Hi peeps. Happy Halloween. I am here today showcasing, appropriately, Halloween Wishes set. This is the first Halloween set ever from The Ton and it’s a fun one.
This card is actually come together pretty quick. I first stamped the sentiment, followed by the web, bat and ghosts. Then, I simply ink blending Iris Blooms, Soft Garden & Beach Blondie for the background. That’s it. Seriously, a super quick card.
I think the ghosts on this set are pretty adorable. I don’t like scary stuff, always prefer cute, so this set definitely fit my style. Well, since it’s a quick card, there’s not much I can write about it. Hah!! I hope you enjoy today’s card and like the card said, I send you bugs, hisses and Halloween wishes. 🙂
Hi peeps. Vera here. Today, I want to showcase the new Sunflower Fields Layering Stencil. Love this fun stencil and I love it even more that I can easily make 2 cards after I completed stenciling this set.
Before adhering the sunflower panel to the card base, I inked up the card base area that’s not covered with some pattern using an old die from The Ton and use it as stencil. Then I adhere the flower panel and finish by adding sentiment from Rose Labels set.
The other sunflower panel went to the card below. Instead of white ink this time I inked up the card base with Honeydew.
I truly am enjoying playing with all the stencils right now. Hoping to get more crafting time in, so I can share more projects with you all. For now, I hope you enjoy today’s cards. Thank you for stopping by here. May your day be a good one. Cheers.
Hi all. Vera here. Today, I am showcasing Blended Peonies Large Stencil set. Honestly, when I first saw the sneak pee, my thought was whelp, that’s a large stencil. Like way too large for cards. Until I got them in my hand and then I was like, oh my goodness, this is such a cool stencil. I can quickly make 4 cards with just this stencil set. Yep, it’s a 4 in 1 kind of stencil. Let’s get on with it shall we?
My birthday card stash getting low, so I decided to do all 4 cards with birthday theme. I went with these color combination: Soft Garden, Meadow, Bright Fern, Crystal Pewter and Smoky Quartz. The neat thing about this stencil you can easily create 4 cards with completely different color scheme simply by using post it note to cover the edges of the next quadrant or you could make it super easy and make all 4 with same color scheme, which the route I went with. Once I finished stenciling, I simply die cut all of them using the coordinating Blended Peonies Coordinating Dies. Here’s my first card.
For this one, I paired the flowers with soft blue background as I love blue and green combo. For the sentiment, I used the label sentiment from Rose Labels set. I do use this set a lot because I love label style sentiment. To make the flower pop a bit, I die cut extra 2 layers of the bouquet shape and adhere all of them together to create the extra thickness. Then simply add the sentiment and some yellow Stickles to the center of the flowers.
For my 2nd card, I with soft gray background to compliment the leaves color.
Just like the first card, I die cut two extra layer to pop the flower. I feel like this make it sturdier compare to using foam adhesive. Adhere the flowers, add sentiment, stickles and finish by adding some Emerald Green Opaque rhinestones.
I made all these 4 cards in about an hour. I think what took me the longest is deciding what colors to use. Hah! So, what do you think of this Blended Peonies set? Personally, I love the option of having 4 sets of stencil in 1. I can use just 1 of them or 2 or all of them. Whatever you feel like.
I hope you enjoy today’s inspiration. Peeps, that’s all from me today. May your week be a good one. Cheers….
Hi peeps! Happy Monday. Vera here. Can you believe it’s already the last week of August? Feel like the older I got, the faster times slipping by. Yikes…
Anyway, I am here to bring you a colorful inspiration on behalf of The Ton. Today, I am showcasing the new Sunny Folk Garden set.
To make this card, I started by stamping the butterfly outline on a piece of cardstock and then cut it out using Brother Scan-N-Cut. I used the cut out opening as my stencil. Now, on a hindsight, I should have cut it out of a piece of acetate so I can keep re-using it.
Once I am done with the coloring, I stamped the butterflies wings and heat embossed it with fine white embossing powder. Now, as you can see the color on the butterflies above looks different than on my card. That’s because after I took this picture and was working on the heat embossing part, I messed up a couple of the butterflies.
Yep, I was so irritated at myself for messing it up after I almost finished, but hey, that’s part of the process. I took a breath and told myself, just take the time to do it all over again.
So, I re-did a couple of the butterflies and by the time I finished blending the ink, they come out a bit different than my original one. I also made slight change of plan. Instead of a flat layer butterfly card, I cut out all the butterfly and adhere them to the card base with foam adhesive. And, I actually like it way better compare to if it’s been a flat one.
Finished by stamping the sentiment on strip of cardstock and again adhere to card bae with foam adhesive. Add some shimmer to the butterfly with shimmer marker.
I am pretty happy with the way this card turned out. You know, sometime you have an idea in your head and sometime it work out and sometime it doesn’t. This time, it works. Yes, I messed up along the way, but at the end it was a good messed up, because the correction ended up better than the original idea. 🙂
How about you? Do you usually continue or re-do stuff after you make a mistake or you just chuck the whole idea? I am in between. There’s time where I get so frustrated and just chuck it & completely abandon the plan. Depends on my mood & patience on that time. Hah!
Well peeps, I hope you enjoy today’s inspiration. May your week starts off wonderfully. Sending positive vibes your way! Hugs.

