Perfectly sized for tags, card focal points and more. There are eight different dies in this collection. They can be purchased individually, or we will also have a bundle product page for easy purchasing of all eight of these new dies.

Winter Herbarium Labels stamp set

Similar to the Autumn version, this mini stamp set features wintery botanical names, perfect for labeling the dies from our Bigger Holiday Botanicals series introduced above and more. Again, like the Autumn version, it can be paired with the Label It die, but also works nicely with the Little Linked Labels suite introduced a little later in this post.

Large Linked Labels stamp set, die, & embossing folder

If you loved our popular Tear Strip Tags series, you’ll love these new label sets! Following the same concept as the Tear Strip Tags, the die cuts three labels that stay intact for easy stamping (or embossing) all in one go, and can then be snipped apart. The icing on the cake? This set has a matching embossing folder for adding gorgeous embossed details to the labels! Whether you like stamping, embossing or both, this pretty label set has you covered. The stamp set includes a variety of sentiments for both the holidays as well as year-round applications. The embossing folder features a design that includes lines for writing, and one that embosses just the borders.

Little Linked Labels stamp set, die, & embossing folder

Similar to the Large Linked Labels set introduced above, we also have a similar concept in a smaller size! The Little Linked Labels die cuts a strip of 5 labels. The coordinating stamp set includes a stamp for stamping decorative borders on all five labels in one go, plus an assortment of sentiments perfect for gift tags and labels. The embossing folder can handle two strips of labels for making quicker work of adding pretty embossed details. The embossing folder and stamps can be used independently or combined.

Capsule Collection Holiday Borders stamp set, Capsule Filigree Borders, Capsule Quick Tags stamp set, & Capsule Basics stencil

We’re continuing to add elements to our Capsule line up! We have some new holiday border stamps, a set of gorgeous frame dies that add a delicate decorative border, some quick tag images, and a basics stencil set. The Quick Tags set features two different all-in-one images that includes a border, to/from sentiments, and lines for writing, all designed to fit on the second-from-the-smallest plain oval from the Capsule Basics die (one step smaller than the size that accommodates both the original Floral Borders and the new Holiday Borders), making them perfect for tags! The Capsule Basics stencil will be a go-to tool for creating with any of our Capsule products. While it can of course function as a traditional stencil, with lots of etched guidelines, it’s also a handy tool for alignment and positioning when using the stamps and dies from the Capsule line.

Regency Bow No. 1 and No. 2 dies

We have a couple of new bows coming your way! These two new beautiful bows were inspired by the elegance and symmetry of Regency-era design. They are simply gorgeous, easy to assemble, and work wonderfully with our Capsule line, and so many other things as well. Each set includes two sizes.

Hang It Up die & Capsule Christmas Gallery Prints

Our fun Hang it Up die can be added to nearly any basic die to turn it into a hanging work of art (or tag!). The set features two different hanger styles in a few different sizes. Try pairing them with our Capsule Basics or A2 Arches for starters! The Capsule Christmas Prints feature a lovely assortment of vintage images and are designed to be cut with the second-to-the-smallest plain oval die from the Capsule Basics set.

Shortbread Shapes: Snowflake embossing folder & die

We’re adding another die and embossing folder suite to our Shortbread Shapes product line. This one features a gorgeous star/snowflake design surrounded by a beautiful border. The best part? That pretty outer frame doesn’t feature any snowflakes, which means this one can stay on your desk all year long as a gorgeous basic! This set is sized for 5″ x 7″ cards, but the inner star/snowflake can certainly be used on smaller cards as well.

I’m so excited to share my projects with you! I’ll be sharing all of these in the intro video coming later today as well, so if you want to see and hear all about them, stay tuned for that. 🙂

First up, I had so much fun creating framed botanicals using the Bigger Holiday Botanical dies, the new Regency 1 & 2 bows, the Filigree Borders and more. One thing you’ll be seeing quite a lot of in today’s projects is woodgrain cardstock. Have you ever tried embossing it? I’m hooked! It turns out looking like beautiful carved wood! The kind used on my projects is Gmund Tindalo 111lb cardstock from LCI Paper.

This is a fun mix of tags and cards, all featuring clear acetate to mimic the look of pretty framed glass. I just used transparency sheets that you can pick up at just about any office supply/big box store.

