Pudgie Mouse & Best Wishes Circle Die

Hi Everyone!  It’s the 20th of March which means NEW releases at The Stamps Life and I have some cards to share with you. I fell in love with both of these new releases, and I think you will too:)

First up, is a new stamp and die set called Mousepudgie2stamp.  Stephanie announced today that there is going to be a new line of all different pudgie animals.  I can’t wait to see what she comes out with!

Here are some of the cards I made using this new, fun set.

I used the TSOL Card Box Die to make this adorable little pudgie mouse.  So simple using the dies!

Here’s another fun one…IMG_2403

I used the Sizzix Oval Flip-Its Card Die Set to make this one.

This was a fun card to make!  I just die cut some circles using Circle Dies by TSOL to look like cheese and stamped.

Lastly, this little lady sitting in front of her mouse hole home.  The sentiment on this card is from houses4us.

Isn’t this just the cutest mouse stamp set???

Best Wishes Die Set is so beautiful and can be used for so many occasions! I have two VERY simple cards to share with you that I made using this set.

Easy, right?  I adorned the side with Shabby Chic Flowers. I love the CAS look to this card.

Really simple, but I think it’s so elegant looking! No stamping involved, just a quick run through your die cut machine:)

And one more…IMG_2306

Same die, but a completely different look. Not as elegant, but still pretty.

Next up, is the Sizzix Border Words Set.

IMG_2313

Isn’t this SWEET?  I love this die!  I added a small felt flower using the Mini Flower Dies and added the candy using Sizzix Jar Stamps and Dies. Another simple card, but so cute and easy!

Lastly, the You Are Beautiful die in the set.  I love this die, too!

Hello everyone!  Happy Wednesday, we’re already half way throught the week!  This is one of two posts I have to share with you today.  It’s the 15th of March which means NEW RELEASES at The Stamps of Life.

Today, one of the releases is the March Card Kit.

 I LOVE everything that came in the kit, and made several cards to share with you today. This kit features The So Special Collection Patterned Paper with coordinationg cardstock.  I love how the papers and ink all match prefectly!

IMG_2473.JPG

Love these springtime colors and “So Special” die included in the kit.  The base of my card was made with the Sizzix/SB Flowers/Sentiments Scalloped Edge Drop-Ins and I also added the Sizzix/SB Triplits Butterfly to my card.  Super simple, but so “springy.”

IMG_2471

I love the sentiment and sparkly embellishment on this card which is also in the kit.  The added flowers are dies in the A2 Half Card Die Set and the dragonfly is from another Sizzix/SB Triplit set.

IMG_2470.JPG

On this card, I used  The Stamps of Life Tag Holder Die and paired it with the stamp set heartlocket2love.  The sentiment “WHAT A GREAT REASON TO CELEBRATE” is also part of the kit.  I love how the included ribbon matches perfectly too:)  No thinking on color combos, that part is done for you.

IMG_2468.JPG

This card features another great sentiment in the kit.  This patterned paper is one of my favorites in the kit with those adorable flower stickers.  In addition, I used bicycle2stamp and the cute little puppy in the basket is from postage2stamp.  She’s a replicar of Stephanie’s dog from TSOL:)  If you’re a fan of TSOL then you definitely know Cookie!

IMG_2467.JPG

I made a seed packet holder featuring the “Hello spring” stamp for this card.  Isn’t this patterned paper pretty?  I acheived the scallop on my cardfront by using Sizzix/SB Border Dies. I also used Sizzix/SB Circle and Dotted Circles to stamp my sentiment on.

IMG_2466

No card this time… but in this fun bag, a springtime treat:)  When I saw this treat bag Easter came to my mind right away. I’ll definitely be making some more of these, I think theyre so fun and cute!

These are just a few ideas of what you can make with the Card Kit…Soooo many more possibilities!

Bunny Cards

Where are you springtime?!  That’s my question of the day….  I think we’re up to 15 inches of snow and it’s still going strong!  I teach Kindergarten and we’re on our sixth snow day…Yikes! According to the calendar we have 6 more days.  I sure hope Mother Nature cooperates;)

I hope the start of this week is going well for all of you.

The first card I’m sharing with you was inspired from today’s snowstorm and question…Where are you springtime?

