I have 2 projects today using these new sets:
_____________________________________
Let's get started!
I am fairly smitten over this first new die set....Bontanicuts: Strawberries. These dies look SO realistic and are full of detail. I added the Square Dance Die in the background after using the Square Dance Stencils to add in some color....Vineyard Berry, the same color I used on yesterday's cookie box...bc I just love that pink and thought it would be fun to have pink strawberries just to change things up!
I added the Frosted Frames around the outside of the card and the placed the strawberries at the top with foam dots for dimension. Next, I added in the Happy Die cut from the new All Kinds of Happy Die Set. Seriously LOVE this new set of happy dies! Its adorable!! Last, I stamped the "birthday" from the All Kinds of Happy Stamp set on a banner from Sentiment Suite Basic Die Set.
One last quick and easy project using the new Curio: Confections Dies. Love these little dies as they can be chocolates or cookies or any fun little treat you can think of. I had to use the plate again....I just love those Crimped Circle dies. I added 3 cookies after decorating them up with the new Strawberry Bits, Heart Bits and Candy Crumble Bits. To make it super quick and easy, I die cut all those cookie pieces out of white cardstock and used Copics to add in the color.
I used the inside of the Frosted Frames to create the little doily for my card front. I stamped the most adorable sentiment from Love and Cookies on the bottom in Altenew's Pink Diamond Ink.
Remember everything you have seen in the last couple of days will be available on Friday, January 21st at 10 EST over at The Greetery.
Stop by these blogs and check out the rest of the design team and their amazing creations. Don't forget to come and hang out with me on instagram at 11am!
