Another Look at the Divinity Designs April 2019 Release

Good morning, friends...happy Friday!  Today we are taking another look at the Divinity Designs April 2019 Release. The April release was perfect for mothers, daughters and grandmothers so I used some of the new products to make a Mother's Day card.

My clean and simple card features the Daughter's Best Friend stamp set and the Long & Lean Letters Dies.

Creative Nugget:  The peonies from the Daughter's Best Friend stamp set were white embossed on a mixed media panel cut with a Pierced Rectangle Die.  Pink inks were sponged over the embossing so that the color faded toward the middle of the panel.  The Arrows Stencil was placed over the flowers and ink was sponged through the stencil.  Long & Lean Letter Dies were used to cut the word "HUGS" from the panel.  The letters were cut four more times from white card stock and stacked with the sponged letters on top.  The letters were then popped back into the panel.  The sentiment was clear embossed over pink ink and the panel layered onto one of the papers from the Pretty Pink Peonies Collection.  A Treat Tags Die was used to cut banners from the same paper collection.  A few sequins were added to finish the card.

This card and gift box will be submitted for the following challenges:
Word Art Wednesday Week #383 - Anything Goes
Tuesday Throwdown #429 Kitty Bee - Anything Goes
The Card Concept Challenge 113 - Spring Celebration Inspiration (Flowers)

Welcome to the Divinity Designs April 2019 Release

Hello, friends!  It's time again for another Divinity Designs Release...and this is not an April Fool's joke!  The April release is awesome and includes two floral stamp sets, a stencil and embossing folder for mixed media projects, plenty of new die sets, including one for piecing together a quilt and one to construct an explosion box and a gorgeous paper pad. Today I am sharing two projects using some of the new products.    

My first sample is a Tri-Fold Card featuring some of the beautiful papers from the Pretty Pink Peonies Collection and the Grandmother's Heart stamp set.

Creative Nugget: The peony on the center panel was colored with Copic Markers.  The sentiment was stamped on a Filigree Circle and mounted onto a circle cut with a Circle Die.  If you are like me...you have a hard time getting rid of those little strips of paper.  I decided to use some of those strips for some paper ribbon and bows to decorate some of the other panels.  The bows were cut with the Small Bow Dies and the bows were added to finish the card.

My second project also uses papers from the Pretty Pink Peonies Collection and the Quilted Triangles Die.

Creative Nugget:  The Cross Stitched Embossing Folder was used to emboss the front of the card.  Seven different papers were cut with the Quilted Triangles Die and the pieces placed back into the quilt frames.  This gave me seven different quilt squares, six of which can be used on other cards so keep a lookout for more cards coming in future posts.  The sentiment from the Daughter's Best Friend stamp set was embossed on a panel cut with one of the Double Stitched Rectangle Dies and mounted to a Double Stitched Pennant Flag.  A little organdy bow was added to finish the card.

These new products from Divinity Designs were used to create the cards above...
