My first card for today uses the Best Mom Stamps in unique way as well as the Have A Nice Day Stamp Set and the previously released Unstoppable Stamps.

I know I have already told you how much I love the leaf/petal design in the Best Mom Stamps. Still, I couldn't resist using it one more time to create a fun background for the Have A Nice Day Stamp Set. I stamped it repeatedly in yellow to make a cheerful landing spot for Have A Nice Day Stamp Set which I stamped in black and highlighted with turquoise Nuvo drops. I cut this layer our with a square from the Silly Stitched Squares Dies. I created my cardbase using white cards stock, black ink, and a stamp from Unstoppable Stamps. I just can't resist a bit of black. I added a border to my card base with the large rectangle from the Silly Stitched Die Set. When I got everything layered, I wanted a little more of the turquoise color so I added some glitter tape. Here's a closer look:

My next card uses the Spring Wreath Die Set and the Hand Drawn Happiness Set.

This card was super simple! I started by blotching some purple watercolor on a piece of watercolor paper. I then cut my first wreath from this paper using the Spring Wreath Die Set. I used that as a guide for how big to watercolor my circle on my card front using the same purple but washed out a little more. Once, I had my watercolor circle, I stamped my sentiment from Hand Drawn Happiness in the center. I added my water colored wreath around the sentiment and then cut another from gold as well as some of the cute flowers from the Spring Wreath Die Set. I cut my gold wreath up and tucked these "branches" in my first wreath before added the flowers with foam tape. To complete the card, I added drips of purple watercolor here and there. Here's a closer peek:

My final card for today also uses Hand Drawn Happiness as well as the fun Shaker Tag Die Set and super cool Cover Up Die: Dotted Chevrons.

I started this card by creating the background. I cut the Cover Up Die: Dotted Chevrons from turquoise card stock and then cut variouse colors of paper to show through the holes of the die (pink,black, white, & gold). I trimmed this down and layered it on a black card base. Next, I got to work on my shaker. I cut the Shaker Tag Die Set in the same pink I used for the background and then added acetate for my window cut with the same Shaker Tag Die Set. Next, I cut a solid image with no window for the base of my shaker and stamped a sentiment from Hand Drawn Happiness in the center in black. I outlined the outer edges with foam tape and put in some sequins before added the top layer to the base. I shook it around for good measure and added it to my card front. Here you can see it a little better:
