SISTER STAMPS BIRTHDAY BLOG HOP - DAY 3

Happy Saturday, fellow crafters!  Hope you are all enjoying your weekend and enjoying lovely weather wherever you are!  Today is Day 3 of Sister Stamps Birthday Blog Hop, and if you came here from the sweet and talented Linda's blog, you are in the right place.  Today I'd like to introduce you to "Mariko," carrying a gift in her hand!  I think she is so adorable! Look at her:
Today's card is a 5.5" square.  I used a MS Deep Edge "Daisy Lace" punch and punched out the sides of the card front, leaving about a 1/4" border on the top and bottom to keep the card intact.  The center panel is a piece of wrapping paper I purchased from a local (Heiko) packaging supply store.  The pink flowers are all embossed and feels like "puffy paint" (I don't know how else to explain it LOL!).
I just love Mariko and Miyoko (introduced on Thursday), so I made another card with these two cuties:
So here's "Miyoko" on the front of a Circle Flip-It card (Sizzix die) and I placed her on a Sizzix "Flowers #3" die-cut that looks like a "sakura" flower.  Again I used some wrapping paper, this time in pink, and added a border using the MS  "Cherry Blossom Trim" punch. 
Here's "Mariko" on the inside of the flip card:
Thank you for stopping by today and please come back tomorrow for Day 4 of Sister Stamps Birthday Blog Hop.  
The next stop on your journey is to the sweet and talented Jenny's blog!
Warm Aloha Hugs,

Wow! The lacy black border is so dramatic. and cherry blossoms are my favorite---the 2nd card is cherry blossom heaven.

Jenny said...

Oh my! You are really making me want that MS flowery lacey punch on the first card! I had it in my basket, then put it back.. but I think I need to get it! And your flip it die is so cute! I had a similar idea to put that sakura looking flower behind them, but never did it, so I'm glad you did! We are thinking alike again!

Mimi said...

Oh Cami, both of these cards are so SUPAH KAWAII!!! I'm just lovin' seeing all the special cards you've created using this Sisters Stamps release. Your use of the MS border punch on the front of your first card is so cool! Gotta try that! And what a great idea to use the pretty wrapping papers from Heiko for your cards!
