So much to share this time with these new dies that are the newest release from Dutch Paper Crafts,  that this blog post could be "endless"  just like the crafts you will be able to make with these dies!!!  However, i will make 3 separate posts.

I am first going to share the cards that you could make as a gift set or something that you could whip up quickly for a card you might want to use immediately!

I had some time this week to use an image i recently purchased at Digital Delights.  I enjoy randomly using my images!  Not only that, but i am having fun with my new dies from Joy Crafts that i purchased at Dutch Paper Crafts!

Here is my card using Chef Luigi!  I think this card would be great for any gender...
  Aren't these flowers awesome..i happened to see them at the store Tuesday Morning..of course they had just one pack left..and i've used both of the red flowers for a card already!   They are so cool they look like glass!

For someone special!

I have made this card for a friend i met on line recently.  She is having a birthday, well by the time this post has gone live her birthday will be past...

I am using a great sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches to make this card.  The sketches are so perfect that i use them all week long.

Here is my card using Tilda with Amaryllis from Magnolia and the sentiment is from Digital Delights:
   I used a charm from my stash and a Doo Hickey border die.  The leaves are a MS punch.

The weekly sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches:

Baby, "It's You"!

{Pin}spirational Challenges this week is all about babies, or the white/pink combo..or whatever inspires you when you see the weekly {Pin}spirational photo!

This is my last week on the DT at {Pin}spirational Challenges..Deanne and the team are awesome and anyone looking for a DT home would be lucky to be there!
 
Here is my card using "Cuddle Cloud Baby" from MelJen's Designs:
Again, i used my Marianne Creatables die LR0242...it's a wonderful die and so worth the money.  You can get this die just by requesting it from Dutch Paper Crafts...i believe she has the best shipping!  I also used a flower from Michaels $2 bin.  Leaf punch is MS.

This image from MelJen's Designs is a great beginner's image as there is not much to color and you don't need many copics/markers for this.  One other suggestion would be to paper piece the cloud for more contrast...a print cloud would be wonderful!

Congratulations with a sketch

This is one of my favorite wedding images and i've used this tons of times.  It is also my favorite because it can be colored up quickly. 

I am making this card for The Greeting Farm Double Take challenge, the image is called "Kissy Kissy"
One thing i love about this card is the new die i just used, it is from Joy Craft and is a Lace Rectangle EC-DIE-015956 die..it is available at Dutch Paper Crafts..all you have to do is email her.

Here is the sketch for this challenge:
