Well, it's turned very cold here again. It wouldn't be so bad if Mother Nature didn't keep teasing us into thinking that Spring is on the way. Tomorrow we're supposed to get sleet and snow! Oh joy. NOT! So, I'm thinking warm thoughts. 
This is a card that I made using a set of clear stamps by Danelle Johnson/Art Warehouse. You can't really tell on this photo, but I accented the images with Copic Spica glitter pens. I did some scoring with my Scor-It to resemble the rays of the sun as well as to add a little something to the bottom part of the card. The sentiment is by Hero Arts.
A couple of weeks ago I made a scalloped edge background layer by cutting cardstock only partway with a Nestabilities die. I was trying to think of other ways to use this "partial nesties" technique. Here's a card that I made using a similar partial cut, but in a slightly different way.
This time I used a scalloped rectangle die and only put one corner of it through the machine between the cutting plates. I scored and then folded the cardstock back to make a window of sorts. I liked the effect of using this with double-sided cardstock. The stamped images are by Danelle Johnson/Art Warehouse and the sentiment by Hero Arts. I used a Quickutz Curlz Goosebumpz folder to emboss the strip of cardstock across the front.
