Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with Allison Okamitsu

Hi!

Welcome to another Crazy Crafters Blog Hop.  Today we're joined by special guest Allison Okamitsu who is all the way over in Canada.  I've been following Allison for a while as I love her card designs and style so I'm pretty excited that she's joining us today!

While I was browsing through Allison's blog, looking for a card to CASE (Copy and Selectively Edit), I came across this card.  I've seen a few cards lately where die cuts have been used to create the background and I really like the effect so I knew straight away that this was the card I was going to CASE.

To create the background for my card, I used Pink Pirouette cardstock and die cut a number of different size circles using the Layering Circles Framelits Dies and the 1-3/4" Circle Punch.  After working out their placement, I then adhered them onto another piece of Pink Pirouette cardstock and trimmed the cardstock down to size.

I then stamped the unicorn from the Magical Day Stamp Set and coloured it in using Stampin' Blends (Smoky Slate, Pool Party, Daffodil Delight and Pink Pirouette) before cutting it out using the Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies.

The 'happy birthday' greeting is from the Teeny Tiny Sentiments Stamp Set and I created a little banner for the greeting using the Classic Label Punch. 

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look at my creation. I would love to hear from you so please feel free to leave a comment!

Make sure you check out the rest of the blog hop as there's plenty more to see and lots of amazing creations to inspire you.
