Jaded Blossom April 2022 Release: SNEAK PEEK DAY 3

 Happy Wednesday Friends! Today we are on Day 3 of Sneak Peeks for the Jaded Blossom April 2022 Release. I'm so excited about this release because we are introducing a girl gnome to the line up!! If you are a gnome lover like me then this release is a MUST HAVE!! Be sure to check out the "Gotta Have It Now" package for the BEST deal.

On the Jaded Blossom Blog, we are showcasing two sentiments sets with coordinating outline dies: THANK YOU + THANK YOU OUTLINE DIE and THANKS + THANKS OUTLINE DIE. I always need sentiment sets to add to my collection and these are perfect for creating awesome hostess gifts! I used the Treat Tag Die to create a tag with words from both of the new sets.
 

I found some fabulous pen sets at Michaels, and thought they are perfect for gift-giving. The outside barrel colors are really pretty, and the uplifting sayings on each pen are awesome! I really should have purchased more of them because they make a great inexpensive gift.

Jaded Blossom April 2022 Release: SNEAK PEEK DAY 2

 Happy Tuesday Friends! Today we are on Day 2 of Sneak Peeks for the Jaded Blossom April 2022 Release. I'm so excited about this release because we are introducing a girl gnome to the line up!! If you are a gnome lover like me then this release is a MUST HAVE!! Be sure to check out the "Gotta Have It Now" package for the BEST deal.

On the Jaded Blossom Blog, we are showcasing CONGRATULATIONS Stamp Set + OUTLINE DIES and the SENTIMENT STRIP DIES. Since I'm loving the girl gnome, I had to color her up again. This time, I added a sweet face and a hat/flower from the Gnome Dies: Spring Add Ons to this awesome gal for a Retirement Card.

Skin: E50, E51, E00, E21, E11

To create the inked background, I cut a circle from a piece of scrap cardstock to use as my stencil mask. I laid it on top of my card base. Then I added ink to the circle opening using the clouds from Border Dies 2 and the grass from Mushroom Dies.

Jaded Blossom April 2022 Release: SNEAK PEEK DAY 1

Happy Monday Friends! Today we are on Day 1 of Sneak Peeks for the Jaded Blossom April 2022 Release. I'm so excited about this release because we are introducing a girl gnome to the line up!! If you are a gnome lover like me then this release is a MUST HAVE!! Be sure to check out the "Gotta Have It Now" package for the BEST deal.

On the Jaded Blossom Blog, we are showcasing GIRL GNOME DIES, GNOME DIES: SPRING ADD ONS, MOTHER'S DAY Stamp Set, and MOTHER'S DAY Outline Dies. I had so much fun creating this adorable ladybug girl gnome! I cut the pieces from Copic Xpress It Blending Card and colored in each piece with Copic Markers. I LOVE the detail and shading you get using markers! Isn't she the cutest ladybug ever?!!

Copics:
Skin: E50, E51, E00, E21, E11
Hair: E23, E27, E29
Red: R24, R35, R37, R39
Black: C3, C5, C7, C10, Black
Brown on Mushroom: E40, E41, E42, E43, E44

I found the ladybug paper pack on Amazon. The sentiment came from the new Mother's Day Stamp Set. I masked off the top and bottom of the sentiment so I could stamp the word "amazing" in black. Then I masked off the center of the sentiment so I could heat emboss the "For My" and "Mother" in white embossing powder on the black stripes.

Today, I created a Pumpkin Spice Coffee card. Yes, I know it's not the "season", but if you have pumpkin spice syrup then any day is pumpkin spice day haha! I found the perfect digital paper pack on Etsy called Pumpkin Spice Latte. To create the coffee bean banner, I used COFFEE BANNER DIES. The circle was created using the SCALLOP CIRCLE DIES. That adorable bunny image is from SOME BUNNY NEEDS COFFEE. I used the PUMPKIN STENCIL to add the pumpkin on the coffee cup. And, of course I had to add a pumpkin spice sentiment from PUMPKIN SPICE SEASON.

Jaded Blossom: FLORAL COFFEE ART

 Happy Friday friends! I'm back today for Jaded Blossom sharing a gold embossed/water color card using a beautiful image from a set called FLORAL COFFEE ART. I love to emboss floral images with gold embossing powder and color it in with watercolor. It adds elegance to any card. 

I stamped the image on watercolor paper using Versamark Ink, and heat embossed it in gold. Next, I used Spectrum Noir Aqua Markers and a paintbrush to color in the image.

 

Remember, Jaded Blossom has a current ANYTHING GOES CHALLENGE. You have until April 2nd to play along for a chance to win a free stamp set! And, be sure to check out the Jaded Blossom Store for all your stamps and gift giving supplies. They have various Cutting Dies to make party favors along with Favor Bags and Boxes. 

Hugs, 

Rosie
