Kerri 1:23 AM 0 Comments

Hello! It’s time for another Your Next Stamp Fun Friday Challenge and this time we want to see your CAS Style!

For my card I used the adorable Love and Smiles Stamp Set. I started by sponging my background with Tumbled Glass and Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide Ink. I then stamped my image with Black Olive Ink and colored with Copics. I cut it out and popped it up with foam tape over the background.

For the sentiment, I used the new Fancy Wishing Word Die along with a sentiment from the Magical Wishing Wells Stamp Set. Finally, I added a couple The Perfect Blend Gumdrops and it was complete! Very simple!

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!
