Hi Friends! It’s Christina and I’m here to share another sneak peek at the incredible June 5th summertime release. Today I’m showcasing the Stitched Coral die set, one of my favorite things from this release. I thought these tropical-colored die cuts paired perfectly with the Watercolor Oval stencil stencil to create a dazzling under-the-sea card design. Below you’ll find even more sneak peek inspiration from the team, but first I’ll share all the details for my inspiration project!

I started by die cutting the elements I wanted to use from the Stitched Coral die set and the new Seashell Border die set from white cardstock. Using tropical ink colors, I ink blended the die cuts using blending brushes and then added texture with a darker ink color and a sea sponge. By the way, sea sponges are a great tool to have in your arsenal; they are inexpensive and can be used with almost any medium to add texture and interest to your craft projects! Finally, to give the coral and the shell die cuts a little shimmer, I spritzed them with coordinating Mica Stains.

To create an under-the-sea backdrop for the die cuts, I started by stenciling the Watercolor Oval on a white cardstock panel with teal ink. Then, using the new Wave Edges Stencil, I stenciled a wave pattern inside the oval with a darker teal shade. And to give the background a little more interest, I splattered it with plain water and with the same teal ink colors I used for stenciling. 

With the background and the die cuts ready to go, I got to work assembling and finishing up my card design. First I trimmed the background panel to 4 x 5 ¼ and attached it to a card base with foam tape. Then I arranged my coral and shell die cuts inside the watercolor oval and attached them with either glue or foam squares, depending on their placement and if they overlapped. Next I added the Hello Script greeting and a gold heat embossed sentiment from the new Sentiment Strips: Summer set. I die cut the sentiment with a Sentiment Strip die before attaching it under the greeting and then added a few Matte Gold Confetti embellishments.

We hope you enjoyed this sneak peek. We’ll be back tomorrow with a full picture reveal of the release!

June Intro: Seashell Border + Seashell Shaker + Stitched Seashells

Welcome to day 3 of sneak peeks for our June 5th release. Today we’ll be sharing a look at the new Seashell Border, Seashell Shaker, and Stitched Seashells die sets.

Hello Crafty Friends! Arsenia here — and oh boy, do I have something fintastic to share with you today! I’ve teamed up with some of my favorite crafty pals to bring you a sun-soaked sneak peek featuring the brand-new Stitched Seashells Dies, Seashell Shaker Dies, and the beautiful Seashell Border Die. These dies are everything you need for creating beachy, summery goodness — from ocean vibes to tropical flair!

I’m sharing two cards and a sweet little gift tag that are bursting with seaside goodness, so grab your shades and let’s dive right in!

Ready to make some waves? For my first card, I used the fabulous new Seashell Shaker Die — but with a twist! I created a faux shaker by skipping the acetate and popping up the outer shell with foam tape. Then, I tucked in some super cute bits from the new Underwater Mix Clay — total treasure vibes!

My color palette? Inspired straight from the mix itself — it’s minimal but totally packs a punch! I inked up two shells from the new Stitched Seashells Dies and added some whimsy with the new Stitched Coral Dies. These sets play so well together, like a perfect beach day!

To anchor the design, I added the new Seashell Border Die along the bottom — color coordinated, of course — and for the background, I used the gorgeous new Layered Seashells Stencil with my three fave inks. A little splatter here, a few pearls there, and a ribbon to finish it all off. I stamped a sentiment from the new Seashells Stamp Set, popped it on with the coordinating dies, and boom — instant ocean bliss!

For card number two, I couldn’t wait to play more with the new Stitched Seashells and Stitched Coral Dies. I inked everything up in fresh, beachy colors and paired it with the new Summer Words Stencil for the background — one of my absolute favorites for adding bold, fun texture or soft, subtle vibes depending on your inking style.

To keep things from getting too busy, I used the Seashell Border Die again — this time in crisp white — to break up the background and give my sentiment a cozy resting spot. I layered in the new Good Vibes Shadow Die and a sentiment from the new Sentiment Strips: Summer set, then sprinkled in white splatters, sparkle, pearls, and a bow. And just like that — card two is done and shining brighter than a beach sunrise!

Not one to waste those pretty leftovers, I whipped up a quick and adorable gift tag using the Wonky Stitched Rectangles. I added some leftover shells and coral, then topped it off with the For You Shadow Dies and a couple of blue hearts from the new Beach Town Clay Mix. Perfect for a gift bag, party straw, or a gift topper!

These new goodies are so much fun to play with and beyond perfect for all your summer-themed crafting — think cards, party décor, cupcake toppers, gift tags, and more. This release is pure sunshine and sea breeze — and I’m in love with every single piece!

