Waffle Flower October Release -Holiday Cheese

Hi and thanks for stopping by! A new Waffle Flower release hits the store on October 7. Until then we're sharing peeks of the new release to whet your appetite! 
This is the new Holiday Cheese stamp set with matching dies. The set includes a big stack of holiday cheese, a cute little mouse and a cuppa your favorite (hot cocoa please) with a candy cane stir stick!
There's lots of great little details in this set like the little bees with fur collars and Santa hats! The little tag has a floral design and check out the sugar plums! I added glitter to them to make them sweeter!
The background is a distress ink panel in green and red topped with the Christmas Tree Panel die. I love the color peeking through the die cut holes and around the edges.
I hope you'll stop by tomorrow when I'll share more peeks at the new release!

Graphic 45 Fairie Wings Collection

Hi Friends! Today and I’m sharing four cards made with the Graphic 45 Fairie Wings Collection. All my life I’ve been drawn to flowers and the magic a garden can bring. What a treat it would be to enter the magical world of fairies illustrated in this gorgeous collection!
I was inspired by the G45 Card Club 2020 Vol 8 Kit Fairie Wings. While my cards don’t have pocket tags incorporated in their designs I added some other extras to make these cards special.
Whenever I create, I start by looking at all my supplies. This helps set the mood and gets my creative mind going. I cut 8” papers in half (4x8” Panels) and arrange them by color. This allows me to see the print on the reverse side of the paper and start mixing and matching.
I sprinkle baby powder on my work surface and then powder the backs of all the stickers on the sticker sheet. This means I can move them around without them sticking together.
I arrange the die cut pieces, Chipboard, AND STICKERS into different categories – frames, sentiments, tags, circles, flowers, etc. It’s important to get a good look at all your supplies before you start making.
Finally I arrange the pieces on a clear piece of plastic the same size as my card base. I can arrange the embellishments before committing and adhering them in place. Also I can pick up the entire arrangement and layer it over different papers to decide which ones I like best before adhering them in place.
The special “extra’s” I added to my cards are die cut borders, butterflies and flourishes cut from gold foil paper. Gold half pearls add some bling and give an expensive look to my cards.
For extra color I used the Solids and Patterns Pad to matt the pattern paper. You can also use the solid paper to make your own mailing envelopes.
The Graphic 45 Fairie Wings Collection is a sweet escape to a magical place just waiting to be discovered!

Waffle Flower October Release - Pumpkin House

A new Waffle Flower release is available on October 7! Until then we're sharing sneak peeks of the new release! Today it's a fall celebration with the new Pumpkin House stamp and die set. 
I love the pumpkin turned house for the little mice and how they're decorating it. This could be a scene from a wonderful story book!
All of the images are colored with Copic Markers and layered over a Distress Oxide inked panel.

So many wonderful details that every time you look you will see something new... smoke coming from the pumpkin stem chimney.. a garland of fall leaves.. the little mouse on the ladder hanging decorations.. little mushrooms!! And I didn't use all the pieces in the set!!! 
I hope you'll stop b tomorrow when I'll be sharing more peeks at the new release! You're going to love what you see!
