A Little Kindness Card With Dies R Us

Hello Crafty Friends - I am here with a cute and easy card featuring Poppy Stamps and Dies.


Let's get started!

I gathered all the materials for the card. 


I die cut all the components and trimmed my cardstock and pattern paper. I die cut the trees twice.
I stamped my sentiment onto white cardstock. I matted the light blue cardstock onto the yellow pattern paper. 
 
Then, I adhered the green hill to the panel. Next, I adhered the light green trees onto the dark green trees. I wanted a lighter feel to the tree.
  

Next, I put the little sheep together. I used foam adhesive on the back of the sheep's body. I inlayed the head of the sheep. Then, I attached the legs with a bit of liquid and foam adhesive. Next, I adhered the hair and ears. 
  

Then, I used the Gelly Roll Pen in glitter to make small u shapes and dots on the sheep's body. I used a white Gelly Roll pen for the eyes.

I removed the backing from the adhesive and pressed the sheep into place. 
I adhered the card front panel to the card base.
 
Next, I adhered the flowers and the sentiment to the card panel. Then, I added a drop in each flower center of Nuvo Crystal Drops in pale gold.

Now, the card is complete!