First let’s talk about the cards from this grouping! This first one consists of two layers to create the frame…the new Shortbread Shapes: Snowflake die and embossing folder layered over a frame embossed with the Rosemal Reflections embossing folder (cut with the Capsule Basics die). The layering is just ooh-la-la pretty! I love how the flowers on the Rosemal frame just peek out a little from behind the Shortbread Shapes: Snowflake frame (of which that outer frame has no snowflakes, so it’s going to be perfect for year round use!) I also nested one of the new Filigree Borders diecuts, cut from antique gold cardstock on the inside edge of the Rosemal frame.

The mistletoe on the cover was cut with the new Bigger Holiday Botanicals Mistletoe die. I used two mistletoe clusters to make a fuller, larger bunch. I also added a hanger cut from the same gold cardstock using the new Hang It Up die. I did some ink blending over the embossing using a blending brush and dark brown ink to bring out the embossing a little more and make it look even more like stained wood. On the inside is a sentiment, stamped with the new Capsule Collection Holiday Borders stamp set, heat embossed in gold.

Tip #1: To create the shaped card base, diecut the Shortbread Shapes: Snowflake outer frame “on the fold”, positioning the die so that it doesn’t cut the left edge, resulting in a shaped card base.

Tip #2: Since this is a 5×7 sized card, the shaped card base created using the process in Tip #1 is going to be too large to go through a standard diecutting machine laying flat/open, so to cut the window, leave it folded and place the Capsule Basics die inside, with the blade side of the die facing the card front.

This next one uses the Rosemal Reflections frame, which was cut using the Capsule Basics die and embossed with the Rosemal Reflections embossing folder. I used the new Capsule Basics stencil set to help nest the dies just perfectly so they would line up with the embossing folder. It’s such a handy tool!

I again nested a Capsule Filigree Border diecut on the inside edge of the frame. The flowers were cut using the Bigger Holiday Botanicals: Paperwhite die and again I used the same sentiment from the new Capsule Holiday Borders set and a Hang It Up hanger.

This third one uses the same supplies as above, I just used some different dies for the florals…this time I used the Bigger Holiday Botanicals Poinsettia and Wax Flower dies.

And one more look at the all of them together…

Next let’s take a look at all of the tags that were done using the same concept…pretty botanicals on framed “glass”. These are perfect for tying to packages, but they would make beautiful ornaments as well.

These tags were created by using a variety of dies to create the outer frames, and then they all use the new Hang It Up die to add the hanger part. I love this handy little die…it can turn almost any basic shape die into a little hanging work of art (or tag!). The dies used to create the frames include the Capsule Basics, Capsule Filigree Borders, A2 Arches, and Hoopla Round (Hoopla Oval would also be a great choice).

Many of these use the new Little Linked Labels die, stamp set, and embossing folder to create the little labels, which were stamped with the botanical names using the new Winter Herbarium Labels stamp set. I added a second label to the backside of each, which was stamped with the “to/from” sentiment from the new Little Linked Labels stamp set.

These were just so much fun to put together! I also added ribbons and bows to all of them using the new Regency Bow No. 1 and No. 2, with the exception of the tiny Mistletoe arched frame – that ones uses a little bow from the Market Place Holiday Festoons die.

Next I have another batch of tags, this set uses the new Large Linked Labels stamp set, die, and embossing folder. I created a whole set of pretty little folded tags.

To create the folded tag bases, I folded a panel of cardstock, then used the Large Linked Labels die and cut it “on the fold”, positioning the die so that the left edge of the strip of labels did not cut. Then instead of using the labels horizontally as they are really intended to be used, I turned them the other direction to create vertical tags with the fold at the top. I created the colored labels by stamping the triple-frame image from the Large Linked Labels stamp set, heat embossed with gold embossing powder, then diecut them with the Large Linked Labels die. To add even more dimension I embossed them with the Large Linked Labels embossing folder.

Once my colorful labels were finished, I adhered these pretty labels to my folded bases and added hangers using the new Hang It Up die. I used the Bitty Holiday Botanicals stamp + stencil and matching die to make quick work of creating little florals to add to each tag. The sentiments are all from the Large Linked Labels stamp set.

I have one more set of tags, then I have a few more card ideas to share!

