Now let’s introduce some sequins!

 

Now let’s check out the stamps for today!

First up is the latest installment in our Garden Cling Stamp series!  I wanted to change things up just a little with this one so I added some gorgeous butterflies to our Poppy Garden design.

Next up is our new border stamp featuring beautiful outline morning glories.  Like our other border stamps, all you need to do is stamp, color and add a sentiment for a perfect card. There is no need for additional masking with this new stamp.

Next up is our layered Party Fans!  These Party Fans can add an instant festive touch to you papercrafts! This set will come with a color printed layering guide.

Our next set is our layered Macarons! This design has been percolating in my brain for some time now and am so excited to introduce it! Now you can stamp this famous french cookie in three layers with with separate stamps for the filling.  The set also comes with a coordinating outline version that you can color!  The larger macaron measures approximately 1.25 x .875 inches at its widest points.  The smaller macaron measures approximately 1 x .875 inches at its widest points.

Last but not least for today is our tiered Sweet Macarons set!  This set comes with two separate stamps that allow you to stamp the macarons in chic alternating hues for a perfect presentation of these french cookies. The Tiered Macarons measure approximately 2.25 x 3.75 inches at its widest points.

We hope you like the five sets for today! Now please enjoy the gallery of inspiration by our team!

Our first card is Vera’s beautiful multi-hued Poppy Garden card! Her added shading to the image gives her project such amazing depth.

Tae Eun’s card is a  lovely watercolored masked vision of our  Poppy Garden stamp.

The next set of cards is mine created with our Poppy Garden. For the first set, I rose gold embossed the panels and then watercolored with Color Bursts.  For the card on the right, I used our Congratulations word die and Mixed Dew Drops. For the card on the left, I used the sentiment stamp from our Macarons set and sequins from our Valentine Frosting Mix.

For my next set of cards, I embossed the Poppy Garden stamp on watercolor paper and then watercolored using Zig Markers.  I used our Hugs die for the sentiment. 

Emily’s Morning Glory Border card is a perfect and colorful floral vision against that neutral kraft background.

Tae Eun’s coloring of our Morning Glory Border stamp is blended to perfection!

For my  next card, I gold glitter heat embossed the Morning Glory Border on watercolor paper.  Then I watercolored the morning glories with blue and purple zig markers to get a two toned effect.  I stamped the sentiment from our Thoughtful Poppies in our Noir Dye ink.  For my embellishments, I used our 7mm Seaglass and  5mm Clear Dew Drops.

For my next card, I simply gold heat embossed our Morning Glory border stamp and sentiment on navy cardstock.  Then I splattered some gold perfect pearls (mixed with water) to add interest.

Eunji’s next card features a chic half wall of festive Party Fans!

Jenny created a fun and nontraditional round card with an explosion of colorful Party Fans!

Tae Eun also created a fun wall of Party Fans using a playful color palette. 

LauraJane’s next card features a fun and pretty stack of layered Macarons with a fun shaker backdrop using our new Cotton Candy Puff Couture Mix. 

Mayline’s created a fun and psychedelic pattern using all the layers from our Macarons set.  

Tae Eun’s next card features a lovely stack of Macarons and a Lone Poppy.

Vera’s lineup of layered macarons make the most delicious background for her adorable pup!

For my next card, I paired our Macarons set with our Tea Party set. I stamped the smaller macaron from our new layered set using our Ballet Slippers, Rose Quartz and Soft Garnet Dye Inks.  For the tea cup, gold heat embossed the outline image and saucer. Then I used our Soft Garnet Dye ink to stamp the pattern and handle of the teacup.  Next I clear heat embossed our Freestyle Stripes on black cardstock and then die cut a circle using our Double Stitched Circle dies.  I used my window as a guide to blend some Found Topaz Dye Ink on a kraft card base.  Before I adhered the striped panel onto the base, I added glossy fine gold glitter strips on the two edges of my base. Next I heat embossed the sentiment over the blended area in the window.  Then I adhered the striped panel onto the base.  Finally I arranged my teacup, saucer and macaron and added some sequins from our Cotton Candy Puff to embellish my card.    

Jenny’s lineup of rainbow Macarons is a delicious watercolored vision. 

Mayline created a fun watercolored border of Macarons for her next card.

Eunji created a fun pattern of layered Macarons and foliage for her next card.

Emily’s birthday card is a lovely combination of our tiered Sweet Macarons and fun Party Fans. 

Jenny’s Sweet Macarons are watercolored and bright against a fun confetti filled background.

For my next card, I rose gold heat embossed the tiered macarons three times on my card panel.  I also embossed the sentiment at the same time. Then I used the stamps in the set to stamp my macarons an alternating pink (Rose Quartz) and yellow (Vanilla Frosted Cupcake).  Next I colored in the flowers with zig markers. Then I added stitching to the edge of my panel using our Double Stitched Rectangles.  Lastly, I used a mix of our Glass Slippers sequins to embellish my card.

Last but not least is Tae Eun’s soft and Sweet Macaron card which is offset by a combination of chic stripes and soft ink blending.

That’s all the inspiration for today! We hope you enjoyed the new designs and cards for Day 3 of our 2017 Anniversary Release!
