Welcome to my projects for the 15th Scrapy Land Challenge!
Today's green projects feature the Die-Namites "It's Spring" with:
A7 size Spellbinders Card Creators dies and Spellbinders Grands
with an A2 size Die-Namites die.
I have also created an A8 size card using the A2 size Die-Namites die and a Sue Wilson Gemini Series Phoenix Set.
In addition are two very simple A2 (4.5" by 5.5") cards.
It was fun combining the shapes and three sizes.
The theme is "ANYTHING GOES" using any die manufacturer which Scrapy Land sells". Scrapy Land sells over 40 brands of dies, including overseas products, and many are discounted.
The prize is a $15 gift card - good for anything in the Scrapy Land store!

This should give you an idea of the size of the Die-Namites "It's Spring" die.
(It is not adhered to the cardstock yet)
It cut cleanly in my Grand Calibur with one try (the white paper is 110 pound).
Simple card on pearly Star-Dream cardstock:
The green and white cards are size A7 (5" x 7"). They are made entirely of WHITE CARDSTOCK. The white layer is covered with Sparkle N Sprinkle Mountain Mint Velvet Glitter.
The glitter changes color with any movement. This photo was taken at the same time and in the same place as the photo above:
The leaves were also die cut with white cardstock, inked, and coated with Sparkle N Sprinkle Green Iris Ultrafine Glitter.
Here is a flat card for mailing (using a different card creator frame):
There is a strip of 3/4" Tear-ific tape on the inside of these cards, burnished with more Mountain Mint glitter.
I made a larger A8 size card. In the US, flat A8 cards still use a single postage stamp, unless the card weighs more than 1 ounce. This one is dimensional, so it will cost a little more:
A close-up of the featured die cut and dimensional layers. The Cheery Lynn Fanciful Flourish is coated with Sparkle N Sprinkle Waterscape Ultrafine Glitter. The flowers were "striped" with a little Copic Marker "pink".
Close up of the Sue Wilson Gemini Series Phoenix Set:
My favorite is the white on white card. I really like the details of the featured die!
Show us "your stuff" for this fortnight's challenge at Scrapy Land! We love being inspired by your pretty cards and projects.

Gorgeous collection Donna! What a fancy die cut, I love that you made it the focus and not just the background! Love the way you can use one die and make so many different styles of cards! Amazing! hugs :)
Hallo meine liebe Freundin Donna,
ich kann gar nicht sagen wie sehr ich deine Werke bewundere. Jedes ist immer mit so viel Liebe gestaltet. Wunderschöne Stanzschablonen hast du verwendet und ich bin absolut begeistert.
Ganz herzlich möchte ich dir danken für deine lieben und tröstenden Worte. Es hat mich wirklich wieder einmal arg getroffen. Aber ich muss trotzdem wieder nach vorn schauen so schwer es auch manchmal fällt. Aber meine lieben Blogfreunde und das basteln geben mir Kraft.
Ich wünsche dir und deinen Lieben von Herzen ein wunderschönes Osterfest. Ganz herzliche Knuddelgrüße Hugs Silvi
Beautiful cards Donna, such a gorgeous die. I love the fresh green and white together, perfect for spring. The black and white is really effective as well with just the little splashes of pink. It goes without saying that the White on White is absolutely stunning.
I really love this die but I must resist, I have no room for any more stash.
I hope you are well.

That is an awesome die Donna. You have showcased it beautifully. What a gorgeous array of cards.My favorite is the white on white one. Simply elegant and beautiful.
Donna ~ I love all the cards, they are just so elegant! Love all the glitter on the green ones and those pearls are perfect!
Such a beautiful die cut. I love how you've paired it with black and light pink.
I love how you show so many variations using the same set of dies! All of these are stunning but I think I like the white on white the best too.
Beautiful cards! The white one with the dove is perfect for our challenge! Flat enough to go in an envy and just beautiful! Thank you for sharing with us at Cards in Envy!

Gorgeous gorgeous dies Love both the cards ,the bird cage is eye catching and the colors (sorry) to die for ...Lis
OK...now you are making me try to decide which colorway I like best! I can't do it!!! Each is just awesome, and I am loving that gorgeous big die. Was at SnS today buying some EP, Glitter, Flocking and other powders and am now wondering if I got some of that awesome green color. Does it EVER look like lush spring! Great work on each card here, and I like the white card too. So very elegant. TFS & Big hugs. Loving the tiny bird gif at the end of your post too. Ah, just so cute.
Glorious creations Donna, I am especially drawn to the fresh Spring green creations and all those pretty pearls, a real feast for the eyes.
Wishing you a Happy Easter.

Wow!!! These cards are so amazing with their sparkly gorgeousness and die cut overlays. I looooove those gorgeous blooms you put on them, too! Thank you so much for your kind words on my blog post. I'm totally signing up to follow over here, too!
Wow, Donna, I don't know where to begin! You are so creative and each card created with the same die is so beautifully unique and different! I really like floral simplicity on the first, the lovely border down the side on the second, your pearl border treatment on the third, and the sophisticated look of the third with the black and pink against the white. You have really inspired me to get busy!!!
PS, I forgot to say I agree on how the White on White looks, but they are all lovely!!!
WOW love the way you have shown the die in different styles...stunning
Cheers
