Power Poppy Wish You Luck

Welcome back to Robin's Crafting Nest!

My brother in law was just recently married on St. Patricks Day.  

It was a beautiful wedding in Hilton Head South Carolina.  Since both the 

brides side and the grooms side are both Irish and they were getting married

on St. Patricks Day I thought this wonderful image from Power Poppy was 

appropriate for their wedding card.  This image is called Wish You Luck.  

I just love that is a bridal bouquet of shamrocks.  What a creative idea 

for a bridal bouquet.

Pink And Main Scentsational

Welcome back to Robin's Crafting Nest!

Today I am working with some adorable stamps from Pink & Main.

Do you ever have a smell that you just can't get enough of?

As my family knows my favorite smell is Skunk! 

I think I may be the only one in the world who's favorite smell is skunk.  My entire family cringes when I say it is my favorite smell, they just don't understand.  I don't know why it is my favorite but I love that smell.

When I saw the Scentsational stamp set from Pink & Main I knew it was one that needed to be added to my stamp stash.  This stamp set comes with 4 adorable skunks, 3 scent filled sentiments, and lots of additional scene setting stamps.  Aren't they adorable!

Harvest Wreath - DoveArt Studios

Welcome back!

The Creative Basics Dies by Rhea design team is showing off our work this week at Passionate Paper Creations and Friends Facebook page and the Passionate Paper Creations blog.  We have made some wonderful cards to share with you to give lots of ideas on how to use these dies in different ways.

Today I created an easel card using three different die sets in Rhea's new release.

I started with a piece of 6 inch x 12 inch card stock.  I scored the card stock at 3 inches and 6 inches to create the card folds.  I then used the largest Half Double Stitched Circles die at the 3 inch line to create the popup for the easel card.

For my stamp I chose the beautiful Harvest Wreath from DoveArt Studios which is available at C.C. Designs.  I used the largest Double Stitched Circles die to frame my wreath.  The largest circle coordinates with the largest half circle.  The wreath fits perfectly within this circle.

For my sentiment I used the Fancy Rectangle Build A Card Die Set for the frame and the beautiful leaf.

Picture from the side so you can see how it easels.  The popped up sentiment die frame helps to hold the easel open so it stays in one place.

Here are the Copic Markers I used to color the wreath:

Raspberries: RV63, RV66, RV69

Grapes: YG03, YG05, YG07

Holly Berries: R24, R27, R29, R89

Small Berries: R11, R12

Leaves: YG93, YG95, YG97, YG99, G24, G28, G29, E19

You can find the full release of Creative Basics Dies by Rhea through C.C. Designs.

I really enjoyed making this card because I have never made an easel card before.  I am very happy with the way it came out.  Hope you enjoy!
