Are you ready for some Day 2 cuteness? After the fun we had yesterday, who can imagine our release getting any better? Introducing our new Picket Fence die and Easter Egg-stravagance stamp set and coordinating dies.
The eggs included in the Easter Egg-stravagance stamp set were inspired by some lovely paper mache eggs found on Pinterest. Think soft pastels, florals, fabric, torn paper, etc. You’ll find multiple floral designs in this stamp set to create til your heart’s content.
You can use the egg-shaped floral designs or create your own patterns with single flowers and leaves. The possibilities are just waiting to be explored, and I have a feeling you, like myself, will be using the gorgeous flowers on many other projects. I cut one of my eggs from Bitty Big Sweet Blush paper and the second I cut from Vintage Cream and stamped using florals from the new set. My eggs are nestled in grass cut using the new Weave a Basket die…I love this grass!
I used the vines, leaves, and florals from this new set to create a lovely floral vine that wraps across my picket fence. Speaking of….notice our new Picket Fence die used in the background. It is irresistible! I have long been wishing for a picket fence that would be large enough to cover the majority of my card, leaving lots of space for flowers, pumpkins, hay bales, eggs, birds, signs and greetings, etc. The die is textured, so you can see details and dimension once cut, but I used the Weathered Wood Background stamp over my fence to create even more detail.
You are going to have so much fun with these new products! I am excited for you.

I am so excited to introduce you to our next group of products. Introducing the new Spring Carrots dies and Just Sentiments: Spring Blessings stamp set.
I am smitten with these carrots! I cut mine from a variety of different mediums, using up my patterned paper scraps and cardstock. I added ink blending to one of my carrots, wanting to achieve a wide assortment of shades of orange.
The Spring Carrots dies come in solids and also intricate, detailed designs. You can leave them one layered, or mat your intricate layer over a solid. Truly, the cutest carrots on earth, don’t you think? I bundled mine together by adding a twine bow over the top of my adorable carrot tops. You can see they’re textured dies as well, so adding a bit of ink blending really brings out the detail in them.
You’ll love our new Just Sentiments: Spring Blessings stamp set. Each sentiment included in this set is so well thought out and carries with it notes of this delightful time of year of growth, spring, beauty, and hope. I stamped my sentiment on a die cut In Stitches: Candy Swirl. I added one large flower cut using the Into the Blooms dies. I thought that happy daisy would be a perfect companion to my cute carrots. Isn’t creating fun?
I’ve seen what the other designers have created using this products and you are in for a delightful treat!
