Happy Tuesday! Happy preview time for a new release from The Craft's Meow :)
Brace yourselves, there's a total of 6 fabulous new sets to be released on April 21st so I'll be stickin' around here all week to give you as many sneaky peeks as possible!
First up, we're showing a gorgeous set called, Nature's Beauty. A set that really is beautiful and could cater for a number of occasions:
I was really taken by the large silhouette stamp in this set and was inspired to play with my heat gun for this card. I firstly stamped text along the bottom half of a white panel of card then stamped and embossed both the silhouette and sentiment with clear ink and embossing powder. Then I sponged black ink all over the card and wiped clean with a tissue (the black ink resists the embossed image and sentiment). I simply finished off with satin ribbon and mounted on to a white card base.
Next up is cool, graphic set called Travel Time. This set fills in a gap in my stamp collection, and is appealing to both card-makers and scrapbookers alike!
I just knew that I had some air-mail envelopes hiding in my crafty space and trimmed one down to create the main panel of this card. A match made in Crafty Heaven methinks!
Oh I wish I could show you more today, but you'll have to come back tomorrow *wink*
In the meantime, why not check out what the rest of the TCM DT created with these sets? You won't be disappointed!

Oh wow! These are gorgeous but I LOVE the first one, I definitely think I'll try that technique and hope it comes out half a fab as this!

Hi Aimes! The technique you used on the first card is so elegant. So glad you explained how you achieved the look—I was trying to figure it. LOVE the clean open feel of the airmail card!
Both fabulous cards Aimes.... that air mail envelope idea is FAB!

That first card is just stunning. GORGEOUS! Great technique, and love how CAS the second card is and how clever of you to use the actual envelope edge.
WOW! the simple "air mail" card is great! & I love the black & white floral card!
Fabulous card. Really love the first one. Love the embossing and inking with black ink.
Wow what an amazing effect, I love the text on the flowers silhouette and the airmail envie is just perfect too :0)

Stunning the first card!
I love the text background used with the clear embossing! Fabby idea!! And, the airmail envie is perfect with that plane! Great job!!
I ADORE the black and white design of that first card. I was actually thinking B&W would be a fabulous take for that set : )
The second card is absolutely perfect..give that 'airmail' feel x
I love how you did the floral silhouettes. Awesome idea adding the text background. Also love how you did the Bon Voyage card.
Gorgeous first card! Love the printed silhouette. Thanks for the details on how you made it. Great Bon Voyage card too!
Hi Aimes! Gorgeous designs and I LOVE that text/silhouette card.....I'm going to have to try that technique soon! Thanks for all your sweet comments last month....I miss designing for TCM! Hugs!
One word: GORGEOUS! I love the text embossing on the first won. Jaw dropping Aimes!
Great technique and look on that first card, Amy! Love e simple and classic style of the second also! Great working along side you girls this week!!
WOWO!! =) I LOVE your creations!! THANKS for sharing and have a FABULOUS WEEK!! =)
Love the striking black/white. That stamp is perfect for it. Saw another of yours, this style, in PC no? Way to go.
Love the text peeking out from behind those silhouetted flowers, Aimes!
I was trying to figure out how you did that first card, Duchess, and you are always so kind to share your stamping magic tricks with us :) Although, I still think you have true magic in your hands ;) That envelope is perfect for travel cards...looks like a fun set :)
