Power Poppy's March Stamp Release~Day 2!


Hi there....so happy to see you back!  Did you enjoy all of the festivities over on the Power Poppy blog yesterday?  That Marcella really knows how to celebrate Spring, doesn't she?  :)  Now try to contain yourself with what I am about to tell you.....today's release is showcasing two new stamp sets!  I know!  Two in one day....pretty awesome, right?!  For my card today, I chose to use the new stamp set, Burst of Kindness




Now, this beauty may look familiar to you....that is because the main image debuted as a digital image for purchase a while back but by popular demand....she is back, newly accessorized and available as a stamp set!  





I started by stamping my image with Memento's Tuxedo black ink, die cutting my image out then stamping my sentiment with Versafine's Onyx Black ink.  After using a ton of Copics to color my image, I added some gold leafing to the edges with my Krylon 18KT Gold Leafing pen and some shimmer with my Wink of Stella clear brush pen then set the panel aside.  I die cut a panel of blue card stock, stitched some patterned paper to it, layered my colored image panel with a scalloped die cut of white card stock and adhered it to my stitched panel.  I used foam tape to add some dimension.  Lastly, I adhered the assembled panels to a card base.  This card measures 4 1/8" x 5 3/8".





Do you ever wonder how on earth Marcella packs all of that glorious detail in to each of her images?  Yeah....me too...all the time.  :)



And here is one last lookie at that lovely image and the super sweet sentiment.  She really was so much fun to color up and I know you will enjoy it too!  :)  

So that is all for my card today, but you know my incredibly talented Bloomie sisters are bringing it, B-I-G TIME...so make sure you check out all of the floral goodness, leave a little blog love while you are there, then make plans to join us again for Day 3 of Power Poppy's Spring Fling stamp release.  Yay!  So looking forward to seeing you again soon...until then, take care!  :)
