After 4 long months of waiting, I finally got my pre-ordered Nestabilities!!! And that was today!!! I pre-ordered three of them, but I got only two. But that's ok because I like the thought that I'm still expecting some happy mail. I still have yet to receive Shapeabilities Nested Bird.
As you can see on the pic, I ordered from 7 Kids College Fund. I like this online store because I find their prices reasonable, and the service is really good. My first order from them was the Scor-Pal and I love it to the max!
The ones I got are the Labels 1 and Labels 2 dies. I fell in love with them the first time I saw them in the official website. Also, their packaging is new, and this time, it comes with complete instructions on how you can use these dies with all the other die cut machines currently available.
I just had to make cards with these new additions to my non-surprisingly chaotic planet. I promised Claire that I will send her some of my card creations, and I figured these cards would be a good start.
For my first card, I used Labels 1 and a bunch of leftover paper. I also got to use Cuttlebug Script embossing folder, another recent purchase from the newly opened Joann's about an hour away. All the cardstock, bg paper and ribbon are from my leftover stash. The flower image is CTMH. I stamped first with a lighter color, then a darker color. After that, I stamped again, this time in prep for embossing. As for the flower center, I adhered it with pop-up glue dots, then accentuated with purple Stickles. I love how the flower turned out to be!
For this next card, I played with my Labels 2, along with oval scalloped Nesties. I don't know why, but I'm in love with sheer ribbon lately. The stamp is by Heidi Grace and the eyelets are by Stampin' Up.
I was so happy on my first run of these new dies in my Big Shot Machine. I must say that it was worth the wait.
I hope Claire likes these cards.
And I love my new Nesties!
