Dot & Whimsy

As I posted last week, there is a new place in town and it's all about dies:

Come on by and check out all of the amazing and must-have steel-rule & wafer thin dies!

And here are the projects that I created for the launch!

(click on each to enlarge)

"Ho Ho Ho!" Hanger was made using the Reflection Album #1 Die  

This die is one of their steel-rule dies; there are several other designs available too!

 "Country Livin'" mini album was made using the Mason Jar Album Die and Finishers Die Set.

Again, the album die is steel rule and the Finishers set are the wafer thin dies.

On the inner page, I used one of the wafer thin Cherish Doilies & Tag Set...if you

love paper doilies, then you will love this little collection!

 I've always wanted a die like this Onesie Card (A2) Die!  

This is another of the steel rule dies...just make sure you have a crease pad on

hand before setting out to make this type of card.

All of the cute accents can be found in the Onesie Card Finishers Die Set, which

is a wafer-thin die set.  You will also see another one of the dies from the Cherish Doilies!

And I love ornament dies...you can do so many things with them:

package tags, ornaments, garlands and of course cards!

There are a couple of different sets available...this card uses the

Happy Saturday, everyone!

My sweet friend, Danni Reid created this sketch over at October Afternoon.  Having just received the last bit of embellishments from the Holiday Style collection, I just had to use it to scrap a layout based on her sketch!

 I'm in so much W-A-N-T of the upcoming OA paperlines...oye, I can't even tell you how much I want and NEED them in my little hands! Cake Walk and 9 to 5...have you seen them yet?

I know, right?  I was gasping too!

Lots and lots of orders for crepe fringe from Dot & Whimsy. I don't know for sure, but I think the little peek in Simply Handmade magazine may have something to do with this influx of orders...yay!  So I'm out of here a little early this evening before work to pick up some rolls of pink and a few new colors of crepe paper.

Don't forget about the

going on here at The Papered Cottage through Friday, January 27th!

Just check in here to leave a comment and be in the running for a really sweet prize pack :)

Have a wonderful week!
