Today features some awesome new stamps and Die-namics for candy lovers ... or for any sweet person on your cardmaking or gift-giving list! (All bold products are linked below in the supply section):
Squeeeaaalll . . . How adorable are these peeps?!!! I knew I had to use them on cards for my girls the minute I saw them, as they LOVE Easter bunny peeps! This sweet little bunny is included in the Candy Jars Die-namics set. I die cut it from Cotton Candy, Blu Raspberry, and Wild Wisteria cardstock, then adhered them inside their Banana Split peep box die cut with the fabulous new Stitched Rectangle Frames.
To create the popped-up sentiment piece, I silver heat embossed the pretty sentiment from the Candy Jar Companions stamp set onto Sno Cone cardstock die cut with the awesome new Free with $60-Stitched Speech Bubble Edges Die-namics (LOVE!):
To finish the card, I die cut Grassy Edges from Limelight and Sour Apple cardstock, adhered them together, then die cut a stitched line (from Blueprints 13) along the bottom, to match with the Stitched Speech Bubble.
My next card is perfect for Valentine's Day or an anniversary, and uses more of the same Candy Jars Die-namics and coordinating Candy Jar Companions stamp set. You'll be amazed at all of the different looks you can create with this dynamic duo!
I also used the Stitched Rectangle Frames again, this time die cut from Electric Red cardstock and used to frame the candy jar I made. The Candy Jars Die-namics mints were die cut from Smooth White cardstock and stamped with the swirl mint stamp from the Candy Jar Companions stamp set in Electric Red Premium Dye ink.
The jar and lid were die cut from silver metallic cardstock and the jar cut again from Vellum. The mints were adhered onto the silver metallic jar, then the Vellum adhered on top of the mints, by using a dot of Copic X-Press It Glue Marker in the center of each of the mints -- it's hardly noticeable! The cute little tag was stamped with one of the coordinating tiny sentiments that fit on it, and tied around the jar lid with silver thread:
Inside, I stamped some hearts and adorable sentiment from the Candy Jar Companions stamp set in Electric Red Premium Dye ink, framed it with another Electric Red Stitched Rectangle Frame and more die cut and stamped mints:

Hi, Pam! Sorry I left that out of my post -- I've amended it now, with this info:
The vellum is adhered using a dot of Copic X-Press It Glue Marker in the center of each of the mints -- it's hardly noticeable! I hope that helps!

I love both cards, the embossing with the vellum on top and the bunnies "listening to their teacher"
