Final day to enter Die Cut Divas July Birthday Challenge!

Hi there - I can't believe it's the end of July already! Today I'm part of the last day team at Die Cut Divas, sharing last minute inspiration for our July Birthday Challenge. Please link up by 9p Pacific time today and be sure to use a die cut &/or embossing folder in your birthday design!

As usual, I have a main card and a bonus for you. 

First up, another card using the June 2023 MFT kit (see previous HERE):

Supplies: Paper - Neenah Solar White;

My Favorite Things cardstock (Orange Zest, Lemon Drop, 

Grape Jelly & Limelight) and Petite Gingham 6x6 (retired)

Hero Arts Arctic and Bermuda cardstock & 

Park Lane medium jade (from an A2 card)

Dies - My Favorite Things All the Happy, Bold Blooms, 

Bold Greenery & Peaceful Greenery;

A Jillian Vance Design Stitched Dot Rectangle Backdrop Set

Stamps - My Favorite Things Happy Occasions & 

Hero Arts Lisa's Mix & Match Messages (retired)

Other - Hero Arts clear enamel dots; 

Copic G02 to shade bud stems; foam tape

Very simple - Die cut items, assemble layered flowers, shade some stems with Copic G02 & arrange elements. Stamp and fussy cut sentiment. Adhere to A2 card & add enamel dots - done! Should've added a strip behind part of the gingham so I didn't have a bump from the white, oh well...

And here's a bonus card using more Bold Blooms with a "happy" die cut from a favorite MFT birthday Blueprint set (one of the 7 still available). I love these sets!

Supplies: Paper - Neenah Solar White; Hero Arts gold glitter;

My Favorite Things cardstock (Orange Zest, Lemon Drop, 

Grape Jelly & Limelight)

and Petite Gingham 6x6 (retired)

BoBunny Boulevard 6x6 (for green 1/2 circle)

Park Lane medium jade (from an A2 card)

Dies - My Favorite Things Bold Blooms, Blueprints 26,

Blueprints 21 (retired), Stitched Blooms & Peaceful Greenery;

Stamps - My Favorite Things Happy Occasions 

Other - foam tape
