C9 Guest Design - Briar Blooms

 The final day of my Concord and 9th guest design share is here! I've had so much fun working with this month's release and am sad it's over! Today I'm showcasing the stunning Briar Blooms Bundle...


The flower dies in Briar Blooms are just stunning and can be used in so many different designs. My first card pieces the flowers around the sweet banner die. The "have a beautiful day" sentiment is stamped in the gorgeous Rainforest Ink (my personal favorite color!).


Both cards today have a background panel embossed with the Wood Slat embossing folder. This folder is a perfect match with the Briar Blooms!


The wreath die is included in the set, and makes it very easy to piece your die cut flowers on top. 

Both of my cards use the same color combo of cardstocks, just mixed in different ways. I love how different they look even with the same palette. Cardstocks used are: Cayenne, Espresso, Rainforest, Creamsicle, Sea Glass, and Pimento.

C9 Guest Design - Lotsa Pasta

 Today is a fun release from Concord and 9th called Lotsa Pasta. If you love a good Turnabout Stamp, this bundle is for you!


The Lotsa Pasta Turnabout Stamp has such fun pasta designs mixed throughout the stamp. The inks I used for the turnabout portion are: Wheat, Cayenne, Sunflower, and Clementine. I then cut the finished stamped panel diagonally and added it to Cayenne Cardstock.


The Lotsa Pasta Die Set is fiiillllleed with fun shapes! Every pasta imaginable! I cut some simple bow tie pastas to sprinkle throughout the card. Then finished it off the sentiment stamped in Cayenne Ink on Sand cardstock.


I just love the forks! I cut the forks from Matte Silver cardstock and wrapped them in some tomato covered spaghetti :)

C9 Guest Design - Simple Stems

 Time for another C9 March release card! Today I'm sharing a card using the simply lovely Simple Stems bundle.


This Simple Stems set is perfect for those quick but impactful cards, and the sentiments are great pick-me-up messages. You can leave the stamp unpierced if stitching isn't your thing. I did simple cardstock matting with Ballet Slipper and Sunflower.


I stamped the bottle and sentiment in Black Ink, the stems in Evergreen Ink, and the petals in Sunflower Ink. I did run the matching piercing die through my die cutting machine, and did some simple stitches with Wildberry thread.

Such a simple and quick card. The set is darling!
