Hello and welcome to the Your Next Stamp April new release blog hop.
We are at the half way point of the month and I feel like this month is flying by me. It has been a busy month and I have been wearing a number of hats as mom, wife, boss, taxi driver, event planner, nurse, house keeper..........I really can go on. Today I am excited to be wearing my crafty hat and showing of a couple of projects for this months YNS release.
I am super excited about this first project. It's very clean and simple, but since it features another of my favourite things, I wanted the image to be centre stage. My first project is a bookmark created using the new BOOKWORMS RULE and the LARGE BOOKMARK die.
That pile of books is a common mess to be found in my house. Definitely one mess I don't mind having. I don't have a lot of time these days to read, however I am happy to see that my kids share the same love of reading.
Here is a look at the back of the bookmark. The paper is from Simple Stories Enchanted collection.
Stamps and Dies used:
For my second creation, I play around with a few dies and the TEAR AWAY SENTIMENTS TWO stamp set. I used the NOTEBOOK EDGE die and the TEAR AWAY SMALL die to create this fun interactive pull tab panel for a birthday card.
Under each of the pull tabs I added sentiments from the TEAR AWAY SENTIMENTS TWO stamp set.
Since I like to decorate the inside, I thought it was a great place for another tab using the TEAR AWAY TAB (MEDIUM) die.
