In the spotlight today is Sentimental Wishes. It's a set of 22 clear stamps sized at about 1" to fit your small punches and dies. Tons of occasions are covered, from thinking of you, to sympathy, to birthday, to friendship, thanks and even a coffee break, there's a little saying for just about anything in this set. Pair it with the square or circle in the Lacey Frames die set, which frame the sentiments beautifully, to add an elegant touch to your projects.
For my card, I pulled out some new papers I picked up at the craft store the other day. The spring flowers and sweet little rain boots were calling my name! I embossed the praying for you sentiment from Sentimental Wishes onto a circle cut with the Lacey Frames die set. I fussy cut a flower duo from the paper I chose and popped it up on the edge. Next I cut the rain boots paper with the Flourished Tag die and cut another tag from white to give it a bit of a bottom mat. I distressed the edges a bit and then added a seam binding bow.
One look I love with the new dies, is to layer the Lacey Trim Duo borders together. Here I cut them from white, then layered together and attached a piece of the patterned paper for a background accent. A little chicken wire dry embossing on a white panel adds some country charm and a bit of texture to finish things off.
