{Cards} Copics, Dies, Summer Fresh!

What do you get when you combine awesome Sizzix dies, Hero Arts Stamps, Copic markers and Summer Fresh paper from Simple Stories? 

Shelly here, with the answer to that question: you get beautiful cards full of rich colors, dimension, hand colored die cut images and more. Check it out...

This "Happy Day" A2 size card is on a green cardstock base, boasts two pennants (WRMK) and a die cut, pop dotted butterfly from the Butterflies #3 collection of stamps and dies from Sizzix and Hero Arts. Here's the inside:

As you will see throughout this collection the Butterflies #3 stamps and dies have been used to create pretty (and dimensional) flowers and butterflies.

On the card below you will see flowers layered on top of each other (pop dotted), the word "Love" die cut from a mat piece (also die cut) using Tim Holtz Alterations from Sizzix "Ornamental" die and "Love" movers and shapers die.

The 6x6 paper pad from Simple Stories containing the Summer Fresh line of papers and tiny/small die cut journaling pieces and titles works great on cards. (Inside below):

A flip card...

...allows the butterfly to peak through and be seen from the front and the "inside" of the card when it is "flipped".

This card was die cut from a Sizzix Flip-Card die. It is about 5"x5" so it will require a larger envelope than an A2 size card will use.

And one final A2 size card, again featuring die cut stamped images colored with Copic markers to create vibrate, beautiful die cut images. (Use dimensional pop dots to give your die cut shapes a bit of a "wow" factor!)

I hope you enjoyed taking a look at some fun summer cards you can create using dies, papers, and markers all purchased at The Scrapbooking Studio, Moline, IL.
