated - I hope to get some time to visit everyone this week, fingers crossed!

XOXO

I had a little play with my Photoplay Smitten collection a while ago and created some valentine cards.

For this card I used two of the papers, some elements from the ephemera pack to create the little banner, flowers from the sticker sheet and a sentiment fussy cut from one of the toppers.

This time I used four of the papers, some bits and pieces from the sticker sheet and a topper from the paper pad.

Everything on this card is from the collection with the exception of a little heart cut from velum.  I often use velum to separate a focal point from the background when the background is a little fussy, it helps the focal point to stand out a bit. 

Again, everything on this card is from the Smitten collection, I used a Crafter's Companion die to cut the dotty banner from one of the papers, the heart and small sentiment are from the sticker sheet and I cut the larger sentiment from one of the toppers in the paper pad.

Thank you for popping in today - please leave a comment so that I can come and visit you.
