Balloon Animals

Hey all! I'm over on the Avery Elle blog today but I'm also popping in here to share a card using the super cute new Avery Elle Balloon Giraffe stamp and die set.  

To create this card, I used the Pierced Rectangles to pierce a border and then stamped and die cut balloons from the Balloons stamp and dies set and Party Bunny.  Once positioned, I marked where they'd all go and then I removed them temporarily so I could stamp the strings.  Then, I adhered the balloons with dimensional adhesive and added a die cut bow from Bunting dies.  Finally I heat embossed a sentiment on the banner that's in Wonky Stitches.  

Thanks for stopping by and sharing part of your day with me!  Have a great one!

Swim Team

Hello lovelies!  Hopefully you're having a wonderful day - I'm so glad you're here! 

Today, I'm sharing a project which you can also find on the Avery Elle blog using the new Swim Team stamp set.  I love love love this set so much.  I mean how cute are these little fish?!?!  

First I cut a heart in a white panel using the new Geek Love die set.  Then behind the heart I used the Swim Team dies and stamped and paper pieced the swim team fish.  

Thanks so much for stopping by today!  Have a great day!
