Large all occasion cards featuring paper pieced backgrounds with fun aphabet paper and cute images from Melonheadz

A couple more cards for my sister from her stash.  The first one started with a large brown card to which I added strips of cardstock.  The alphabet strips were cut from a 12" x 12".  I embossed the red and pink ones and the green one was textured cardstock.  I simply glued them to the front of the card and trimmed them to the edges on both sides.  The cute little dog with a kite is one from Melonheadz which I really like.  I watercoloured it, layered it with two red and one green strip and then added to my card front using 3D foam tape.  

My second one started with a green card to which I adhered a coordinating background (SU).  I created the flagged strip using a length of the alphabet paper layered onto a strip of green cardstock.  I flagged the end and adhered it to my card front.  The daisy image was watercoloured and then I punched the corners with little slits in which I tied yellow crochet thread tying the ends off on the upper left corner.  

Love these happy images!!
