WaffleFlower March Release Blog Hop (+GIVEAWAYS!)

5 Mar

Good morning!  I’m excited to be a stop on the blog hop celebrating the March release from WaffleFlower! There are tons of great products for all crafty types in the release but I am most excited about the adorable dog-themed products and that’s what I focused on for my cards today!

To start off I used the new layering Paw Print stencil duo to ink blend these cool colors onto a panel of white cardstock!  I used Salvaged Patina, Tumbled Glass, and Shaded Lilac for the full paw and Peacock Feathers, Salty Ocean, and Wilted Violet for the accent shadow.  Then I spritzed the panel with iridescent shimmer spray and set it aside to dry.

I die-cut the Over-sized Friend from black glitter and white cardstock and layered it together.  I added a dog from Best Friend dies die cut from black cardstock and a subsentiment strip from the March Sneak Peek kit to finish the card!

For my second card I used the stencil to dry emboss the full pawprint onto a panel of kraft cardstock for subtle texture and dimension.  Then I placed the accent stencil over the embossed design and blended a little contour ink onto the panel for a tone on tone look.  It’s subtle but creates a really neat effect!

I die-cut the Bone and Bow dies from white cardstock and colored them with copic markers to add shading and depth.  I adhered them together with foam tape for dimension and finished the card with a sentiment from Pawfect Sentiments (which is a must-have for pet lovers!!)!

And last but not least, the cards no one likes to make but the ones that are really good to have on hand.  I die-cut the Window trio die from white cardstock to create an interesting stitched focal point.  Then I blended Salvaged Patina, Peacock Feathers, and Uncharted Mariner distress oxide ink onto a panel of white cardstock.  I sprayed it with shimmer spray and water and let it dry.  Then I adhered it behind the window.

I stamped the heart pawprint from Pawfect Sentiments onto the blended panel and a sentiment onto the white cardstock and heat-embossed them with gold glitter embossing powder.  Finally I finished the card by die-cutting the Over-sized Friend from gold glitter cardstock.

And that’s it for me!  Be sure to check out the fantastic new release from WaffleFlower and I’d love to know what’s on your wishlist! And don’t forget, from now till March 8th, 2023, all orders placed at WaffleFlower will receive a mysterious gift (No code required!).

    I absolutely love the dog stamps, dies, stencils etc. I have a dog and several friends have dogs so they would be perfect for birthdays etc. I love the way you colored the paw print stencil!

    Amazing cards. I think the second one is my favorite. I like the way you dry embossed the stencil then only used the accent stencil to add color. I also really like that bone and ribbon. So cute.
