Joy Clair New Release Blog Hop Day 1

Hi there friends and fellow crafters... LeeAnn here with my Day 1 post for the New Release Blog Hop with Joy Clair Designs. New with Joy Clair is the fun prospect of purchasing the stamps as Clear or Digital (I personally love digital as they can be resized to your preference as well as they are immediately available for download).

The first set I am sharing with you today is entitled Go There!!!

This cute cow makes me so happy, and she is ready to have a Splediforous day. 

I used pattern paper from the Doodlebug "Down On The Farm" paper pack to pack up my image. I used MFT Stitched dies from Blueprints 33 to cut my panel for Missy Moo and the Gingham panel. I used a stitched rectangle die to cut the sentiment. 

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

My second card is from the new set entitled My Heart.

 I love making shaker cards, so this seemed to be the perfect set to do so with. I used my brother scan n cut to cut out the heart image from my card panel. I then took my base and the Fade Away Stencil along with some Distress Oxide inks in Picked Raspberry, Dried Marigold and Squeezed Lemonade to make my card front. 

I colored the heart using alcohol markers. I cut 2 panels of acetate to fit over the heart cut out to create the shaker element. I used score tape to adhere the first panel to my card front, then I surrounded the heart using double side foam tape. I added the seed beads to the inside, removed the backing on the foam tape and added another layer of acetate. This was then added to my card base with the colored heart showing through the shaker element. This I have found is the easiest way to make a shaker and have everything line up without loosing the shaker bits.
