C.C. Designs January Release Blog Hop

Today is RELEASE DAY for the new JANUARY Stamps at C.C. Designs. As you have seen from our Preview Days, these new stamps revolve around LOVE and Valentine’s Day. There are 3 new Little Pixie stamps, and 3 new Roberto’s Rascals stamps. We also have a new sentiment set called XOXO Sentiments. Another big announcement…..we are going back to the pre-cut rubber for our stamps. We’ll keep the sentiments clear so they are easy to line up on your cards.

CC Balloon Heart.jpg
I coloured up the Balloon Heart Rubber Stamp with my copic markers and then fussy cut her out. I popped her up on a tag cut from the Layering Tag Dies, I created my own background on the tag by repeat stamping one of the sentments from the XOXO Sentiment set!
I then cut a cloud out and stamped another sentiment on that and layered it underneath her feet!

Every release we will have a New Release Blog Hop to showcase our awesome Design Team. Check out their amazing creations!

Just Because

LDRS Just Because 2.jpg

Hey everyone! I am back with another post for LDRS Creative!

I have always loved making cards with only sentiments, I have been doing fewer and fewer of them. But LDRS had some fantastic sentiment  sets that work so perfect for these types of cards! I used the Just Because set for this card!

LDRS Just Because 1.jpg

I embossed the sentiment on vellum and die cut it out with the Basic Stitched Flags Dies, lots of paper layers, Wild Orchid Crafts flowers, enamel dots, and cheese cloth finished off this card!

Mini Remix Brewtiful

Hey everyone! I am back and Happy New Year! 2016 went out with me going on a 10 day holiday to Calgary, which was fantastic, and much needed to recharge my batteries! It sure worked the ideas are flowing like crazy.

I coloured up these cuties from the Mini-Remix Brewtiful stamp set, it also comes with matching dies.