IMG_2472

Isn’t this the cutest bunny?  The stamps and die set is called bunnyfriend4bear. I also used sheep2stamp stamp/die set, which happens to be part of this month’s Stamp Club. The butterflies are from Sizzix Window Stamp/Die Set and the grass die  is an exclusive die to TSOL. To complete my card I also used the Sizzix Fence Die and Triplit set called Hello, Sunshine.  The flowers in the basket are from The Mini Flower Die Set. Now… if only I could see green grass and flowers….

My next card is an Easter card that I made the other day.  This stamp/die set is one of my all time favorites!  The bunny reminds me of my childhood….a chocolate bunny with a blue eye waiting in my Easter basket for me:)

IMG_2465

This bunny stamp/die set is called chocolatebunny2stamp. The basket filled with eggs is included in the bunny card I made above (see link above).  For the base of my card I used TSOL Stitched Rectangle Dies, Sizzix Dotted Circles and lastly Sizzix Scallop Circle Dies.

All papers and inks are also by TSOL.

Be sure to stop back tomorrow…There are some new releases coming out AND a Flash Sale!  I have some fun stamps and dies to share with you:)

Patterns4Sheep & Sayings4Sheep

Hello!  It’s the 7th of March which means a “Flash Sale” and new releases from The Stamps of Life!  Today, Patterns4Sheep is a Flash Sale item.  If you own the March Club Set Sheep2Stamp, or… if it’s on your wishlist, you’re definitely going to want this set. It comes with some great sentiments and some mix and match patterns:)

Here’s a card I made:

IMG_2261

I mounted my sheep on to Sizzix Circle Die Set and then on to a Sizzix Circle Scalloped Die.

Head on over to The Stamps of Life and check it out!!!

Also released today is Sayings4Sheep!  I had so much fun creating cards with these sentiments!

IMG_2268

This first card cracks me up!  I can very much relate to the term “fluffy” that’s exactly how I feel after this winter!  It’s hard to see in my photo, but I have multiple layers of felt which makes my sheep look a little “fluffy” 😉

A pretty simple card…and again I used the Sizzix Scallop Circle Die. (see link above)

IMG_2258.JPG

Here’s another simple card, but I think it turned out cute.  This time I embellished it with a Mini Flower Die  and a Heart Die, then I rolled some yarn in a ball and glued it down. From start to finish, this card took no time at all!

IMG_2269

Here’s another fun card.  For the base of my card I used the Sizzix Friends Forever Step-Ups Card Die .  The banner is from morechalksayings2stamp with Banner Die. I also used TSOL Grass Die and Sizzix Flowers and Fence Stamps and Dies.

All papers, ink, felt and ribbon are by The Stamps of Life.

Stand-Up Card and Mini Easter Carton

Hello everyone!  I hope you had a restful weekend and you’re  ready to start a new week! It was an extremely cold weekend where I live, so I was inside for most of it.  Just over a week ago it was 70 degrees out and this weekend down to single digits…Only in New England!

I have two things to share with you and everything I used can be found at The Stamps of Life.

First up, is a Stand-Up Card using Sizzix Stand-Up Circle Die Set for the base of my card along with Sizzix Scalloped Circles   Sizzix Half A2 Card and Sizzix Half Card Panels.

img_2463

The butterfly and flowers are all from the Half A2 Card Die Set, but the scroll along the bottom is from the newly released Half Card Panels.  I was thrilled when I discovered that the panels worked perfectly on Stand-Up Card Dies…It gives a whole new look to them!  The sentiment I used is from TSOL February Card Kit.

Next up, is the Mini Handle Box.I decided to get started on some Easter Dinner place settings and thought this die would work perfectly.  I filled each of the boxes with a few chocolate eggs:)

img_5190

The Easter basket and eggs are from the stamp/die set bunnyfriend4bear.  The tag is from Sizzix Tags and Words and the sentiment is from chocolatebunny2stamp.

All papers and ink on my card and box are from TSOL.

I embellished the top of my card with newportflower dies also from TSOL.

Next up, is an “i miss ewe” card.

For the background of my card I used the Mini Chevron Background Die Set.

My last card is a “Happy Birthday to Ewe” Flip-It .  I love Flip-Its because they’re an interactive card….you just can’t stop yourself from flipping it back and forth!
