Late4Birthday Dies-The Stamps of Life

Hello everyone!  I’m back today with a second post,  because I have a REALLY cute die set to share that was released today.  It goes with the late4birthday stamp set that was released back in 2010.  Now it has coordinating dies… no more fussy cutting!

I have always loved this set…I’m pretty good at remembering birthdays, but every now and then one sneaks past me!

Here are the cards that I made:

I thought it would make a fun gatefold card using Sizzix Half A2 Card Die Set.

And the inside….

The grass in the background is an exclusive die to TSOL you can find here.

I have one more to share….

For the base and layer on my card, I used another exclusive die set to the TSOL called Stitched Squares Die Set.

I colored in all images with TSOL Marker Set One and Marker Set Two.

*All cardstock, patterned paper and inks are also by TSLOL*

Hello everyone!  Yesterday,  The Stamps of Life released the May Kit Club and it has lots of fun goodies in it!

For a closer look at the kit, take a look at Stephanie’s video here!

Card Kit of the Month

I recently started receiving the kits each month and love them!  I made a couple of cards to share with you today, using the kit,  and some other Stamps of Life products.

These are the cards I made:

I just LOVE this sentiment!  I made this card for a friend who has gone through some rough times, and has recently found happiness again!  In addition to the sentiment in the kit, I used brushstrokes2stamp stamp set along with TSOL Mini Flower Dies.  I love bright, happy colors!

IMG_5696.JPG

For this card, I was going with the theme of a happy heart:)  The Cheerful die is included in the kit.  As I’m posting this, I just realized I used Guava cardstock on both of my cards, it’s definitely a favorite color of mine!  I die cut my hearts using the Sizzix Heart Step-Ups Card Set.  The cute little bird was die cut from Sizzix Triplits Spring Bird. Lastly, the flower I used is from  Smile Embellishments Kit.

*All papers and inks used on both cards are by TSOL*

Next, is another simple Flip-its card.

It doesn’t get much easier than this! I used Sizzix/SB Lively Flip-its Card Set for my base and added a little tag to it.

One more…

I LOVE this set!  I have two grandkitties and this cat stamp set reminds me of one of them.  He’s so fluffy he looks pudgie:)

Here’s the sample I made:

I made my kitty looking out the window using TSOL Grid 2 Die Set and added curtains with Sizzix Border Dies. The sun peeking through is Sizzix Hello Sunshine Triplits and the flowers are from Friends Forever Step-Up Card Set.

A super easy one using the Lively Flip-its set again.

And one last card…

IMG_2538

For the base of my card, I used Sizzix/SB Bubbly Stand-Ups Card Die Set and because I’m not a colorer, decided to emboss my pudgie kitty. I added some felt flowers for interest and color using Quarter Flowers with Leaves Dies.

All inks, papers and felt I used can be found at TSOL.

I hope you enjoy the rest of the the weekend!

How cute are these?  Such a versatie set, and I love how you can fill the wagon with so many different things.

Squirrel Dies

These are the dies that coordinate with the set.  If you’re a Die Hard Club Member, these dies are already on the way to you, but if you’re a Stamp Club Member, or just want to buy the set, you have to wait until a bit later in the month for these to be available to you.

Here are some of the cards I made using this stamp/die set along with some other Stamps of Life, Sizzix/Stephanie Barnard items that can be found at The Stamps of Life.

IMG_2451.JPG

I used the Sizzix Square Stand-Up Card Die Set for the base of my card. I love how you can fit the small sentiments on the front of the wagon!

IMG_2456

Here’s another fun one!  In addition to the new stamp set, I also used Sizzix Dotted Circles Die, Sizzix Tags and Words Stamp/Die Set and Sizzix Banner Die.

This time I used the Sizzix Basic Step-Up Die set as my card base.  In addition, I used Sizzix Triplits Die, Hello Sunshine, Sizzix Flowers and Fence Stamo/Die Set and Friends Forever Step-Up Card Set (for the flowers).

Here’s another fun one, this time paired with Sizzix Triplits Bee Set.  The inside sentiment is: inside and out.

This last card worked perfectly with this patterned paper by TSOL!  To brighten it up, I added a flower using an exclusive die by The Stamps of Life called Shabby Chic Flowers.  The leaves on the flowers belong to another set you can find at TSOL called Quarter Flower Dies with Leaves.

And lastly, this one.  I embossed the chocolate icing on the cupcake using Sizzix/Stephanie Barnard Flower Power Embossing Folder. You have to look closely to see it, it didn’t photograph well.  I added my tag from Sizzix Tags and Words and stamped my sentiment using chocolatebunny2stamp. Fun, right?

All papers and inks I used are also from TSOL.
