Studio Calico January Reveal

Hi everyone! Yesterday, Studio Calico revealed their January kits which means they are now available for purchase! Today, I’m sharing the cards I made using the Copper Mountain main card kit and Spaulding Bowl card kit add-on.

For my first main kit only card I started with the small heart stamp to create my background. Then I added patterned paper, watercoloured cardstock and gold thread for extra accent. I also stamped the sentiment onto the cute whale die that comes with the kit:

For my second card I used cute little heart die, stripe of patterned paper and embellishments that come with the main kit:

My next card is super quick and easy crated with patterned paper and sentiment stamp from the Spaulding Bowl add-on kit:

And the last one uses one of my favourites, dotted ombre washi tape that comes with the January add-on:

I had a lot of fun with the kits this month and can't wait to create more designs with them! They're so great to use!

Thanks for stopping by today!

Happy Birthday

Hello everyone! Just quickly popping in to share a card I created using Cube It stamp set by Jane’s Doodles:

The background was embossed in white and watercoloured with shades of green. Then I added the mini label die from Tim Holtz, a thread for extra accent and some rhinestones to finish it off.
