Sending Seeds of Joy

Today I'm playing along at Just Us Girls Challenge Blog where it's Anything Goes with a Stencil!  I'm also linking up to Time Out Challenge where this time the cue words are Mother Nature.   I think half the fun of planting a garden is the miracle of watching a seed turn into a plant and then watching the flowers turn into fruits and veggies! 

Fun fact about me is that I'm a gardener so I really loved seeing this set from Waffle Flower Crafts! FIrst you cut out the Postage Collage Seeds Die, and then ink it with the coordinating Setncil.

I topped mine with a white Postage Collage Blocks die. I ink this give the stenciled bits a cleaner look because they're framed. It forgives any little line up errors you might have made.

To make it a little fussier I set it over a striped "air mail" background made with the Postage Collage Coloring Stencil and then cut with an A2 Piercing Layers die for that dotted edge that matches some of the cut outs on the base.

I thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a fantastic day! Hugs!

Sending Bubbly Hugs

Today I'm playing at Time Out Challenge where it's all about WATER! I thought my underwater scene would be perfect!

I started by cutting my dies and laying them out on a piece of plastic the size of my card base. The Seafloor Silhouette underwater ruins are from Waffle Flower Crafts!

I had fun adding lots of embellishments.. rocks, starfish, shells and coral. How do you like the little eyes and water bubbles for the fish?

Arranging the design on clear plastic is helpful because I can slip different backgrounds under the design. I loved how this alcohol ink background looked!

I hope your're keeping cool, staying inside away from the wildfire smoke and that you can find some time to play!

Pink & Main June Release & Giveaway!

It's a great day for a visit because the new Pink and Main June Release is officially available! We're celebrating with an Instagram hop with a sweet giveaway!

This release celebrates SUMMER and you'll love the underwater images we have for you! This stamp set is called Mermaid Friends and she really does have ALOT of friends. I fit as many as I could on my card but I couldn't manage to fit in the dolphin or the jellyfish. The set also includes some cute sentiments!

Do you love that ombre blue wave running through the card? That is the new Abstract Waves die. I used up some scraps and cut it three times and then fit the pieces together like a puzzle.

I inked one mermaid as a blonde, another as a brunette, but thought this one with the auburn hair looked best against the blue background. The last thing to do was to add some sparkly blue gems!

And now the part you've been waiting for... the Giveaway!

Waffle Flower June Release Sneak Peek Day 3

It's day 3 on the countdown to the new Waffle Flower release! All the new product will hit the store TOMORROW! We'll be celebrating with lots of Instagram giveaways so stay tuned!

Today our focus is the new Seed Packet. There is a Postage Collage Seed Packet design and yes! This cute die set! The Seed Packet provides the basic cut out, along with the die cuts for the trims (the parts of the packet that I did in color).

If you look close you'll see more of the detail.. piercing around the center "window" or focal point, striped edge along the bottom and a rustic texture along the top piece.

With the Seed Packet Additions Die set you'll have fruits and veggies for the focal point in the center including strawberries, carrot, pansy and more!

I layered two seed packets on a Dashed Diamond Texture background and added a few Subsentiment strips for a message of love and happiness.

I hope you'll stop by tomorrow when I can give you all the details of the giveaways!

And if you want to go shopping I hope you'll click my affiliate link here. You'll even get a 10% discount on your first purchase using my link if you do!
