Cut. Fold. Tuck.

Have you seen the newest in the Spellbinder's famiy...The cut, fold and tuck dies? Oh my gosh, you are going to love these! This very complicated looking flower took just a few minutes to make. Scrap-mart is now taking pre-orders for the newest products from Spellbinders. I used the Angle Approach, which comes with three dies that can be layered or used alone. I used Core'Dinations cardstock and Distress Inks to acheive 3 shades of pink on the rosette. I bet you noticed the gorgeous embossing on this card too.... Yep, those are the brand new M-bossabilities embossing folders, also from Spellbinders. These are so cool, because each folder has two different designs that look great together. This is the Sea Beauty which is one of my favorites. I think Spellbinders introduced 20 different folders - so that's 40 new designs. Ahhh, be still my heart! I love them and I know once you get your hands on them, you are going to feel the same!

From Paris With Love


I'm sliding in with less than an hour to go for the challenge at sweet Debbie's Shabby Tea Room! The challenge was a picture inspiration with lots of fun red and white - and to also use a postal element. Not only did I use the JustRite Stamps (Greetings From Paris) with my postcard theme, but I used the Postage Stamp Spellbinders, and even used a peel-n-stick gold sticker with a stamp edge around my heart. My fancy heart was cut using the Quickutz Nesting Doily hearts, and the card base was cut with their Nesting Hearts die set. I embossed my stamped images with Wow! Embossing Powder in Cable Car Red, which is a really clear, bright red that I love!

Challenges:
The Shabby Tea Room: Picture Inspiration + mail theme
JustRite: For the Love Of...

Hoot Loves You?


Have you seen the Valentine release from CottageCutz? It's so cute! And I have a sweet pair of love birds to share with you. These owls (Hoot Loves You) are just adorable, and by leaving off the hearts, you could use them for anything!

Challenges:
Simon Says: Animal Antics
