FCD Presents DIE-Normous FUN!!!

Are you ready for your blog hopping fun to continue...or start?!
Today for this special FCD blog hop, we are going to have some "DIE-NORMOUS" fun!! What does that mean you ask? It means that Pamela of FireCracker Designs has some fabulous already specialty made die-cuts that are specifically made to go with certain stamp sets!! :) You have the privilege today to see SEVERAL ideas made with these die-cuts from the FCD design team!! So be sure to check out each and every design team's blog and if you haven't started from the beginning yet, go back to Pamela's blog to start from the beginning and follow the blogs until you reach the end back to Pamela's blog again for a nice little treat to DIE for!! :)

If you'd like, there is even a video you can watch about using her specialty made die-cuts from Pamela herself! CLICK HERE to view it!

Here is the fun little creation I made using the Feelin' Quappy? stamp set along with the specialty made die-cuts to go along with them!!! What's great about these die-cuts is that they are already cut out for you! So you can use them to stamp your image without any of the cutting involved at all! All I did for my images (two ducks, band-aids & asprin) are stamp, color in and attach to my creation! That's what's so fun about making a stair step card like this one because all the images stick out and I didn't have to do all that cutting.
For the water, I had a stencil and I covered the water with some Shimmerz paint as well as the asprins. Wouldn't this be a great card for someone not feeling well?! They can display this next to them on a table to make them smile as they recover! :) What's also great about this type of card is that it is accordian style and it will fold nicely into a regular A-2 sized envelope!

**HOLD ON....there is still some more fun ideas to go check out in this blog hop!! Be sure to go see Ursula next at her BRAND NEW blog!! She would love for you to leave a comment! Keep going until you reach the end of the blog hop!! You will certainly want to see ALL of the wonderful stops along the way! You will lastly end back up at Pamela's blog!
