Congrats on a New Home!

Hi guys! An early Happy British Columbia Day to all! As a Canadian shop, we’re celebrating this special day with a 15% OFF sitewide, today and tomorrow!

Today I have a card for you featuring multiple stamps and dies from different releases!

To set the scene, I used the body of the Home Sweet Home stand-alone die cut on The Sandstone Series – Cool Granite – Heavy Weight Premium Cardstock. I blended Hickory Smoke Distress Oxide ink onto it for some added shadowing. I then cut out the roof using the Mysterious Galaxy – Medium Weight Premium Cardstock. This cardstock has a subtle shimmer to it and I like it a lot for the roof!

I took some patterned paper and The Sandstone Series – Banana Boat – Premium Fine Paper to mimic wallpapers on the inside of the home.

I stamped and Copic colored images from multiple stamp sets, including Happy Track and Field (Chapter 2), Sweet Ride, Lucky Break, Bee Happy, Cuddly Sheeps Seasons’ Greetings, Rabbit Café, Summer Sunshine, My BFF, and Congratulations!

I took the adorable girl from Sweet Ride and the cute bunny from Happy Track and Field (Chapter 2) and placed them inside the home, looking out the window and the door. I took the boy from Lucky Break and place him in front of the house.

I then placed the tiny bee from Bee Happy on the window sill, and bells from Cuddly Sheep’s Season’s Greetings on the door for some extra décor!

I also gave the little bunny a rose which was from the My BFF stamp set!

I thought the home needed more decorations, so I stamped the plants from Rabbit Café multiple times, and used them as potted plants in front of this home.

I used sentiments from the Congratulations stamp set to finish off this card. I did some masking to make “Congratulations” into a short-form “Congrats!” as I thought the full version was a bit long for this card, and I’m happy with how it turned out!

For the final touch, I added the smiley sunshine from the Summer Sunshine stamp set to give the card a little warmth!

I hope you like today’s card. Thanks so much for stopping by!

And don’t forget, we are working hard on our next release, and we hope to bring you some new goodies real soon!

As promised, there will be more Giveaways! Make sure to continue reading all the way to the bottom for a chance to win some goodies 🙂 !

Today we are showcasing the Home Sweet Home stand-alone die. This die is just the prefect die to create the most adorable and fun background!  This set comes in two pieces, the pop-up roof and the house body.  I just love the detailing on this die. Give your cute critter stamps their first home sweet home! Now let’s check out the amazing samples from our talented designers!

Davina shares with us her beautiful card featuring this die and also stamps from our new release, Fun Adventure. I just love the story she has created here. It looks like the little girl and her puppy are heading out for a vacation! Love the blending on the roof and the lawn, and the paint splatters detail.

Next we have Noga with her adorable creation. Noga choose an eye-catching red roof in contrast to the pure white body of the house. I love how she incorporated the pair of cute hedgehogs (from our Hedgehogs in Love stamp set) in this scene, that is so clever! Loving the potted plant (from the Rabbit Cafe stamp set) which she placed on the window and her signature hearts decoration! The flowery wall paper is also a nice touch!

Then we have Lynnea sharing with us her gorgeous card! She did an awesome job ink blending the façades. She used the potted plant (from the Rabbit Café stamp set) and the cat – eating sundae^^ (from the Summer Sunshine stamp set) and placed them on the windows. The door opens up and the girl eating watermelon (also from the Summer Sunshine stamp set) appears! The sentiment ‘STAY SWEET’ is also from the Rabbit Café stamp set. Make sure you check out the video to see how easy this die is to assemble!

Last we have Ali with her new design. Ali did her own modification to the die to fit a standard sized card in landscape orientation, how cool is that! I love her use of kraft cardstock for this card, and how she trimmed down the window sections to form window frames! The background was nicely blended with Tumbled Glass distress oxide ink with a cloud stencil. The images on the card were from our Rabbit Café stamp set.

A HUGE Thank-You to our wonderful and talented Designers! Please head over to their blogs for more details on these cards.
