Dutch Paper Crafts Beach Window Card

The release i am using is called the Marianne Design "Garden Release" for Dutch Paper Crafts.
The set includes, 2 bench seats, topiary, butterfly, wheelbarrow and watering can.

For this project i created a Beach Oval Window card using the fancy bench seat LR0258 from this release and the butterfly LR0261.

Dies Not in this release:
Marianne Passe Part-out oval- CR1241
Marianne Seashell/Starfish LR0230/LR0232
Spellbinders Grand Calibur scallop oval S4-111 (?)

What i did:
I did the exact same technique as i did with the Halloween Passe Part-out card, except i used this oval and the "extra large" scallop oval from Spellbinders.  I added the glitter butterflies from this release.  I also added the Marianne Starfish and seashell.  The paper is from K-Co.  The charm is from Spoilt Rotten beads in the UK..it has a cute little saying on the back side too.   I added burlap trim to the inside as well.  I used the Fabric glue to adhere the bench to it.

Catch a Web...

This super hero image at Digital Delights is called Spider Stevie.  My granddaughter is all about Spiderman right now.  She saw a show called Mission Marvel with Phineas and Ferb and fell in love with him..there were other Marvel heros, but she picked this one.  So i had to make this card, i can't wait until i get her comment.  I colored Spider Stevie black and red with the hope of giving him more of a Halloween look.

Here is the card i made for the Digital Delights Blog, using Spider Stevie and a sentiment from the Super Hero sentiment set:

Frou Frou in Pink

I have purposely combined 4 challenges together before i made my card, it's not always easy to do that before i make cards because when making DT cards they are done in advance..in most cases 2-4 weeks ahead of time.

This card is brand spanking new..just finished.. I am using a stamp from the Greeting Farm called Frou-Frou Birthday.

She is totally done in pink for Cut it Up Challenges and i've added a Spellbinders rectangle called Resplendent Rectangles S5-147 as my dies. I've also used a Martha Stewart leaf punch.
