When they are gone, they are gone. (use coupon code Marcia10 and save 10%). Oh... and this gorgeous paper was part of the Clique Kits Spring card kit. There just might be a few of those left too.

On Trend cards - Top Dog Dies

Hello blogging friends. I have a couple more cards to share with you from the Clique Kits Spring card kit. This kit is so fabulous!! I love this Altenew Stamp set and these gorgeous papers from the My Mind's Eye On Trend collection. I combined the kit with some of my favorite Top Dog Dies and came up with these pretties....

I stamped Celebrate on vellum using some VersaMark ink and then embossed it with some gold embossing powder. I cut the vellum slightly smaller than my card front and used my Top Dog Dies Dotted Border Die to get the lovely edge on the bottom. This die set is one of my most used! Can you blame me, it adds great interest to my card. The ribbon at the top is all I need to attach the vellum to the card front. I love that the vellum softens the pattern and really let's that title shine.

Unfortunately, I needed a sympathy card too. My husband's aunt passed away last week. This beautiful Top Dog Dies Cross Die works wonderfully on a sympathy card.

To add some interest to the Top Dog Dies Vintage A2 Mat Die. I stamped an image on the front with some VersaMark ink. See the butterflies and flowers?

Supplies:

Clique Kits Spring Card Kit

Hello blogging friends. I have a few more cards to share with you using the Clique Kits Spring Card Kit. This kit is amazing!!! Gorgeous My Mind's Eye On Trend papers and die-cuts, gold stickers, sequins, and an awesome stamp set from Altenew. Take a look...

I used the Altenew stamp set here for the Hello and then fussy cut it out. I LOVE that the set has little text as well. Combined, they make truly eye-catching sentiments on cards.

I knew with all those pretty sequins, I would make a shaker card. I cut this gem with my Silhouette on gold cardstock. Using a couple layers of vellum, to hold my sequins, I carefully stitched around the gem using gold thread. It sets off the gem pattern paper wonderfully!

A different Altenew sentiment from the same stamp set, stamped and fussy cut out again. The kit comes with exclusive flair buttons and I used one on this card.

Everyone needs Birthday cards, right? With those gold My Mind's Eye stickers in the kit, I couldn't resist making a few birthday cards too.

If you would like to purchase a Clique Kits Spring Card Kit for yourself, use coupon code Marcia10 and save yourself 10%! There are only a few left!!

Clique Kits March Blog Share

Hello blogging friends. Today is the Clique Kits March blog share. If you want to start at the beginning then head on over to the Clique Kits  blog.

Our prompt for the blog share was to use some neon colors. Easy to do with the awesome photo overlays that were included in the kit. I chose to scrap this photo I took of my daughter and her pet rabbit Wallace. The bright green in the photo coordinates with the green in the We R Memory Keepers Love Notes collection and adds to that neon challenge prompt.

I love these Cosmo Cricket word stickers. They are a great way to add journaling on a layout (or use them for your card sentiments). The black and white flair included in the kit is fabulous as are these black paper doilies.

One of the add-ons I purchased was an AlteNew origami stamp set. I am so in love with this stamp set! I decided to use the origami butterfly stamp on my layout. I even found a similar origami butterfly in the Silhouette on-line store and by welding butterflies together created this awesome background die cut.

I do believe this layout is one of my favorites so far this year. (I know.... I said that last month too!). These kits will have you creating your favorite layouts and cards too because they are so well put together!

Shop the Clique Store for other kits, planner supplies, stamps (like these AlteNew origami stamps) and more. Use coupon code Marcia10 and save yourself 10%. Check out the Spring card kit too. Here is a sneak peek of a card I made with it ...
