For today’s blog hop I created two simple cards using the newly released products. For my first card I used Spark Joy: Ornamental Bouquet & Add-on Die Bundle and a hot foil technique using Hot Foil Roll - Enchanted Gold (Satin). Then, I used coordinating stencils and blended over the bouquet with light blue shades from Tranquility Crisp Dye Ink Bundle, purple from Sugarplums Crisp Dye Ink Bundle, pink from Spring Bouquet 6 Crisp Dye Ink Bundle, yellow from Fall Harvest Crisp Dye Ink Bundle and green from Tropical Forest Crisp Dye Ink Bundle.

To finish my card I added a sentiment from Elegant Sayings Stamp Set.

For my second card I used Sweater Pattern Builder Stencil Set (2 in 1) to create a simple colourful background. I blended over the stencils using Baby Pink and Fuchsia Crisp Dye Inks along with Forest Glades and Evergreen Fresh Dye Inks.

To finish it I added a sentiment from Happy Holidays Stamp Set with black
