November Release Roundup
Happy Saturday! I hope your weekend is off to a great start! And it’s only going to get better because we get an extra hour of sleep tonight with daylight savings! We just introduced our November goodies and today I’m going to share my favorite project created that each of our amazing design team created during the release!
Both Regina and Danielle designed incredibly clever gift card packaging using the Enjoy stamp set. Regina’s coffee cup is the perfect presentation for a gift we all love to give! And Danielle has been kind enough to share the wrench template she created for this amazing gift card holder as a FREE download!
Jami and Jackie took a more traditional approach to the Enjoy set by creating gift card packaging using a clear top hinged tin and a small hinged tin. Jami’s tin is the perfect solution for packaging up a pair of movie tickets. I love the simplistic approach she took by embossing the images in white. And Jackie’s beautiful coffee gift card tin includes all of her signature details: beautiful color and paper combinations and a sweet flag tag!
Charmaine combined two different images from From the Heart to create this adorable paint set for her kids. Wouldn’t it make a great birthday party favor!? And Donna showed how the small icons from Enjoy could be used to create a fun card too! Love all the purple and the pretty rose trim!
Tori and Jodi created beautiful cards using images from From the Heart and sentiments from the companion set, From the Heart Funnies. I love the contrast of the vintage colors on Jodi’s card with the bright sunshiney colors on Tori’s card. Jodi’s card has inspired me to use more Baker’s Twine (one trip around the card is not enough!) and Tori’s card has inspired me to get out my sewing machine again (look at all that beautiful stitching!).
Sankari and Karen G. both channeled the same theme using teapots from What’s Cookin’ and From the Heart. Sankari’s tea jar and card are so bright and made perfect with ever little dot of liquid pearls! Karen G. went sweet and simple, her signature style. I love the beautiful satin bow too!
Melissa and our Guest Designer Mona Pendleton both decided to dress up the apron from What’s Cookin’. I love all of the shabby chic details on Melissa’s card like the ruffled trim and the resin heart pocket! Mona’s sweet simplicity is made perfect by the big loopy bow and the embossed apron detail!
Karen M. and our Whimsical Wishes Illustrator Nancy used What’s Cookin’ to create the last two fabulous creations I’ll be sharing today! I love how Karen used the smaller icons as the focal images on her card. And Nancy’s paper pieced apron is absolutely gorgeous with the pretty pattern and sweet ribbon detailing!