White heat embossed on colored cardstock.
Project by Effie. For this card, I white heat embossed the Autumn Sweater Background onto light coral cardstock and trimmed it about an eighth of an inch on each side. I set that aside and stamped the squirrel and leaf stamps (from our Oak Leaf Print set – below). For these smaller stamps, I used our Spiced Chai, Lipstick red and Found Topaz inks. Next I cut these images out and arranged them onto a circle die cut. I popped it up along with the sentiment onto my white embossed background and finalized my card with Gold Medallion Sequins.
Oak Leaf Print, 4×6 Photopolymer Set

Now onto the gallery of cards that I made to showcase our flash release. Enjoy!
For my first card, I die cut my wave layers in two different shades of blue cardstock. I made two layered waves for my project so I cut each die twice. I made sure to save one of the negative pieces of my lighter cardstock to add to my project. Once all pieces were cut, I took the second largest die from our Double Stitched Rectangles (Large) set and cut out a black stitched panel. Next I adhered the panel onto a top folding A2 base. Then I adhered my waves and negative piece. Lastly, I adhered my sentiment strip (stamped using our Basic Banners sentiment set).
For my next project, I used my Geometric Circle coverplate to die cut the delicate pattern onto white cardstock. Then I created my shiny backdrop using our new Silver Ribbed Glitter Adhesive Paper. Next I stamped my Peony Notes cluster (Ruby and Crystal Garden Collection Layering Inks) and die cut the image using the coordinating die. Next I adhered the Geometric Circle die cut onto the silver glitter panel. Then I popped up my Peony Notes cluster onto the panel with foam tape. For my sentiment, I used our XOXO die on bright pink cardstock and then popped up the sentiment onto my finished panel.
For my next card, I created my own Gold Foil cardstock using our Gold Foil Adhesive Paper. Next I die cut the panel using our Geometric Circle coverplate. Next I stamped and colored our Haute Gala Dress image (I also embossed the dress detail using gold glitter embossing powder). Next I stamped the sentiment from our Basic Banners set. I die cut the dress and banner using their coordinating dies. Next, I adhered the Geometric Circle die cut onto gray cardstock.  Lastly, I mounted my dress and banner onto the finished panel.
For my next pair of cards, I die cut my Two Piece Foliage Coverplate on mint and white cardstock. Then I interchanged the two inner pieces with the other color cardstock. I added stitching to the edges of the border pieces using the largest die in our Double Stitched Rectangles (large) set (I would recommend doing this before any die cutting for easier handling).
Next, I stamped my Fresh Cut Daisies in our Ruby and Amethyst Collection Layering Inks. The leaves were stamped using our Soft Garden and Bright Fern Dye Inks. Once stamped, I die cut my florals and leaves with their coordinating dies. Next I adhered my interchanged coverplate die cuts onto side folding bases. Then I popped up my daisies in the corners of the built in frame of the coverplate die cut. Lastly, I stamped the sentiment (Coming Up Daisies) in our Noir Dye Ink and embellished the cad using our Clear Rhinestones.
For my next card, I kept this one fairly simple. Â I die cut our Best Day Ever coverplate die onto green cardstock. Â Then I colored in the sentiment using a black zig marker. Finally, I adhered the die cut onto a side folding gray cardbase. Done!
For my last card, I die cut our Best Day Ever coverplate die onto white cardstock. Then I colored in the magnolia florals and foliage using zig markers. I created a thin pink border using the largest die from our Double Stitched Rectangles (Small) Die Set. I adhered the border onto my coverplate die cut. Then I adhered the finished die cut panel onto a side folding A2 cardbase.
That’s all for our February Flash Release! Everything including our sold out Peony Notes, Daisy Duet and Peony Bouquet sets are available for preorder now. All orders containing preorder items will begin to ship on February 12.

