Happy Friday with Power Poppy!
















Hello there and welcome for another Power Poppy Friday post.  I am so glad you could stop by today!  For today's card, I chose to use the darling stamp set Party Time.





I started by stamping my image with Memento's Tuxedo black ink on to card stock and coloring it in with Copics.  I added some sparkle with a clear Wink of Stella brush pen.  Next, I die cut my colored image with a rectangle die.  After that, I made my card base.  This card measures 3 5/8" x 5 1/8" .  For my card front, I layered card stock and patterned paper, added a banner image and sentiment from the same set and some stitching.  All that was left was to assemble everything.  At the last minute, I added some sequins.



 


I just love these stacked presents!  You could use them for any occasion and they are SO fun to color!  :)




So that is all for my card today but some of my Bloomie sisters have some pretty special cards to share with you today so make sure you check them out and leave them a little blog love while you are there.  Thank you so much for you visit today.  I hope you have a wonderful weekend and I also hope you find your way back here again soon.  Until then, take care. :)

Happy Power Poppy Friday!














Hey there and a very happy Friday to you!  It is so good to be able to share a card with you today.  I have been a bit under the weather for a while but I am happy to say that things are slowly getting back to normal around here.  I sure have missed card making and I really have missed our visits!  :) 

 So, for today's card I thought I would use one of the newest Power Poppy stamp sets, Peony Muse.  This set has so many possibilities.  I thought it would be fun to spotlight the biggest bloom in the set and I paired it with a sentiment from another new Power Poppy set, Loving Tulips.  













I used a few dies to build up my card base starting with two scalloped circles, then the pierced circles.  I stamped my sentiment onto some patterned paper with my MISTI....I am so loving this tool!  :)  I added a little gold leafing on the inner circle to highlight the sentiment then got busy coloring up my bloom and leaves with Copics.  This amazing stamp set actually has coordinating dies (which are completely wonderful) but I decided to fussy cut these instead.  Once I had arranged everything, I adhered it all down using glue dots and foam tape to add some dimension.






If that bloom doesn't make you swoon, then I don't know what will!  Just look at all of that glorious detail that Marcella is famous for.....and this image is such a dream to color!  

So that is all for my card today, but several of my Bloomie sisters have created some beautiful cards for your Friday inspiration...so make sure you check them out and leave a little blog love while you are there.  Again, I am so happy to be able to share a card today.  Thank you so much for popping in.  I hope you have a wonderful weekend, and until next time....take care!  :)
