Cards

Hello, friends! It’s Lindsey and I’m happy to be giving you a peek of some of the new dies releasing this month.  I was super excited to see two new shaker dies–the Pumpkin Shaker and the Acorn Shaker. If you were a fan of the Stitched Pumpkin Dies last month, you are going to love the Pumpkin Shaker. It is the exact same style, just larger in scale and with the added option of cutting out the centers to make it a shaker. I decided to make it into a little shaped card.  It’s about 3″x3.5″ in size.  

New release will be available September 12th

I die cut the Pumpkin Shaker several times. Then, I blended ink in three different colors onto the shaker negatives and gave them a good spritz. After inserting them back in, I filled my shaker with the new Matte Gold Confetti Mix. (I can’t get enough of the confetti mixes! You’ll love them!)

I jazzed the pumpkin stem up a bit by using woodgrain paper. I kinda love it. :) Then, I added a sentiment using the Sentiment Strips Dies and the new Sentiment Strips: Fall Stamps, both of which are must-haves in my opinion. They are a fabulous addition to anyone’s collection! 

If you were wondering if the mug addition lineup is continuing, the answer is yes! Welcome Fall Mug Additions! This new set is full of all things warm and cozy and will be wonderful for your fall and winter crafting.  

I kept my Winter Mug simple, spraying it with grey and silver, and then adding a knitted mug cozy from the new Fall Mug Additions. I used the filler die (from the Winter Mug Dies) to add some cider and tucked in the new cinnamon sticks. They are my favorite! 

I spritzed a light peach shimmery spray onto my card base and topped it with two of the Leaf Frame Dies, placing one upward and one downward, so they would cover the entire card base. Then following the slight curve of the leaves, I added “cozy days” from the Fall Mug Additions Dies.  

To complete the sentiment, I added “Wishing You” from the Holiday Sentiments stamp set. The final touch was a little sprinkle of the new Matte Gold Confetti Mix.

Last, but certainly not least, are the new Fall Cornucopia Dies. This set comes with a large, two piece cornucopia and LOTS of fillers. I used most of them on my card and also added an apple from last year’s Fall Basket Dies.  

I have found the easiest way to create with sets like these is to die cut all the dies several times, so you have lots of pieces to work with. I did some simple ink blending and assembled all my pieces.  I recently saw some pumpkins at the store with gold stems. I loved the bit of glam that added, so I did the same on my card. Once everything was ready to go, I got to work filling the cornucopia to overflowing with all the fall goodness.  

The sentiment is another new die, the Thankful Shadow Dies, and it is lovely! And if you look closely, you’ll also see a peek of the new Deco Leaves Stencil on my card base. 

That wraps up today’s sneak peeks, but there are a few more fabulous dies releasing this month, so keep you eyes peeled and make sure to come back tomorrow to see a preview of the whole release in picture form!

Hi, friends! It’s Lauren and I am so excited to be sharing a little peek at two new stencils: Deco Leaves Stencil and Layered Fall Wreath Stencils. These new 6×6 stencils are going to really step up your Autumn themed projects so let’s jump right in and take a look!

New release will be available September 12th

My first card is using the Deco Leaves Stencil and I just love this simple but beautiful design! It reminds me of a warm sweater or scarf when it starts to get chilly outside. I used Antique Linen Distress Oxide onto kraft cardstock to create this background with a foam blending tool.

For the card, I cut it with the largest Stitched Torn Rectangles Die and layered it with a dark red cardstock onto my card base. I cut mushrooms and leaves from the Fall Mug Additions Dies and colored them with alcohol markers. I layered them with my Thankful Script Hot Foil Plate sentiment that was cut with the coordinating Thankful Shadow Die, as well as my stamped sentiment from the Sentiment Strips: Fall Stamp Set and Sentiment Strips Dies. Some final touches of liquid embellishments in a vanilla color were added to match the ink of the stenciled background!

For the Layered Fall Wreath Stencils, I wanted to go a little non-traditional in my colors. I stenciled the leaves with the A layer in different colors of Distress Oxide onto a cream colored cardstock. I used Saltwater Taffy, Speckled Egg, Tea Dye and Vintage Photo with foam blending tools. For the leaf details of the B layer, I used some brown stencil paste which gives the background some subtle texture.

