Waffle Flower April release Blog Hop

Hello everyone!

  Welcome to Waffle Flower’s April 2021 Release day! I’m happy to be hopping with the folks from Waffle Flower to show you all the fun new stuff awaiting you on the Waffle Flower website! This month, the Waffle Flower release is full of stamps, dies, and stencils that celebrate the hope and joy of Spring!

   And today I want to show you my 4 cards using awesome new products from Waffle Flower. 

  For my first card I used an adorable stamp set with doggies called - Birthday Puppies Stamp Set. I stamped two dogs with black Memento ink, colored them with Copic markers and cut out with coordinating dies. I decided to create a two card backgrounds to make this card more fun. 

 At first, I applied light brow ink through the Brick stencil on a white panel, on the bottom of this panel I applied light grey ink and then I cut out an oval piece from this panel using Oval nesting die set. Next, on the white card base I applied pink and blue ink through the Confetti Stencil. 

 I want to make my next card in monochromatic colors, so I pick my favorite blue shade of a regular smooth cardstock. I heat emboss a floral bouquet and a basket with a white embossing powder. Those flowers from Jumbo Flower Pot Stamp Set are so beautiful and they look awesome even without coloring! To create a card background I cut out a white panel using Triple Line Diamond Panel Die.

For this card I made a colorful card background, I blend different distress inks on a white card panel and covered it with a white die cut I made using Stitched Diamond Panel Die. I finish my card by adding an  oversized die cut sentiment - Smile.

For my last card I also used a panel die - Stitched Flower Panel Die. I run it through my die cutting machine with a piece of mint colo cardstock and I leave all the negative die cuts in their places. With a stitched rectangle die I cut out a small panel to place my sentiment. I stamped a phrase "love your" using Pennant Alpha Stamp Set and add shadows using Pennant Alpha Duo-tone Stencil and darker inks. I cut out letters with coordinating die and foam mount them on the panel. Below the stamped letters I placed a gold die cut "Smile".
