May Jaded Blossom Sneaks Day 3

 


Hi friends! Welcome to Day 3 of the Jaded Blossom May Release! This one  takes our cast of gnomes under the sea where life is much wetter! We're sneaking peeks at all the new goodies each day leading up to release day on Thursday, May 16. Today we're sharing our makes with the NEW Embellishment Clusters Die and the Mermaid Silhouette Stencil Freebie.



For my card today, I chose to combine the new Fancy Shell Die with the Embellishment Clusters Die. I die cut the shell pieces from pearlized pink and shimmer white cardstock, then assembled, adding some liquid pearls to the pearl piece. The "dirt" is watercolor paper I sprayed with scorched timber and vintage phot distress sprays as well as some metallic mica spray. The lighter brown is sponged with antique photo and scorched timber inks then splattered with white paint.  I embossed the sentiment from Make a Splash Gnomie onto this panel.

To accent the shell and add a little interest I added diamonds and hearts from the Embellishment Clusters Die. I love how there are three sizes of each shape. They're perfect little accents.

May Jaded Blossom Sneaks Day 2

 


Hi friends! Welcome to Day 2 of the Jaded Blossom May Release! This one  takes our cast of gnomes under the sea where life is much wetter! We're sneaking peeks at all the new goodies each day leading up to release day on Thursday, May 16. Today we're sharing our makes with the NEW Fancy Shell Die, Mermaid to Be Friends, Mermaid To Be Friends Outline Dies, and Seaweed Stencil.

I love to color, so couldn't wait to pull out my Copics to color up this sweet mermaid image from Mermaid to Be Friends. I die cut her with the coordinating dies, then added a bit of glitter to the seashell in her hair.


To give her a little scene, I smooshed some greens onto a piece of watercolor paper, then used the Seaweed Stencil as a backdrop over the smooshing.  I cut this with a stitched rectangle, and matted with another stitched rectangle. For accent, I added a few clear enamel dots around the panel for the feeling of bubbles.  The sentiment is from Mermaid to Be Friends and cut with the coordinating outline dies.

I started  with watercolor paper die cut with a stitched Rectangle 1 Die. I smooshed and splashed with mermaid lagoon, broken china, and salvaged patina distress inks.  Next I started to add some teal texture paste with the Bubbles Stencil. I realized a little late that I didn't use pixie spray to secure my stencil, so I had a bit of bleed through.  No worries, I just used a baby wipe to wipe off most of it. Once things were dry, I offset the stencil and added some white texture paste. I love the texture it created.

I gave her a little ground and some sea plants using die cuts to complete the scene. I finished off with a sentiment from the Make a Splash Gnomie set, embossed in white onto colored cardstock, then cut with the coordinating outline dies. I finished off with a soft blue card base that I dry embossed with a bubble like embossing folder.

Jaded Blossom April Sneaks Day 3


Hi friends! Welcome to day 3 of sneak peeks for the April Jaded Blossom release! We're sneaking peeks at all the new goodies each day leading up to release day on Thursday, April 11 (that's tomorrow). Today we're sharing our makes with the NEW Tool Stencil and the Fixing Everything Tag Freebie. It's free with the Gotta Have it Now package or with a $50 purchase that includes at least one new release item Thursday and Friday, while supplies last.

I started by stamping out the tag from the Fixing Everything Tag stamp in blue inks and embossing with clear embossing powder.  I then stamped the hammer and three nails in memento ink and colored with Copic markers.  I fussy cut both the hammer and the individual nails and pieced the hammer onto the image. To make a perfectly coordinated mat, I inked some of the same blue inks on white cardstock for a mat.


For the background I did a little smooshing with the leftover ink from color coordinating the mat. Once it was dry I pulled out the Tool Stencil. Tip: do the layer without the little holes for the saw first. I started with the other one using aged silver embellishment mousse. When it was dry I went back in with the second layer of stencil intending to use some brown solar paste for that layer, but I realized those little holes would be covered up by the paste. So instead I ink blended scorched timber distress ink on the stencil, then went back over the holes with a black glaze pen to make them pop.

The Dad wording is cut from white cardstock using the Alphabet Dies 2. I blended with blue inks to coordinate, then added to a die cut from the Mini Tags 2 Dies. I used a pencil to trace around the die and fussy cut a mat in gray cardstock, then layered everything together, adding the nails above the Dad.

April Jaded Blossom Sneaks Day 2




Hi friends! Welcome to day 2 of sneak peeks for the April Jaded Blossom release! This one brings some fun motorcycle and construction option for our gnomies! We're sneaking peeks at all the new goodies each day leading up to release day on Thursday, April 11. Today we're sharing our makes with the NEW Gnome Dies: Construction Add Ons, Nailed It, and Nailed It Outline Dies.

