Happy Power Poppy Friday~February 23rd!



Hello there and happy Friday to you!  I hope you have been doing well.  All's good here and we are definitely ready for the weekend!  I have a little card to share with you today using Power Poppy's Sassy Succulents stamp set.  This set is just so fun to use!

































I started by stamping my succulents on a die cut panel, masking a couple of them to give a full arrangement across the top of my panel.  After coloring them up with Copics, I added some shimmer with a Wink of Stella clear brush pen, some ink spatters with a spritzing tool, stitched on a little polka dot paper, then stamped my sentiment.  I adhered my finished image panel on to a layered card base.  This card measures 3 7/8" square.  





































I just love this darling sentiment and these beautiful succulents are so much fun to color!  All of Marcella's lovely details really make these images pop.  So that is all for my card today but a couple of my Bloomie sisters have some cards for your Friday inspiration.  Make sure you leave them a little blog love while you are there. :) If you haven't popped over to the Power Poppy blog lately, make sure you do that too!  I am so glad you stopped by today....I hope you have a wonderful weekend and I'd love it if could could visit again soon.  Until then, take care.

Happy Power Poppy Friday~February 9th!
















Hello there and happy Friday!  I have a quick little post to share with you today featuring Power Poppy's new digital stamp set, Va Va Valentines!  This digital set has six adorable images with accompanying sentiments and four additional sentiments for the inside of your card..... all for the limited time price of $6!  If you haven't already, you really need to grab this set up!  I chose to use the precious sock couple image with sentiment for a special valentine for Mr. Sims!  ;)




I started by sizing the image and printing it twice...once for my card panel and the other to fussy cut the socks.  I colored the socks with Copics and fussy cut them.  Once I die cut my image panel, I colored the sentiment, sponged some ink around, stitched on some patterned paper, and adhered the fussy cut socks.  I added some shimmer and shine to the socks with a Wink of Stella clear brush pen and a Sakura Glaze pen so I could play along with Power Poppy's newest Power & Spark challenge hosted by the incredibly talented and super sweet Kathy Jones!  You can see all of the details about the challenge here.   All that was left was to adhere the assembled panel to my die cut card base.




Yes, indeed.....I am SO happy I found him and so happy to have the perfect image for his valentine.  That Marcella is definitely a romantic at heart.....the entire set is darling!  

So that is all for my little card today, but several of my Bloomie sisters have some beautiful cards to share for your Friday inspiration.  Make sure you leave a little blog love while you are there.  Thank you so much for stopping by today and I hope to see you around again really soon.  Until then, take care!  :)
