I had so much fun playing with this Release and have 4 cards and some tags to share with you today. So let's get started.


Happy Everything, Everyday, All of the Time! My first card showcases the super fun new Year Round Fun set. This set includes the sweetest set of bears that are ready to celebrate just about any occasion.


I stamped the images from the Year Round Fun Stamp set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Year Round Fun Dies to diecut them out. I colored them with Copic markers and highlighted them with a white gel pen.

For the sentiment, I used the largest die from the Stitched Rectangle Set 2 Dies to diecut a piece of white cardstock. I stamped the "Happy" sentiment from the new Year Round Fun Stamp set with Versamark Watermark ink onto a piece of black cardstock and heat embossed with Detail White Embossing Powder. I trimmed the sentiment out with a paper trimmer. I stamped the "everything, everyday, all of the time" sentiment from the same stamp set directly onto the panel with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. 


I adhered the "Happy" sentiment and colored images to the panel with foam tape for a bit of dimension and interest. The panel was adhered to a piece of red cardstock before it was adhered to a white A2 card base (4.25" x 5.5"). 


The Year Round Fun set is a big one and with so many adorable images. I had so much fun playing with it that I also created a set of tags. There's a new product with this release that makes tag making super easy. The Many Tabs Dies was just perfect for making these tags. There's several tab options and they can be used to transform just about anything into a tag. Today I used a simple rectangular diecut but it can also be used on circles or even shaped diecuts.

I stamped the images from the Year Round Fun Stamp set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Year Round Fun Dies to diecut them out. I colored them with Copic markers and highlighted them with a white gel pen.


COPIC COLORS:
Bears: E51/53/33, R000/00/20, R20, E25
Pink cupcake/candle/hat/tie: RV10/21/13/14
Champagne glass: B000, Y11/26
Green balloon/hat: YG06/07/09, W5/7, Y13
Rainbow: R24/29, YR04, Y13/15, YG07/09, B21/24


For the tag, I used one of the dies from the Stitched Rectangle Set 2 Dies to diecut 3 rectangles out of white cardstock. I used the same die to diecut 3 rectangles out of patterned paper from the new Colorful Ink Spots Vol. 2 Patterned Papers. Next, I used one of the dies from the new Many Tabs Dies to diecut a total of 6 tabs, 2 each out of pink, green and gray cardstock. I adhered the tabs to the rectangles and used a hole puncher to create the hole. 


For the sentiment, I stamped the "Happy Birthday", "Celebrate" and "Congratulations" sentiments from the Good Guys and Time to Celebrate stamp sets directly onto the tags with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. 


I used twine to tie the white and patterned paper tags to each other. 


My last three cards showcase the absolutely amazing new Horizontal Step Card Dies. This incredible die set can diecut a 3-dimensional card base in just one swoop! No guessing. No measuring. No adhering. It doesn't get easier than that! And if that's not enough, this die set also comes with several dies to decorate the four panels on the front of the card. It's your lucky day, there's more ... this awesome die set also comes with a beautiful Hello word die! The fun card created folds nicely to fit in a standard envelope for an A2-sized card (4.25" x 5.5"). It's a truly amazing set.

Sending Love & Hugs! For my second card, I paired the new Horizontal Step Card Dies with the adorable snowman from the previously released Flurry of Fun stamp and die set and a sentiment from the new On My Mind stamp set.


I stamped the snowman image from the Flurry of Fun Stamp set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating Flurry of Fun Dies to diecut it out. I colored it with Copic markers and highlighted it with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Snowman: B0000/000, Y38 YR04, R000/20, W7, E25
Scarf: R00/02/04/06


I used the new Horizontal Step Card Dies to diecut the cardbase and decorative panels out to pink and white cardstock. I used one of the decorative dies from the set to add the details to the white side panels. I folded on the scored lines and adhered the white panels with liquid glue.

For the sentiment, I used the die from the Horizontal Step Card Dies set to diecut the Hello word 3 times out of pink cardstock. I layered and adhered the diecuts with liquid glue. A white gel pen was used to add the highlights.

For the subsentiment, I stamped the "Sending Love & Hugs" sentiment from the new On My Mind Stamp set directly onto one of the front panel with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I added a couple of hearts diecut out of the die to add the details to the front panel.

I adhered the Hello and the snowman to the center panel with liquid glue. 


Warm Wishes! Have a Joyful Winter Season! My third card showcases the super cute new November Mouse set with the Horizontal Step Card Dies. I created a wintery scene using the snowflakes from the Winter Spotlight Sayings set.


I stamped the images from the November Mouse Stamp set onto a piece of Neenah Solar White 110 lb cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and used the coordinating November Mouse Dies to diecut them out. I colored them with Copic markers and highlighted them with a white gel pen.

COPIC COLORS:
Mice: E50/51/53/33, R000/20, R20
Teal: BG10/53/45
Pink: RV10/21/13/14
White: C00/1/3


The card was created in the same manner as the second card using the Horizontal Step Card Dies. This time I used light blue and white cardstock but I did not use the detail dies on the white panels. Instead I added snowflakes to the background. 

For the snowflakes, I stamped the snowflakes from the Winter Spotlight Sayings set with Versamark Watermark ink onto a piece of teal cardstock and heat embossed with Detail White Embossing Powder. I used the coordinating Winter Spotlight Sayings Dies to diecut them out. I adhered the snowflakes to the panel with liquid glue.

For the sentiment, I stamped the additional "have a joyful winter season" sentiment from the A Cool Friend Stamp set onto the white panel with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. 


My final card showcases all of the beautiful detail dies included in the absolutely amazing new Horizontal Step Card Dies


This dimensional card was created in the same manner as the previous two cards using the Horizontal Step Card Dies with pink and white cardstock. I diecut the white panels then ran the panels through the diecutting machine again with the detail dies. 


I love how versatile this die set is. The options for the decorations is endless. It can be used for just about any occasion. And it is such a super quick and easy way to add dimensions and the wow factor to a card.
