Truly endless possibilities with this kit and this alphabet die font is AMAZING!

***Get your Alpha Bits Kit HERE***

My first card uses the Alpha Bits Dies to create my own sentiment which was perfect timing to make a card for my daughter who graduates from high school in 2 weeks!

I used colors that she is using for her grad party including Pink Champagne, Jalapeno, Spearmint, and Peaches 'n Cream.  Balloons are from Gnome Alone Birthday and were die cut from these colors of cardstock.  The stars from Bold Border Background Blocks were stamped in Banana Cream Pie ink.  Added in a sentiment tag stamped from Big Cheers Cling and Clear Combo which was heat embossed with Gold Sparkle Embossing Powder.

******************************** 

My next card features one of the drop shadow stencils included in the kit......HELLO.  

I've paired this with the new Wavy Stitched Stacklets and the Petite Scalloped Recctangle Stacklets.  I embellished the HELLO with florals from Garden Variety 2.  Finished it with a sentiment from Mini Strips Sending embossed in gold embossing powder.

********************************

Tall Tales Alpha die

Taylored Expressions / Shades of Spring

Welcome to the Shades of Spring new color release from Taylored Expressions!
We welcome 4 new colors...Bleu Cheese, Oat Milk, Brussels Sprout, and Green Tea.

I have 2 projects to share with you with one focusing on cardstock and one on the new ink!

I've used the newer die set called Garden Variety 2 to die cut shades of the new colors and arranged to create a wreath.  I've added gold accents by using the Gold Bits and Pieces.  Everything was tied together by adding in a gold heat embossed sentiment from Mini Strips Sending.

*******************

My second project uses the Create-In-Quads Poster Prints Layering Stencil with the new colors of ink.  I didn't realize how I much I was missing some green colors in my Taylored Expressions color lineup!  I adore these new green shades! 

Each card was embellished with dies and bits and pieces from Taylored Expressions.  Each card features a gold foiled sentiment from Hello Lovely.

*******************

Avery Elle / Brilliant Birthday

Hello!

I am here to celebrate birthdays with the Brilliant Birthday set!  It features a main sentiment but has the most amazing supporting scripty words to personalize your card or tag!

For my card, I made my husband's birthday card for this year (early!).  I used Balloon Wishes to stamp the balloons onto colored cardstock and then die cut using the coordinating Balloon Wishes Elle-ments.  I added some white pigment ink splatter to the balloons.  For the base of the card, the main sentiment was stamped and then personalized with 'husband'.  A die cut frame, from Scalloped Burst Elle-ments, done in kraft cardstock was added with foam adhesive.  The balloons were added with foam adhesive atop the tiny balloon strings (I'm sure it's supposed to be streamers ha!).  As a last touch, the solid stars were stamped in blue ink.  I love how simple this turned out.....my guy doesn't like bling or glitter so this is perfect!  🤣🤣

Supplies:
Brilliant Birthday
Balloon Wishes
Balloon Wishes Elle-ments
Scalloped Burst Elle-ments

There is a new die available called Garden Variety 2 with a new Rustic Watering Can.  I've die cut many flowers and stems from cardstock and ink blended with a darker shade to give the blooms depth.  The blooms were added to a Stitched Rectangle panel layered over a NEW fabulous background called Checking In.  Here, I've used Snow Cone ink over Gumball cardstock for a classic blue gingham!

Next up is a FAVORITE of mine and now available for purchase as it was first available as a Black Friday deal.....In The Kitchen.  I love vintage and these dishes so it was so fun to design my own with ink!

Ahhhhh......give me all the polka dots especially done in GOLD FOIL!!!  This card is just amazing in person with all it's foiling......the new background (Mini Slim Essential Patterns), the sentiment, and Daisy Dreams.

Next, I created a card set using the new Swirls and Twirls Foil It Panels.  Each one was foiled with the new foils......Cookie Monster, Jelly Donut, and Dragon Fruit.  Each panel was foiled, then ink blended at the bottom fading to the top, and then added to a coordinating panel of colored cardstock.