For my first two projects, I used our GWP (Gift with Purchase) Daisy Duet set. I cannot stress how much I love coloring this stamp. The size of the blooms are really wonderful. So for today’s projects featuring this large image, I went with a cool and warm color palette to showcase how amazing this floral stamp is.
Photo taken against our Cabin and Natural Wood Backdrop Boards
For my first card, I did some masking (created with the coordinating die) and then rose gold embossed an entire panel using the large Daisy Duet image onto watercolor paper (Canson XL 140LB). I created my own background that is ready for watercoloring. I used my Color Bursts for this card (Lemon Yellow, Marigold, Sap Green and Terre Vert).
I started off by painting a base layer of Lemon Yellow onto my daisies. Then I added a second layer of color using my Marigold CBs but I went back in and added a more concentrated amount of Marigold to the inner petals. Next, I finished my painting by watercoloring my leaves – first layer of Sap Green, then Terre Vert. Next I took the largest die from our Double Stitched Rectangles (Small) set and die cut my panel and then adhered it to a side folding A2 base using strong double sided adhesive sheets.
Next I die cut my thank you sentiment from our Bold General Greetings Word Plate Die set. Using the negative space as a guide, I popped up my sentiment onto my card using pop up squares. Next, I added a white heat embossed sentiment strip (Peony Notes) to my card. Lastly, I embellished my card using our Clear Rhinestones.
Photo taken against our Cabin and Natural Wood Backdrop Boards
For my next card, I masked and rose gold embossed my Daisy Duet the same way as my first card.
However, I didn’t emboss the entire panel. I left about a third of the panel unembossed for my sentiment. I used my Shinhan watercolors for this card. Next I painted my daisies using a combination of blues and purple (Cerulean Blue, Ultramarine Deep and Permanent Violet). For my leaves, I used a combination of Gray and Neutral Tint.
Once my florals were painted, I added shading to the areas surrounding my clusters using my Indigo paint. Once my panel was dried, I rose gold embossed the thanks sentiment (Peony Notes) and added stitching to the edges of my panel using the largest die from our Double Stitched Rectangles (large) set. Lastly, I added our Clear Rhinestones to further embellish my card.
I hope you all liked my cards! Thank you so much for joining us these last couple of weeks to celebrate this milestone with us. As we go into our fourth year, I will continue to strive to bring you all fabulous, quality designs and products.

I started off by rose gold heat embossing the tulip cluster from our Sweet Folk Hummingbird set at the top and bottom edges of my watercolor paper. For the bird, I stamped on a separate piece of watercolor paper. Then I gave my florals a base layer of color using my Color Bursts (Marigold and Lemon Yellow). I detailed my tulips with my zig markers (Geranium Red, Scarlet Red and Bright Yellow).  I also added a blue outline to my florals using some Ultramarine Blue Color bursts. For my hummingbird, I quickly colored this little guy with my zig markers (May Green, Geranium Red and Dark Brown).
Next I die cut my  watercolored panel using the largest die from our Double Stitched Rectangles (Small) set. I also die cut my hummingbird at the same time. Next, I die cut my sentiment with my “hello” word plate and then blended some Bright Fern Dye Ink to the bottom half of the word. Finally, I assembled my card by adhering my painted panel onto a side folding A2 base. Then I popped up my sentiment, sentiment strip (white heat embossed onto black cardstock – sentiment is from Sweet Folk Hummingbird) and bird. Lastly, I added our Clear Rhinestones around my sentiment.

My next card was VERY easy to make! I simply stamped our Riotous Wildflowers background stamp onto cardstock, colored it in using zig markers (no special shading), stamped the sentiment from our Seriously Amazing Sentiment set (Noir Dye Ink), added stitching to the edges of the panel and adhered it onto a base. Done!

For my last card, I used our Painted Peonies. I stamped out two of the clusters in the corners of an A2 cardstock panel (I saved this panel for the next step). I used our Cali Blue, Cobalt Breeze and Parisian Blue Dye Ink. For the leaves, I used Crystal Pewter and Smoky Quartz. Then I die cut both clusters using the coordinating die.
Next I blended the corner edges of the panel using our Caribbean Turquoise Dye Ink. Then I blended some of our Noir Dye Ink with water and splattered a bit of the ink onto my blended die cut panel. Once the panel was dry, I adhered it onto a side folding A2 base. Then I popped up my clusters in their respective negative areas on the base (this way you use the positive and negative spaces of the cardstock while stamping leaving no waste or scraps!).
For my sentiment, I started off my heat embossing a portion of a piece of black cardstock using silver glitter embossing powder. Then I die cut my hello word plate from this panel but I made sure that the embossed portion covered only half of my sentiment. Next I popped up my glittery, two toned sentiment onto the middle portion of my card. Lastly, I embellished my card using our Silver Dew Drops.
