Hello friends! I am absolutely, positively, and COMPLETELY thrilled to celebrate with my friends, Cath Edvalson and Technique Tuesday on Cath's new collection of stamps and dies which debuted at TT earlier this month.
And what better way to celebrate??? A blog hop of course. After all, we're crafters, and when we aren't crafting - we're blog hopping! I am sweating and giggly, just being in the lineup with the amazing crafters participating in today's hop. You should have come here from the lovely and talented Melissa Phillips. I just know you're loving the inspiration, and I can't wait to check it all out myself! (If you're just starting here, or you get lost along the way, head to the Technique Tuesday blog for the whole list of participants!)
So, I have two projects to share with you today, using Cath's Heartfelt Thanks stamp set, Chain of Flowers die, and Garden Leaves die.
The Garden Leaves die is my favorite of this release (I think. . .it's so very hard to choose!) The leaves can be used by themselves, or with the shadow layer behind them. I had a ton of fun playing around with all the different options!
You can find all of Cath's products on the Technique Tuesday website, as well as at Simon Says Stamp and Ellen Hutson.
Blog hops also mean PRIZES! (Am I right!?) Comment along the hop for a chance to win! One person will win all 5 of Cath's new products, and two other lucky winners will receive $25 gift certificates to Technique Tuesday! Leave a comment on one blog, or all of them! More comments equal more chances to win! (Comments close at midnight PST on Sept. 16th, 2015. The three winners will be announced on the Technique Tuesday blog on Sept. 18th, 2015.)
And now, be on your merry, crafty way to Jaclyn Miller and enjoy the rest of the hop! Thanks for celebrating Cath Edvalson and her beautiful new collection with Technique Tuesday!
