More Nordic Flowers & a Heart!

Hey everyone - it's the last day for the June Die Cut Diva Color Challenge! You can see today's Diva post here which includes the required color palette.  Below you'll see the card I made for our final day inspiration with all the card details, plus a bonus! You have until 9pm Pacific time today to enter your creation.


Supplies: Paper - My Mind's Eye Lavender;
DCWV A2 card; scraps
Dies - Poppystamps Simple Floral Bundle,
Nordic Drifting Flowers, Nordic Majestic Bloom
(retired at PS but HERE at Frantic Stamper) & 
Teardrop Butterflies (retired but still HERE at Frantic Stamper);
Other - Altenew enamel dot; foam tape

Our sponsor is Poppystamps who has generously offered a $20 gift card for our randomly selected June winner.


I used a preformed A2 card in the darker reddish color. Added a texty pattern over the lightest palette color that I'd die cut with a stitched rectangle. Added a brown scrap strip. I had leftover Nordic flowers from my previous June Diva cards. I added them to stems & foliage from the Simple Floral set. I also had a leftover Teardrop butterfly so added it. A sentiment strip from the bits box finished the card - the stamp is from an old Hero Arts set & the stitched banner might be from a retired MFT set. It's been in the bits box forever!

Since my Simple Floral set is newly used, I'll add my card to Darnell's June NBUS #75.

Ready for a bonus? Here's a quick and easy card with more simple die cutting, plus some embossing.


Supplies: Paper - DCWV A2 card; 
Neenah Solar White; scraps
Dies - Poppystamps Happy Birthday Streamer Script
& Vintage Scalloped Heart
(retired at PS but HERE at Frantic Stamper); 
Embossing Folder - Pink and Main Birthday Wishes
Other - Altenew enamel dots; foam tape

Frantic Stamper is having a going-out-of-business sale & has loads of hard to find items. I don't get anything from them for saying this - I just like Fran & have ordered there many times over the years. Sorry to see them leaving the biz!!

Thanks for stopping by and have a crafty day!
