Pop Up Veggie Basket! & Giveaway

Thanks for stopping by because it's a great day for a visit! I'm hopping along with Pink and Main and they have a great giveaway today if you can hop along with us!
They have an awesome collection of pop up dies in their shop that make creating special fold/interactive cards as easy as 1., 2., 3.!
Just die cut the frame and then cut out the accent pieces in your choice. SO as an example here I've cut out the light brown basket and green insert pieces and then cut the fruit and leaves that are glued over the larger pieces.
There's still ways you can make it your own like adding your own special sentiment and selecting the cardstock colors of your choice. I also added a little sprig of tomatoes to the front of my card.
The best part ever is that this card folds completely FLAT and fits in an A2 size envelope!

And now the part you've been waiting for.. the Giveaway!

Pop Up Flamingo

I'm linking up at Creative Creases today! Their challenge is totally devoted to fun fold cards. I have always thought special fold cards were intimidating. I create to escape and the minute I have to start measuring and focusing too much on the card base and less on the card front I start to withdraw.
Several die companies have found the solution for me. You simply cut the dies and then assemble them to create your card. There is still some flexibility because you can change you image color and place accents wherever you like.
The Flamingo pop up from Pink & Main is so cute! It's summer on paper! I made this one for my Mom. She's the flamingo gal in my family! She loves that tropical vibe and loves the feminine pink!
I took a few different views so you can see the way the card comes together. The best part of all is that it folds completely flat so it's postal service friendly!
I hope you find some time to play because I'm learning and I'd sure love to see your makes!

Layle By Mail Season Pass - Fall Edition

Today I’m sharing four cards made with the latest Layle By Mail Season Pass 2.0 for Summer/Fall. The paper pack includes (12) exclusive 12x12 double-sided papers (and the 12x12 cover sheet also has an additional pattern on the back side!). The papers are a high quality matt finish, and the pack now includes a full sheet of monthly cut-apart cards in 3x4 & 4x6 sizes.
The three months covered in this Season Pass are July through September. You’ll find summer vibes and cool treats for July including sweet lemonade, ice pops, and of course a splash of patriotic red white and blue! August celebrates time outdoors with butterflies and sunshine! August celebrates the beginning of fall when we’re spending a little more time indoors with woodland critters, apples, and cozy elements like stacks of books and tea time. The kit is designed to help you capture the season’s most meaningful moments with ease and style. My cards today focus on September and early Fall vibes!
Season Pass 2.0... a quarterly program/kit with exclusive products for memory keeping enthusiasts, including paper, die cuts, rub-ons, stickers & stamps. Perfect for traveler's notebooks, planners, journals, scrapbook pages, mini books, cards and more.
I like to use the 3x4” journaling cards to create focal points for my designs. They are usually a solid color which makes them perfect for layering over busy pattern papers. Some even have printed sentiments so all you need to do is add embellishments!
This time the Season Pass has a second set of coordinating die cuts of cute woodland critters. These little guys are absolutely adorable! They’re perfect for making scene cards because you’ll also find trees, flowers and some landscape borders in the pack!
You’ll also find rub ons, a stamp set and wordstrip stickers that make creating even more fun! The kit has everything you need to make all of my cards. The only items I added are the card bases, solid cardstock matts, adhesives and gems from my stash.
I love to send notes to family and friends so they know I’m thinking of them. I know they will be delighted to see these adorable critters!
Here's a photo of all four cards together so you can see the variety of things you can make.

I love the Season Pass- it’s a great way to treat yourself to the best each month has to bring!
I'm linking up to Love Those Pretty Papers Challenge where it's always about the patterns!   There's an optional theme of look to the skies!  I'm looking up for falling leaves!
