Avery Elle: Hang in There

Hi Everyone! Happy Thanksgiving!  Today I'm featuring the stamps and dies called Hang in There by Avery Elle. I decided to have the cute dog in the set flying in a hot air balloon. The balloon was created with three die cut circles and the adorable basket from the set. I drew the hot air balloon strings and added the stamped sentiment to finish the card. I hope you have a great day! Thanks for stopping by!

Avery Elle: Love Puffin

Tod ay I created a card featuring  Love Puffin  stamps and d ies . I started by creating the fun blended background with Distress Paints. I love how these paints blend and dry quickly. They are even perfect to stamp on. Fun, right? Next, I stamped, die cut and colored the puffins. The scenery was created usin g die cut pieces from  Rocky Shores .  Finally, the entire panel was cut using  Finished Frames .  Thanks for stopping by!

Avery Elle Blog Hop!

Hi Everyone! Today is an exciting day! I LOVE the new Avery Elle stamps and dies and am super excited to share them with you! Today, I get to share my first card of this release. I started this card with some of the adorable images from Hedgehugs. Heather Campbell, who designed this set, knocked it out of the park. Her illustration style is amazing! I built the scene with Rocky Shores Dies (it makes a great mossy hill, don't you think?) and Tree Die. The banner was created from Hanging Banners . I just trimmed it down a little bit to fit the tree. This hop is full of inspiration. Check out the others in the hop below and all the release details.

Right at Home: Christmas Foliage

Hi Crafters! Today I'm sharing a great set from Right at Home's Christmas collection. Christmas Foliage is a great set with so many iconic holiday images and perfect sentiments. I started this card by creating a background with several stamps from the set. What I love about this set is that you can keep it simple with the images (like I did) or you can colored them to your hearts content. Next, I embossed the sentiment in white on black card stock and popped it behind a die cut window. This was such a fun card to create! I can't wait to see what you create with this set!

Avery Elle: Kitsch Christmas & Retro Ornaments

Hi Everyone! Today I'm featuring Kitsch Christmas  and Retro Ornaments  from Avery Elle. To start my kitsch card I took some time (okay, a lot of time) on Pinterest looking at all of the amazing inspiration. I found a few wreaths that I LOVED and was inspired to make a colorful, sparkly wreath from washi tape! After I created my wreath, I stamped and colored a few images from the set and added them to my wreath. I finished the card with a sentiment. I love how it turned out! For my second card I had the best time coloring these amazing ornaments from Retro Oraments. I used Copics to colored them in and then added lots of Wink of Stella so they shine and sparkle.  Thanks for stopping by!