Growing up, my Dad often said that nothing was broken unless it couldn't be fixed with duct tape and bailing twine. So when I saw the duct tape sentiment in the Nailed It stamp set, I knew I had to make a card with it. And since my Dad was a farmer, I went with a hat from the formerly released Gnome Dies: Fishing Add Ons that looked similar to the straw hat he often wore. He often wore yellow insulated overalls when working on farm equipment, so that influenced my color choices.


I cut the gnome pieces from colored cardstock and patterned paper, adding some distress ink blending, as well as some Copic marker accents where needed.  I used a glaze pen to make some hash markings on the duct tape to give it that textured look the real stuff has.

I used a Stitched Square Die cut skewed on the card base for the layout, matting with a thin brown mat.  The background is a basket weave 3d embossing folder that I swiped some gathered twigs distress ink over.  I added a border from the Border Dies set for the duct tape behind my sentiment, then finished off by cutting the Nailed It sentiment with the coordinating Nailed It Outline Dies.

My gnomie and his bike are all cut with patterned paper and colored cardstock, then shaded with distress inks.



For the background, I started with black cardstock, then used the Diamond Plate Stencil with some silver gilding polish.  The sentiment is from the Born to Ride set, and I embossed it in silver on black, then cut with the coordinating dies.  I added a little red banner behind using a die cut from the Mini Tag Dies 2 set

Have a Ball Jaded Blossom Sneaks Day 2


Hi friends! It's Day 2 of sneak peeks for a fabulous new release from Jaded Blossom! This release brings some seriously fun competition for our gnomies, with all sorts of sports related goodness! Yay! We're sneaking peeks at all the new goodies each day leading up to release day on Wednesday, March 6. Today we're sharing our makes with the NEW Gnome Dies: Sports Add Ons 2, Have a Ball Gnomie, Have a Ball Gnomie Outline Dies, and the freebie with purchase, Go Team Stencil.

I was super excited to see the shorts and tennis shoes in the Gnome Dies: Sports Add Ons 2, so decided to outfit the Girl Gnome in some basketball attire. I did her jersey in red and white, my hometown's school colors, then added a number to her jersey with the Build a Booth: Alphabet Add Ons. I had her holding the ball with just one arm, then added some hair from the Gnome Dies: Hair Add Ons.



For the background I used the Go Team Stencil layers in red and orange, then added a vellum overlay so my b-ball gnomie would stand out against the background. I finished with a sentiment from the Have a Ball Gnomie set, embossed in white on red cardstock and then cut with the coordinating Have a Ball Gnomie Outline Dies.

March Jaded Blossom Release Peeks Day 1

Hi friends! It's time for a fabulous new release from Jaded Blossom! This one brings some seriously fun competition for our gnomies, with all sorts of sports related goodness! Yay! We're sneaking peeks at all the new goodies each day leading up to release day on Wednesday, March 6. Today we're sharing our makes with the NEW Gnome Dies: Sports Add Ons 1, Root for the Gnome Team, Root for the Gnome Team Outline Dies, and the Game Day Stencil

I was so excited to see a tennis racket in this die set. I played tennis for my high school and college teams and my twins are both very into tennis. Their birthday is coming up this weekend, so it was the perfect time to create a birthday card.



Most of the pieces for my gnome and racket were cut from white cardstock and then sponged with dye inks. The boys got some fancy new rackets at the pro shop last fall, and one of theirs is blue and green, so I went with that for the racket and his gnome hat. For the face of the racket, I just used a clear stardust gel pen to trace over the strings. 

I drew a little tennis court with a white gel pen on some cajun craze cardstock, then used a scrap of doodlebug graph paper as a net.  I finished with some cute sunnies for my gnomie with the Glasses Die set.  The sentiment is from the new Root for the Gnome Team (love that name!) set, and cut with the coordinating Root for the Gnome Team Outline Dies.

Hi friends! It's Day 3 of sneak peeks for the February Jaded Blossom release! I hope you've been enjoying all the inspiration so far. We're sneaking peeks at all the new goodies each day leading up to release day tomorrow (Feb 8). Today we're sharing our makes with the NEW Wheelbarrow Dies: Easter Add OnLove Bunny Stencil and the Some Bunny Tag freebie with purchase. 


For today's card, I started with the carrot patch from the Wheelbarrow Dies: Easter Add Ons. I colored with Copic markers, then assembled together.  The main Wheelbarrow Die is cut from tidepool cardstock and inked with evergreen bough distress ink.  I embossed the sentiment from Bunny Trail onto this piece, then assembled the rest of the wheelbarrow parts.