Here’s a look from the team showcasing the products we’re featuring today.

Stay tuned for more inspiration and happy crafting, friends!

June Intro: Sandcastle Shaker + Sand Bucket Shaker + Summer Script

Welcome to day two of sneak peeks for our June 5th release! Today we’re featuring the Sandcastle shaker, Sand Bucket Shaker, and Summer Script.

New release will be available June 5th

Watch the video above  I  Watch the video in HD on YouTube


Hi crafty friends! Christina here, and it’s time for some more sneak peeks at the fabulous summer-themed June release. Today I’m super excited to give you the first look at the new Sandcastle Shaker and the new Summer Script die that I combined to create a fun beach day shaker card. Below you’ll find more sneak peek inspiration from the other designers, but first I’ll give you all the details about my card design!

I started by creating the layered background for my beach scene using the new Shoreline Borders to die cut colored cardstock and patterned paper. I adhered the sand layer first, on a light blue cardstock panel, covering about ⅔ of the panel. Before adding the water layers on the bottom third of the panel, I spattered them with a little Distress Ink and water.

I wanted to add some interest to the sky, so I got creative and used the dirt mound from the Big Dump Truck die set for the clouds and the new Summer Icons coordinating dies to create a sun, which I die cut from patterned paper. I glued these in place and trimmed away anything that overhung the background panel.

Next I constructed the Sandcastle Shaker using more patterned paper and filling it with Chocolate Shaker Beads – the colors are perfect for this sandcastle! To keep things simple, I constructed the shaker separate from the card design using thin foam strips and then attached it to my scene with glue. I adorned the castle with red flags and, from the Patriotic Stars Clay Confetti, a few white stars. 

To finish things up, I added a greeting and a sentiment by combining the new Summer Script die with a couple of stamps from the new Sentiment Strips Stamp Set: Summer. I chose white cardstock for the Summer Script to coordinate with the clouds and the stars. And for the stamps, I heat embossed them on the same blue cardstock I used for the water before die cutting them with Sentiment Strip Dies and attaching them with foam squares. Finally, I tucked a little starfish from the new Seashell Border die set into the water to balance out my design. 

Here are some more samples from the team…

And that’s it for my sneak peek at the new beachy-keen items. Thanks for stopping by! Join us again tomorrow for a look at more of the new June 5th release.

June Intro: New Stamps + Shoreline Borders

Welcome to the first day of sneak peeks for our June 5th release! This release includes five stamp sets (four with coordinating dies), five stencils, ten standalone dies, and four embellishments.

New release will be available June 5th

Watch the video above  I  Watch the video in HD on YouTube


Hey there, crafty crew — it’s Arsenia here, and I’ve got a splash of sneak peeks to share using some seriously adorable new goodies: the new Seashells stamp set, Seashell Wreath stamp set, and Shoreline Border Dies. I created two ocean-inspired cards, and guess what? No alcohol markers in sight! Yep, I’m showing you how to make a big, colorful impact without picking up a single coloring pen.

I kept things bold and bright using just four dye ink colors — proof that less can definitely be more. Let’s dive right into the fun!

For this beauty, I created a dreamy faux watercolor effect — and it was so fun! I used watercolor paper, spritzed my dye-inked stamp images with water, then let the transformation happen. A few brush strokes here, a second stamp there, and boom — a soft, flowy look perfect for seashells. I used both new Seashells stamp set and Seashell Wreath stamp set! Once everything was die cut, it was time to build the background.

Enter: the gorgeous new Layered Coral Stencil Set. I inked it up using the same bold color combo, then layered it up with Coastal cardstock for some extra pop. A touch of vellum, using the Wonky Rectangles Dies, helped tone it down so my seashells could shine. I used a sentiment from Friend Greeting stamp set with coordinating dies and for a sub sentiment I used the new Sentiment Strips: Summer Stamp Set with the Sentiment Strip Dies!  Add in some white gel pen highlights, a sprinkle of glittery “bubbles” (hello, Birthday Cake Pops and Party Flags Dies), and a little whimsical bow for good measure — ta-da! Ocean beauty!

Ready for another set?
This time, I heat embossed the seashells from the Seashells Stamp Set, on colorful cardstock and gave them a little faux watercolor treatment with matching dye inks and a blending pen — subtle, soft depth that looks so dreamy! I die cut everything with the coordinating dies, added some gel pen sparkle, and used the Shoreline Borders Dies to create a wave out of patterned paper. (There are four shoreline styles in the set — so many possibilities!)

