Hello & Happy Thursday,

Welcome to Day 3 and the final day of the January 2023 Release Introductions.

Today I have two products to introduce. First, a mini clear stamp set called Mid Century Modern Purrfect Day. And a Stencil – MOD Background Builders Circles. Now if you watched me on How To Craft Network back in November 2022, you might recognise the stencil from my show then. 

Let’s have a look at them in action.

The Stencil – MOD Background Builder Circles is designed just like the previously released Stencil – MOD Background Builder. In that it can be a single focal point, or it can easily be repositioned to fill an entire background.

As you can see for this first card I have used it as a focal point backdrop for my Mid Century Modern kitty from Purrfect Day.

I decided to colour the outline kitty with a dark grey Copic Marker and matched his eyes to the sorbet colour of my background. The sentiment is from Simply Said Blocks.

For my second card I used both the stencil and stamp set again to create a little scene.

This took a bit of patience and masking to stack the bowls and then mask again to stamp the cat and stencil the mat underneath. But I think it turned out pretty well.

As you know I like to pack in little elements that will provide creative opportunities and the stencil has 4 individual elements in the corners. Of which I used to create the stacked bowls. The detail stamped on the bowls is from Mid Century Modern Florals. The brown mat is created using a partial ink of one of the shapes from the Stencil Mid Century Modern Shapes.

I kept my card sentiment free and added to the wonky stacking by adding a dark grey die cut behind the focal image and then foam mounted to my base card.

That’s all the purrfect inspiration from me today!

Be sure to check out each of the Brand Ambassador blogs or social media for more inspiration and leave some love. You can find links HERE.

That’s all the introductions, which means tomorrow is Release Day! Myself and the Brand Ambassadors will be back tomorrow with more to share and all the products will be available at 10am GMT on the website.

Hope to see you!
