Together We Can Do Anything

After a long holiday weekend here in the US you might be having a little trouble getting going today! I'm sending you some positive vibes with the Pretty Little Studio Tales and Dreams Collection. The bright colors and whimsical florals are the perfect pick me up!

I'm having a hard time letting go of summer - the nights are getting colder here and I spy leaves on the lawn! So I'll hang on to all the flowers I can for as long as I can!

I love the positive messages you'll find throughout the collection too! The Stories & Tales Sticker Sheet has lots of rainbow colored images that fit inside labels and tabs perfectly... I used mine as a bold standout against the lime green background. I love the the rich fuchsia color matches the little dots on the printed paper perfectly.

I backed a frame with a journaling card and embellished it with lots of pretty florals and sparkly sequins. The vellum washi along the bottom along with a few sparkly sequins are the perfect finishing touch.

Enjoy your day and remember that you're really never along and that together we can do anything! Hugs!

Waffle Flower September Release Blog Hop!

Welcome to the Waffle Flower September Release Blog Hop! 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 Dilay Nacar'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.

This month there's lots of new to share so let's get started!!!

These are the new Layered Abstract Flowers on a gold foil background called Elongated Hex. I used the coordinating stencil to add color to the Hex centers and some glitz gel makes them look like gems!

The Eucalyptus Panel Frame makes a great focal point for a sentiment. I inked a colorful background panel, and some gold sequins for a pretty shaker!

Now for some holiday inspiration! The new HOT FOIL Oversized Merry Christmas is so pretty layered over a gold foil background. I added stenciled hex centers with a coordinating stencil and some Christmas Sub Sentiments.

How about some HOT FOIL CONFETTI for the new year? I topped the foil with Distress Oxide and YEAR 2023 die cuts.

The Brush Lettered Happy New Year Die is so pretty! I made two cards.. both have distress ink backgrounds in rainbow colors, but one has a layer of glitz glitter gel over the top for some extra sparkle and shine.

This is the HOT FOIL SWAG Background die. I used the coordinating stencil to add Blueprint sketch distress ink between the swags, and colored the swag elements in rainbow colors with Copic Markers. The YEAR 2023 numbers are cut from gold glitter and white cardstock.

Spellbinders September Card Kit

Have you tried one of the Spellbinders club kits yet? A subscription for $38.50 a month provides a fabulous kit filled with LOTS of supplies to work with including a stamp and die set that you'll still have long after the other kit ingredients have been used up. Here's a peek at the September 2022 Card Making Club Kit.

The kit includes EVERYTHING and I mean EVERYTHING. You get a pattern paper pad, die cut images, stickers, sequins, a stamp set, a die set, solid cardstock and even card bases, envelopes, double sided tape and foam dots.

This kit is eye candy for the crafter. It' includes chipboard embroidery hoops and paper die cuts of other crafty materials and tools including scissors, yarn, knitting and crochet hooks, pearl tip pins and more.

You'll also find lots of cute critters and fun whimsical florals. I really like the colors - a mix of pastels and brights in more fun patterns.

I know these cards will be a hit with my crafty friends and family members who enjoy hobbies that are both creative and useful, and most importantly make us know we're loved.

Maybe the images remind you of specific people too? The sewing reminds me of my Mom who had a singer sewing machine set inside a big wood table! I used to love looking through the patterns and looking at the elegant ladies on the covers.

One of my favorite parts about the kit is that it includes a die set. This time it's an embroidery hoop and lots of little florals and foliage. There's even a needle and thread die! The cuts look great cut from the foil and used as accents on your designs.

The sentiment stamped on the pattern paper is from the stamp set that's also included in the kit.

Long after all your pretty papers and embellishments are gone you'll still be able to play because the kit also includes a stamp and a die set. The die this time includes an embroidery hoop, florals and even a needle and thread! 

Thanks for having a peek! I hope you like the cards and will give the Spellbinders Card Making Club Kit Subscription a try sometime. If you don't like a surprise you can order the kit after it's revealed on the first of every month. Have a GREAT DAY!
