August Stamp Release - Sneaky Peek #1

HAPPY MONDAY & welcome to day 1 of my August Stamp Release ~9th Edition!!! OMG...what a release this is!!! All I have to say is that each time I got an email from each one of my designers w/their projects showcasing this release, I was TOTALLY FLOORED!!! They are one AWESOME, TALENTED & SWEET group of ladies! I am SO DARN PROUD to have them all on my team!;) Okay, there is LOTS to see, so lets get started! For today, my design team & I are showcasing a stamp set I am releasing this Friday morning called "Home Sewn"! The reason it is called "Home Sewn", is because I combined a "Home" & "Sewing" stamp set together! After SEVERAL emails requesting them both, I just thought to make these two together! We are also showcasing this AWESOME die I have been wanting to design for a looooong time now! I thought it went PERFECT w/this release along w/ALOT of my other stamp sets you already own! This die is called "Stitched Oval" shaped die!!! As you can see, I designed this to have the stitches there for you already & I just LOVE it!! I also used the die that comes w/my other die set I have out already called "Scallop & Stitched Circle" dies!

I also forgot to mention in my video that the "Fabric paper" I used for my 1st card is by "American Crafts" & it is called "Falling for You"! I picked it up this weekend at our Scrapbook Expo!

My card size is 4 x 3 3/4!

For my second card, I used a 6x6 paper stack from "My Mind's Eye" Lost & Found Two! I also got this from the Scrapbook Expo this weekend!

sideview of my card!;) I LOVE making 3x6 cards!:)

Here is a quick short video showing you what I used for my 2 cards today!

Now, introducing to you.... THE BEST DESIGN TEAM EVERRRRRRR!;)
