BESTIE BEADED BRACELETS, HEART IN HAND DIE SETS AND BESTIE ALPHABET BP

Friendship bracelets can be used for any occasion. I focused my card about getting out the VOTE on November 5th!

I just love the concept of this collection. How cute are these bracelets?!? My card uses the Bestie Alphabet Beads BetterPress plates, the Bestie Beaded Bracelets die set, and the Bestie Heart in Hand die sets to bring my message to life. I used the Stargazer embossing folder in the background and added a few star die cuts as accents. How cute would these be for a Birthday, Graduation, Miss you, really anything! I love how this turned out.

OCTOBER 2024 WAX SEAL OF THE MONTH AND HOLIDAY BLOOMS DIE SET

 

This month's Wax Seal stamp is called "Season of Wonder" and features the saying, Most wonderful time of the year in a really cute font! I started out using the Christmas mix of wax beads and used 1 of each color, but switched out the gold for a black one.

The poinsettias, blooms and greenery are from the gorgeous Holiday Blooms die set. I absolutely love this die set and thought the flowers would frame my wax seal nicely. I used patterned paper called A Wonderful Christmas by Carta Bella. I used it for the background and I die cut the flowers and greenery from it. I used a few wax drops for the flower centers. I love how this turned out.

OCTOBER SMALL DIE AND STENCIL OF THE MONTH

This month's Small Die is called "Festive Friends" and features an adorable penguin, polar bear and some string lights. It's super cute!!

The Stencil set is called "Baubles and Festive Background" and has 4 layering stencils, 2 create ornaments and 2 creates a fun pattern.

For my background I used glossy gel with one of the stencils on a solid piece from the Snow Days paper pad. I die cut the polar bear sweater from the same papers. I love the soft colors in this paper pad and let them guide me for the entire card. That penguin is the absolute cutest! It's hard to see in the picture, I used white glitter foam for his santa hat I love the extra something glitter foam and cardstock brings to cards. If you love the penguin, stay tuned you will see him again in another card using the Wax Seal of the Month!

I just love how this turned out!

Like many other crafters, I am having serious issues with Blogger. They are unpublishing most of my new posts and even some older blog posts. It seems that behind the scenes, my blog is getting hit with some kind of spam/spider/bots and it's triggering Blogger to remove my posts for "Community Guidelines violations". I appeal the decision and MOST of the time my blog post is put back, but not all, so I wanted to repost a card that was removed months ago and I just can't get it reinstated.

This water colored floral card was originally posted in September 2022:

 

I colored these diecuts with a fun technique called Ink Smooshing. And it's pretty much as it sounds, just apply the ink to your surface (I have a Tim Holtz glass media mat), spritz with water and then smoosh your paper over the ink. Lift and dab around until you get the look you want. In this case, I used Distress Oxide inks.
I used Tim Holtz Brushstroke Flowers #2 dies. At first I was intimidated on how to put these together, but Tim is brilliant and there is a faint embossed outline on the main flowers that shows where the accent pieces go. Made it really easy!
