Just For You- The Craft's Meow Sneak Peaks

Hey my friend!  I am so excited about today, know why?  It is time for the sneak peaks for the first set being released at The Craft's Meow!  You probably hopped your way here from Kim's blog, if not be sure to head over to TCM's blog to see what all of this is about!  These stamps are so lovely and I can't say enough about them!  I mean what's not to love when they were designed by none other that Nina Bracket!  So let's check out the first set, Simply Delightful...


For my project today, I was inspired by the sweet little sentiment Just for you, thinking it would be perfect for a gift tag!


Die cut a tag, covered it with Spun Sugar Distress Ink, stamped the doily image onto the background, stamped my flower twice, colored it and cut it out, popped it up.  Stamped my sentiment in Walnut Distress ink and inked the edges of the tag.


Adhered patterned paper from the 6x6 pack Emma's Shoppe collection (which Lisa has in her shop), border punched four strips and adhered those to my patterned paper panel on top and bottom.


Tied around a ribbon and secured the panel to my kraft bag.

Here is some more info for you so you can enjoy the hop along with winning some of the fabulous stamp sets that will be available May 1st!

"A release this exciting needs LOTS of prizes to celebrate, and LOTS of prizes are what we have for you! Each day of previews there will be not one, not two, but THREE prizes up for grabs!!! Today's prize offerings are:



Simply Delightful Stamp Set (being showcased today)


A My Mind's Eye Hazel 6 x 6 paper pad from the Stella & Rose collection


A My Mind's Eye Gertie 6 x 6 paper pad from the Stella & Rose collection


The prizes will be awarded based on random drawing from the comments left on THREE of the Team blogs listed below! You won't know whose blog has the prize... neither do I, actually, until I draw from a hat...so you'll want to leave a comment on each blog for more chances to win. But please play fair... only ONE comment per blog!
You have until 11:00 pm Pacific tonight (April 28th) to make the rounds! The winners will be announced in tomorrow's post.

Here is a list of my fellow DT members.  Enjoy your first looks at Simply Delightful!!!











Make sure you hop on over to see what the lovely Nina has for you!  Thank you for stopping by!  Have a great day!
