Welcome to the Waffle Flower June Release Blog Hop! We're so excited about this interactive release and know that you will be too! We've also got the latest "flower of the month" - the Sketched Rose, and some hugs too! I’m happy to be hopping with the folks from Waffle Flower to show you all the fun new stuff awaiting you this release! Be sure to check out each stop in today’s blog hop for fun, inspiration, and chances to win some of these new release goodies! If you're hopping along you should have reached me from
Dana Kirby's blog. If you 'd like to start at the beginning and get all the details, you'll find them here at the
Waffle Flower Blog.
The Sketched Flower series is really pretty and has lots of possibilities. You can stamp or gold foil the image - the coordinating die will cut BOTH! Then you can color the image with your favorite media or use the coordinating stencil to ink it with your favorite inks - or maybe add some glitter or embossing paste details? It's up to you!Here is a sample of six different cards I've made with each month's release. They'e really big bold and beautiful blooms. The NEW Pop Up Heart die can be inked wih the coordinating Duo Tone Heart Stencil - I think this one looks like Valentine conversation hearts. The Waffle Flower mini blending brushes make it easy to color small areas of a stencil without overlapping into other colors. When you're done inking you can bend the heart cut outs so they stand up! I put gold foil behind mine so it peeks aroun the edges. Inside I added some hugs and kisses with the new Pop Up XO's Die. To color theletters I masked them with sticky note and brushed on Distress Ink. These Happy Gnomes are from an older set. I used them to create a scene card so I could make a sample using the new Inside Pop Up Hinges die. This set of dies make it easy to add images or words to the INSIDE of a card and, and they pop up when you open it! These are the new Stacking Boxes. Each of the little presents comes with a die cut lid and it's very own bow. A coordinating stencil makes them easy to add patterns to. I cut mine from colored cardstock and then added coordinating ink in a darker shade. There is a pop up set that coordinates with these little presents too so when youopen the card, it reveals another stack of boxes! This is the Retro Hugs set. It comes with the corner hugs and word sentiments. There's also a stamp set with lots of hugs sentiments to coordinate with the Oversized Hugs word die. I stamped them in lots of bright colors to make a background. Inside is a fun Pop Up Hugs sentiments. I cut the letters from colored cardstock and LOVE the little hearts on each letter. Finally some Bear Hugs for you. The arms of the bears wrap around each other and then swing open to reveal the inside. The Tiny Diamonds background is also new in this release!
