My first projects feature the newly released Layered Scallop Tag Dies along with some previously released stamp sets. These tags have multiple sizes, making them perfect for most images. The first picture shows some of the smaller sized tags combined with the Festive Elephants Stamp Set. The other dies showcase the larger sized tag dies featuring the Cozy Together, Warm Heart, Merry and Sweet, and Koala-ty Birthday Stamp Sets.

My second group of projects feature the gorgeous new Eyelet Layer Frames Dies along with the Cozy in the Cold Stamp Set. My large snowman card showcases the Eyelet Layer Frames Dies along with the adorable new Stitching Snowman Die. I absolutely love these new layering dies! The stitches around the eyelets are so eye-catching and add beautiful detail to your cards. They pair well with just about anything, and I feel that they are a “must-have” in your collection.

Thanks so much for taking the time to drop by! I hope you are enjoying this release as much as I have been!
Your artistry always wows me!
You are so kind, Isabel; thank you! 🥰
Your tags and cards are all wonderful and your coloring is perfect. If you could only see me enlarging the images and craning my neck to see what Copic colors you used!
Aww, lol! I’m so sorry! I usually list all the colors I use, but I figured it would be too long this time. However, I’d be more than happy to send you a list of them if you want to let me know which project(s) you are interested in knowing the colors! (You can email me at rachelalvaradodesigns@gmail.com) ☺️
Your coloring is superb! These cards (and tag) are so gorgeous! Love them! TFS!
Thank you so much, Carol! 🩷
Wonderful variety of creations and coloring talent that is awesome (I need more practice).
Wow, you have been busy in a fun and creative way. Your tags are adorable and would look wonderful tied on a gift ready for giving. Your cards are all adorable. I LOVE Snowmen, they are quirky and add so much to holiday and winter cards. You gave us 4 snowmen cards and each one is different than the others. The new eyelet layering frame dies were a great accompaniment with the adorable little snowmen. Your first three snowmen cards that share similar snowmen would be wonderful to frame for winter and the holiday decor.
Snowmen!!!! Love, Love, Love!
