Avery Elle and CardMaker Magazine Blog Hop and Giveaway!!!!




Hello, and hoorayyyyyy it's a blog hop day!!!!!  I'm so excited to be here with you today, and getting to share some cards I've made with some of the newest products too!  I was lucky to receive the Geek Love Stamp Set and Co-ordinating die set from Jamie at Avery Elle, and I was just tickled pink when I finally saw them in person.  They are seriously the cutest!  Take a peek at what I've created with them....



Isn't she just so fun, and so adorkable?!  I LOVE it!!!  What I really love is how different you can make her look with all of the fun mix and match images that are found in this set.  There is also a very handsome lad in this stamp set too, for those of you who might be in need of some masculine dorkiness, hehehe!

Now for my second card I played more with the co-ordinating die set, and had just has much fun!  From cute and fun to more elegant these dies are so versatile... take a peek...



To create the ombre heart I die cut the heart die three times in three colors all in the same family of pink.  Then while holding all three together at one time I eyeballed it and cut the heart into thirds.  Finally I arranged the cuts from lightest to darkest before gluing them inside the negative heart space.  I really love that there is stitching left around the negative cut too!


Well that is all I have for you today, but there is lots more inspiration to be had from the amazingly talented Melania's blog as well as the other hop participants.  And of course no hop is complete without a giveaway, so if you hop along you will be in the running for a $30 gc to Avery Elle... woo hoo!!!!  Make sure you go to their Blog post for full details on how to get entered.
With that being said I would like to end this post with a HUGE thank you to Jamie from Avery Elle for the stamp and die set I was provided with for this hop. I LOVE them!!!!  Seriously!  A thank you to everyone who is in the hop and always providing such amazing inspiration.  And finally a thank you to YOU for taking the time to stop by, visit, leave a little love and all of the support you continue to show.
Happy Crafting/Hopping!
