More Beautiful Blessings Box Samples!!!!

Hi, everyone!  I have had so much fun with the January Blessings Box bundle and add-on bookmark paper pads! To find out about the quarterly subscription bundles from Divinity Designs LLC, please visit the website HERE!


My first sample for today is a card with four coordinating bookmarks. Two of the bookmarks feature the Hummingbird Bookmarks paper collection; the other two bookmarks were created with window sheets colored with alcohol inks and die cut with the Hummingbird Bookmarks Dies. Ivory pearl cardstock was used for the layers.  The Flourishes Embossing Folder was used for the pocket layers and for the back sides of the bookmarks.


 

Next up is a birthday card created for my aunt which features the Vintage Roses Bookmarks, along with the Mini Slimline Pierced Windows Die, Happy Birthday with Layers Dies set, and the Mini Slimline Card Base.


My next sample features another beautiful pattern from the Hummingbird Bookmarks paper collection, along with a coordinating panel from the Watercolor Paper Pad.  The curve was cut with the Leafy Edge Border Dies set; the card base was cut with the Mini Slimline Card Base Die.  The sentiment is from the Bold Blessings Stamp/Die Duo set. 


Next is a keychain which I picked up at JoAnn's years ago.  The insert pops out and I added one of the gorgeous hummingbirds from the bookmark papers.  The opposite side is a leftover piece of the alcohol inks from my first card in the post.


For my next sample, I did a little experimenting with Shrink Plastic and the plain bookmark die from the Hummingbird Bookmark Dies. Alcohol inks were added to the plastic sheet, then the scripture from the Bookmark Scriptures set was stamped in Stazon Jet Black.  After shrinking with my heat tool, the "charm" was a little wavy but I think it's cool!  


I saved my favorite for last, a birthday card for my Mom. The scripture from Bookmark Scriptures was stamped over a background which was created with the Fancy Fans Mixed Media Stencil and Blending Brushes. Other products used here were the Hummingbird Bookmarks papers, Pierced Rectangles, Matting Rectangle, A2 Portrait Card Base with Layer; the Hummingbird Bookmarks Die was used to cut the image panel; once the bookmark is cut, I turned the die around and cut the tab off of the top by partially die-cutting just the end.

 

Thanks for visiting with me!

Happy 17th Anniversary to Divinity Designs LLC!

Hi, everyone!  Today is the 17th Anniversary for Divinity Designs LLC!  Wow, the years have flown by!  I am blessed to have been on the design team for 16-1/2 of those 17 years!  Kelley has released a beautiful new stamp set for the occasion along with four amazing flower die sets....I am having a blast so far creating with them!  Check out all of the designer samples, sale info, and new products HERE on the website or HERE on Instagram.


 

Earlier month, the Birthday Bird of the Month set for March was released, however, the US postal service did not delivery my package on time and I had to miss out.  So, my sample for today features the beautiful Robin image from that set, along with my favorite scripture verse from the new anniversary set, Live By Faith.  I created the background with the Wrinkle Free Distress Technique since I wanted to match the robin eggs from the image.

 

My next sample features the Daffodils die set and a sentiment from Live By Faith.  The planter was created with a  layer die from the Mini Card and Layers Dies set; an Oval Die was used to cut the vellum sentiment layer; the background paper is from Spring Flowers Collection 2019 Paper Pad.

 

I had fun with the Tulips die set on the next sample, trying to create matching tulips with those on the designer paper; the tulip blossoms were cut from white, then lightly water-colored with gray.  The fence die was a perfect embellishment, popped up with Foam Mounting Tape.  A Scalloped Circle cut from vellum, with a white circle underneath was a subtle and soft way to present the beautiful sentiment from Live By Faith.

 

Lastly, the Lily of the Valley die set was paired with another fun pattern from the Spring Flower Collection 2019 paper pad, the Fence Die, and a wonderful scripture from Live By Faith.  The sentiment was stamped onto white vellum since I wanted the designer paper to show through.  Oval dies were used to cut the frame.

 

Thanks for celebrating with us!!

Blessings,

Divinity Designs LLC Blessings Box - New Project Samples!

Hi, everyone!  I hope you are enjoying the January Blessings Box goodies from Divinity Designs LLC!  Today we are sharing new samples.....check out all of the photos and Blessings Box info HERE or on Instagram HERE!


My first sample for today I paired the Blessings Box goodies (and Book Lovers Bookmarks add-on) with the Perk Up Stamp/Die Duo and letters from the Letter Board Die set. The scripture verses were gold embossed on the back of each bookmark to coordinate with the gold foil cardstock layers.


 

Next is a sample which shows the bookmark papers in another creative way.  I love sharing how versatile each product is.  The Vintage Rose Bookmarks made fantastic layers for the Triple Step Landscape with Layers card.  Also featured is the Twas Grace stamp set and Amazing Grace with Layers Dies.


Next up is a cheerful card which uses three of the Spring Flowers Bookmarks with the A2 Pierced Triple Window Die and a sentiment from the Birthday Bird of the Month set from February.


My last sample for today features the Hummingbird Bookmarks Dies (withe the bookmark top cut off), layered onto one of the Spring Flower Bookmarks, plus one of the Bookmark Scriptures.

 

Thanks for visiting!!

Blessings,

Divinity Designs LLC - January 2025 Blessings Box!

Hi, everyone! I am so excited to share the new Blessings Box from Divinity Designs LLC! If you are not familiar, the Blessings Box is a quarterly subscription which helps you save a lot of money! Check out all of the details HERE! There are two die sets, one amazing stamp set, two fabulous Bookmarks paper pads, plus three additional add-on Bookmark paper pads as well!  I had a blast creating samples with these and can't wait to create the next set of samples for the February post!
The following Bookmarks are coordinating add-on products:
My first sample today features the Double Diagonal Pockets Dies, the Cross Bookmarks Paper Pad, and the plain bookmark die from the Hummingbird Bookmarks Dies set.  The layered pocket panels were embossed with the Fish Embossing Folder.  I forgot to take a photo, but the underside of the bookmarks also have the navy embossed cardstock.  Other items used for this card: A2 Portrait Card Base with Layer Dies, Faith Cross Layering Combo Dies, and Foam Mounting Tape.
Next is a trio of bookmarks cut out of foil cardstock with the Hummingbird Bookmarks Dies set.  Adhesive sheets were added to the foil cardstock before die-cutting, which made it so easy to adhere to the background scenes from the Cross Bookmarks Paper Pad.
My next sample features the Spring Flowers Bookmarks Paper Pad, along with the Thinking of You and Layers Dies, the A2 Pierced Triple Window Die, Matting Rectangle, A2 Landscape Card Base with Layer, and Foam Mounting Tape.
Here is another set of bookmarks created with the Bookmarks Scriptures stamp set, the Spring Flowers Bookmarks Paper Pad, and the Hummingbird Bookmarks Dies set.  The scriptures were heat embossed with Rose Gold Embossing Powder on white vellum and attached to the tulip bookmarks with adhesive sheets before cutting them with the die.  This photo is one of at least twenty tries.....very tough to photograph! :)
Last but not least is another card featuring the Double Diagonal Pockets Dies, the Hummingbird Bookmarks Paper Pad, Hummingbird Bookmarks Dies, along with the A2 Portrait Card Base with Layer Dies set and the Happy Birthday with Layers Dies.  The Watercolor Paper Pad was used for the pocket layers since they coordinated with the bookmark colors so well!  Each bookmark has a scripture on the back.

Thanks for stopping by!
