Sneak Peek: May Die Cuts

Jeanne here today and I can’t tell you how excited I am to be sharing in the sneak peeks of the Pretty Pink Posh May Release! You know I love dies and I bet you do too! I’ve got some new ones to show you today!!

The new Get Well Soon Script Die makes a big impression!  For this card I inked up a background of clouds and then die cut the panel with the sentiment. What I love about this die (beyond the beautiful handwritten font) is that the three words are together on one die (they’re not meant to be cut apart) so you do an inlay technique they’re perfectly positioned with one run through your die cut machine. These three aren’t going to fall apart after you use them a few times like others I’ve had.

I chose the Playful Puppies for this get well card because no one misses me more when I’m down than my dog. She’s always ready to play or go for a walk, and if I’m under the weather there are two of us that aren’t happy!

I love making scenes with dies! The Scallop Borders 1 make a wonderful grassy yard, and the Picket Fence make it more like home!

I paired the Hugs Shaker die with the new Happy Mail stamp set.  I filled it with my own mix of sequins from the store including Lemon Drop, Lemon Meringue, Sunshine Glow. If you look close, there’s another new surprise….Metallic Gold Jewels. They’re gorgeous! They look like diamonds dipped in gold!

Again I started this card with a distress inked sky. This time I cut a Stitched Borders 1 grassy hill for the Happy Mail mailbox.  I stamped a sentiment on the green cardstock and attached it to the cloudy panel.

The Summer Flower sequins are the prefect embellishment for adding flowers to scenes. The size of the flowers is in proportion with the stamped images. It’s going to be a nice day!

I put yellow card stock behind the Hugs Shaker die so it looks like a sun in the blue sky! Everybody loves a little happy mail!

I hope you enjoyed today’s cards and look at some of the new dies. Join us tomorrow as we reveal the whole May 5th release!
