Welcome to the My Creative Time 41st Edition Anniversary Release Blog Hop! You should have arrived here from the very talented Jessica. If you just happened upon here, you might want to head over to Emma's blog, to the beginning of the hop. This is a very fun release, and I hope you are as excited about it as we are!
For my first project today, I made a card using the gerber daisy from Love YOU Bunches. I stamped it in Black Versafine Ink and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder. I then watercolored it using some Tim Holtz distress inks. The rectangles were all die cut with the Stitched Rectangular Frame Dies, and I embossed my card base with the new Circle Stitching Pattern Dies.
The sentiment is also from Love YOU Bunches, stamped on a tag made with dies from the new Fun Stitched Tag Dies set!
For my second project, I made some fun stacked boxes that I found in the Silhouette Online Store. I decorated the top box with pretty flowers using the new Jr. Rolled Flower Dies, along with leaves from the Stitched Pretty Flower & Leaves Dies.
I love the new rolled flower dies. They are so adorable in the smaller sizes!
Here's a closer look at the new sets I used on today's projects. They are available for purchase now in the My Creative Time Store!
**Freebie Stamp**