When the background was dry, I trimmed it to be slightly smaller than A2 and glued it to my card base. Then I made an Acorn Shaker from shimmery brown and rose gold cardstock and filled it with Espresso Confetti.

I wanted to add in some cute images from the Fall Jar Stamp Set, so I stamped a few out on cream colored cardstock in a brown ink and colored them in with alcohol markers. I used the Fall Jar Coordinating Dies to cut them out and attached them to the top of my acorn. I added a few more Espresso Confetti pieces around my card for some extra shimmery fun.

I hope you enjoyed this sneak peek of these new stencils; you’re absolutely going to love the rest of the release. I’m so ready for sweater weather with these new products!

Hello crafty friends, Arsenia here! I’m super excited to share this sneak peek using the new Fall Jar Stamps and coordinating dies. I’m so ready for fall! I absolutely adore everything about fall and all the images from this stamp set are perfect to share some fall goodness. Let’s get started!

New release will be available September 12th

For my first card I stamped and colored the images from the Fall Jar stamps with an array of different alcohol markers from my crafty realm. The images are so cute, I especially adore the little mouse. For the jar I used the negative from die cutting to do some light ink blending, diy stencil.

For my background I used a beautiful new stencil set called Layered Woodland and it’s gorgeous. I did partial stenciling, it’s a four-piece stencil but I only used two of the stencils and did some random stenciling aka partial stenciling. I added some light ink blending to warm up the background and added some fun splatters in the top left corner and lower right corner. I wanted to add more red to go with the cute mushrooms, I decided to use the new Fall Mug Additions die set to add some red berries.

I arranged all images from the Fall Jar stamp set onto my background and decided I needed a resting place for the Jar and florals. I used the new Stitched Torn Rectangles Dies cut from vellum and it was perfect. To finish the card, I added the frame from the Fancy Cake Dies and added some of the new Espresso Confetti Mix, ta-da card was done!

For my second card I wanted to make a wreath with the adorable images from the Fall Jar Stamp set with coordinating dies, I love making wreaths. For the base of my wreath, I used the Leafy Spring Wreath Stamps and coordinating dies. I adhered my images to the wreath for some dimension and added a twine bow to the wreath.

I wanted a fun bold background and decided to use the new Layered Fall Wreath Stencil, oh this stencil is gorgeous. I used several yellows, oranges, and reds from the Distress Oxide family. I absolutely love how this turned out, to finish the background I added some splatters. My wreath blended into the background, I decided to add the large Stitched Torn Rectangles die cut out of vellum to the background.

To finish the card, I used the new Sentiment Strips: Fall stamps with the Sentiment Strips Dies that came out last release!

The new release is phenomenal! It’s chock full of lots of FALL goodness! Come back tomorrow for another sneak peek.

Happy Fall, everyone! This is Melissa and I’m here to kick off sneak peeks of the upcoming release. Today I have couple of cards made with the sweet Autumn Pumpkins stamp set and coordinating dies.  

New release will be available September 12th

I created pink pumpkins on my first card, using my favorite paper-piecing technique. The Autumn Pumpkins set is perfect for those of you who enjoy coloring in your images, or if you’re like me and love paper-piecing, they’re perfect for that too.

I adore the tiny squash in this set and stacked one on top of my darling pumpkins.  In the background, I have used the new Layered Fall Wreath Stencils. This is one of my most favorite stencils from this release…it’s beautiful.  I have also used the Stitched Torn Rectangles dies to die cut my background.

My sentiment is from the new Thankful Shadow die, and I accented my Autumn Pumpkins with the tiny sunflower and bow from the darling Fall Jar stamp set.

My next card uses more of the sweet Autumn Pumpkins, but this time I used my alcohol markers to add color. I used Distress Spray to add splatters to my pumpkins and background as well.

The Stitched Torn Rectangles dies were used once again to build my card. These are quickly becoming a favorite of mine.  The base layer was stenciled using the new Deco Leaves stencil. This adorable stencil reminds me of corn on the cob and wheat and I love it!

I sponged ink over my top Stitched Torn Rectangle layer and added a die cut sentiment from the Autumn Pumpkins stamp set and coordinating dies. I added a few falling leaves to embellish around the sentiment and accented with adhesive gems to bring in a little sparkle.

Thanks so much for joining me! Stop by tomorrow for another sneak peek of the upcoming release!
