Happy July!

Wow!  July already?  Really? New month, new stamp club and die club sets are released at The Stamps of Life.  Yay!

I loooooooooove this set!!  Who doesn't love rainbows?  This is really cute and fun. Rainbow2stamp.

Here's a card I have to share with you today. I used the circle stand up card die set.

 Papers are The Stamps of Life. I colored the rainbow with my TSOL markers, and then I embossed it with diamond sparkle embossing powder.

 Same for the word colorful

 and using my alcohol inks, I colored my bling rainbowy colors, too. ;)

If you're not a member, the dies will be available to you on the 20th. If you're a member, stamps and dies are on their way!

NEW dies at TSOL! :)

Released earlier this week at The Stamps of Life, two new die sets!

One was a much requested die set to go with the house4us stamp set. House dies.

This is such a cute house stamp set and makes for cute little scenes.  I created this welcome (to the neighborhood) card using the kind sentiment step up die set.

 The other is a HUGE banner die set that is perfect for party decorations or home decor or classroom decorations. Comes with 3 dies.

Just Pray 3d drop in die set:

Here are a couple of samples I created using it, along with other sizzix/stephanie barnard die sets.

and Thank you circle 3d drop in set:

PLEASE NOTE:  there was a design change to the dies after I created these cards.. not a huge change, but the thank you has a smaller connection to the card now.  I loved like this, but I love it even more with the smaller connection and look forward to using the new set.  BUT, the idea of the cards remain the same.  FUN!  

YIKES!

SHARK!!! lol!  Sharkpudgie has been released at The Stamps of Life.  It's a shark stamp and die set. It's fun!  It's sharky face makes me laugh.  I love it!

sayings4fish

It's the 7th so that means coordinating stamp sets for the stamp of the month club at The Stamps of Life are released! This month it is sayings4fish.

I love fish stuff, so these are extra awesome to me!  Here's a card I created using the fish2stamp and the sayings4fish along with TSOL cake2stamp set. 

 For the background of the fish.....I used watercolor paper with The Stamps of Life markers and water brush pen.  Then I sprinkled salt on it and let dry. Fish and cake were also colored using TSOL markers and water pen.  Stitched rectangle die set was used (it's a fave as I'm sure you've noticed. :) )

Also new at The Stamps of Life, double mini banner stamp/die set.

Here's a card I created using it. I also used it along with the ballons2stamp and cut, and the cute as a bug step up card die set. Inks are The Samps of Life. 

butterfly fold it!

I so very much LOVE shaped cards!  This butterfly is beautiful!  You can make a pretty impressive and pretty card quickly.

Butterfly Fold it by Sizzix/Stephanie Barnard at The Stamps of Life.

Easy beautiful shaped butterfly card.

 But it doesn't have to be: so pretty on a card!

 And again on a regular card, but you can cut the swirly butterfly shape right on the card without cutting it out (you need two pieces to cut it out). Lots of options!  So pretty :)

Birthday!

There's a new statement stamp/die set at The Stamps of Life called Birthday Statement!

These are really fun and versatile.

I created two cards to share:  One for a birthday girl and one for a boy.  I love the font of this birthday die: so pretty! :)

Fish2stamp is the new stamp club set (and dies for die hard members) over at The Stamps of Life.

Here is a card I created using it:

I love slider cards.  I used the slider dies from The Stamps of Life, along with sunburst2stamp, waves from sandals die set and whale die set.  Also stitched rectangle die for border. All colored with TSOL markers and ink pads. 

mini pillow die...

it's so little! it's so cute!  perfect for little party treats, or gift giving...like jewelry :) 

Here's a couple I created using the mini pillow die:

Here is a quick and easy card, but isn't it still cute?

 And this one I added sizzix framelits with stamps, stamps to it because I love those bugs. ;)
