Here are 2 projects using today's new products! Everything is linked here and below in case you would like to take a closer look!
For my first card, I had so much fun creating a little sampler of quilt blocks using the Quilt Block Builder Stamp Set. I stamped several different designs in my four main colors, mixing and matching the patterns to give each block its own personality. I added in a soft neutral here and there to keep everything light and bright. After trimming each block into a square, I popped them up with foam tape on a white card base, leaving an open space in the center for the “merry CHRISTMAS” from Simple Holiday Sentiments Stamp Set. I love how this one looks like a collection of tiny handmade Christmas quilts!
For my second card, I used the Capsule Quilt Shop Embossing Folder to create that gorgeous dimensional quilt design. I used the same deep blue-green, eucalyptus, sorbet, and brick red color palette, along with plenty of white to really make those colors pop. The embossed texture adds so much detail to the individual quilt pieces and gives the entire design that wonderful fabric-like look.
Once the quilt design was finished, I die cut it and popped it up on a clean white panel. I layered that onto a eucalyptus card base, which tied in perfectly with the green in the quilt. For the sentiment, I used the Simple Everyday Sentiments Stamp Set, stamping “a note to say HELLO” in the same deep blue-green. I placed it right across the center of the quilt design so it would stand out without covering up too much of that pretty pattern.
I love how differently these two cards turned out even though they share the same quilt theme and color palette. The first has a fun sampler feel, while the second really lets one larger quilt pattern take center stage. And I think this color combination might be one of my new favorites!

A little info about commenting here on my blog....
A quick note about comments! My comments are moderated because, unfortunately, I get a TON of spam—the kind telling me about cholesterol medication and all sorts of other weird bot things. π So, if you leave a comment and don’t see it right away, don’t worry! I’ll see it and get it posted for you.
The other issue seems to be whether or not you need a Google account to comment. I have my settings set to “Anyone,” so technically you should be able to leave a comment using any type of login…but Blogger is a pain.
If you’re having trouble leaving a comment, or you’re not sure whether your name is showing up with your comment, please do me one little favor:
Add your name and email address to the end of your comment.
That way, if your comment is chosen as a winner, we’ll know exactly who you are and how to reach you!
I’m sorry for the extra hassle. I’ve Googled, changed settings, switched things around, and tried all the things. I have no idea why it doesn’t work the way it should.
But, again…
Blogger is a pain. π
