Card Challenges - PoppyStamps MemoryBox

I have created 2 cards to enter into the Poppy Stamps and Memory Box card challenge.  This is my first attempt at entering a card challenge.  Wish me luck!

Poppy challenge Just Bling It!

UPDATE:
I was too late to enter this card.  I thought the cut off time was PST but it was EST:( it was 9:26 pm PST, 36 minutes too late).  Also I linked the main page address not the adress of the card I posted. Live and learn for next time.
I did get the random draw prize.!!! Can't wait to for my gift card.  So many dies not enough $$$.  I wonder if i can will call my order:)  Not bad for my first successful upload (somewhat successful???)  I recommend using a laptop or computer for this.  Not a smart phone.  I tried to upload through instagram in previous challenges and it would never accept it.  So I created a blog.

For this challenge I made the  Magical Faerie card.    I used the new Poppy Chinese Lanterns with the Patient Faerie.  The patient faerie is sitting on the Mushrooms and Toadstools amongst the Tall Grassy Stems.  Her magic is making the bamboo forest bling.

To create the background the bamboo I used a stencil with crushed olive on the green paper.  I  used the Memory Box Stars Shimmer stencil and mixed the embossing paste with Nuvo glitter gold pen. 

For the bling on the purple card stock I used the Nuvo purple glitter pen. I also used the gold glitter pen on the Pointed Rectangle Frame. On top of green card stock.

Memory Box Neutral Challenge

UPDATE:
I did not win this contest either.  At least my link was accurate:)  thanks for all the nice comments from both teams.  I have a technic that will create amazing backgrounds for the water challenge.  I hope to post the video of it soon.  Editing on a smart phone is slow.

It was really hard to come up with a neutral card theme.  I always want to add some color.  Unless I am remaking an Olga card.  She makes the best neutral card scenes every. 

I used the new Brilliant Leaf Frame die with various shades of brown. I used the Little Dragonflies with the 2 lightest shades used in the leafs.  I used taupe with the Wild Prairie Stems on the bottom to balance it out. 

Fun with Hero Arts Layering Stamps

Below is a collection of  cards I made with Hero Arts layering stamps.  These are so much fun and easy cards to make. 

Layering birds and blossom stamps.  I made it into a shaker and used flower soft.  The edges are trimmed with Elizabeth Craft stickers.

Gold fish layering stamps.  I made a shaker with only 1 gold fish inside with the seaweed layered on the inside. The water is stamped with Local King waves 1 static back ground.

My favorite stamp set is the Koi.  I used distress ink and wink of stella for the water...

With this Koi card I stamped the koi with VersaMark on the solid layer then added perfect pearls.  I used a solid bright color paper. Next I stamped the second stamp in just VersaMark.  It takes off some of the perfect pearls.  Finally I stamped a matching ink to the paper for the last layer.  The water is Kuretake watercolor with wink of stella on top for a bit of shine. 

This card is a direct replica from one of the Hero Arts designer.  It was so beautiful I had to recreate it. It is so fun to make as the colors come out.  There is a YouTube video on the Hero Arts channel.