This next set of tags uses the new Capsule Christmas Gallery prints and the new Capsule Quick Tags stamp set. These were fun and relatively quick to put together after doing a bit of diecutting! I went ahead and diecut all of those cute vintage prints from the Capsule Christmas prints so that they were ready to go. I diecut a Capsule Filigree Border to go layer over each one, cut from vintage gold cardstock. I also cut bows and hanging rings for each using the new Regency Bow No. 1 and Hang it Up dies.

These tags are two layers that swivel to reveal the to/from portion of the tag – the Capsule Prints on the outside, with a Capsule Quick Tags layer underneath. I used the Hang It Up rings and tabs to create the swivel mechanism for each tag. Super simple to do, just fold the tab around the top of both tags and use a piercing tool to pierce through all of the layers, then insert a brad to secure (I used the Mini Screw Top brads), adding in the diecut hanging ring as well before securing.

The banners were diecut using the Rosemal Reflections die and stamped with the “gift for you” sentiment from the Rosemal Reflections Sentiments stamp set.

I have a handful of card ideas to share with you before we turn it over to the Inspiration team to see what they’ve been up to!

This first one uses the pretty new Shortbread Shapes: Snowflake embossing folder and die. It’s fun to play around with the different dies from the set, mixing and matching to create layers and cut-outs.

I diecut the pretty outer frame using the Shortbread Shapes: Snowflake die, and also cut the star from the interior so that I could pop up the frame portion. I embossed both the frame and the interior star, as well as a full 5×7 panel using the Shortbread Shapes: Snowflake embossing folder. I brushed some white ink onto the embossing to bring it out a little more. The sentiment was stamped onto one of the new Little Linked Labels, which was embossed with the Little Linked Labels embossing folder. The sentiment is from the Simple Mini Holiday Sentiments set released last month. I also added a red banner label underneath, which was cut using the Shortbread Shapes: Rectangle Labels die, also release last month. The pretty floral and greenery accents were cut using the new Bigger Holiday Botanicals: Wax Flower die.

Next up I have some cute little star-shaped cards using the new Shortbread Shapes suite. I also pulled out an oldie (but goodie)…Candy Pops Peppermint Additions die.

I used just the star portion of the Shortbread Shapes: Snowflake die to create the shaped card bases, again using the cut-on-the-fold technique. I then diecut the snowflake/star again to layer over the top, this time also using the optional section die – this part is optional, you can choose to use it or not, but I like how it added some extra detail to the design here. I embossed these with the Shortbread Shapes: Snowflake embossing folder and brushed some ink to further highlight the embossing. I added the peppermint diecuts, a Shorbread Shapes: Rectangle Label (red) and also a smaller label, which was stamped, embossed and cut with the Little Linked Labels suite. The little greenery sprigs are from the Botanicuts Juniper die. When these were finished I flocked them using SnowFlock powder for a flour-y frosty look! Oh, and I added a couple of little peppermint embellishments from the Mint & Berry Bits as well.

Next I have a pair of cards that uses the new Capsule Collection Holiday Borders stamp set. I don’t know if you remember this card I created for the August release, but I loved the simplicity and elegance of it, and thought it would be fun to create a holiday version. I actually created two – one using the pine border, and the other using the holly version.

I kept the basic layout and everything the same and used the Capsule Basics die and Borders 1 hot foil, just like the original, but swapped out the floral borders for holiday borders instead, and also added bows using the new Regency Bow No. 1 die.

My final project share for today is a pair of cards again using several of those pretty new Bigger Holiday Botanicals dies, inspired by vintage botanicals (you know by now how I love them!).

The shaped bases were created using the largest plain oval die from the Capsule Basics set, then topped off with a Capsule Filigree Border, cut from vintage gold cardstock. I added just a little ink blending and brushing using Tea Dye ink for a more vintage look.

Then I had fun playing around with arranging those pretty botanicals. I also pulled out some previously released dies to mix in a few more greenery sprigs…I used the BotaniCuts Pine Bough and Juniper dies. All of the flower names and labels were stamped using the Winter Herbarium Labels stamp set and kraft-colored ink. I added the cute hangers using the new Hang it Up die. Even with the hanger added, these cards will fit in a 5×7 envelope, yay!

I hope you enjoyed this product and project showcase of all of the new Christmas Gallerie collection! The Inspiration Team has been busy creating as well, and they have so much to share with you. I hope you’ll hop along…there are prizes too (of course!)
