Have a Magical Day Card

Hello!  This is Sukie and today I'm sharing a project for my design team post.  The new Magical Fantasy dies are perfect for making all kinds of unique creations.  I love all of the whimsical designs from this release.

I found this scrap of confetti paper left over from another project in my scrap box which inspired the colors of my card.

I die cut the Unicorn Cupcake in white card stock and shaded it with my Oxide Inks and adhered all of the pieces.  I die cut the sentiment from the Magical Unicorn Dreams set and shaded it to coordinate with the cupcake.  The gorgeous doily is from the Nested Stitched Doily set.

I created my A2 sized card by layering the tiny checkered pattern with the confetti strip and white card stock.

Next, the doily was placed on the top half of my card with the unicorn centered on top of the doily.

The oversized sentiment was anchored on the white card stock along with the tiny stars from the same die set.

To finish off my card I stamped a partial sentiment from the Scrappy Moms (retired) Countless Occasions stamp set and pop dotted the pieces to create the phrase.

Here are the dies I used on my card available in the shop:

DT Samples w/Spring & Magical Fantasy Dies (Day 3)

Hello Scrapping Cottage Friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit today. We are sampling cards from our Spring and also our new Magical Fantasy release.

There are 27 new designs in the Magical Fantasy release. And for a limited time the individual dies are on sale at 25% off. We want to give your some ideas for your own card making. So let's get started with our samples for today.

Card 1:  Our first sample today is from Jeanne Knobbe. She created a card in a box using the new Princess Dress Up, Sweet Unicorns and Magical Unicorn Dreams dies. A card-in-a-box card is a wonderful way to give the recipient an extra "gift" that can be displayed long after the birthday is over.
She also used some older dies  - Spring Window, Spring Grass, Easter Bunny and Chicks. Jean said working with the Princess Dress Up dies reminded her of playing with paper dolls only better. So much fun choosing the dress and hairstyle for the princess.  This card would be perfect for any little (or big) girl who loves unicorns and all things fairytale.

Card 2:  The next sample is from Sukie Dhillon. She used the super cute Frog Prince die to create a creative special occasion card. She used doily dies as a backdrop for her "prince" and surrounded with a few sprigs of greenery and coordinating flowers.  The happy couple who receive this card are sure to live happily ever after.

Card 3: The next sample is one that I (Mary Marsh) created. I used the new Unicorn Cupcake  + Fairytale Birthday dies and designed a whimsical birthday card. A card like this along with a Unicorn stuffed animal would be an ideal birthday gift for any little girl. It would definitely bring a happy smile as she opened it.



Card 4:  Our last sample for today is from Anja Zurga. She also created a card with a cupcake using the Spring Lamb Cupcake die. The distress ink and white paint splatters are a beautiful backdrop for the sweet little lamb. You could use this card for a variety of occasions- Easter, Birthday, Thank you or even a thinking of you. Thinking out of the box gives you more use of your seasonal dies.

Well that's our samples for today. I hope the team has given you some fresh ideas for creative ways to use the new dies. Stop by the Blog again tomorrow for our final day of DT samples.
