November Mini Release Preview Day!!

Hi there, crafty friends!!!

I'm really excited to be here with you today because I have so many fun things to tell you about today! First up, let's talk about our New Mini Release items!


We have three new items that we're previewing today with a Design Team Blog Hop. Then, these items will be available for purchase on November 24th which also happens to be Black Friday - our BIGGEST sale day of the year!! These new items will also be part of our sale so you can get them at 25% off!!! Yahoooooooo!!!!!

Let's look at these new goodies. I'm going to start first with our new Unstoppable Stamps.


This is an amazing set of stamps which contains fun and funky spots, splatters, dots and dashes and they are really fun to play with especially for creating fun backgrounds. They are equally eye-catching stamped colorfully or even in black and white.

The sentiments are encouraging and positive perfect for many greeting occasions. You are going to soooo want these the minute you see all the projects made with these stamps by our talented team!

Next up is a new set called Magical Winter.


While the main images in this new set focus on these cute unicorns and a Winter theme if you look a little more closely you'll see that we've designed this set in such a way that you can use it any time of the year for occasions like birthdays and friendship and MORE!! 

You'll enjoy creating scenes with the additional images we've included in this set or dressing up the unicorns. The uni on two legs can be made to look as if she's skating by adding the ice skates over her. The unicorn on three legs can wear the scarf, hat or ear-muffs and can hold the present or coffee in her hand.

Some of the larger words in this set were illustrated by hand specifically for this set and combined with a fun and sweet font to create special greetings. All around a super-fun ad purposeful set we hope you love!


Of course, we had to bring you a set of coordinating Magical Winter Dies which will cut out the images in the set with precision and ease. YAY!

Here are a couple of projects I made using these new goodies. In full disclosure, I had the WORST LIGHTING EVER and I plan to re-shoot these photos first chance I get. K? Thanks!


I started with our Unstoppable Set and did a little ombré ink stamping with my favorite spots in the set. Then, using our Hello Word Die, I die cut my stamped card base and then cut my hello again several times from scraps so I could build up the hello and make it telescope off the card front. Then, I made a little flag and heat embossed a sentiment from the set so now my entire greeting reads, "Hello. You're the Best!". Isn't that sweet?





Here, I've used our new Magical Winter set and ER MEH GERD I love this tag!!!! I started with my Embossed Dots Tags which I've been slightly obsessed with lately and I added a background of clouds using my Border Builders Die Set. I also stamped some snowflakes from the set right onto my stone colored tag.  Then, I got coloring my unicorn and her coffee and scarf accessories. UMmmmmmm, THESE ARE WAY FUN to color!!!! AND EASY! Did I mention easy?? YES!!!! I decided to leave my unicorn basically white with just a little shadowing and did her mane and tail in pinks. Then, I used some pastel colored Copics to color her accessories. 


I die cut everything and laid it out as you see above and then heat embossed my sentiment in pink embossing powder - Grapefruit by Zing! to be exact. It's a terrific color!
Then, I used my favorite Wink Of Stella Pens in clear and gold; gold for her horn and clear for the mane and tail. Seriously, I love the way this came together.

Here's a little sneak peek at the gift in the bag this tag is hanging on.


I purchased this felt ornament at a craft fair this past weekend at our Middle School. I instantly fell in love and had to have one!
