Our big giveaway post!!
AND today’s post too! 🙂
Today is our showcase of the “Blue Skies“. This 4″ x 6” set has gorgeous hot air balloons and is so much fun to use. It also has a coordinating Lawn Cuts die set! The design team has made the most amazing samples! We also have a little video on the bottom showcasing some fun ways of using the set including a card from start to finish!
Remember to click on the person’s name or card to see all of the details and leave these wonderful DT girls some comment love! 🙂
Elena‘s card is a vintage beauty! I love how she stamped Interlocking Backdrops over the balloon and her sweet pink clouds. Bannerific is a great addition here, too!
Chari‘s coloring is gorgeous! I love how she added the hearts and stars to the balloons and banners. So sweet! The curved sentiment is a great idea. I love that you can do that with clear stamps!
Yainea‘s sunset scene is beautiful! I love the balloons floating up the card, the gorgeous gold embossing, and the fun way she showcased her sentiment!
Tiffany‘s layout is amazing. She made it for the mom of this returning soldier. Isn’t that wonderful? I love her camouflage balloons and the way she tied the Lemon Lawn Trimmings around them. Quinn’s ABCs is perfect for her title!
Lynnette‘s cards are gorgeous. I love the way she colored the balloons, and a tall card with this set is genius! I also love how she stacked both sentiments. They look so great that way!
Melissa S.’s layout is stunning! I love how she paper pieced the balloons with white embossing on some Daphne’s Closet papers. It is so fun to make custom scrapbook embellishments with stamps! She also used our new Scalloped Circle Stackables dies, too!
I love how Latisha decorated the hot air balloon with the hearts from the set. They fit perfectly! This color scheme is totally gorgeous, and I love all of the floating hearts!
Melissa M.‘s Pink Lemonade layout is so much fun! I love the way she created custom embellishments with the hot air balloons. The coloring is so fun! She also created those fun circles using our new Circle Stackables dies!
Yainea used the Blue Skies dies to create some fun negative space for the clouds. I love that many of the dies in this set work with the stamps and without them! Misting makes a great sky, and I love the sentiment stamped on vellum!
Make sure you click on each of the design team’s names or pictures to go to their blogs and see the details of how they made their cards. You will walk away inspired for sure!
Now, I have a little video for you showing this set in action, some fun things you can do with it, and a card from start to finish. I hope you enjoy it! Watch it below or at our You Tube channel. (If you don’t have time to watch the whole thing, the card making starts at 5:25, and the “review” of everything starts at the 9:30 minute mark! 🙂 )
