Merry Christmas Eve!

Happy Holidays 

and best wishes for a fantastic New Year 

from all of us at Avery Elle! 

We will be on a break from now until January 2nd on the blog but be sure to check back then because we will be announcing the winner of our current guest designer challenge which ends January 1st.  Will it be you!?  You can check out the details here.

Today we have Chunyuan with these three cards she created using the circle of our new Pinked Dies set.

I love how festive this first card is.  That ampersand stamped on the pinked circle is such a great idea! 

Stamps: Holiday Fill In The Blank, Cheers ; Dies: Holiday Fill In The Blank and Pinked

Using the Pinked circles to cut out and mat holiday images like Chunyuan did below is another fantastic idea!

Stamps: Winter Wreath ; Dies: Pinked, Holiday Fill In The Blank

I love the color scheme and how the white and red pop in this next card.  How cute is that twine? ;)

Stamps: Winter Wreath ; Dies: Pinked, Simply Tags: Everyday

 Kasia created this bold and graphic card using our Love Notes stamp set.  I love the fonts in this sentiment!  She created the accent banner and used one of the dies in our Simply Tags Love Notes Pocket Die to create the pretty edge on the bottom.   It is a great way to get even more use out of this die set.

Thanks for stopping by to take a peek. Have a great day!

Fill In The Blank, Let It Snow & Winter Wreath

Today we have Chunyuan with this adorable gift set using our Holiday Fill In The Blank stamp set, Holiday Fill In The Blank dies, Words Fill In The Blank dies and Cheers die.   She shows how well these sets work together and can be changed to create endless looks.  How cute are her felt wine tag charms?  Be sure to check out Chunyuan's blog for more details.

Kasia created this pretty card using our Let It Snow clear stamp set.  I love the way the gray tree background plays against the silhouette of the deer.  Perfect, clean and simple!

JJ created this next card using our Let It Snow and Winter Wreath stamp sets.  I love the way that these sets work together.  The white, kraft, green and red color is so cozy.

Inspiration from JJ & Heather

Today we have JJ with this pretty gilded card she created using our Winter Wreath, Build A Banner and Holiday Fill In The Blank stamp sets.  I love the way that the images on the banner are popped up and match card base.  Our Sapphire card stock is the perfect dark color to set off the gold.  Be sure to check out JJ's blog for more information.

Heather created this gorgeous card using our Laurels and Build A Banner clear stamp sets and dies.  The sentiment from Petals and Stems fits perfectly inside the banner.  I just love her flower cluster and the way our Lemon Grass, Mimosa, Sea Glass and Pixie card stocks work together.  You can find more details on Heather's blog here.

More with Kasia and Chunyuan

Today we have Kasia with this fall card that she created using our Thankful clear stamps.  I love how she stamped the leaves at an angle and added them behind the button. This is a great example of how stamping one image repeatedly can create terrific results.

Chunyuan created this fun card using our Holiday Fill In The Blank stamps.  I love her color choices and the way that pink pops.  The Aim High, and Chevron Bits die cuts lend a modern feel to this.  I just love it.

Two Holiday Cards

Today we have Kasia with this fun card she created using our Fill In The Blank Holiday clear stamp and die set.  I love her use of repetition and colors.  Those little star stickers on top of the trees are so cute!

Chunyuan created this card using our Winter Wreath, Build A Banner and Simply Tags: Christmas clear stamps and dies.   The bold bow and banner play off the finer wreath so well.  I love it.

More Favorites From Last Month

This week is a fun week for us.  We will be having our design team blog hop this Thursday to highlight sets from our latest release.  We will also have a giveaway so be sure to stop by for lots of inspiration and fun. 

I thought that I would continue to highlight some of my favorite projects that I have seen this past month using our Fill In The Blank Holiday stamp & dies, Thankful & Texture Tiles: Be Cute clear stamp sets.

JJ created these two projects for the Simon Says Stamp blog last month using her Fill In the Blank Holiday clear stamps and dies.  I love them both!

Chunyuan's Nuts About You card using our Thankful and Happy Camper stamp sets is just adorable.

 

Donna's use of our Texture Tiles: Be Cute stamp set to create a mat for the birds from Let It Snow and branch from Laurels is so lovely.  The sentiment from Lots of Love is just perfect.

Thanks for stopping by to take a peek. Have a great day!

Merry & Bright

Today we have Maska with this gorgeous layout using our Holiday Fill In The Blank clear stamps and dies.  I also see some Laurels, Simply Tags Christmas and Winter Wreath images tucked in too.  I love all of the layers and texture!

Kim Singdahlsen paired the sunburst image and sentiment from our Bright Days clear stamps with the trees and birds from Let It Snow to create this cheery card.  She shows us how our Let It Snow clear stamps can be used for more than just winter and holiday projects.  Brilliant! How cute is this little bird and this card???

Thanks for stopping by to take a peek. Have a great day!

Amazing Inspiration from Nina and Donna!

Today is a real treat because I have two AMAZING projects to show you.

The first is from Nina using our Fill In The Blank Holiday dies, Bow Simply Tags Christmas Dies and our Simply Tags: Christmas stamp set.  How cute are those tiny bows with the jingle bells? I love these two dies together!!

Donna used our Texture Tiles : Be Cute clear stamps to create the perfect mat for these cute little birds from our Let It Snow stamp set. I love how she used the leaf from our Laurels set as a branch.  I always like to see creative uses for stamps that help stretch my collection.  The simple yet sweet saying from our Lots of Love stamp set and is the perfect finishing touch.

I had so much fun at Paper Tales this past Saturday.  It was so great to meet, chat and stamp with everyone that stopped by.  If you are ever in the San Diego area, you should definitely check Paper Tales out.  It is the cutest store full of incredible inspiration and people!!

Our AEI♥U Challenge Winner is Yainea .  Congratulations!  I just love the colors and composition of this terrific card using our Oh Happy Day clear stamp set.  We cannot wait to have you as a guest designer for November!  Please contact us at customerservice@averyelle.com so that we can get your prize to you.

Nina created this pretty Miss You card using the trees from Let It Snow, bow from the Simply Tags: Christmas clear stamp set and a sentiment from our Handwritten Notes clear stamp set.  I love her idea of adding a yellow ribbon to the trees - perfect for those with friends or family in the military.

Donna created these next two cards using our Holiday Fill In The Blank clear stamp set and the coordinating dies.  She stretched her crafting time and supplies even further by using the "leftover" Merry die cuts from the first card to create her festive second card.  I love shortcuts like that!
