The Big Word Love Die from the recent LDRS November Collection is perfect for creating with both the positive and the negative elements. And because I wanted my cards to have a spring vibe I combined the Love sentiment with the Flower Doodles Collection. Also the large ‘O’ opening in the negative portion of the Love sentiment was just calling out for a flower in the centre of it.

Read MoreThere is a super fun new release from Your Next Stamp that arrived in the online store last week. Hopefully you have had a chance to check out all the new stencils, stamps and dies and also the sale. The holiday is always a fun release and so many amazing ideas to craft with for the holiday season. Today I have a card that takes advantage of the Winter Scene Ornament Set and gives the recipient a two for one. They receive both a card and an ornament they can hang. There are so many options for creating a scene within the ornament. Your Next Stamp even has a collection of pre-created scenes that can be added to the ornament and the little snow globe die. Today I choose to create my own scene.

Read MoreHave you started on Valentine’s Day cards yet? Sam here playing with the new Strip Dies. The new release is now available in the LDRS shop and in addition to all the new fun playful stamps, there are these super useful dies for creating strips of different sizes and widths. So with the addition of the heart die from the Slimline Scallop Die Set, I took my colourful strips and turned them into these fun little graphic hearts. The final card ended up being 5”x7” because I felt the 6 hearts looked to crammed together on a smaller A2 size card base.
Read MoreJanuary is the month I pull out all of my adorable stamps about “Love”. In my house usually the upcoming Valentines Day is about making a few cards for my boys and some fun cards for their friends (not so much now that they are older). However if the past couple of years has taught me anything, sending a card to let people know that you love and appreciate them is important at anytime, so all those Valentine’s stamps are great for love messages all year round : ) Your Next Stamps January release is a mini one, but it is full of love to share.
