My first card features the sweet set called Spread Your Wings. I love that there is a die set (Birds and Nest Dies) to match! I colored the images with copics before cutting them out. I created a little scene with Fancy Foliage dies, Clouds and Raindrops dies, Layered Lacy Squares dies and the Daisy Chain Background Die. I added little touches of stickles to the little eggs and birds to complete the card. Here is a look at the inside:
The sentiment is cut out with a Vintage Flourish Pattern die.
Here is my second card:
You know I had to do a shabby card, right? :)
The sentiment is from Belles Vignes and is cut out with a Pennant die. I used lots of papers from the Shabby Rose Paper Collection. The new gorgeous Fancy Fritillary Butterfly die is the focal point, along with the little flowers and leaves from the Birds and Nest die set. The circle is cut with a Matting Circles die and layered over a Doily die cut. I added a few Fancy Foliage die cuts and some pearls too. Then I used a toothbrush dipped in white paint, scraping my nail across the brush bristles to get some splatters.
Here are the ODBD products I used today:

Wonderful cards; love the details, especially on the shabby chic card. Thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteI am just now getting into what I call fancy cards so I was glad to see that you have given me an example on the ODBD. I realize that your card is shabby chic but this is a good thing for me to study too. I love the ODBD stamps and dies which I just recently discovered. I love the softness of your card (mine are always so INTENSE!) and the layering. You chose such beautiful flowers, leaves and flourishes. Now.....to get to practicing!
ReplyDeletelovely details on your card... the tiny blossoms are so beautiful..
ReplyDeleteThey're both gorgeous, Sandee, but that second shabby card is over the top beautiful!! Love the way you tucked in all the flowers, leaves and scrolly dies around the butterfly (which I really love in white)!
ReplyDeleteLove your beautiful cards!
ReplyDeleteWhat pretty cards! I like them both.
ReplyDeleteI love the purity of "trust in God" card the white on white makes a strong statement. Thank You for the inspiration & beauty

Wow Sabrina - both creations are so sweet and beautiful! Your little birdies on the first are colored so beautifully. Your second card just took my breath away. You managed to pack so many little pretties into such a small space - and do it in a way that is beyond gorgeous. Your shabby style on this card is more inspiration that I know what to do with LOL! Love them both.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
