Waffle Flower November Release and blog hop

Welcome to Waffle Flower’s November 2021 Release Day! I’m happy to be hopping with the folks from Waffle Flower to show you all the fun new stuff awaiting you on the Waffle Flower website! This month, we’re brining you some fun floral dies and special wrappers! Be sure to check out each stop in today’s blog hop for fun, inspiration, and chances to win some of these new release goodies! My first project features the Small Bouquet Combo:

I created a backdrop for these bouquets using the Stitched Diamond Panel die and the Triple Line Diamond Panel die. I cut out the front panel with the Oval Embroidory Hoops die using gold foil cardstock and added some white stems from the recently released Stems dies.

Next I gold heat embossed the main bouquet stamp from this set and colored it with Tombow Dual Brush Markers. Lastly I added the sentiment from the Postcard Stamp Set.
Mu next project features the Special Delivery Die set. I used one of the dies from this set to create this fun wrapping paper bag:

I used kraft cardtock and darkened the edges a bit with Distress Vintage Photo Ink. I used once more the bouquet from the Small Bouquet Set and colored it with Tombow Dual Brush Markers too.

I added some Stems to this bouquet and placed it on top of a background I created with the Sunburst Panel Die.
I love, love, love the Stems Die set so I went a little bit overboard and made a few cards with it:

This is a very straight forward design. I really like to add dimension to my projects so I cut out a panel with the A2 Lacy Layers dies and then dry emboss it with the Stitched Panel Flower die. I sprayed several stems with Dina Wakley Gloss Sprays and arranged them into one of the jars from the Special Delivery Die Set .

This is a very similiar design, I just changed the colors of my Gloss Sprays and used another Jar. I thought a kraft base would add some interest to the project.
My next projects feature the Oversized Thank you die:

For this project I white heat embossed one of the images from the Small Bouquet Die set and stacked them on top of the Sunburst Panel Die. I stacked three die cut pieces of the Thank You die (one of them in Silver Glitter Cardstock) and embossed the same flowers of the background on the top layer with Hero Arts Satin Pearl Embossing Powder.

This is another version of the previous design. For this Project I dry embossed the background with the Tiny Dot Stencil and Stamped the images on different colors...

For this design I used my all time favorite technique: emboss resist. I just white heat embossed the main bouquet image from the Small Bouquet set and then ink blended the background in a rainbow order.

I also stacked several pieces of the Thanks die and overlapped it a bit so the glitter cardstock of one of the layers would show.

This is another take on the Thanks die. Again I used Dina Wakley Gloss Sprays to color this beautiful flower from the set Stems die. Once they were dry, I ink blended the edges of an A2 panel and placed the stems on top following the same color scheme.

For my last project I just glued some leftovers flowers and then used the inlay technique to achive some dimension. I die cut the Thank you die and added a layer of black glitter cardstock for some contrast.
Hope I have inspired you to create and be sure to check out each stop in today’s blog hop for fun, inspiration, and chances to win some of these new release goodies!
