Candy Cane Christmas

Have you seen the newest collection from Pretty Little Studio? It's called Candy Cane and it's just gorgeous! I'm a multi color light gal myself and I can't resist the rainbow candy colors in this collection!

Melissa pulled out all the stops on this collection! It includes prints on paper, clear acrylic and vellum. There are loads of die cuts - think frames, tags, images and words. My favorites would have to be the die cut strings of garland and fun hand drawn florals and foliage.

 

I used a clear sticker sentiment on my card today. I simple stuck it on a piece of white cardstock and then die cut it with a sentiment strip flag. You could easily use a punch in another shape. This collection even has clear sticker faux stitches for embellishing.

A die cut tag is the focal point on this card. Adding a faux stitched heart along the top and bottom creates a focal point for the sentiment. The string of garland draws your eye from the top to the bottom so you can soak up all that eye candy!

t's never a bad time to start working on your holiday cards, and when this paper is so pretty it feels magical making!

Waffle Flower February Release and Giveaway!

Hi friends! Thanks for stopping by! I hope you've been enjoying the last few days of sneak peeks from the Waffle Flower February release! Good news! The release is officially available in the store today! Read to the bottom to learn about the giveaway!

My card today features the new Easter Silhouettes stamp set. This is the latest addition to the postage collage series, and the images are designed to fit perfectly inside the Postage Collage Frames, Postage Collage Stamps, and Postage Collage Blocks.

I started with the background for this card. I wanted something that would make the silhouettes stand out and decided a rainbow of color would be perfect. I used rolls of sticky tape and Distress Ink to ink 1/4" stripes.

Next I cut the panel with a stitched A2 rectangle from Lacy Layers, cut a Postage Collage Block die and placed the panel in my Misti. I placed the stamps in the windows and inked with Versafine Onyx Black. The Misti allowed me to repeat stamp to get a clean dark impression with lots of detail.

And now the part you've been waiting for the giveaways!

Waffle Flower February Release Sneak Peeks - Day 3

It's day two of sneak peeks of the latest Waffle Flower Release. This one is called Spring Time because this release is full of egg hunt icons, sweet critters and fresh Easter Vibes.

These designs make it easy to build bright happy cards with simple layers and fun details! My card today features the new Basketful of Bunny die n stencil set. My favorite cards to make are scene cards and this one was fun to make!

I started with that light green grassy background panel called Grass Texture Die. I topped that with greenery from the Sweet Grass die set and then added the basket and sweet little bunny.

I cut the bunny from light brown cardstock and then added it's spots with the coordinating stencil set. The tulips are three layer for more dimension. I cut their stems from different shades of green and added a little yellow bow.

I hope you'll stop by tomorrow when we'll be celebrating the new release being available in the store. We'll have more new release sneak peeks and offering lots of giveaways! (February 5).
