Hi there, if you’re hip-hopping along on the Avery Elle Blog Hop then you should have arrived here from the awesome Chunyan’s blog.  If you’re just popping in but want to join in with the hop then go back to the start HERE! Right – down to business – today we’re sharing designs using some of the new products available in the AMAZING Summer 2014 release from Avery Elle.  My little heart skipped a beat when I saw all the fabulous designs we were being given to work with.  What’s on your wishlist?  Everything I bet!!

Many thanks

Today I’m featuring the gorgeous Many Thanks stamp set:

Don’t you LOVE all those different fonts and sentiments?!  I also absolutely adore the little diamond image too – I’m going to get a TON of use out that!  I’ve been big and brave and cut the diamond apart from the sentiment to give me even more options!!   I used the masking technique to make my diamond border and stamped them using Memento London Fog ink on a white panel.  I cut around the border and then filled in the facets of the diamond using a quickie glue pen and then added the Prisma glitter – happy sigh!!  I stamped the greeting in the bottom corner and then mounted the panel on the card base.  I was going to stop there but felt it was just a little TOO CAS so I took the little trio of stars from the Party Animal set and stamped them in a trail across the top half of the card – adding a few tiny gems for extra sparkle!! Right – you better get on your way to the next stop on the hippity hop!  HEATHER CAMPBELL has something FABULOUS in store for you over on her blog – ENJOY!!

Here’s all the details just as a reminder!!
