Let's see what we have for you today ;)

Anja created to amazing cards:

On the first card she designed a fantastic, colorful background using the big hearts Polka stencil, added Lovely Tags in XS and M, stamped sentiments from the Sentiments XS Mini set (onto a Tag from the Lovely Tags X set!) and added clear jellyfish from the Glowing seaside set. Stamping the Jellyfish on Vellum is so so clever and turned out great! That bit of shimmer adds a little extra detail:

On her second card she used masking to stack the barrels für our little Koala-pirate - how cute is this scene?? The Tiny Stars are also Created with the Lovely Tags dies :)

Next up is Marina:

She also used the Big hearts Polka die to create a bright and cheerful watercolor card - this stencil can be used in so many ways!

I have six cards for you today:

On the first one I used the new Clustered Leaves Cling stamp to create a subtile background for my coffee mug. The sentiment in stamped with out Crystal letters stamp set:

On my second card I used the Color your Polka Cling fpr the background, the lighthouse from Glowing seaside as my focal point and the Sentiments XS Mini set for my sentiment, so many details, yet a clean and simple card :)

On of the products I enjoy most is the large Mandala Cling stamp I tried many techniques, colors and layouts and they all look great. this is one example, colored with Dylusions ink sprays used as watercolor:

I am waiting for out gift cards to arrive (probably tomorrow), to show off the pocket tag in use. But I'd like to show you that the accessories from that die set make great focal points on cards as well!

Now for the treasure chest! I thought the treasure chest would be such a great die to go with the All Hands on Deck set - here's one example using both products on one card. I also used the double stitched rectangles to create a frame around my scene:

I already shared my last card - using glowing seaside - on instagram and facebook, but it was so popular that I thought I would share over here as well: I did lots of inkblending to create that glow and used some sunshine alphabet stickers for my custom sentiment - I think this card would be great for the man in your life :)
