...Introducing - You're Lovely and Flourishes - Scallops and Dots


ED - my apologies, this post was scheduled, but for some reason it didn't go up on time! sorry it's so late!

Good Morning! hope it's a good one for you! My wee folk officially start their summer holiday today and so I'm hoping for a lie in....

Today is my chance to show you some more of the sets we have releasing tomorrow! I jumped the gun on my poor DT ladies and let my Eat Cake out of the bag a day early yesterday - the girls will show you their baking skills today, here is a wee linklist so you can go see what they baked up!







My first card today shows the main dress form image from a fancy little set called You're Lovely - I adore this dress. I love the clean and simple styling that leaves it wide open to so many applications - weddings, proms, or formals as they are in UK, parties etc.

I fitted the dress onto a wireform, I love that vintage dressmaker notion, but I wanted to make it an image that you could use on many different types of cards and so I moved away from a reproduction of an antique dress form to a cleaner, more timeless design.

Perfectly suited to vintage or modern, I love it. On my first card above, I paper pieced the dress, and then I stamped one of the extra bodice pieces on top of the paper piecing. You can see the bodice is stamped in black and has a little dotted detailing recalling the boned contours of a vintage corset. I used copics to colour the skirt. I trimmed out the dress with a Labels 11 die shape (Spellbinders) and sponged the edges with a yellow gold before removing the die cut from the die.

Then I stamped a little flower motif all around to add some background interest. The final touch to the dress was a little flower, worn on the hip. - The sentiment is also from You're Lovely and is stamped in coral. to complement the flower. A little satin coral ribbon runs up the edge of the panel.

Can you see the Flourishes, on the dp paper? I silver embossed them, so that it would pick up on the silver of the little vintage style hair clips that I intended to give with this card. I picked the card colours to match the resin roses on the clips, such a dainty little treat!


 I used the same sentiment to make a little vintage style card for the hair slides. It's a labels 11 die cut with two little slits to allow the clips to slide onto it.


My second project for today shows the dress image again from You're Lovely, together with a sentiment from the set. I also used the new Flourishes set to make the pattern on the paper pieced dress and on the background of the card. I am so excited about these flourishes. I have wanted them forever, but I always said I would hold off until I could produce flourishes that were a little bit different from the norm, and I found my answer in the little scallops and dots!! Flourishes - Scallops and Dots is the first in a series for Flourish sets - they are like no other flourish sets that I have seen anywhere else! I'm excited to bring you these ones, but I cannot wait to hear what you will make of the res of the flourishes in the series!!


I used copics again to shade the folds of the gown to give it a little realism. Another flower at the hip... I seem to be stuck in the 80's...


Room for one more?


Another dress form from the You're Lovely set - so much packed into this wee 6x4 set! This one is shorter and maybe a little cheekier! lol, if you coloured it right, it could almost be vintage bloomers! Here it's a bodice top and pinstripe skirt with kick frill, you will never see me wear anything like this, excess hair follicle issues, but it's so girlie and I love it to pieces!! It's what I wear in my head...in the sun...when I'm going for ice-cream in Rome in one of those gelato parlours...

I LOVE the punchy shade of blue, with the crisp white and kraft, yum! I embossed the image with white powder onto a kraft base. I then used a brush to 'paint' the image with stamping inks, I found the SU inks super for this! Just like watercolouring!


Tiny little label tag with a sentiment from Eat Cake. I thought the wrought iron stand was fun and I can see no end of applications for this, it'll be my go-to set for feminine cards for the forseeable future!! You're Lovely contains a total of 13 stamps - 2 dress forms, 3 bodices, 3 mini floral satmp, 2 small scale flourishes and 5 sentiments. All in a wee 6x4 set!

Couldn't go without showing you some flourishes, this was the card background before the focal panel was added - what do you see? Pairs of matching flourishes...pairs...excellent possibilities for these fabby flourishes, I'm just scratching the surface here!!!


Sure hope these tickle!! I'm off to get the store ready - and if you've been good and read all this way down, here's a wee tip - leave a comment telling me which set is your front runner so far....I'll be drawing a comment to win a prize...an entire set of July release stamps kinda prize... :)

  1. Wow wow wow!!! The dress form...the cake....the flourishes....
    Be still my heart!!
    I was a tad worried when you mentioned 8 (!) sets, but I'm so glad they are smaller sets...no need to whittle down the wishlist too much!! Thanks Claire!!

  2. Impossible to choose between You're Lovely and Flourishes because in my mind, from what I've seen you doing with them, you can't have one without the other! At least, that's what I'll be telling my hubby when I order these!

    ReplyDelete
  3. 'You're Lovely' is definitely my favourite set. I love that it is a smaller set too...makes it more affordable. 'Eat cake' is a close second.

    ReplyDelete
  4. Oooh I'm drooling over the dress form........oh and the swirls too .....well everything really!

    ReplyDelete
  5. All sets are exquisite but I think my favourite has to be 'You're Lovely'. The dress form and dress are so elegant. Just fab! xx

    ReplyDelete
  6. I am just loving the You're Lovely set. So versatile! I love the way the stamps can be vintage or modern. I can see that my Waltzing Mouse collection will be expanding soon. Beautiful designs.

    ReplyDelete
  7. Gorgeous, just gorgeous! I love the dress form, I am such a sucker for girly things! Can't wait to see what else you have up your sleeve....

    ReplyDelete
  8. All of the above Claire! As usual all your new sets are soooo pretty, but I really, really like You're Lovely, and the Flourishes, and, and, and...