For the background, I went with the new Layered Seashell stencils and framed everything with my beloved Wonky Stitched Rectangles. Add in a sweet sentiment from the new Seashells stamp set and more glittery bubbles, plus a shimmery silver bow, and this card was ready to ride the tide.

Both of these cards are all about bold color, playful texture, and just enough sparkle to make a splash. I hope these ideas inspire you to get creative with your stash — even without traditional coloring!

Get ready — you are going to fall in love with this release. Don’t forget to check out all the other inspiring projects from my crafty friends below!

I hope you’re as excited as I am about these new stamps as we are. The possibilities are endless! Stop by tomorrow as we reveal more new products.

May Intro: Floral Wreath Builder + Scallops Pierced Plate + Stitched Hummingbirds

Welcome to the last day of sneak peeks for our May 7th release! Today we’ll be showcasing the Floral Wreath Builder, Scallops Pierced Plate and Stitched Hummingbirds die sets.

New Release will be available May 7th

Watch the video above  I  Watch the video in HD on YouTube


Hi friends, Melissa here and today I’m sharing a couple of cards made with the darling, new Floral Wreath Builder, Scallops Pierced Plate, and Stitched Hummingbird dies

I began my first card using the beautiful Scallops Pierced Plate. This die is so delicate, detailed, and truly irresistible. The pierced detailing adds so much charm and sweet personality to any card.

The Floral Wreath Builder was used to create my focal point…it is a stunner!  I chose to arrange my flowers across the bottom of my wreath adding a bow and more wispy leaves at the top.  I die cut a few of the leaves from patterned paper and scattered them around my wreath.

My sentiment is from the new Friend Greetings stamp set and dies and is the perfect size to nestle inside the opening of my wreath.  You’ll love arranging your florals in creative ways around your own wreath!

My next card uses the new Stitched Hummingbird dies. These tiny birds bring in so much color and charm…I adore them!  I ink blended both of my birds then added water droplets to create a soft, ethereal, watercolor look and feel.

They are layering over a Notched Squares die that I stenciled to create a cloudy, sunshiny sky. Once again, my sentiment is from the Friend Greetings stamp and dies sets.  I love this sentiment, don’t you?

In the background, I have used the new Layered Blooming Vines stencils and then ran it through with my beautiful Scallops Pierced Plate…double the beauty!

Here are some more samples from the team featuring three of the new dies sets, along with some of the other new products.

We hope you enjoyed this sneak peek. We’ll be back tomorrow with a full picture reveal of the release!

Hey there, crafty friends!  It’s Arsenia here, and I am steeping with excitement to spill the tea on a sneak peek that’s as sweet as sugar cubes in your favorite cuppa!

I’ve been brewing up something special with the delightfully whimsical Tea Time Stamp Set—and yes, I absolutely brought the coordinating dies to the party. This charming set is overflowing with creative potential for all kinds of occasions, but today, I’m serving up a cheerful birthday card! Because let’s be real… can you ever have too many birthday cards on hand? (Didn’t think so.)

So grab your favorite beverage and settle in—because this crafty moment is steeped in fun (you know I had to).

First, I stamped out the sweet images from the Tea Time Stamp set and colored them in with my trusty Olo Markers, using soft blues, sunny yellows, and bright red tones. Then came the magical moment—cutting them out with the Tea Time coordinating dies. And let me tell you, these images? Absolutely adorable.

For the background, I played with the fabulous new Layered Blooming Vines Stencil—and oh my goodness, I’m obsessed! I used dye inks in shades that matched my colored images for a cohesive, whimsical look that totally ties the scene together.

To anchor the design, I reached for my new go-to: the Notched Squares Die Set. It created the perfect little frame for my tea party to unfold.

To finish it all off, I tucked in a few leafy bits from the new Floral Wreath Builder Die Set (another must-have—you’ll see why soon!), stamped and die-cut the perfect sentiment using the Tea Time set with coordinating dies, and sprinkled in a few hearts from the Build A Heart Die Set for that extra dash of sweetness.

And voilà—one charming, cheerful birthday card all done and dusted! I’m totally in love with how it turned out, and I can’t wait to show you even more tea-rific inspiration soon.

Stay tuned, crafty friends—there’s so much more fun on the way!

I hope you’re as excited as I am about these new stamps as we are. The possibilities are endless!

May Intro: Notched Squares + Teacup Shaker + Vase Shaker

Welcome to day two of sneak peeks for our May 7th release! Today we’ll be showing a look at the Vase Shaker, Teacup Shaker, and Notched Squares die sets.

