Jaded Blossom August 2026 Release Day 1: TURKEY

Happy Monday friends! We are on Day 1 of the Jaded Blossom August 2026 Release. You can grab the entire "Gotta Have It Now Package" for a discounted amount! Individual items will be available for purchase on Thursday.

This month, we have a couple of new animal friends joining the family! First up, I'm showcasing Gnome Friends: Turkey Dies. This set with the Turkey Faces Stamp Set creates the cutest turkeys ever. When I saw the sentiment "Never Skip Leg Day" from the Gobble Squad Stamp Set + Outline Dies, I knew I wanted to create a turkey lifting weights. I was inspired by Lisa Dressel's workout gnome HERE, and used dies from Gnome Dies: Tiki Add Ons and Gnome Dies: Sport Add Ons 2 to create the weight bar.  

The background sky/clouds were created using the Vertical Stitched Cloud Card Mat Die. The bottom grassy area was created using Stitched Arch Dies and Mushroom Dies.

*********************************

The start of school is quickly approaching, so what better time than to show you some ideas for Teacher Appreciation gifts. Today, I used the Candy Bar Slider Die to create a holder for pencils for a male teacher. 

 

  

To create the gnome I used Gnome Dies and Gnome Dies: School Add Ons. The sentiment from School Candies *Grid Style* is stamped on Label Shape Dies 1. The tiny pencils are also from Gnome Dies: School Add Ons.
