Loving Featured Stamper Challenges

Good Morning!  Another day of crafting and the beginning of spring break.  Add to that that it is the Lord's Day and you have a great day ahead of you!
I just love playing along with the Featured Stamper Challenge over at SCS.  It really helps get the creative juices flowing!
Here is the card I made for today's featured stamper:
All products for this card are Stampin' Up.  I started with a card base of Daffodil Delight and added a layer of black cs.  I stamped the Lucky Limeade panel with the crown from the Elementary Elegance set and the embossed with the houndstooth embossing folder.  The Poppy Parade Panel is embossed with the Stripes embossing folder.  I stamped 3 balloons in Lucky Limeade, Poppy Parade and daffodil Delight- the stamp is from the Party this Way set.  They were cut out and mounted on a piece of black cs that was embossed with the Fancy Frames folder.  The black cs and one of the balloons is popped up on dimensionals.  I used a piece of Lucky Limeade 1/8" organza ribbon and a brad to separate the panels and finished off the card with a sentiment from same set punched out with the Modern Label punch.  Embroidery floss was used for the balloon strings.

What a fun card to make!  Thanks so much for stopping by and your comments are greatly appreciated!

A great new sketch is up at OWH today.   Broke out a new stamp set, You're My Type, and gave it a whirl. 
I started with a card base of Poppy Parade and then added a layer of white Patterns dsp.  My side panel is from the Attic Boutique Series in the mini catalog and is backed with black cs.  The central panel is So Saffron embossed with the Houndstooth embossing folder (my new fav). The typwriter is embossed in black, cut out, and popped up on dimensionals.  I finished off this card with black and white baker's twine (non SU) and a So Saffron button. 

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Blessings!
