Release Day Blog Hop!

I can't BELIEVE it's already the 5th of January.....wasn't summer just over? Pfffft.....guess not. Oh well....that just means that THIS summer is closer, right ;)?

Well, we are beating the cold weather blues with a super fabby release tonight and I can't wait to share the full reveals with you. Have you enjoyed the hop thus far? It's been amazing, as usual.

For your final stop in the hop I have a few CAS cards to share with you.....

First up is a card I created with Dina Kowal's new set, Together Silhouettes.

I paper pieced the umbrella with some Happy Days paper by Echo Park, used my score board to create some additional visual appeal and added a few pearls. Easy peasy!

This next one features that adorable teddy, Rhubarb, in his newest set, Love From Rhubarb. I just adore this sweet little bear. :)

I saw a really fun layout in the back of the recent Stamp It! Cards magazine so I decided to CASE it :). I added some crackle paint around the kraft CS panel, stitched a "ground" for Rhubarb to stand on with my sewing machine, stamped the additional sentiment and added some ribbon and pearls. The image is colored with my Copics. I did add a bit of sparkle with a red Stickles outline around the heart.

My next share is actually a set of cards.....Valentines to be exact.....made with the new Punny Fruits & Veggies set.


These are super easy to duplicate because they all follow the same layout. Little sets like this are great for using up your DP scraps :).

And how about one more.....You already know Cocoa Mouse, but have you met his girlfriend, Cookie? We have some digis that already feature her, but now she's got her very own clear stamp set, which also happens to be our Free with $50 set for this month, Girly Girl Cookie :)....I didn't have time to whip up a new card with this set yet, so I grabbed an older card I made with the digital image.

Isn't she SWEEEEEET? ;)

Well, that's all for me for now.....but be sure to join us tonight for our Release Party in our Member Company forums over on Splitcoaststampers. The fun starts at 8pm EST. I'll have more samples to share along with full reveals, challenges and lots of fun with friends :). See you then!!

XOXO

Your silhouette so simply stamped on the white background - is truly stunning. The little bit of scoring and the pop of color in the umbrella is perfect! And I love Rhubarb on the kraft background - his heart just glows!
