I enjoyed using some of the new Memory Box dies that Santa brought me for the Splitcoaststampers Sketch Challenge.
Here is the sketch we had to work with. This is lots more layers than I usually use but it was fun to stretch myself. Two of my new dies create a long border cut and I thought they would be perfect for this layout.
The Spring Border is so sweet and looked cute as a background for my Country House. I cut both dies twice, once in pink and once in green. I cut the flowers of the pink off and layered over the green flowers and cut the green trim sections of the house and layered them over the pink house for contrast.
I applied Stickles to the flowers and house trim for a touch of sparkle. The sentiment is from Papertrey Board and Beams set.
My second project was made using the Memory Box Country Landscape. I cut it out a few times in green, crimped them and layered one over the other. I cut a couple sets out in white and sponged pink on the houses and cut them and added to the landscape to create a sweet neighborhood.
This sentiment is also from the Papertrey Board and Beams set.
Thanks for stopping in today. I really appreciate it.

OMGosh, I always feel spoiled whenever you create with PINK … it’s such a wonderful sight! Both cards are very creative and scream of your unique style, Kittie.
Found your site in November and fell in love with your style and cards. This one is just another reason I keep coming back again and again. Susan M. Hansen
I recently discovered your blog and I am in love. I am so happy that you have a week off from work for a selfish reason. That means you will post more of your beautiful cards. I really like the window die you used yesterday. Do you know where I can get it?
Lovely cards. Am really liking the colour combo of pink and green very nice.
they are both very cute and creative!
So pretty card.
What fun, creative cards! Love the die-cuts and flowers. The single house is neat and the landscape w/the houses and trees is so cute. Great cards! 🙂
