Avery Elle – Dotted Dies

Good morning everyone – here today with a card I made using one the amazing new dies from Avery Elle.  The Dotted Elle-ments set contains a large dotted frame that fits perfectly onto the front of a standard A2 card and here I’ve used it with some twine to give a stitched look to my card.  For the back ground I used some hearts from the Sending You stamp set as well as the little paper aeroplane and dashed “trail”.  The sentiment is also from that set.  The cute wee character is Goldie from Red and Goldie.

dotted 1There are some VERY exciting things happening behind the scenes at Avery Elle that I’m DYING to spill the beans about but my lips are sealed for now.  Let’s just say – it’s something you’re ALL going to go gaga over – that is all!!

Thanks for stopping by.

My first card uses some of the heart-shaped foam pads.  I pulled out some neon glitters and neon ink pads so the recipient might need sunglasses when they get this!!Scrapbook Ad blog hop 1

The next card is a shaker card using the Balloons die set, Happy word die and large frame from Dotted – all from Avery Elle.  I blended the same neon inks that I used for the card above but it’s not quite as “IN YOUR FACE” as the previous one, lol!!Scrapbook Ad blog hop 2

Flamingo wishes!

Hello all.  Today I have a card featuring some fabulous products from Simon Says Stamp.  They asked me if I’d like to share a couple of creations using SSS brand supplies so of course I said YEEEESSSS!!

Flamingo wishes

Now I may have mentioned this before but I have a daughter who is obsessed with flamingos – seriously , they’re everywhere in her room, on her clothes, in her bed!!  So when this SSS die designed by Kelley Purkey came out I knew I had to have it!!  Here I’ve used it to make a shaker card with some pink sprinkles that I’ve had in my stash for years.  I even nabbed one of her flamingos for a photo prop, lol!  I also used the Tilted Banners dies set a co-ordinating stamps exclusively from Simon Says Stamp.  She’s already grabbed this card for her own collection so I guess it won’t be going anywhere other than on her massive Expedit shelving unit along with all the other flamingo nik naks!!
