January Sneaky Peek #5

1 / 24 / 201 / 24 / 20

If it’s not snowing it’s raining this time of year. Maybe it’s the time of year, but I always feel so much hope, so much possibility and the joy that comes with it when the rain falls and brings the earth so much freshness.That’s why this set for Day #5 of Sneaky Peek Week is just perfect. It’s a darling NEW set called Splish Splash.

Every day of Sneaky Peek Week we will be releasing the peek of the day. Today, you can get Splish Splash with its FREE Cutting File. If you can wait a little longer the entire release will be available on January 28 at a discount.

Cristena Bagne’s card is simple but beautiful. The images in Splish Splash are just wonderful. They have a hand drawn quality that makes your coloring shine.

How cute is this card by Beata June? Her colors are so vibrant and remind me of the colors of Spring when it rains when it’s sunny. It’s perfect for our Spring Forward TCP Tuesday Challenge.

If you choose not to color the images in this set, that’s okay too. Melissa Chipperfield creates a delicate background that show off the lines of this sweet set.

Finally, Brenda Nakandakari creates this STUNNING card stringing beads in the background making the rain look sparkly and pretty. She uses the Cloud & Balloon die for the Cloud and she layers up the Grass die for a wonderful look

Now check out the rest of The Cat Pack and comment on each of the following blogs and you could win a $10 gift voucher. We’ll pick a winner each day this week from the comments on the blogs and post the winners here and on our Facebook page.

January Sneaky Peek Day #4

1 / 23 / 201 / 23 / 20

It’s Day #4 of our January Release and today I’m hoping you are in the mood for Easter. I know The Cat Pack is by looking at the great cards they created with our NEW set, “Follow the Bunny.” This set is a little snarky, rather than sweet, and that’s what I love about it

Every day of Sneaky Peek Week we will be releasing the peek of the day. Today, you can get Follow the Bunny with matching dies. If you want both, you can get them now, at a discount by getting the bundle. If you can wait a little longer the entire release will be available on January 28

Julee Tilman starts us off with this colorful card. Not only does this set have great sentiments, but it has a lot of little bits to create a scene. Using the matching dies really help when it comes to arranging.

Next up is this sweet card by Brenda Nakandakari. She uses the open circle from the Framed Up 2 CutUps and the bunny and little peeps to create her scene. Then, she ties off some ribbon for more texture and color. Just lovely.

Cristena Bagne’s card is just bursting with Spring color and it’s perfect for our TCP Tuesday Spring Forward Challenge. If you want to play along, just add your card to the inlinkz link at the bottom of this post

We are closing down this post with this darling treat box from Kerry Urbatch. Decorated with flowers from the Petal Posie CutUps this treat box is perfect for the young, or young at heart

Now you know the drill. Comment on each of the following blogs and you could win a $10 gift voucher. We’ll pick a winner each day this week from the comments on the blogs and post the winners here and on our Facebook page.

Oo La La! A Rose Ombre Wreath

1 / 23 / 201 / 23 / 20

I just I thought I would break in on Sneaky Peek Week cause this pretty project just wouldn’t, couldn’t wait 🙂

I created this sweet ombre rose wreath with items from the Dollar Tree and our Shakey Serif Stencilz.

I started with a tinsel covered wreath and unwrapped it to reveal the frame. Then, I covered the heart frame with different colored roses and topped it with a diamond printed ribbon.

I wanted the rose wreath to really stand out so I glued together grooved signs and painted them. I used the Shakey Serif Stencilz to stencil the word “Always” in the corner

I love the juxtaposition of the rough farmhouse shiplap background and the fluffy pink roses and bow. It feels very French and very feminine.

January Sneaky Peek Day #3

1 / 22 / 201 / 23 / 20

It’s Day #3 of our January Release and today we are peeking this sweet little set, “Make Tea”. We are also blessed to have the Coffee Loving Cardmakers Design Team doing a collaboration with us and I can’t wait to see what they’ve created. I’ll be presenting The Cat Pack on this blog and links to the FABULOUS Coffee Lover’s Designers will be posted at the end. 🙂

Every day of Sneaky Peek Week we will be releasing the peek of the day. Today, you can get Make Tea along with the FREE Cutting Files for this set. The entire release will be available on January 28 🙂

Kerry Urbatch is on both The Cat’s Pajamas AND the Coffee Loving Cardmakers Team and from this card I think you can see why. Her shabby chic card is beautifully colored and those “coffee grounds” are everything!

When have I felt like Beata June’s card? Too many times! When the sky is this dark it makes me appreciate a good strong bit of caffeine while I rush about trying to get ready.

Send some caffeine my way Nancy. Nancy Thomas’ darling card just makes me happy. With her sweet bunny sitting on a bed of hearts, I can just smell the caffeine

Are you playing along with our Spring Forward TCP Tuesday Challenge? If you are, here’s some great inspiration from Brenda Nakandakari

Her fabulous step card is full of dimension. From the sweet bunny up front to the Cups on the second level with the little mouse to the sentiment on the top level . This card is a great masculine card or for anyone really. I’d love to see a little gift card tucked behind the sentiment. Yes Please!

