Avery Elle summer release blog hop!

Hi there!

I am so excited because our Summer 2023 Release is finally here!!  We have an amazing blog hop full of inspiration today and we are so glad that you are here. For my card today, I used the new Starburst Oval Die and the new Bigger Cake stamp set:

I backed the oval die with a pale yellow cardstock, and made a shaker window filled with cake sprinkles. Then, I sponged the inside edge of the starburst with a light blue ink before adding in the adorable images. 

I hope you like it!

Avery Elle spring release blog hop!

Hi there!

I am so excited because our Spring 2023 Release is finally here!!  We have an amazing blog hop full of inspiration today and we are so glad that you are here. I illustrated 5 sets for this release, but the one I'm showing off today is Howdy:

I used the scene-building elements - the barn, the tractor - to fill out the top of my card and create depth. The farmer and his critters are ready to celebrate!

Avery Elle new release blog hop!

 Hi there!

I am so excited because our Winter 2022 Release is finally here!!  We have an amazing blog hop full of inspiration today and we are so glad that you are here. Thank you so much for all of your comments and likes during our previews this week.  I read each and every comment and it really makes my day!!

I designed 1 set for this release, Bake Me So Happy, and it perfectly combines my love of baking with my love for cute critters!

I made 2 cards to share with you today. The first one is pretty in pink:

I used the heart spray stamp image to create a soft allover pattern on the pink cardstock layer. I then stamped, colored and die-cut all but the hedgehog (he'll pop up on a future card!) 

For my next card, I did a little bit of creative inking to replace the heart-shaped cookies with a pair of gingerbread men:

Before inking, I wiped off the cookies, part of the sheet tray, and the steam lines. Using a Misti stamp positioner really helps with this! Once everything was inked, I used a copic-friendly black pen to re-draw parts of the bear and pan that were missing. 

I brought in a few elements from other stamp sets. The rug, frame and stool are from Feels Like Home. The more Christmassy elements are from Mr. And Mrs. Claus, Carolers, and Dino-Mite Christmas. 

I hope you like them! Come visit me on instagram for a fun giveaway, and be sure to check out the rest of the design team's creations:

Avery Elle fall/winter release blog hop!

 Hi there!

I am so excited because our Fall 2022 Release is finally here!!  We have an amazing blog hop full of inspiration today and we are so glad that you are here. Thank you so much for all of your comments and likes during our previews this week.  We read each and every comment and it really makes our day!!

I designed 4 sets for this new release. The first one is a halloween themed set called Frightfully Fun! I made this card to show all of the main images from the set. That mummy-wrapped turtle is my fave!

Carolers is my next set, and oh my goodness, it is so fun to work with! They are spreading the holiday spirit! The little mouse singing his heart out just makes me giggle. 

The last of the cards I have for you today is this one, featuring Peaceful Frame. I think I will be using this design for my holiday cards this year - as my daughter put it: it's elegant and cute all in one!

I ran out of time to create a card with my last set, Dino-mite Christmas, but here's a little peek at it! 

I hope you like what you are seeing! Come visit me on instagram for a fun giveaway, and be sure to check out the rest of the design team's creations:

Avery Elle new release blog hop!

 Hi there!

I'm so excited for this new Avery Elle release! You can find everything in the store already (click HERE). I designed 2 beachy sets for this release, Beachy and Make A Splash. I made 2 cards using Beachy to show off today!

For this first card, I stamped all of the elements, brought in the sun from Flamazing, and framed everything using the new Pierced Ray Frame die set. The whole scene is so bright and happy! I love the little flip flops in the sand. To give the scene a little extra pop, I colored the scalloped part of the frame (which is optional, how great is that!) in red. 

My next card features the same bear, but now he's bending down to see if he can hear what the squirrel is listening to from that shell! I used the other new frame die - the Pierced Birthday Frame - and did the opposite of what I did on the first card. The scalloped portion in white, and the frame in a fun pink. I brought in some clouds, from Carrot Car, and the big puddle from Tickled Pink to finish off the scene.

I hope you like the new sets! Come visit me on instagram for a fun giveaway, and be sure to check out the rest of the design team's creations:

Avery Elle new release blog hop!

Hi there!

wowza, this blog has just sat here with no new posts for the last few months. I've been posting stuff to instagram, but it feels like no one visits blogs anymore. I'd love to hear your opinion on that!

But today, I'm so excited for today's Avery Elle new release blog hop! I designed 5 sets for this release, and you'll find them all in the store HERE.

Today, I'm showing off the Rain Or Shine stamp set, and I've crafted 3 cards to show you:

My first card features the fox and his little duck friends! There are 2 ducks included in the set, but by tilting them a little differently, they look like they are all unique. I did an ink-blended background, and let it get hazy towards the middle. I then used my white gel pen to create the rain drops - some dashes, some round drops. 

 

To finish up the card, I used a copic marker to add darker puddles beneath their boots, and the white gel pen to add highlights.

 

Where my first card featured bright, primary colors, my next one is softer in its pastel colors. I brought in the bear and the little frog. I love his little googly eyes! I had no idea how hard it would be to draw a frog, by the way. Go figure, he's one of the smallest critters and I drew some really odd looking ones before I settled on him. I love how the bear and fox are providing him some shelter!

 

For this card, I only ink-blended around the top, and left the ground white. I added some soft blue puddles under their feet. 

My last card is the most simple, but still so sweet. I used the Star Scene die to provide the cut out, and backed it with a Waves die-cut in the background. I then layered a sweet scene featuring the bunny and his little snail friend. 

I hope you like what I created for you! I am running a giveaway on my instagram today - be sure to leave me a comment there to be entered to win a stamp set of your choosing from the new release.

And check out the other design team blogs today, their creations are amazing:

Avery Elle new release blog hop!

Hi there!

I am so excited because our Winter 2021 Release is finally here!!  We have an amazing blog hop full of inspiration today and we are so glad that you are here.

I illustrated 1 stamp set for this release, called Forest Dance Party. I'm so excited to share 3 cards with you today!

This stamp set was begging for a slimline design - I stamped all of the images from the set, and created this noisy scene! The dancing mice are attached as a duo, but I stamped an extra pair and just used scissors to separate them.

For my next card, I couldn't help but keep with the current season and create something for the holidays:

I brought in elements from Mr. & Mrs. Claus, and had the band strike up a Christmas tune. I kept all of the coloring very light and soft, and dotted the sky with snowflakes.

My 3rd card is a more simple design, and one that would be so cute as a card set! I imagine a set where each card features a different musical animal! Here, I colored the bunny:

I flanked the image on either side with the little floral spray from Wheelie Great.

I hope you like them!