New release will be available May 7th

Watch the video above  I  Watch the video in HD on YouTube


Hello everyone! This is Melissa and I’m here to share a couple of cards made with the beautiful, new Vase Shaker, Teacup Shaker, and Notched Squares dies.  If you love creating with dies as much as I do, these products were made for you. Let’s get started!

My first card uses the delightful Vase Shaker…oh how I love it!  I die cut it from aqua cardstock, using an aqua striped patterned paper as the base layer.  I filled it full of sequins, clay confetti, and seed beads.  I used a thin vellum instead of acetate to create my shaker, allowing the filler to shine through very subtly.

I filled my vase with darling blooms, cut using the new Floral Wreath Builder and Spring Floral dies. The bow from the Floral Wreath Builder was the perfect touch at the top of my vase.

The irresistible new Layered Daffodils stencils were used to create my background, stenciling in colors to coordinate with the yellow daffodil in my floral arrangement.  I then used one of the larger Notched Squares dies to layer under my vase to create a nice landing space for my focal point. My sentiment is from the new Simple Thanks stamps and dies and is the perfect size to grace the center of my shaker.

My next card uses the new and oh, so adorable Teacup Shaker.  I can’t get over how cute this is and the color choices, patterns, and personality are endless!  I cut my teacup from patterned paper in coordinating patterns and colors.

I chose to use flowers from the Floral Wreath Builder die collection to fill my cup, ink blending them in yellows and oranges.  I added my sentiment on the die cut tea bag that comes with the set and stamped it using the new Hummingbird Floral set. The coordinating die is so graceful and sweet and looks perfect across the front of my teacup.

Once again I’ve used the Notched Squares dies to create my base layers, using a fresh gingham as the bottom layer followed by a white center layer. These dies are definitely must-haves in your crafting stash!

This sweet May release is absolutely a breath of fresh air!  Creating with them is truly inspiring and full of possibilities.  Thanks for visiting!

Here are some more samples from the team featuring three of the new dies sets, along with some of the other new products.

I hope you’re as excited as I am about these gorgeous new products!

Hey crafty friends! Arsenia here, and I’ve got something super exciting to share—a first look at the brand new, dimensional Shadow Box Die Set! This little gem is all about BIG impact. It’s a 3D dream come true, and the best part? It’s ridiculously easy to put together.

Whether you’re going for cute, classy, or totally out-of-the-box (pun intended), the creative possibilities are endless. Seriously, once you start playing with it, your crafty brain will be buzzing with ideas!

I had an absolute blast creating this dreamy little shadow box card, and I’m so excited to share how it came together! Let’s dive in:

First things first—I grabbed my trusty Shadow Box Die Set and cut out the base and tier pieces from white cardstock. Using the cloud die from the same set, I created a quick stencil and added some soft, whimsical clouds to the back panel of the shadow box. It instantly gave the whole scene a floaty, beautiful vibe!

Next up: the grassy hills. I used the tiers I’d already cut and transformed them with the grass die (yep, also in the Shadow Box Die Set). A little green dye ink brought those hills to life—so fresh and springy!

Time to assemble—and let me tell you, this shadow box comes together like a dream. Super easy, super satisfying.

Once it was built, I had so much fun decorating both the inside and outside of the box. I went wild with florals from the brand new Spring Floral Die Set—it’s quickly become a favorite of mine!  I also added some delicate details from the Butterfly Border Die Set for an extra touch of whimsy.

To finish it off, I framed the box with the scalloped edge (included in the Shadow Box Die Set) and layered on even more flowers and some sweet hearts from the Build A Heart Die Set. For the sentiment, I used the adorable Friend Greetings stamp set with coordinating dies—seriously, the mix of fonts is just so playful and fun!

Final touch? A few white paint splatters for a little sparkle!  And voilà—my springtime shadow box card is complete! Best part? It fits perfectly in an A2 envelope, making it super easy to mail to someone special.

Ready to see some samples by the team? You’re in for a treat!

We hope you enjoyed the first sneak peek of the May 7th release. We’ll be back tomorrow with another look at the new collection!

March Intro: Tulip Shaker + Butterfly Border + Carrot Shaker

Welcome to the day 3 of sneak peeks for our March 19th release! We are thrilled to introduce this collection of Easter-themed products, many of which are perfect for your spring projects as well. Today we’ll be highlighting the Tulip Shaker, Butterfly Border and Carrot Shaker die sets, but you’ll also get glimpses of some other new products as well!

