Sneak Peek: January Die Cuts

Well hello friend!  It’s a great day because there’s more new to share from the upcoming Pretty Pink Posh January 10th release! Today I’m playing with the new Pretty Petunias stamp set and Hello Friend Script die.  

I started by stamping the Pretty Petunias in Memento Ink and coloring them with Copic Markers.  The coordinating die set makes cutting them out a breeze!

I experiment with different arrangements using a piece of clear plastic the size of a card base.  I can arrange the flowers without committing and adhering them to the card base.  Because the sheet is clear I can also place my floral arrangement over different colored backgrounds seeing what the completed project will look like.

This card has a simple distress background of Milled Lavender.  I splashed the inked background with water, and then again with watered down Seedless Preserves.  Lastly I gave it a splash of white ink.

If you look close you’ll see some of the flowers and leaves are adhered to the card base while others are adhered with adhesive foam tape to add dimension.  I topped the flowers with the Hello Friend Script die cut from gold foil, and gold glitter paper adhered together.

Do you love the Pretty Pink Posh Storybook dies? If you said yes, then you’re going to love the new Storybook 6 die!

Storybook dies are a fun and easy way to set the scene for your stamped images.  You can insert figures into the die cut windows to tell a story, or use the die cut lines to define spaces like I did .

 I stamped images from Birthday Friends with Memento Ink and colored them with Copic Markers. The coordinating die cuts make these easy to cut and create with. I left each of the die cut boxes white so they didn’t have to compete with the bright colors of the stamped images.

The Birthday Friends stamp set has several different characters complete with lots of accessories!!! Like what? Well… A birthday cake, cupcake, presents and balloons so there’s lots of ways to arrange these!

We hope you’ve enjoyed the sneak peeks these last few days. Be sure to visit the blog tomorrow as we reveal the free stamp set that will be included with qualifying orders this month, while supplies last. It’s a fun set that we know you’re going to love!
