Waffle Flower October release Blog Hop

 Hello everyone!

Welcome to the Waffle Flower October Release Blog Hop! 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!  Be sure to check out each stop in today’s blog hop for fun, inspiration, and chances to win some of these new release goodies!

Next on the hop is Jennifer McGuire!


As always I have a lot of fun cards to share with you today! 
  For my first card I used a new die and stencils called Layered Boxes Die and Small Prints Stencil they work perfectly together. I placed the cute gift boxes inside of a pink pinetree frame, I cut it out using Pine Branch Panel Die.


  For the card background I picked a light pink dotted pattern paper from Half-Half Dots - Botanical Paper Pad. To create a gold foiled sentiment I used a leftover foil I got after foiling with Subsentiments Christmas Foil Plate. To work with foil negatives\leftovers you will need a special foil plate as - Solid Foil Plate 5x6.


  This month we have two new scene builder panel dies! The first one is Winter Cityscape Die. It's a perfect die to create one layered scenes or dimensional card backgrounds with stamped images. 

  On my first example with this die I used distress inks to color the sky and other landscape pieces and I added snow here and there with my snow pen. I stamped a few images from Winter Fun  Stamp set and colored them with Copic markers. 


  For my second exemple I used a colored cardstock only without a double sided adhesive foam. I added some details with a white gel pen and yellow and grey Copic markers.


The second cover die is Winter Lake Die for building a natural landscapes on the card. It also works with Winter Fun Combo or any other small critter stamps. 


   You can mix and match the diecuts and add less or more details, like I did on the next card. I skipped the sky parts with snow and created the card background with the distress inks and I cut out more pine trees to create a real snow forest for my stamped snowpens from Winter Fun Stamp.


  I'm so excited to present two birth flower stamp sets. It's still warm here in Krakow so I'm happy to create more floral cards. 

  For this card I stamped twice the biggest flower from Narcissus - December Birth Flower and attached them on a white arch panel that I cut out with Nesting Portrait Arches Die. I heat embossed the sentiment from Hello Friend Sentiments.


  The second floral stamp is Snow Drop - January Birth Flower. Again, I used Nesting Portrait Arches Die to create a nice frame for the flowers. Can you see the embossed panel behind the flowers? I made it using a Swag foil plate without foil and a foiling machine :) You can dry emboss with  every one of our foil plates just look through the guid of your die cutting machine. 

  I decorated the card with a few clear enamel dots and heat embossed sentiment - Hello Friend Sentiments.


  For the second card I created more delicate flowers and put them inside of the pink frame, I cut it out with a die from Fancy Frames Die. 

  I hope you can see that my pink card panel has some texture? I was playing with a vellum and a new Winter Crystal Die. I decided to create a panel full of almost invisible winter crystals :)   .
 

  And here are a few cards using this Winter Crystal die and a regular cardstock :) You can create frames and shadows for your winter crystal using a two coordinating dies from this set. I placed my die cut on a Radiating Circle Frame Die cut. Using Tiny Dot Stencil and gold glitter paste I created a shiny card background.


I placed a gold foiled sentiment in the centre of the crystal


To create an extra dimension I cut out a few light pink crystals and stacked them together with a liquid glue. 


I absolutely love how the crystal looks when I cut it out with a white glitter cardstock! I placed the crystal on a kraft card panel I cut out using Dashed Snowflake Panel Die.


  Last but not least, a super cool combo from Nina - Winter Leaves Bundle. It consists of a foil plate, coordinating die, stencil and stamp set!


  For my first card example I used stamps, dies and stencil from Winter Leaves Bundle. I foam mount the leaves on the embossed white card panel.



For my second card I used a foil plate to create shiny gold veins on the leaves. And I colored the leaves with distress inks and a coordinating stencil.


Thanks so much for staying with me :)
