Hi-ya!
So it's reveal day at Studio Calico and all of the February kits are now available for purchase! Today, I've got gobs of cards to share with you, all using the February Daydream Believer kits! Besides the main Daydream Believer kit, I also got add-ons #2 and #4 -- Lady Lane and Stepping Stone. I had so much fun with these......Let's get right to the projects, shall we?
This first card is from the main kit only -- Daydream Believer. I also added a bit of Mister Huey's calico shine on the little banner....it's hard to see the shimmer on the cream muslin in the photo, but in real life, it adds just the right amount of soft shimmer.
Next up....this one's all Daydream Believer again, with the addition of a brad from the Lady Lane add-on.
I used Papertrey's mat stack 4 die to die cut the black woodgrain paper and then layered elements from teh kit on top.
Papertrey's heart border die was used on the patterned paper along the bottom of the card. The pocket was created using a bag that came in the kit. It was longer than I needed it to be for a card, so I trimmed off the bottom inch and a half or so and then stitched along the bottom, giving me a new, shorter pocket.
Inside the pocket is a bit of card stock where I can jot an extra little note to the recipient. I topped it with a die cut (journal tabs die) and a Dear Lizzy brad (love that thing!).
Here's another Daydream Believer card for you.......added a bit of Mister Huey's spray in Cameo on this one.
I used a Love Lives Here die to cut out the little scalloped circle behind the butterfly and the stamped frame was created by stamping a smaller frame (from Daydream Believer) twice, allowing the two frames to overlap on one edge, creating a larger frame. The overlap is hidden by the butterfly!
For some reason, this next one reminds me of a skirt Tinkerbell might wear! Haha. This card is another featuring all Daydream Believer kit items. The frame was die cut using the Simply Jane die.
I used some of the mistable trim from the kit -- it comes in 3 sizes, so I figured, why not use 'em all?! Ha. The top layer is spritzed with Mister Huey's in Cameo, the two middle layers with Overdue and the bottom two with Plum Thumb. The mistables take the spray mist sooo well and dry really quickly. This was very fun to put together!
Ahhh.....now this one makes me smile. The floral background paper is from Stepping Stone add-on #4 and everything else is from the Lady Lane add-on. Those Dear Lizzy brads are soooo cute, aren't they?
I used the Happy Day die on the ledger paper and the doily was hand cut from patterned paper.
This one's all from the Lady Lane add-on #2.....how about that fun My Mind's Eye garland? Fun, right?
And need I mention, yet again, the adorable Dear Lizzy brad? Ha.
This card comes mostly from the Stepping Stone add-on #4 with a couple of bits from the main kit added in. The colors in this particular add-on were soooo fun to work with, but then again, you know me and bright pink and turquoise. :)
I used one of my doily details dies to die cut the gray/white paper, and my signature series: butterfly die on the floral paper. I also spritzed on some calico shine for kicks.
Mmm.....more fun colors here. Another from Stepping Stone......Love the October Afternoon journaling cards in this kit. The "FRIEND" was stamped with stamps from the kit.
The flower was created using my Friendly Flower die as well as the Sending You leaf die. I stitched the flower layers together with some baker's twine and a button from the kit.
One more before I go....this one from Stepping Stone as well. I just added some kraft card stock to this one. Another fun journaling card here. The flowers were hand cut from a patterned paper from the kit. A few rhinestones were the perfect finishing touch.
All righty then, that's it for me today. I hope you've enjoyed your time with me. Do you have a favorite card from today's line-up? I'd love to hear from you!
Hope you have a wonderful day!
