Coming Soon to Power Poppy

Oh my Power Poppy is releasing some amazing clear stamp sets on July 1st. You can breathe in a dynamic array of cardmaking possibilities. Here’s something extra-exciting: Members of the Instant Gardener design team, who primarily showcase our digital designs, are joining in for the next five days sharing their creations as well. 

Today we have Woodland Carpet.

there will be flowers galore (would you expect anything less?) including my first botanical background stamp. Some images are LARGE and in charge. I’ve tucked in mushrooms, ferns, and fantastic sentiments. Several of the stamp canvases are larger than usual, as there was just too much goodness to be contained in a standard 4 x 6". A treasured classic design is being introduced alongside a fresh new illustration — you’ll just have to stick with us all week to see what we have in store.

And on our release day, July 1, we’ve got a very special treat in store... just wait a few more days to find out what it is!

"Check" This!

Yeah! Check This!  One of the must have dies just out!  How versitile this die is.  Well let me show you.  When you are done you will be hypmotized to go to the bottom and click the link!  I would hurry!

It is not just a checked die.....use your imagination.

Try weaving it with wood grain paper.  You will have a cool basket look.  Try it with just white paper, now that is classy. 

Ok, now cut one out of black or any color paper (depending on your project) and one from white.Use the color and place in a diamond shape.  Finish with enamel dots in the center....or not.  stare at it for a while, it starts to mess with your eyes. 

Now reverse it.  You just cut one out of black and one from white.  Place a colored sheet of card stock on the back of the black checked.  Use the leftover white squares and place them in the diamond shape in the center of the square! You can decorate the square or not.  For the project I have in mind I wanted it decorated. 

Can you say "FRAME!" yes I have a plan for this as well and I've already started.  Decorated or not it is an awesome frame.  

So just like shrimp, there are so many things you can make with this one die!  Gumbo isn't one of them, sorry.

Thanks to visiting today!
