Hop on over to see how I created this card!!

Day 7 of the March CAS-ual Fridays Release-Tin Roof Cover Fri-die

Happy Saturday!! Today is the FINAL day of the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps release!!! I hope you have had fun this week with all the sneak peeks on my blog. Today I am giving you a sneak peek of the new Tin Roof Cover Fri-die.

I have to admit that this is my FAVORITE card that I made for the whole release. I used the new Tin Roof Cover Fri-die, as well as a sentiment from Casual Comfort stamp to create this card.

To begin, I die cut the Tin Roof twice from turquoise cardstock and then adhered them together. Next I adhered the layered panel on the front of a matching A2 card front.

I added two patterned paper scraps on the front and used foam adhesive to add a sentiment strip.

My last step was to use some Nuvo drops in the center of each flower. This card was the EASIEST to make of all of my cards and I like it the most.

The Tin Roof Cover Fri-die is available NOW, along with all the new release products, in the CAS-ual Fridays Stamp Store in the NEW section. Use my code NORASENTME to get 15% off your total order!!

Day 6 of the March CAS-ual Fridays Release-Just Breathe

Happy Friday everyone!! Today is day six of the March CAS-ual Fridays Stamps release.

I created a card using the new Just Breathe Fri-dies.

I combined these new sentiment dies with the Casual Trees Fri-dies and some of the negatives of a new die that will be introduced tomorrow.

I started off this card by blending Distress Ink on a die cut piece of white cardstock. I then flicked mist in silver, blue and white over the front of the card.

When the mist dried, I adhered the panel to a white, A2 card front. I added the blue die cuts and the die cut tree next.

I then added the sentiment that I had die cut out of silver cardstock. The last step was to adhere the sequins with a touch of Diamond Stickles over them.

This sentiment, along with the full release, is available NOW in the CAS-ual Fridays Stamp Store in the NEW section. Use my code NORASENTME to get an extra 15% off your total order.

Day 5 of the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps March Release

Hello everyone!! I am here again with a sneak peek from the new CAS-ual Fridays Stamps release.

Today I am showcasing the new Noteworthy Fri-dies. You can use these dies as borders or making notepaper for your cards.

For my first card, I created a border with the die.

In addition to the new die, I used the Starlequin Stencil introduced on Monday and a sentiment from the Whole Shebang stamp set.

I added some silver stars that I die cut using the Fun-Fetti Fri-dies over the top of some of the border stars to make the card more festive. I tried to give it a masculine flair because I have a ton of birthdays coming up in my family.

My next card I used the Noteworthy Fri-dies to make a little notepaper piece for a pet sympathy card.

I created the background using Distress Oxide inks and a stamp that comes with the new Huggable Critters Fri-dies. The footprints are also from that set.

I added little Fun-Fetti hearts and a sentiment from CAS-ual Comfort.

This card was so fun to make and I plan to make a few more to have on hand for occasions such as this.

Below is a sneak peek at the borders:

Day 4 of the March CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Release

Hello everyone!! I hope you are all having as much fun as I am seeing all the fun, new products from the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps March release.

Today I am showcasing new Trellis Cover Fri-die with a shaker card. I also used the die set introduced yesterday, Sweet Friend,  and the stamp set Pretty Posies to complete the sentiment.

I have to admit that I am the WORST at making shaker cards but was determined to make this work. I am not going to go through the directions for how I created this because I know there are plenty of people out there that are better at it than me.

I will say that I added a frame around the edges to cover up a bit of a mess I made when adhering the shaker to the white, A2 card front.

The "friend" was die cut from shiny, rose gold cardstock using the Sweet Friend Fri-die. The "thinking of you" was embossed using a rose gold glitter embossing powder. I assure you it does match but had a hard time photographing this card so you could see that.

With all the trouble I had making this card, I LOVE the way it turned out.

This Trellis Cover Fri-die is now available in the CAS-ual Fridays Stamp Store in the NEW section. Use my code NORASENTME to get an extra 15% off your total order.

That is all from me today. Be sure to hop on over to the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Blog to see some more incredible creations using this new die and to enter into a giveaway.

I hope you all have a FABULOUS day!!!
