Sneak Peek Day 4

Penny here! Welcome back to Day 4 of our June Release countdown! We are nearing the grand finale of our sneak peeks, and today’s showcase is an absolute dream for snail mail enthusiasts, stationery lovers, and anyone who cherishes the cozy, nostalgic aesthetic of handwritten letters.

 

Today, we are thrilled to introduce a gorgeous concept that celebrates the art of connection. Whether you want to build beautifully layered, vintage-inspired bundles of letters on your cards or add iconic airmail details to your stationery, today’s release is packed with texture, charm, and interactive possibilities.

 

Let’s take a look at the delightful sets making their debut today:

 

Stacked Mail Stamp Set & Die

Send a bundle of love with the charming Stacked Mail collection! This nostalgic set allows you to build a dimensional fanned bundle of letters tied up with twine. The clear stamp set features realistic postmarks, delicate faux postage stamps, a classic wax seal, and sweet sentiments designed to fit the mail theme perfectly. Use the coordinating wafer-thin dies to cleanly cut the envelope base, individual focal envelopes, cross-twine wraps, and miniature accent pieces for instant depth and texture on your card fronts.

 

Stacked Mail Stencil Collection

Add a delightful touch of classic nostalgia to your stationery projects! The Stacked Mail Stencil Collection works seamlessly with our envelope bases, allowing you to easily ink blend iconic, alternating airmail borders. Featuring a multi-step layering layout in two distinct sizes, these stencils let you combine your favorite ink colors to build perfectly crisp, striped borders that instantly dress up your handmade letters and packages.

 

Designer’s Free Space

Today our designers are also sharing projects created with their favorite products from across the release, mixed and matched in fresh and inspiring ways. It’s a beautiful reminder of how combining elements can open up even more creative possibilities.

 

Get ready to fall in love with your ink pads all over again! The Design Team has built the most spectacular projects using today’s line-up. You’ll be amazed to see how they used the Stacked Mail Stencils to create custom, vintage color palettes, and how the Stacked Mail dies look when layered with patterned paper and real twine accents! Grab a cozy cup of tea and enjoy browsing through the stunning design gallery below!
