STAMPlorations new release ...

It's exciting times at STAMPlorations today - we have a new release of some fabulous coffee cup dies - they are simply beautiful.  There is an opportunity linked to the release for you to be in with the chance of winning one of the dies - all you need to do is visit the designers and leave a comment.  Fancy taking a look at the projects you could make ... I've a couple of projects to share:

First up, one design two ways - the negative and the positive:

On the left:

For this one I die cut the detail twice - first in white card and then in a piece of a gelli print and pieced the blue into the white.

On the right:

For this one I used the outline die cut when the pieces for the first one were removed - I hope this makes sense!!

My final project :

For this one I went for the Christmas twist.  I die cut the solid die first from red card and the detailed die from some designer Christmas paper.  Added some 'froth' to the top of the mug and a Christmas sentiment - i also added some Wink of Stella marker to add some sparkle to the froth and sentiment.

I used:
STAMPlorations:
Zen Coffee Cup Layering Dies
Merry Christmas Word Art Die - I cropped the die cut and just used Christmas
ATC Tag Builder - I used part of the set to create the 'froth'
Lowercase Alphabet Plate Die
