Snail Mail Cards with Ana and Christy

Hello crafty friends! It’s Ana here today sharing a heart shaped card featuring super adorable Snail Mail stamps and coordinating dies, part of the new spring release! I just adore that little snail so much and really wanted to create a love message I can send to someone special.

After stamping the images from Snail Mail stamp set, I colored them with Copic markers and cut them with coordinating dies.

I used the largest die from Stitched Heart dies (currently on sale) to create the card base and the background. That beautiful scene is from Spring Fling paper pack and it created an instant spring scene!

I adhered the images to the background with liquid glue, then stamped the sentiment with black ink.

I love how adorable and sweet this card turned out; I am in love with that sweet little snail!

Hey friends, it's Christy here with a card using our adorable new mini set Snail Mail! I wanted to add an extra critter into my little scene, so I pulled one of the adorable Harvest Mice. I love the way his hands are reaching up, making him perfect for holding the letter. I colored all the images with Copics and trimmed them out with the matching dies.

For my focal panel, I cut out the cloud print from the Summer Splash 6x6 pack with the Stitched Arch, flipping it on its side for a fun twist. I layered two grass borders over the top using Slimline Nature Borders in a lighter green and darker green cardstock. Because the panel was a bit too long to fit across my card front, I trimmed down the left side with the outer die from Frilly Frames Quatrefoil so that I could keep the stitching going all the way around. I stamped a sentiment in black in the top right and adhered my images.

For the card base, I used a dark gray cardstock and stamped the letter and the three hearts all over in a matching ink for a subtle tone on tone effect. Then I adhered my focal panel and finished off the card with a little Stickles glitter glue.

Snail Mail Cards with Leanne and Isha

Hello everyone, Leanne here! I have a bright and cheerful card to share that features images from a cute new set called Snail Mail. I think this is a must have little set for any card maker.

I have combined the images from Snail Mail with elements from some older stamp sets so this card is a true mix and match design. First I stamped gingham borders on a panel of white card stock that's cut slightly smaller than A2 size. This gingham stamp comes from the Background Basics set. Next, I masked off the gingham to ink blend the background for the scene. I Copic colored all the images to make a spring scene. The mailbox, snail, and hearts are from Snail Mail. The tulips are from Easter Wishes.  

I pulled sentiments from two stamp sets to create the very appropriate greeting. The first part, a little snail mail, is from Backyard Bugs. The second part, for you, is from Over the Rainbow. Lastly I added skinny strips of dark grey card stock to frame in the scene and then adhered the finished panel to an A2 white card base.

Hello everyone, Isha here with a CAS card using masking technique. Today, I am featuring the Snail Mail stamp and dies.

I started by die-cutting a circle onto a masking paper. Adhere it to a white layer. Die-cut the clouds and grass onto white card using the Slimline Nature Border dies. Sponge distress ink using these die-cut stencils. Remove the mask.

Stamp the images from the Snail Mail stamps using alcohol friendly ink and color using Copic markers. Die-cut using the coordinating dies. Die-cut a heart using the dies in the die set.

Adhere the images using 3d foam and liquid glue for various dimensions. Stamp the sentiment and adhere the heart. To finish, I applied spectrum noir clear sparkle to the letters.

Wishing you a happy new year and a wonderful year ahead. Thanks for stopping by!

Snail Mail Cards with Ashley and Mayra

Hi friends! It's Ashley with a card featuring the brand new mini set Snail Mail! This set is perfect for sending happy mail to all those people you miss but can't yet see in person. I combined it with some scenic patterned paper to make a quick, but beautiful scene!

For my background, I trimmed a piece of Spring Fling scene paper to A2 size. I added a white frame using the Frilly Frames Herringbone die to add an extra touch. I then added my sentiment. I used a sentiment stamp from Sending Sunshine and made the rest of the phrase myself from black cardstock using the Loopy Letters dies. They are my absolute favorite for large custom sentiments!

I stamped the snail, letter, and mailbox from Snail Mail along with the bees from Just Bee-cause on white cardstock with Lawn Fawn Jet Black ink. I colored them with Copics and added a few white highlights with a gel pen before cutting them out with the matching dies. I adhered the images to my card with foam tape to pop them up from the background and sentiment for extra interest.

Thank you so much for stopping by! Have a wonderful day and a happy new year!

Hello everyone!!! Happy Monday. Mayra here with you today. I have this sweet card to share with you. I used the cute Snail Mail stamp set. 

I began my card by coloring the sweet images from the stamp set, I also used the heart-shaped cookie cutter from the adorable Christmas Cookies mini stamp set. I hope you were able to get this sweet set. I used the cookie cutter heart as a decoration for the mailbox. 

After coloring my images I die-cut the layers I would be using for my card. I used the grassy hill from the Slimline Nature Borders die set. I used the lovely eyelet laced layer from the Frilly Frames Eyelet Lace die set. I added a bit of color to this die-cut layer, using Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide ink. I then layered it over a pink panel so the pink would peek through the eyelet lace layer. Next, I die cut an oval from the top panel I would be using. I used the Stitched Oval dies, and the Fancy Frames Oval dies to layer over the opening. 

To finish my card I stamped the sentiment using black ink onto the top panel. I hope you enjoy the card I created to share with you. Thank you very much for taking the time to stop by. I hope you each have a wonderful and blessed day.

Introducing New Snail Mail Mini Stamps

Hello there!  I hope you all had a wonderful holiday week! We are switching gears and transitioning from Christmas to Spring this week featuring a new mini love inspired set called Snail Mail.

Card No.1: For my first card I started by creating a chevron striped background alternating red, pink and aqua stripes cut using our Ric Rac Border dies, using a clear ruler to keep them straight and centered on my card. I then cut two stitched circle mats (using dies that will be shared more next week) together with the grassy border from our Slimline Nature Border Dies. I colored the mailbox, snails and love letters with Copics from the new Snail Mail stamps. For my "love you" sentiment, I used a stamp from our Savanna Safari Stamps and mounted them onto a thought bubble from our Comic Strip Speech Bubbles dies.

Card No.2:  For my next card I just focused on the mailbox from the Snail Mail stamps, pairing it with the polar bear & "I love you" greeting from our Playful Polar Bear Stamps and the snow drift from the Slimline Nature Border dies. I inked behind them with some Picked Raspberry Distress ink and then framed my little scene using our Fancy Frame Square Dies which I die-cut from red cardstock. 

For my background I stamped our Cascading Heart Stamps first in pink and then offset my paper and stamped them with a second series in red. As a final touch I added the stitching to the edge of my card panel using our Slimline Basic Border dies and a small scalloped edge cut from our Classic Gingham Paper.

Here's a closer look at the new Snail Mail stamps and Snail Mail dies. While these are available in our store now, the rest of our Spring Release will be shared with our Sneak Peek Week next week and available to purchase on January 8th.

I hope you will check back each day this week to see more fun ideas using this cute set by the rest of the team. :)
