TAWS November Release Sneak Peek Day Three

Hello crafty friends!  Today is Day Three of the TAWS November release sneak peeks!  I'm sure you've been enjoying the little snippets you've seen of the new stamps sets over the last couple of days and I'm so excited to share my project with you today!

In addition to paper-crafting I love to sew.  My mother taught me to sew when I was knee-high to a grasshopper and after taking a sewing class in Junior High I was hooked for sure.  I used to make skirts for myself all the time (to wear to work) and I'm proud to say that every curtain hanging in my house was made by me!  So I was especially thrilled to see this new stamp set which celebrates the art of sewing with some fun images!

My card doubles as a tag because a hand-stitched gift deserves a hand-made gift tag!  The sketch at Fusion provided my layout.

You have a chance to win this set for FREE (squeeeee) just by leaving a comment on this post at The Alley Way Stamps blog and by sharing that sneak peek on Facebook.  Be sure to leave a separate comment here for each that you do and make sure you do it by 9:30 pm TAWS time.

Good luck!

Hey friends!  It's time for the blog hop hosted by The Alley Way Stamps!  The new stamps sets will be released on June 1st, and today all of the Design Team are showing off some super creative cards featuring some of the new stamps sets!

My card features this fun robot from Bot Time.  I don't know about you, but I think she's a girl robot because there's something about her wide-eyed look that seems awfully feminine to me!  I colored her up with Copics, fussy cut her and layered her on some white cardstock that was stamped with some of the fun images from the stamp set.

TAWS June Sneak Peeks Day 3

We're only a couple of days away from the June release at The Alley Way Stamps!  Today we're showing sneak peeks of Tropical Hideaway.  Just wait until you see all the fun stamps in this set!

This gorgeous flower deserved to be colored with bright colors and I continued that bright theme by adding a small border of Melon Mambo around the edges of my card.  The layout for my card comes from the Sunday Stamps sketch challenge and I owe the pretty colors to the Fusion challenge.

TAWS May Sneek Peaks Day 3

It's almost time for the May release at The Alley Way Stamps and this morning I've got a sneak peek to show you using some fun stamps from Bird Brain.  Don't you just love that name?

That big wide-open stare from the larger bird says to me that he can't believe that sweet, pretty girl-bird loves him!  But she definitely does!

I got a little inspiration for my card from the sketch at Unscripted Sketches and the colors at Color Throwdown, but the love birds are inspiration all on their own!

So, would you like to win this stamp set?  Well if you do, then head on over to The Alley Way Stamps blog and comment on the sneak peek post you'll find there that showcases this fun stamp set.  Then, share that post on Facebook (and leave a comment that you did so).  Then guess what?  You'll have two entries for a random drawing that will leave one lucky stamper one stamp set richer!

Thanks for stopping by!

TAWS April Sneak Peeks #2

It's sneak peek time at The Alley Way Stamps!  Today I get to show off a card I made using the sentiment stamp set Life is Short.

This stamp set is full of wonderful phrases and for this card I split up the phrase so that part was on the front of the card and part was on the inside.  (Easy to do by inking up the stamp with a marker instead of an ink pad).

This fun layout is from the latest Deconstructed Sketch and the pretty pink colors are courtesy of Dynamic Duos.

Now, if you would like a chance to win this stamp set head on over to The Alley Way Stamps blog.  All the comments posted today on the blog will go into a random drawing.  You can have two entries:  one for commenting on the sneak peek post at The Alley Way Stamps blog and one for sharing the sneak peek on Facebook.  Commenting closes at 9:30pm TAWS time so hurry on over!

Supplies

Stamps:  Life is Short (The Alley Way Stamps)

Accessories:  Welcome Neighbor DSP, Loves Me DSP (SU); Sentiment Strips die (MFT); Petite Scallop Oval die (Spellbinders); Pretty in Pink grosgrain ribbon; Pretty in Pink button; Dimensionals; crochet thread

TAWS March Sneak Peeks #3

Woot Woot!  Today is my first day of official duties as part of  The Alley Way Stamps design team!!!  There are three new sets releasing tomorrow and today I get to show you a little sneaky-peeky of one of them called Pillow Talk.

This set is just filled with fun geometric designs!  I colored up some of the shapes in random colors and punched out a butterfly.  It's a little tricky to see the butterfly in this pic so I took another one that shows up just a tad better.  

It's week 52 over at retro sketches and the challenge this week is to pick a past sketch.  I chose #14 for my card.  I think my card was heavily influenced by the butterfly in the skektch!  {wink}

Be sure to head on over to The Alley Way Stamps blog because one lucky commenter will win today's featured stamp Pillow Talk!  Click here to get all the deets!
