Hello and welcome back! I've just returned from a fun family trip to London, Prague and Iceland with my girls. We saw many beautiful sights, took thousands of photos (thank goodness for digital!), learned interesting historical facts and sampled lots of new foods. I'll share some photos once we've finished with the July sneak peeks. A special thanks to Emily for keeping up with the blog and sharing the work of our fabulous June Guest Designers while I was away and also to our awesome warehouse staff for keeping things running smoothly.
Today is the start of Sneak Peeks for the new July Collection. We've got THREE days of sneak peeks and a GIVEAWAY on each day. Be sure to follow along and comment on each post so you'll maximize your chances of winning!
This release includes two highly requested stamp set themes. Today's set is called Summer Blooms and it's perfect for all your summer crafty projects. This set includes 13 floral elements and a fabulous Thank You sentiment.
Let's see what our talented designers have in store for you today.
Ilina is kicking things off with a bit of beautiful water coloring. I love how she embossed the flowers and leaves in white for a softer look.
The watercolor background and the onyx sequins set off the scene beautifully. The hello word die is a perfect sentiment for this card.
Melissa used the chevron banner die set to create a pocket for this pretty card. Clever!
A matching die set will be available which makes it so easy to layer the flowers and leaves to create a realistic bouquet. Do you see the pretty pearl stickers in the flower centers?
Lisa used the flowers and leaves to create a pretty background on this card. I love the variety of flowers in this new set.
Isn't this Thank You stamp awesome?!
Emily also chose to create a beautiful patterned card front with the flowers and leaves. She then used our new Stitched Circle Windows die set to create a window to stamp the Thank you stamp. Don't you just love the fresh colors on this card?
The blow is pretty finishing touch!
I hope you're excited about this new set. I've been wanting some new floral stamps for a while and it's a popular request. Want to win this set for FREE?
