DT: Bloom

Dear scrappers,
This is my DT post for Connie Can Crop. I made a card using the digital image, 

BUGFFLBLOCKS FUNKY FLOWER BLOCKS 

FROM THIS MONTH'S SPONSOR:



Here is my card, made with many leftovers from other projects:



Inside:


Some close ups: 



I tried to add as much shine as I could using the metallic stabilos  and the dazzles. The leftover sunflower sticker had some glitter on it and the cabachon in the middle. I included
 some vines leftover cuts from an old project to add some dimension to the image as well.






I used the following materials: including rub-on sentiment and Authentic 6x6 paperpack from Connie's Crafty cart ...





I hope you enjoyed this card and decide to join us in this month's challenge:

I made this card out of a sample postcard I had done for my Cricut demo job at Michaels long time ago.


I added it to a 6x6 piece of printed cardstock, I got from Connie and trimmed the cardstock to the right size.


I used the negative cut from a previous project as stencil and also for the sentiment inside the card:




 The USA letters, are also negative cuts from other projects, which I doodle around with red glitter marker and some rhinestones from Connie as well.

For the rest of the sentiment, I used leftover stamped sentiments on watercolor paper also from a previous project:

Most supplies are from CTMH, and some American Crafts cardstock.
I hope you like this crazy recycling/ using my stash project.

For this challenge, I decided to make a wall hanging for my husband's birthday this month:

The whole size of this insert for a frame is 12.5 x 13.5 in


My husband loves Stella, thus, when I saw this Bugaboo digital image, I thought of him

I used some retired CTMH papers,  little B tape, decoFoil, watercolor paper, and TH distress markers. All, which I haven't used in a while. And my laminating machine to do the blue foiling of the laser printed image.


I added some liquid glass to the glasses and the cup.

My supplies:

I hope you enjoy this simple project and decide to join us.

Many blessings,

Vicky Tovar
