Good morning friends
Today I have another card for the Spring & Summer Coffee Lovers Blog Hop!
This card was a lot of fun to make, and it is totally a stash buster card! There was a leftover piece of patterned paper and I wanted to use it up. In fact, everything used were scraps etc, inducing the twine bow and banner scraps.
Inside I made a Pop-Up with another of my early Spring purchases, the Happy Birthday 3D Drop-ins by Stephanie Barnard.
How cute is this butterfly tag? It was a 'free with purchase' treat and I just adore it. The banner patterned paper piece was also a 'free with purchase' from a different retailer. I love it and promptly ordered two more sheets. Ha! Yes, I am a marketers dream. The sweet banners were cut for a different project that I didn't end up needing - they were actually in a couple of smaller pieces but I pieced them at the top of my card and dressed them up with some Nuvo Crystal Drops.
Finally, a side view so you can see the pop-up a little better.

I added a die cut Celebrate - the font makes it easy to curve so I had it follow the line of the banners. This red Soft Finish Card Stock from Elizabeth Craft Designs is so bright! I've actually used it a fair bit as it perfectly matched a patterned paper stack I was also trying to use up. Love these 'cactus in a mug' stamps too.

My stamping table looked so much better after this card was done and all those bits and pieces were used up. I love to use things up!
I'll be back tomorrow with another card for the Coffee Lover's Blog Hop ... and I hope you are enjoying the inspiration.
