Hot new must-haves!

Yes... really.  I have been playing and experimenting with my new Creative Basics dies and my new images from Angels Hearts and Memories.

Can you say LOOOOVE?!

I coloured up the images with no thought to what I was going to do with 'em next (some of you might have well-thought-out plans... me not so much lol).  Colour first... panic later when the deadline is upon you ;-).

No panic.  Pulled out my new toys and the cards basically made themselves.

So let's have a quick look at what I've used -

Firstly, all the cardstock (save for the Copic Xpress-it) is Stampin' Up; the papers are from my neverending stash (if you're in the neighbourhood... come help me use up more of it lol); dewdrops and ribbon from my stash.

Creative Basics dies - Fancy Squares & Little Things*; Basic Stitched Flags; Picnic Quilt EF (comes with TWO EF!  Beautiful deep embossing with no paper tearing!)
*I used the half die to make the larger matte, a little tricky but very doable and makes this die set so much more versatile
