Picnics And Trolls

Good Morning!

Still in a Scrapbook Posting kind of mood!

June 2019

Another Picnic and music at Derby Street!

We had a lot of fun at these gatherings.

Penny really came out of her shell.

Amy Design Musical Stave die layered.

Die Versions A Little Lime Font die.

Sometimes after the outdoor fun

we'd pop on over to Kohl's, which is right next door.

At home we always listened to old albums, Winnie The Pooh, Mary Poppins etc and

all of the movie soundtracks on Alexa. Penny is very familiar with the Trolls' songs.

While in Kohl's she started screaming.....Trollllllllls.....I had no idea what she was

talking about.....until I looked halfway across the store.

She saw this Trolls hat and needed to have it LOL

Of course, my dear! It was on clearance for like $3 Ha!

September 2019

She loved it! And wore it well!

Alphabet dies.

Stampin' Up! Botanical Builders dies.

Wrapped Flowers

Good Monday Morning!

Back again with another post at the Dies R Us Inspirational Blog.

Today's card is for Mother's Day, which is fast approaching. This year it is on May 8th.

Flowers are always such a sure bet for Mother's Day!

I first created a paper cone to place my bouquet of poppies inside. I used the beautiful Mix N' Match Poppies die from Frantic Stamper. Gorgeous! I die cut them out of water color paper and then proceeded to paint them. Glued several on the cone then layered a piece of tulle, giving more dimension, and then I added more pretty yellow poppies. Arranged a few of the die leaves around and sentiment tag, Die-Namics, Stitched Traditional Tags. Decorated the cone itself with Polka Dot Designer Paper, Baker's Twine and a pretty little Heart Charm. Found some beautiful Designer Paper in my stash with gold accents and created my background. Sheer Yellow Ribbon and mini Candy Dot for accents.

I knew the cone needed just one more embellishment so I grabbed the Musical Stave die by Amy Design. I cut it out of Toner Paper and then ran it through my Mini Minc Machine with Gold Foil.....WOW! The detail is AHmazing!!!

I also added a butterfly using the Butterfly Set # 2 by, Dies R Us. I cut 2 different ones, one in teal and the other from Toner Paper, again running it through my Mini Minc Machine with Gold Foil. Another WOW!!!
