Waffle Flower Crafts April Release Reveal & Blog Hop!

Welcome to the Waffle Flower April Release Blog Hop! We're fluttering by with lots of beautiful butterflies this release to brighten your day! We've also got the latest "flower of the month" - the Sweet Pea, lots of stitched foundation shapes and pretty frames 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 Rebecca Keppel'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 card features a Pop Up Butterfly die cut background that has a coordinating stencil two step set so you can color all those little butterflies! I topped the background with a Pinking Circle and a pretty gold foil and stencil colored Gilded Butterfly.

This one is some pretty stacked layers from bottom to top.. Nesting Dotted Rectangles topped with three sizes of the Pinking Rectangle frames. The butterflies are cut using the Window Trio Two Die.

For this card I cut the Butterfly Window Trio Two Die - its a set of butterflies and hearts in the same configuration. If you look close you can see the stitched detail around the outer edge of the butterflies.

There's a new Butterfly Shaker shape and plastic insert this month too! I cut it from a simple watercolor panel and filled mine with gold sequins. After I die cut the butterfly I cut the panel again with the new Tiny Crosses Texture die.

This is the new Sugar Pea set - you can stamp or gold foil the flower out line and then color or ink it in with the coordinating stencil set.

This last card features the Window Trio Two die - the hearts are the second shape in the 2-die set. The stampset I used to fill in the hearts is called For The Ladies.

Spring Daffodils

It's been a long winter and I'm so excited to start seeing daffodils in the yard! Their bright sunny yellow just make me HAPPY!

My card has lots of yummy layers beginning with the card base topped with a dark yellow Fancy Frame, a slightly smaller light yellow Stitched Rectangle, topped with a Radiating Rectangle cut from white card stock.

The Sketched Daffodil is available as a stamp or a gold hot foil image. You can color it with markers or your favorite media, or use the coordinating stencil set. The matching die will cut either the gold or stamped image. That means lots of possibilities.

I used the stamp set with Archival Ink and then added Distress Ink with the coordinating stencil. I love how clean this one looks.

Even though there are lots of layers on this card it's still very flat and perfect for mailing.

I hope this little taste of sunshine will make the recipient smile big!  I'm linking up to Creative Crafting Uncles where they're looking for Easter/Spring projects!
