In no particular order, here are my favorites from the sale:
1. Nesting Postage Collage Die (and coordinating Nesting Postage Collage Blocks Stencil and Nesting Postage Collage Stamp Set)
I love all things postage on cards. The original Postage Collage Die and all the fabulous coordinating products will always have a special place in my crafty heart. But I also love the larger format of the Nesting Postage Collage products. I have included some of the basics here because I love how versatile they are! Use any stencil, stamp, or die cut images on the of the larger format postage stamp and I find the shape instantly adds more fun and whimsy to your design.
For me, a good cloud stencil is a simple but perfect staple for the craft room. I love adding cloud backgrounds in large or small amounts on cards. They can be done in monochromatic shades of gray or blue, or done in colorful rainbows (like in my card above). I love them all! And the price on this makes it hard to pass up!
I love having a versatile alphabet die set. This is one of my very favorites because it is small enough to be able to spell out words that are more than 3 letters, but bold enough to still have an impact. Plus, it has duplicates of A, E, and L since they are such commonly used letters, which comes in very handy.
4. 4×4 Grip Mat
This small grip mat lives sticking on the side of my diecut machine on my desk. To use it, I just pull it off and stick in on my glass work mat. I use it ALL the time for ink blending on small die cuts either to color them or add shading. If it gets dusty I wipe it off with a baby wipe and it is good to go. I didn’t know how much I would use this until I had it and now I can’t imagine crafting without it.
If you’re like me, you have lots of booklovers in your life. This die makes such cute cards that are easily customizable in the recipient’s favorite colors (thanks to the coordinating stencil). I love that cards with books work great for so many occasions–birthdays, holidays, thanks, and thinking of you! This is another set I have gotten out several times to make cards and I know it will get more use!
This is one of my all time favorite sentiment stamp sets. The font is perfectly scripty without being too fancy. The variety of sentiments means there is something for every occasion. Also, the price (especially on sale) can’t be beat! This is another set that I use time and time again. I love it and I think you would too!
7. A2 Piercing Layers Die (and Additional A2 Piercing Layers Die)
These die sets are a great way to level up your basic A2 Rectangle Layering Dies. I love the tiny dotted border detail that they add. That little extra detail adds that special something that only homemade cards can have. And while I love a stitched detail, something about the pierced dots feels a little more modern to me. This is another staple in my craft room.
I love this background for Christmas or winter cards. If you are looking to make quick and beautiful cards for the holidays, this set is for you! I like to add glitter paper behind it so there is a little sparkle peeking out behind the holly leaves. Pair it with any holiday sentiment and you are all set. This die would also create a beautiful background if you just used it to emboss your paper and then added additional diets or color images on top. For me, this is a Christmas cardmaking favorite!
I love the mix of print and script on this die set! It has a shadow die too (though I didn’t use it for this particular card). “Just a note” cards are so great to have on hand because they can metamorphose into whatever type of card you need depending on the message you put inside!
10. Nesting Piercing Ticket Frames
I love the shape of these frames and just like with the A2 Piercing Layers Die, I love the piercing details. I like that frames add that little extra detail that elevates a card. I also find them a great way to anchor florals. If you have a hard time arranging florals, put some in the corner (or two) of a frame die and it always seems to work.
Do you ever find that you need a beautiful background but don’t have a lot of time to create? This stencil set has got you covered. It even has color suggestions etched on it to take out any guesswork for those days when even picking colors feels hard. And florals are fabulous because they work for any occasion–birthday, thinking of you, sympathy, wedding, or whatever else you might need a card for. This stencil works great as a background for dies or you can simply slap on a sentiment and send it out!
12. Inquisitive Seagulls Die, Stamp Set, and the Inquisitive Pirate Add-On Die)
I fell in love with these seagulls the first time I laid on eyes on them. They are so cute and hilarious. And I love the coordinating stamps. I couldn’t think of any way to make them better but somehow adding a pirate hat just adds to the quirkiness. These two sets of dies are just so much fun!
