For my first card tonight, I used the GORGEOUS new Oval Decorative Doily Die-namics. I LOVE that we FINALLY have a oval die, and it is the PERFECT size to fit a Pure Innocence image in, and makes for a WONDERFUL layering tool! It was used to cut out some MME Lost & Found Blush collection. I stamped the new a la mode Fight Like a Girl on X-Press It blending card, and then colored it with my Copics. I paired it with Bubblegum, Pure Poppy, and Black Licorice. My ribbon is from the Ribbon Carousel, and my brads are from Hedgehop Paper Crafts. I used my new FAVORITE Oval Tab Die-namics for my sentiment. The pink paper I used for her shirt and on the base are from the Authentique Uncommon pack.



For the inside, I stamped another girl on the inside, and used more of the same paper and dies. I also used more of the same brads, and some Charcoal Twine.



For my second card tonight, I started by stamping my Pure Innocence- Girl Doctor on X-Press It Blending card, and then colored her with my Copics. I then layered her with Sour Apple, Red Hot, and Fossil. My paper is from the MME Lime Twist Life of the Party pad. I used the new Postage Stamp Border Die-namics on one side of my image. I also used the new Bon Appetit Die-namics, but this time, I turned it into a pill bottle. I even cut one out of cork, so that I could make it look as if it had a stopper. My sentiment was cut out with the First Place Award Ribbon Die-namics. For my heart, I used the Notched Tag Die-namics. My ribbon is from the MFT Red Collection, and my brads are from Michael's.



For the inside, I used the Postage Stamp Border Die-namics, in layers, and a couple more of the Notched Tag Die-namics hearts. I also used another sentiment from this set.

Here is a look at all the Die-namics that I used, today.















Well, that is it for me for now! Be sure to check out Kim's Blog to see which other designers are participating in today's teasers.

For my card tonight, I started by stamping my Pure Innocence Calendula girl on X-Press It Blending card. I then colored her with my Copics, and paper pieced her dress with some MME Six by Six Away We Go paper. Instead of giving her socks, I gave her leggings, and no socks. Cute, huh!?! I then layered her with Sage Shadow, Orange Fizz, and Hot Fudge. For my sentiment, I used part of the Bon Appetit Die-namics. I used some more paper on the top of it, and then added some linen thread. You can't really see it on the outside, but I used the Postage Stamp Border Die-namics. My seam binding is from the Ribbon Carousel. I used brads from Michael's, and a spiral clip from Creative Express.







For the inside, I used more of the same paper and Die-namics border, and added another sentiment from this adorable set. I also used the Bon Appetit Die-namics to embellish it a little more. My sentiment was cut out using the First Place Award Ribbon Die-namics.