New release will be available March 19th

Hello everyone! This is Melissa and I’m here to share a couple of cards made with the beautiful, new Pretty Pink Posh stencils. If you love stencils as much as I do, you’ll absolutely want to add these to your crafting stash. I’ve also incorporated the darling Carrot Shaker and Tulip Shaker dies. Let’s get started!

My first card uses the Watercolor Oval Stencil topped by the Line Bursts Stencils to create my background.  I love layering stencils, and this is a fun way to do just that.  I wanted a soft, daylight sky with some sun rays shining in the distance and these two stencils created just the look I was going for.

I then added in my Tulip Shaker dies, creating a layered flower instead of a shaker flower. I love the versatility of these delightful dies!  I added patterned paper to my leaves and tulip topper to bring in some pattern and texture.

A couple of pretty flowers on each side of the tulip were cut using the Easter Bucket Addition dies and then the Grass Border across the bottom…such a fun die for Spring and any time of the year. Lastly, I added a sentiment at the top using the Easter Greetings stamps. All that was left was to add some adhesive pearls and Stickles glitter to add some shimmer and shine.

My next card uses the new and oh, so adorable Springtime Borders Stencils to create my background. I used colored pencils to add detail to the carrots, tulips, and leaves. I offset my carrots and carrot tops a bit to create the look of a bundle of carrots…another fun way to use these stencils.

Next, I added my die cut Carrot Shaker adding florals at the top and bottom using the Spring Foliage dies in soft purples and greens. I used my Line Bursts Stencils once again across the front of my carrot to resemble lines you may see across the front of any carrot.

I used the sweet, Upright Greetings Easter stamps to create my sentiment and tucked them under the petals of my flowers.  This is such a fun way to add a sentiment, don’t you think?  I added a tiny die cut Picket Fence border across the bottom to finish,  

Ready to see the darling projects from some of the team? These colors are making us long for the flowers to start blooming and the sun to shine (it’s been so dreary here in Washington).

We hope you enjoyed this sneak peek. We’ll be back tomorrow with a full picture reveal of the release!

Hey crafty friends! Arsenia here, back with a sneak peek of some egg-cellent new products that are going to make your crafty heart skip a beat! Get ready to meet the whimsical, fun, and oh-so-practical Build an Egg Dies and Fringe Egg Dies! These dies are perfect for crafting everything from cards and tags to cake toppers, cupcake toppers, party straws, and SO much more! I’ve got two cards to share today—so grab a cuppa, sit back, and let’s dive in!

For my first card, I’m playing with the Build An Egg Dies—and let me tell you, it’s a blast! I started with a clean, white card base and paired it with the dreamy new Watercolor Oval Stencil for my card panel. Then, I die-cut three of the four eggs from the Build An Egg Die set using white cardstock. Time for some ink blending fun! I blended in gorgeous shades of blue and green, giving the eggs a fresh, pastel look.

Next, I added loads of little decorative pieces from the Build An Egg die set, all in matching colors. And here’s the trick—don’t overthink it! Just have fun and go wild with your color combos! I adhered the eggs to the card panel, added a cute bows (from the new Easter Bucket Additions die set in yellow and vellum), and finished off with the sentiment from the new Easter Greetings stamp set and the coordinating dies for the perfect touch!

Of course, no card is complete without a little sparkle, so I splattered some shimmer all over the panel—voila! The card is done and it’s a pastel masterpiece.

Now onto my second card—featuring the brand new Fringe Egg Dies! I started by creating a soft background using one of my favorite stencils from the last release, the Layered Garlands stencils. For the card panel, I used the new Watercolor Oval Stencil to create a perfect base for my fringed egg.

I die-cut all four pieces from the Fringe Egg Die set in white cardstock, then blended on some more fun blue-green ink. The fringe effect is so fun and textural—love it! I assembled the egg with a little glue, and decided to give it a pop of floral goodness using the Easter Holder Additions Dies. These little flowers in white glitter paper are just the right touch of sparkle.

To finish things off, I topped the egg with a sweet paper bow, created with the Present Shaker Dies (because why not?). For the sentiment, I turned to an oldie but goodie—the Sentiment Strips: Easter stamp set. Using the Sentiment Strips die set, I cut out the sentiment, flagged the end for a fun detail, and added it all to the card panel.

Of course, no card would be complete without a little extra sparkle—so I splattered some shimmer all over, and ta-da! The card is ready to shine!

Ready to see some samples by the team? You’re in for a treat!

I hope you’re as excited as I am about these egg-citing new products! The Build an Egg, Fringe Egg and Easter Bucket Additions dies are sure to be some of your new favorites in your crafty stash. Honestly, the possibilities are endless!
