My first card for today features (one of) the newest additions to the Shortbread Shapes Collection. For this card I used the Shortbread Shapes Scalloped Hearts! OHHHHH these are gorgeous! And the matching Embossing Folder??? LOVE! My card also features the new Simple Valentine Sentiments…and the beautiful previously released Nordic Hearts! I used a pretty color palette of kraft, cream and bright vivid pink! Perfect for a valentine! This card is an A7 size – 5×7.

I used woodgrain paper for the background embossing and then gently inked over the embossed parts with a small sponge dauber and white pigment ink. Just makes the raised parts pop!! On the cream embossed portion I used Antique Linen Distress Ink to add a bit of color. I also splattered on white paint and added bits and bobs of chunky glitter. It’s soooo romantical!!

Here’s a close up of those delicious layers…All those textures and features. I am kinda obsessed. Just sayin.

So I had to make at least one non-valentine!! Hee hee. To show you how versatile everything is. Spring is coming fast so I decided to make a pretty, fresh tulip card! This card features another one of the new Shortbread Shapes. This one is called Shortbread Shapes Rectangle Hearts. My finished card is an A2 kraft card base. I layered that pretty Shortbread background and then added tulips and a bow. The sentiment is from the brand new Simple Valentine Sentiments…but I feel like this might be a nice get well card, or just because card…

Here’s a close up of everything… I heat embossed the sentiment in gold embossing powder for an elegant touch. I gently inked the top part of the cream panel using yellow ink and a blending brush. It’s very subtle, but picks up just a bit of color.

I made that pretty Recency Bow out of gingham paper and shaded it just a bit with a yellow Copic Marker. A golden gem in the center!

And my last card for the new release! I went kind of rogue for me! A big bold graphic color palette! Red, cream, black and silver! Usually I love gold, but I switched it up here! This card features the brand new Small Capsule Fixed Borders dies (the black part), and the new Sweetest Frames Capsule Edition…of course along with other beautiful Capsule Collection elements too! I used the hearts from the Shortbread Shapes dies. They are perfection! This finished card is an A2 cream card base, then allllll the layers!

I used the Rosemal Reflections embossing folder and inked it with black!! Looks really cool. I splattered silver ink all over everything… In this photo you can see the beautiful details of the new stamp set. I embossed with silver embossing powder onto black. The new dies cut out the border perfectly! (Genius)….

a bit of vellum to layer, and then my sentiment is stamped into a circle panel. A tiny bow and of course one more heart complete the look!

    How on earth can there be 52 comments before mine and I’m the first “like”??? For real? Well, the honor is mine! I’m happy to accept it!! Wanda, I just KNEW that first card was yours, the one w/ the Shortbread design! It’s so pretty and I just felt like it had to have come from your atelier when I saw it. And I was right! The second card really speaks to me since I love tulips. It’s great to see earlier products and current products used together seamlessly. And the last card w/ the bold red, black and vellum? Well, that is, of course, also a TOTAL “10”!
