Simon Monday Challenge - We're Going Around In Circles

Here is Simon Monday Challenge - We're Going Around In Circles, below is the challenge photo:


And here is the card I made to attend this challenge:



I was inspired with Jennifer McGuire's Frame Die Techniques and used my circle dies to make the colorful circles with my leftover cardstocks. I used Gina K Designs' stencil on the white cardstock with different colors of Distress Oxide inks. I stamped "I appreciate your kindness" (from Birch Press Design's Love and Miss You stamp set) in the middle of the card. Then, I cut half on my colorful circle frame die and attach them on top and bottom of my card. Below is another look of the card:


Supplies:
Cardstock: PTI, MFT, Gina K Designs
Ink Pads: Distress Oxide inks, Archival ink

Stay Crafty With Hero Challenge #6 - Out Of The Box

Here is Stay Crafty With Hero Challenge #6 - Out Of The Box, below is the challenge photo:



And here is the card I made to attend this challenge:


I was inspired with Jennifer McGuire's "faux embossing folder with die" technique and made this card. I used Hero Art's flower die to cut from a piece of magnetic sheet (see below).


Then I used this magnetic piece and put some lilac ink to dry embossed the background. I stamped Hero Arts' small solid flower on a piece of white cardstock with different shades of purple and cut it out with a circle die. I attached a purple gem in the middle of the flower and brushed some pearlescent purple pen around the circle. I stamped "you make a difference" (from Hero Arts' Beautiful World stamp set) on the background and attach the circle flower with foam tapes. Finish the card by dropping some Nuvo dream drops on the background. Below is another look of the card:


Supplies:
Cardstock: PTI, Stampin' Up
