Sweet Spring Basket Die Set - Tonic Studios Launch

Happy Thursday!

I'm back with another versatile gift box launch from Tonic Studios of the Sweet Spring Basket Die Set.  My affiliate links are here, with thanks:

I really enjoyed creating with this set.  My first creation was of this Easter basket and I love how it turned out.  You could have the eggs opening but I decided to keep them closed as I made my basket open so you could fill it with lots of Easter goodies of your choice!

I decorated my basket with papers from the A Pastel Parade from the last Craft Kit and I added flowers to the handle with Nuvo drop centres.

I added ribbon to the lid so I could prise it open easily.

For my second creation I opted to make a crate and used paper to weave through the gaps in the basket.  I made carrots and a parsnip to go in my crate and I just love the 'Keep Calm And Carrot On' sign, don't you?

See you again soon,

Showering You With Love - Tonic Studios Launch

Happy Thursday!

Today I'm sharing the launch of the Showering You With Love Die Set which can be used as a decorative piece or a gift box.  My affiliate links with thanks:

This is such a beautiful die set and makes the most wonderful creations!

My first creation was one I created for a baby shower - I think the colour gives away the gender and as I have 2 boys so opted for blue!  I added ink to the edges of my flowers and Nuvo drops to the centres.

For my next creation I made a happy gift box full of chocolate!  I used the Spring Has Sprung paper pad for this as I love the bright colours and used those colours as inspiration for the flowers inside the umbrella.

See you again soon,

This month's Craft Kit is Easter/Spring themed and you can make a lovely little gift set.

The Easter basket is so easy to put together and there are many elements to decorate it.  I used die cuts from the Kit together with the sentiment which I cut out from one of the papers in the 8"x8" paper pad from the Kit.  I filled my basket with chocolate as they were what I had in the house but of course to make it a true Easter basket you could add Easter eggs!

For my second creation I decided to make a card using the cute stamp set and adding die cuts and papers from the Kit to embellish.

I hope to see you again soon,

Spring Has Sprung Collection - Tonic Studios Launch

Happy Friday!

A brand new collection has just launched from Tonic Studios called Spring Has Sprung and it's perfect for the upcoming season.  My affiliate links with thanks:

UK: HERE

USA: HERE

A bright and cheerful collection which comprises of 12"x12" (complete with a sticker sheet) and 8"x8" paper pads, transfer sheets, a die set and 2 embossing folders.

For my first card I made a fancy fold that shows off the papers and elements really well.

For my second card I used the embossing folder to make my own embellishments and used the die cut bicycle which is so cute!  You can see how large the sticker elements are from the 12x12 paper pad as this card is 8"x8".

A beautiful collection which I really enjoyed playing with.

See you again soon,

Beautiful Bridal Bandstand Gift Box - Tonic Studios Launch

Happy New Year!

An exciting first post of the year sees a brand new release from Tonic Studios of the Beautiful Bridal Bandstand Gift Box.  My affiliate links, at no cost to you, with thanks:

This is a fabulous die set fit for so many occasions.  From the name you can guess it is perfect for weddings and my first creation shows this.  I have used the Frosted Rose papers for this one.  It has a base that opens for you to add gifts and you can make multiple bases if you choose to.

Next, I made an aviary themed lantern using the Aqua Medley ephemera pack to add highlights.

Here you can see how it opens to add your gifts or a tea light.

For my final creation I made a Moroccan themed lantern using the iridescent miri card and Nuvo glitter. 

These were such a joy to create and decorate.

See you again soon,

Sweet Honeypot Die Set - Tonic Studios Launch

Happy Boxing Day!

I hope you've all been having a good break over the festive season.  We've all been having turns with coughs and colds in our household as it seems to be the time of year for them.

On a positive note, there is a lovely new launch from Tonic Studios today of the Sweet Honeypot Die Set.  My affiliate links at no cost to you are here:

UK: HERE

USA: HERE

The Honeypot is really easy to put together and makes a good size gift box.  There are elements to embellish it with including a tag, bees and die cuts for the sides too.

I opted to decorate mine with bee themed papers and flowers from another Tonic Studios die set.  I coloured the bees in with Nuvo alcohol markers.

See you in the New Year!

The Craft Kit this month has dies to make both cards and a cute heart shaped gift box too!

The gift box is really easy to put together and I used the Frosted Rose paper pad and added the adhesive foil sheets from the kit to it then embellished with the Nuvo Dream Drops.

I just had to use the hearts and foil adhesive sheets to make love heart sweets!  I made a faux shaker and added a rose gold frame around it.  

There are so many different dies in the set and it really is a very versatile kit.

This will be my last blog post until after Christmas so I wanted to wish those of you celebrating a very Merry Christmas!

Enjoy the break,

Shabneez
