New Release Hop - Group Post Day

Hello and welcome to the final day of our new release hop - Group Post Day!

 We released lots of new goodies this week. Let's re-cap!

Balloon Builders Stamp Set is  a set of fun balloon shaped stamps in fun and trendy patterns which are made to perfectly stamp on our (previously released) Balloon Dies! These are AWESOME! The sentiment in this set are great too; perfect for Birthdays, Valentine's Day and more! One of the most fun parts about this stamp set are the Balloon Strings stamps! Love love love this set!! I find that you can really get creative with your project layout depending on how you arrange the balloons over this stamp. You can put them at different heights and use different size balloons for really unique looks. Lots of versatility in this set.

We've even added a NEW DIE to enhance this collection. Check it out.....

This die will cut an exact replica of the balloon string trio stamp in our Balloon Builders collection but it's just larger enough so that the stamp can actually be stamped on this die cut. This die actually has a built in alignment tool for perfect stamping. To see our tutorial using a die with an alignment tool CLICK HERE.. This die is super fun to work with and looks so great with our die cut balloons especially when they are stamped with our new fun patterns!

Also we have our new Mini Party Die Set! This set of thirteen individual dies comes neatly packaged on a magnetic sheet for neat and easy storage. 

You will notice that there are some repeat balloon dies in this set from our original Balloon Die set. They are just such a perfect mini size that it only made sense to include them in this set. The nice thing about the repetition of these dies is that our new Balloon Builders stamp set will also coordinate with this set! The new pieces in this set are pretty cool too! You will receive a super mini balloon, a long skinny balloon and stitched balloon stick/string. Then, you will also receive an entire set of mini party hats and the little decor pieces to dress them up. We've kept the cost of this set very affordable so that if you do already own our original Balloon Dies this will still be a fabulous addition to your die collection!

Bunny Star from 2 Cute Ink is a mini stamp set featuring this adorable bunny image and star themed sentiments. It's perfect for teacher's cards or young children's birthday cards. Super cute! It has a mini price tag too!

Stirring in Lots of Love from Sugar Kissed Cottage is an adorable image of a young vintage inspired girl baking up something sweet for you! I just love the sweet and curly font we paired with this sweet image. This would be a great stamp set for cards for friends, to add to home made treats or even recipe cards! Love this!!

Eat Dessert First from Sugar Kissed Cottage is so sweet too! It features a darling image of two young friends at the ice cream shop sharing a treat. It also uses the same sweet and curly font and has a great collection of sentiments!

Snarky Lady I is the first in a series of Snarky Ladies we'll be releasing. It features a demure and proper vintage lady but we couldn't resist pairing her with some snarky and humorous sentiments. This is a really fun set with a little sense of humor and I just love it!!! This is a perfect set to make just because cards with or humorous birthday cards! 

Also available (while supplies last) is this great little Love Story 6x6 Paper Pad from Echo Park! We thought this was a perfect set of papers to coordinate with our Sugar Kissed Cottage and 2 Cute Ink sets!

Here are the projects I made using this week's new release goodies!

This last project is new for today. It's just a little something. I wanted to show you how fun our Stirring In Lots of Love Set is when used to decorate a recipe card. IF you can read my hand writing below this is my recipe for my famous and delicious homemade pizza!! It's very simple! It's the combo of the cheeses that makes this pizza out of site! Try it!

Everything that we've released this week is already stocked and available in our store HERE! Also, our Winter Greetings Stamp Set and Snowflake Die Bundle has been restocked!! If you purchased our Snowflake Dies a few weeks ago when they were restocked and have been waiting for the stamps to arrive, if you purchase the Winter Greetings Stamp Set I will honor our reduced bundled pricing and refund you after you've made your purchase.

Before you go, while it's going to be a great group post today we do have a little bit of sad news. Our beloved Design Team Member, and more importantly, friend Emily Leiphart will be leaving us after the conclusion of this release. I am going to really miss Emily and I know that you, our customers and fans, will miss seeing her fresh and creative projects and the innovative ways Emily featured our products. I will miss having Emily on our team so much! I will miss having her as part of our regular group chat too. Thank you, Em for everything! You've been an invaluable part of our little family and you will be greatly missed! Best of luck, Love!
