I found this adorable cat image with stars on his glasses from the Meowy Christmas Stamp Set. I decided to create a fun little alley scene by using a brick embossing folder for the background and the fun YNS Trash Can Die Set. My second adorable kitty is from the Cool Cats Stamp Set, and I used a sentiment from that set as well. I stamped my sentiment and images with Black Olive Ink and then cut the sentiment out with the oval panel from the Cool Tag 5 Die Set. Finally, I added a couple of stars that I cut out using the Photo Booth Panel Die Set. So fun!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Kerri 3:56 PM 0 Comments

Hello! I have a fun little card to share with you today using more of the new release products from this month:) I just LOVE all the adorable new stamp sets and can't stop making things with them! Today I chose this super cute image from the new set Love and Hugs. I stamped the image with Black Olive Ink and cut it out with the coordinating Love and Hugs Die Set.

I once again used the Floating Heart Panel Die to cut a piece of cardstock and then used that as a stencil to sponge some hearts in the background. I used the super fun new Heart Flower Edge Die to cut a piece of red cs and then a piece of green cs to create my hill and flowers. I simply cut all of the "flowers" off of the green piece and then layered the green over the red. To finish it off, I added some new The Perfect Blend Gumdrops.

That's it for me! Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!

Today I am taking over the YNS Blog with my project so make sure you head over to the Your Next Stamp Blog and comment for your chance to win a $25.00 YNS Gift Certificate!!! You can comment each day to increase your chance of winning!

For my 12 Days of Christmas projects I decided to make 2 of my favorite things-a Tag and a Gift Card Holder!

For my Tag, I used the Cool Tag 4 Die Set, along with the adorable snowman from the Hot Cocoa Phoebe stamp set. I just LOVE him!!! I stamped him with Black Olive Ink and colored with Copic Markers. I do not have the die set so I simply cut him out with scissors. For the background I cut out a snowy hill using the Double Pierced Hills Die Set and added a tree cut with a die from the Skating Rink Scene Die Set. I added the snowflake from an older Whatnot Die Set and finally some Winter Wonderland Sparkly Gumdrops. So cute!

For my Gift Card Holder, I used the Gift Card Holder Die Set to cut the base out of some Doodlebug designer paper. I then stamped my darling image from Fleece Navidad with Black Olive Ink and colored with Copics. I cut it out with the coordinating Fleece Navidad Die Set and popped it up on my gift card holder. I used a Fishtail/Banner Die Set One die to cut a banner out of white cs and then used my Mini Misti Stamp tool to line up and stamp the sentiment. Finally, I added a couple of Winter Wonderland Sparkly Gumdrops and it was complete!