Finally, Wendy McGaffey creates a scene with the uber cute characters from the set. It’s a really fun set with great images to color as much as you want, or not , with 5 characters and 4 sentiments.

But wait there’s more. I could only show a handful of the wonderful cards The Cat Pack created. So, check their blogs for more.

November Sneaky Peek #6

11 / 23 / 1911 / 23 / 19

Congrats! You’ve made it to Day #6 of Sneaky Peek Week. I’ve been wanting to do a celebration set for a while now. Besides graduation, there are so many other times we celebrate in our lives. A new baby, a promotion, getting a new job, being accepted into college… how about the New Year? And, who better to help us celebrate, but the long- eared bunny! Presenting “Winning!”

Cristena Bagne pops a bottle with her stunning New Year card. She uses the Twist Stencilz as a background and the NEW Shakey Numbers Stencilz, outlining the numbers to make them really stand out.

Beata June celebrates a big one with this cute bunny and the NEW Skinny Alphabet Stencilz helps create a custom message.

Beata June can’t stop celebrating, counting down the NEW Year and a little pop of bubbly with the NEW Skinny Numbers Stencilz.

The card from Nancy Thomas reminds me of a surprise party, waiting to jump out and yell “surprise!” The Shakey Numbers Stencilz help countdown your special message.

Finally, Julee Tilman. Julee uses the Succulent Stencilz to create a beautiful background for her 2020 celebration card. The oversized numbers act as a great accessory to the celebration bunny.

Is it just me, but I’m loving this sweet bun. This set is a great set for the New Year’s or for any special occasion. For a closer look at today’s cards, check out the following blogs and comment. You could win a $10 gift voucher. We’ll pick a winner each day this week from the comments on the blogs and post the winners here and on our Facebook page.

November Sneaky Peek #3

11 / 20 / 1911 / 20 / 19

Day 3 is here! It’s the last the last Sneaky Peek Week of the year and this time of year I tend to feel a little nostalgic and surround myself with people I love and really miss the people who are not around. So, this set celebrates them. This little set is called Hugs Needed. You can get the entire release on November 26. But, if you just can’t wait, the set is available now.

This sweet little card by Kerry Urbatch is just too adorable. This little boy and girl are two separate stamps, but work really well together. Kerry adds some doodles here and there to customize her card.

Beata June creates a scene on her card. It’s simple but, really tugs at the heartstrings.

Also, high on the adorable meter is this card from Melissa Chipperfield. She uses the Flutterby Die to create those gusty gusts.

Am I the only one that let out a great big sigh when I saw this pretty from Rebekah Weckerly? I love this little dog waiting for his person. The delicate clouds she created in the background just add to the whimsical quality of this card.

Finally, Julee Tilman gives us her spin on this set. The background is created using the NEW Pattern Builder and the Stripes and Plaid Stencils. You get 3 different sizes of them when you get the Pattern Builder that you can mix and match. A swatch of grass really brightens up the card and ties the whole thing together.

I hope you really liked the cards The Cat Pack created. Now, go to their blogs and let them know by commenting on their blogs. You could win a $10 gift voucher. We’ll pick a winner each day this week from the comments on the blogs and post the winners here and on our Facebook page.

November Sneaky Peek #2

11 / 19 / 1911 / 19 / 19

Today is Day 2 of the last Sneaky Peek Week of the year and today we are sneaking peeking a sweet little set called Hello Darlin’. You can get the entire release on November 26. But, if you just can’t wait, the set is available now.

This sweet little set is shown off to perfection by Melissa Chipperfield. She uses the Round Bubbles CutUps Die to create a yummy background for this darling Zebra.

Even flamingoes and ostriches need love. Brenda Nakandakari gives a vintage twist to her pretty card. Is it just me, or are you waiting for ukulele music to start?

I really, really dig Rebekah Weckerly’s card using the same stamps. Same stamps, totally different look, especially where googly eyes are concerned. Googly eyes add sooooo much.

I like this card by Julee Tilman a lottle. Julee uses the NEW Shakey Serif Alphabet Stencilz to create the “Hi” in her card. Since it’s a stencil, it’s a fantastic way to personalize your cards and projects with your own message for a great price. The stripes are custom too, made with our NEW Pattern Builder. You get 3 different sizes of stripes with the Pattern Builder to get you started. It’s a great way to create custom stripes and plaids. And those darling drops on either side of the sentiment? They were made with the NEW Hand drawn Scrolls Stencilz.

Here’s a little video that shows you how the Pattern Builder works.

I’m so excited to announce that The Cat’s Pajamas is sponsoring the Bella Crafts LIVE Event! Join us tomorrow at 10am pst on their Facebook page. It’s sure to be a lottle fun!

That’s it for today. Now, head on over to the The Cat Pack’s blogs, and then comment on their blogs. You could win a $10 gift voucher. We’ll pick a winner each day this week from the comments on the blogs and post the winners here and on our Facebook page.
