My first card is for this week's challenge at Muse, and I'm so excited that my sweet blog friend, Michele Ferguson has inspired us with her really cute card:

My next card is for the current at SSS Flickr Challenge #34 for the theme 'All About Die Cutting', and the SSS Blog Wednesday Challenge...'Die Crazy'! I went shopping at SSS after winning the last Flickr challenge, and picked up a few dies, so I was ready to play along!
Our weather has gotten very cold with overcast skies, so I wanted to create something bright and fun with spring colors...I used a yellow card base so it would peek through the openings on the flowers, and stacked the die cut sentiment to add dimension. The enamel dots are from my DIY stash that I made with Perler Beads (see my tutorial Here).

Your cards are wonderful Barb, love how you have added the two pandas, I was just playing with the set the other day and was thinking just how much I liked it! Those die cut flowers are uber cool too, with the pop of colour showing from behind!
Love those panda's and the sentiment, so cool. The second card, love the yellow and white. Very pretty. Well done on both cards.
Wonderful cards, Barb - love that die cut flower with the yellow behind
LOve what you've done with that panel, Barb!! OH how cute are those little kissing pandas! Thanks for playing cards with me this week, I know how busy you are! LOve your flickr card, too ... and your weather is about to change again, sending much warmer temps your way!
xx Merry Christmas!

Adorable take on Michele's card, Barb! And I love those gorgeous flowers on your second card! So pretty with the CAS design and bits of yellow! So glad you played in the SSS Flickr challenge! Thank you! Hope you have a wonderful Christmas, my friend! ♥
Very nice Barb! It is nice to something other than Christmas cards. The pandas are so cute and the sunny card is a good one for sending in the middle of winter.
Love both cards Barb! Your take on Michelle's card is so cute and I love what you did with the SSS dies! Congratulations on your win! I tried the method to make enamel dots by melting perler beads and mine didn't work! I just don't know where it went wrong! Anyway, have a wonderful Christmas and a great upcoming New Year! Thanks for the inspiration in 2015, can't wait to see what you come up with in 2016! Hazel xx

You are so talented, Barb! Love your Muse card--the hearts are such a wonderful touch! Happy Holidays!
Kiss-Kiss...absolutely adorable! Pandas = happy sigh! We're in the midst of a cold-and-gloomy spell as well, so your second card, with the pretty flower and sunny colours, is so refreshing! I'm ready for spring to make its appearance...
Wishing you a most MERRY CHRISTMAS, filled with special time with family and friends, good food and, of course, abundant joy and love!

Barb, your Muse card is adorable, and such a sweet take on Michele's. Your second card is lovely. I am so excited to break out the flowers once I get back to my crafty space.
