Nouveau Notes Collection Bundle

One other bit of housekeeping before we get to Keeway’s adorable TGIF project. We will once again be offering a full collection bundle for our Nouveau Notes collection. It will be available HERE and accessible from the home page when the release goes live (right now you can view it but won’t be able to add it to your cart until after 10am EDT).

PLEASE NOTE: The full Nouveau Notes collection bundle does NOT contain any of the consumable items we’re adding to the shop, it’s just the stamps, dies, hot foil, and stencils. That means if you want to pick up any of the magnets, envelopes, or pens, you’ll need to add those to your cart separately.

Now let’s hear it from Keeway and the sweet project she has for us today!

Happy Friday! The Floral Delicacy stamp set released today is my absolute favorite and as soon as I saw these little floral stems, I wanted to use them to create some tags with the Market Baskets Die.

I stamped and die cut the three little floral stem images from the Floral Delicacy stamp set to create mini bouquets to add to a basket. In my usual fashion, I like to add just a tiny bit of splatter on these solid images for some interest and set them aside to dry.

Next, I used the Market Baskets Die to build the remainder of the tag. I die cut the wire frame out of mirror gold card stock and the basket lining out of a light blue card stock. To add some shading to the basket lining, I did some ink blended with a darker but similar shade ink. I assembled all the pieces together.

I folded a piece of white card stock in half and used the basket lining die such that the top edge was just above the paper. This allowed me to die cut a mini shaped card. This was adhered to the back of the tag I put together so that I had a flap to write inside the tag.

As a last touch, I added a few gems and some string to finish it up.  Hope you enjoy today’s inspiration!
