Hello! Welcome to the Spring 2015 Essentials by Ellen Release Hop. I am so HAPPY and honored to be participating. Julie Ebersole has designed four stamp and five die sets that are perfect for all things Spring (and Summer; dang, you can use these all year round!). You can find them here.
I'm showcasing two of the new products, a sentiment set for the women in your life, Amazing Women, and the Bohemian Garden Dies (although a few other products from the Spring Release snuck in).
Oh, and one lucky commenter on Dear Paperlicious will win Amazing Women.
In order to be eligible to win this stamp set, please leave a comment on this post no later than May 5th. I'll announce the winner here on the blog on May 6th.
The fun begins in the CLASSroom and there is also a Grand Giveaway! To enter, be sure to leave a comment there, and at every stop along the hop by May 5th! Winners will be announced May 8th.
Happy Hopping (so much beauty!!) and Good Luck! Oh, and here are the hoppees:
1. And That Is All.
Sometimes a sentiment set says it all! This card uses Amazing Women and Bohemian Garden stamps and dies and will end up in Mr. Dear Paperlicious' backpack.
Next up is a rustic (for me) is a kraft wrapped package on which I stamped the gorgeous flower from Mondo Magnolia, which is Mondolicious.
The tag includes another sentiment from Amazing Women and stamps and dies from Bohemian Garden. The green "ink" is Ranger Liquid Pearls Key Lime.
Striped paper on the tag is from the fun Pink Paislee's Bella Rouge 12 x 12 collection. My mom died a couple of years ago, but I was inspired by her when I made this. I know she would love it (or possibly go all snarky on me -- you just never knew!).
This card also uses Amazing Women and Bohemian Garden. Background is made with Adirondack Dye Reinker Brights. Wanted the loosey goosey look because it is the opposite of what I usually make.
The Bohemian Garden dies and stamps are just luscious! Added a sentiment from Mondo Magnolia, and more of those Adirondack Reinkers, some gold paper and black spray.
Please continue on the hop and good luck with the contests!
