Avery Elle … Camping Critters and Stay Cool – Summer release

Hey there! Here today with some inspiration using some of the brand new products from the amazing Summer release.

My first card features the fabulous new Stay Cool stamp set along with my all time favourite die – the Waves background die. Not only does it create the most amazing die-cut, but it makes the BEST DIY stencil too! A wee tip when using this die as a stencil is to use a temporary adhesive spray as the “strands” are less likely to move around when you’re blending over it.

I blended some funky Summer colours over my stencil to create the backdrop for that seriously cool bear! I then stamped, coloured and die cut the bear and sentiment bubble and popped him on the card using an action wobble gizmo.

I finished off by stamping some stars in black and added some glossy accents to his shades!

The next card I’m sharing with you today features the new Camping Critters stamp set.  You can create adorable scenes using this cute set – that wee mouse is just so sweet!

I blended my night sky and added some splatters of white acrylic paint to add a starry effect.

Next I used the Custom Panels die set to create masks so I could add some hills.

With my background done  I stamped, coloured and die cut my elements and popped them onto the card to create a cute little camping scene.

Supplies:

Stay Cool Clear Stamps

Avery Elle Summer 2020 Release Blog Hop

Well, hello there! I know I’ve been MIA from my blog for months – it’s been a very weird time for everyone. I hope you’ve all stayed safe and managed to keep yourselves healthy and happy. I’ve immersed myself in my garden, decorating, upcycling, baking, etc. My crafty mojo went missing along the road too but I’m BACK with renewed enthusiasm and vigour! How could I not be with such an AMAZING new release to work with?!!

I have two new floral designs in this release –Tropical Bouquet and Poppies. I love floral stamps and the never ending colour options they allow. Today I’m featuring the Tropical Bouquet set and have two cards to share:

Avery Elle Tropical Bouquet Clear Stamps

I blended some Lemongrass Pigment ink onto my card base and then I used a make up sponge technique to add colour to the centres of the flowers and to the edges of the leaves. After die cutting my elements I assembled them into a cluster and stamped the sentiment.

I have another card to share today this time pairing the Tropical Bouquet set with a cool stamp from the Peek-a-Boo Coaster set. To me, the track from the Coaster set looks a bit like a trellis so I stamped it in green along the left edge of my card base. I then added the flowers and leaves as though they are climbing up the trellis and finished off with a sentiment.

Supplies used:

Tropical Bouquet Clear Stamps

Tropical Bouquet Elle-ments

Peek-a-Boo Coaster Clear Stamps

Lemongrass Pigment Ink

I hope these cards have added some sunshine and happiness to your day wherever you are? Your next stop on the blog hop is with my buddy Heather Campbell – have fun!!!

Avery Elle … Speech Bubbles

Hello Avery Elle friends.  Caryn here with a cute card which pairs up a few of the new Spring 2020 release products for a fun birthday card.  I started with a white card base and cut a smaller panel and adhered a strip of paper from the Spring Collection Paper pad down the centre.  I then die cut a small panel out of woodgrain cardstock onto which the elements of my card will go using the Double Pierced Rectangle die collection.  

I then stamped one of the cute dogs from the Hot Dog stamp set and coloured him with Copics and die cut the Speech Bubble and stamped Make a Wish onto it. 

I finished off by die-cutting a number 8 from the Party Numbers die set and adhered it onto my panel.

Supplies:

Speech Bubbles Clear Stamps

Speech Bubbles Elle-ments
