Bee Mine – Avery Elle

Hi there – I’m over on the Avery Elle blog today featuring the cutest little stamp set ever, Bee Mine.  This also has a co-ordinating die set with a sweet little dotted “trail” for the bees  – how gorgeous is that?  For the diagonal strip behind the focal image I used two of the border dies from Dotted Borders and also used Finished Frames on the front mat of the card.  I coloured the images with Copics and finshed it all off with a bit of dazzle with some red Stickles and Wink of Stella.

Let’s Celebrate

Hello – I’m over on the Avery Elle blog today sharing a little project I’ve created using some awesome Avery Elle dies and stamps.  I’ve been busy whipping a ton of wine bottle tags using the Cheers die (more to share on that later in the week) and combined it here with the new Bunting stamp set and Elle’s Alpha’s stamps.  As you can see, the dainty size of this sweet little alphabet set is a perfect fit for the flags in the bunting set!

I die cut the tag from gold cardstock and the created a smaller panel in white for the front of the tag.  I stamped some stars from the Bunting stamp set in Cherry and New Moon inks and a few more using gold Delicata ink.  I die cut some flags from Sea Glass card and then stamped 2015 using the Elle’s Alpha stamp set.  The sentiment (also from the Bunting stamp set) was first stamped in gold then overstamped and slightly offset in black.

 

Enjoy your day xxx

Avery Elle Winter Release Blog Hop!!

AEBlogHopBadge

Hello – here I am joining in with my third blog hop in 3 days!!  I LOVE it!!  You should have hopped here from Chunyan’s blog  but if not head back to the start at the Avery Elle Blog

Today is very exciting – it sees the launch of the brand new Winter release from Avery Elle – woo hoo!  This release is amazing and has so many fresh and funky sets to suit all tastes.  Today I’m showcasing the new “You’re Invited” stamp set.  This is an invaluable stamp set to have in your collection, the font is fantastic!

DEC Blog HopI’ve made a Christmas party invitation ( I only see in “Christmas” at this time of year!!) but this set is universal!  If you need to run up a few party invites then this is the set you NEED.  I Cut the aperture for my shaker card using a brand new die which compliments the You’re Invited Stamp Set.  I love this die because it embosses stitching on both the negative AND the positive side of the cut – awesome!!  I used the gorgeous woodgrain card for my panel and some Cherry card stock for the backing onto which I stamped and embossed the sentiment.  The snowflakes are cut using the smallest of the Noel dies – LOVE these dies!

Thanks for dropping by – your next stop on the hop is my lovely friend Heather Campbell.