For the background I stenciled the bunny layer of the new Love Bunny Stencil in lost shadow ink, then the heart layer with tumbled glass distress ink. This panel is cut with the Card Mat Dies.

I finished off with the sweet little bunny from the Bicycle & Friends Die set. He's cut with sno cone and desert storm cardstock, then inked with brushed corduroy and tumbled glass.

Feb JB Sneak Peeks Day 2

Hi friends! It's Day 2 of sneak peeks for the February Jaded Blossom release! This one brings us some seriously cute critters and Easter goodies! Yay! We're sneaking peeks at all the new goodies each day leading up to release day on Thursday, Feb 8. Today we're sharing our makes with the NEW Bicycle and Friends Die, Beautiful Ride stamp set, and Beautiful Ride Outline Dies. There are also a couple additions to the MDF line that are not included in the release package, but are available for purchase.

I was super excited to see the cute little critters in the new Bicycle and Friends Die set. I love that they're the perfect size to be little companions for the gnomes! Being a cat person, I had to assemble the kitty in the bicycle basket first! I cut all the pieces for my gnome, the bike and the kitty and basket from white cardstock and then colored with Copic markers. To have my gnome pedaling, I used the boots and legs from the Gnome Dies: Christmas Add Ons 1 set and the hat from the Gnome Dies: BBQ Add ons. I love the little stripe detail on that hat.


For the card background, I blended a background with salvaged patina, tumbled glass, squeezed lemonade, and twisted citron distress inks.  I then used the Cloud Stencil with white pigment ink to add a few clouds in the sky. The panel is cut with the Card Mat Dies.

I finished off with a sentiment from the new Beautiful Ride stamp set, cut with the coordinating Beautiful Ride Outline Dies.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! See you back for another sneak peek tomorrow!

Feb JB Sneak Peeks Day 1


Hi friends! It's time for a fabulous new release from Jaded Blossom! This one brings us some seriously cute critters and Easter goodies! Yay! We're sneaking peeks at all the new goodies each day leading up to release day on Thursday, Feb 8. Today we're sharing our makes with the NEW Gnome Friends: Bunny Die, Bunny Trail,stamp set, and Bunny Faces Stencil. There are also a couple additions to the MDF line that are not included in the release package, but are available for purchase.

 

Since both of my boys wear glasses, I decided to add a pair of shades to this cool bunny using the previously released Glasses Dies. To go alongside the bunny stand, I made a Gable Box to hold some extra dark chocolate Lindt truffles. Trevor has always been interested in nutrition facts and has called these chocolate fat balls since he was pretty small. Haha! 


I decorated the front of the box with dies from the Gnome Dies: Easter Add Ons, then used a Mini Tag Dies 2 die cut for the sentiment from the new Bunny Trail stamp set. I finished off by adding his name using the Build a Booth: Alphabet Dies.

That's all for today. If you're anxious to get your hands on these products, be sure to check out the release package info below.

Jaded Blossom January Sneak Peeks Day 2

Hi friends! It's time for a fabulous new release from Jaded Blossom! This one has us cruising along with some super fun add ons and a new car dies series! Yay! We'll be sneaking peeks at all the new goodies leading up to release day on Thursday, Jan 11. Today we're getting our sweet tooth on and sharing our makes with the NEW Gnome Dies: Breakfast Add Ons, Build a Booth: Breakfast Add Ons, and Donuts for Sale.


My husband have a running joke that the minute someone says the word donut, it's now out there in the universe, and he must procure some donuts for us. Haha! So there was definitely a donut party last weekend when I was creating! We have the most wonderful local donut truck on our end of town, Manna's Donuts, and they are delicious. I can imagine them putting a banner like this out below their window.

I built my booth from white cardstock, then started building my banner using the Build a Booth Breakfast Add ons. I used the P13 skin tones paper pad for the donut bases and the chocolate and maple frosting, adding a bit of shading with rusty hinge for the maple, and brushed corduroy for the donut bases. I did the frosting for the sprinkled donuts with sno cone cardstock, then added the "chips" and then pulled the sprinkle from the Gnome Dies: Breakfast Add ons. Next I created the pastry case, using shiny gold cardstock, gumball green, and some vellum. I embellished the case with a gold puffy heart.

The sign from the Donuts for Sale set is embossed onto green gumball, and I added a gold heart sticker between the top two words.  I really wanted to use the Donut Worry Be Happy sentiment, so pulled out the Gnome Dies: Sign Add Ons to add that.

The background of the card is sno cone cardstock cut with the Card Mat Dies and I stenciled it with the Moroccan Stencil with tumbled glass distress ink.

Thanks so much for stopping by today! See you back here tomorrow!
