Faux Quilting

I knew I wanted the Stitched Quilt Thin Cut Shapes the moment I saw them in the new book. Evidently, so did everyone else as they sold out and may not be available until the end of March! However, my ladies will get the chance to still play with these dies and make a few cute cards that are quilted with love!

Here is a close-up of the dies and a couple of cards I made. You can see that there are a few shapes that you get on one magnetic sheet. The possiblities are vast, not only for cardmaking, but for your scrapbook pages too! I will be back soon to show a layout I created using the die cuts.

Please check back on my website late March for the availability of these dies. You will want these in your stash!

Feels Like Home Cardmaking

Hello! Have you seen the Feels Like Home collection in the newest Idea Book? It is really a gorgeous, versatile paper collection with soft colors and a black and white base. Here is a collection of cards that I made with this paper, some of the cut-apart pieces, compliments and the super cool watercolor flowers.

You will see that I also chose to use several sentiments from the January Stamp of the Month which unfortunately is no longer available. You can find many other sentiments and quotes throughout the idea book though!

These water color dies can be colored with the watercolor palette and brush or you can simply use the water brushes with any of our ink pad colors by simply swiping the lid and applying color to the die cut.

Recently I mailed off a big box of cards for donation to the troops serving our country. The organization was in need of Thank You cards and Thinking of You cards. Here are just a few I did for them.

H2H Sorbet Sketch

Now that the July Parade of Pages is over, it's time to play along again with my favorite challenges. It's a sketch challenge on Heart 2 Heart blog this week. The pattern is fairly clean and straight forward allowing room for lots of creativity and embellishing. I've pulled the lovely Sorbet cardstock and matching B&T paper for this card. It has nuetral colors of Colonial White and Desert Sand with just a pop of Sky blue. {all of these colors will remain in the new Idea Book!} Take a look~

Here is the sketch~
