Hello friends!!! I've got a few fun cards to share for you today... both are very crisp and clean.

My daughter, Pepper, turned 14 this year and she has several friends with birthdays that are just around the corner. I wanted to create something fun and bright for one of the.

I stamped the diamonds first then stamped the Big Birthday Numbers over them. I then hand trimmed the numbers then added glitter. It's very sparkly in person!

The sentiment from Big Birthday Wishes is stamped with VersaMark then heat embossed with white EP powder.

The inside has a sentiment stamped over a leftover piece of the diamond stamped cardstock.

I created accent flags to mimic the strip on the front. More glitter accents the Circle Stax.

And now... a poppy card to show off a little of my new Pretty Poppies stamp set and Poppies and Leaves Die-namics!

I wanted to create a crisp and modern card... with a classic feel to it too. Color can help create feeling and mood. Purple and green are classic colors and that add the feeling I wanted. The cheveron pattern and the layout add to the modern feel... and the strong clean lines and use of white cardstock make it crisp!

The Grape Jelly and Gumdrop Green Ink are great together huh! I used

The chevron pattern is carried over to the inside and I also used the poppy poem strip for a tie in to the Thank You sentiment on the front of the card.
