It's a DieCember Party!

Hi friends! Happy DieCember! I'm excited to be part of this fun, blog party! There is so much inspiration to be found today, so I hope you get the chance to check out all the crafters who are participating. You can start at Simon's blog, where they have a list of links to all the makers from around the world, helping celebrate DieCember.

Here's a link to all the Simon Brand Galleries, and here's the link to the new, DieCember Gallery. There is so much inspiration to see! I encourage you to check them out and add your own cards/projects as well! 

MY CARDS:

I'm so grateful that I was sent some DieCember products to play with but I must admit, I struggled a bit with my mojo last month. Every once in awhile, my mojo takes a hike and this was one of those times. I'm not thrilled with how a couple of these cards turned out but will still share them because that's life sometimes!

Up first is this card using the adorable, Cozy Together stamp set, along with the lovely, Nordic Arch and Corners die set. I wanted a really soft look, so I just used a light pink ink before white embossing the image.

 

For my next card, I used the really cool, Postage Collage Cover die set. This set is so versatile and could be used in so many different ways! The sentiments you see are from the Everyday EZ Strips - and get this - they were cut out with the matching, EZ Strips Rectangles die! Check the second photo to see what I'm talking about. The die lines up perfectly with all the sentiments and cuts them out all at once. Love that!

Okay, so I used the Postage Collage Cover die set again, for my next two cards, along with the Cozy Together stamp set. Two totally different cards. I only used the outer frame for this one.

And this one was created using the outer frame plus the insides of the scalloped squares too. So fun!

That's it for me. I hope I've given you a few ideas for using some of the products from this fun release! Thanks so much for stopping by and Happy DieCember!