    ReplyDelete
  9. Claire, O, to choose from lovely to lovelier to loveliest! OK, I can do this...my front runner, so far, is 'You're Lovely'.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Well obviously I adore ALL of them, but if you hold a gun to my head and only allow me one, I think I'd pick the cake one at this point but don't hold me to it ;-)

    ReplyDelete
  11. Oh my Claire so hard to pick a winner but I do LOVE the flourish stamps.....so very elegant!

    ReplyDelete
  12. You're Lovely is certainly my favorite set from this release. I always tell my daughter she is "my beautiful girl" so I love this sentiment. I recently received my first Waltzingmouse Stamp Set as a gift, and I love your products. I have my fingers crossed.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Just jaw dropping gorgeous Claire! Love all your gorgeous colours!

    ReplyDelete
  14. I really like the you're lovely and flourishes sets. Love your cards.

  15. Claire all of you projects and sets are amazing so picking a favorite is very hard! I've really enjoyed all the previews but I think the cameo sets and the flourishes have won my heart! Thank you for all the effort that you put into all of this!

    ReplyDelete
  16. Of course I love them all, but the flourishes are the ones that make me weak at the knees--just can't get enough of them! And the way you made left and right facing ones--wowzer!

    ReplyDelete
  17. the Flourishes are the front runner so far but You're Lovely is a VERY close second. And to be honest, all the others are neck and neck as well!

    ReplyDelete
  18. All gorgeous, loving the sentiments from the wedding stamps and the silhouettes. Need them though!!

    ReplyDelete
  19. These cards are beautiful, Claire!! I Love how pretty the dresses are. Love the flourishes too. To mention a favourite set is oh so very hard. I'm rather partial to the Cameos set, and also Eat Cake, but really, in all honesty I know I will end up buying all of them eventually. Absolutely LOVE this Fabulous release, Claire! Well done!!! {{Big Hugs}}

    ReplyDelete
  20. Claire - you've out done yourself. I just love your cards - the blue one is my favourite! Can't wait to see what you do tomorrow!! Stunning work!

    ReplyDelete
  21. I'm loving all so far... hard to choose a fav.... But I adore that dress from You're Lovely!!

    ReplyDelete
  22. Your sets are all lovely, Claire, but I'm partial to the cake stamp! I love how you decorated your cake with the text, I'll have to try that myself!

    ReplyDelete
  23. Ohmygoodness ... how beautiful! The flourish set is really unique and I'm anxious to add it to my collection!

    ReplyDelete
  24. These are amazing..love the dress so gorgeous..and the blue card so different but so gorgeous too!

    ReplyDelete
  25. They are all absolutely delicious. So many beautiful examples. I can't wait for Eat Cake.

    ReplyDelete
  26. I think you've really outdone yourself this time and envy that you can create STAMPS that YOU want and make us all want them as well! I love all the sets from this release but wow, those flourishes have been missing in my arsenal for a while and I NEED them! The case set would be my second, because I don't have anything like that either.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Oh my, I can't pick a favorite because I am in love with them all. Your attention to detail is amazing and I am always inspired by what you create and the uniqueness of your sets.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Your work is quite beautiful! Thank you for all of the wonderful inspiration!!!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Claire -- WOW! What a fun release this is shaping up to be!! My favorite has GOT to be those FLOURISHES!! *swoon* :) Absolutley lovely!!

    ReplyDelete
  30. Oh my goodness, how in the world could anyone pick just one favorite? I love them all!!! And the flourishes is a perfect embellie! You're awesome!

    ReplyDelete
  31. 3 lovelies Claire! the paper piecing on the dresses looks divine as well as all the flourishes! Hope you did get to sleep in this morning!

    ReplyDelete
  32. Wow! Wow! Wow! You really expect me to be able to choose a favourite?! They're all fabulous! If pushed, I guess I'd say the cameo sets. I've wanted something like those for ages. My finger is ready to hover over the order button.....

    ReplyDelete
  33. That's a hard one, I'm loving your sentiments and the flourishes look great and the dress is gorgeous so I guess the cake set is my fav (but only by a little bit! lol)

    Loving your new sets and your dt's inspirational cards are great :)

    ReplyDelete
  34. WOW this is going to be an amazing set ....... so unique and classic LOVE and he style of the flourishes is so me ....... I love everything about this post today!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  35. Jeepers! I love the look of these sets - I thought cameos would be hard to top this month, but those dressforms and elegnat swirls are mouth-watering ;)
    Thanks for the chance to win,
    Rx

    ReplyDelete
  36. Oh my Claire, your creations are just beautiful!! I especially love the blue card - WOW!

    If we're choosing between the two sets you introduced today, I'd have to go with the Flourishes, just because a WMS flourish set has been on my dream list. But overall, the Ovals, Classic Frames will be the first set in my cart. Gorgeous!

    ReplyDelete
  37. One favorite, huh? I could see flourishes being my favorite because they are so versatile. I could see the You're Lovely being my favorite because, well, they're lovely. The cameos and the ovals are so classic and classy. But I think I'm in love with those glorious cakes!

    ReplyDelete
  38. Oh my goodness! I love your elegant flourishes and those gorgeous dresses! I'm torn between the Cameos and your flourishes and your dresses and your cake....... do I have to pick just ONE??? Okay, I'll pick the flourishes - so fresh, so elegant, so versatile!

    ReplyDelete
  39. Love all the new designs!

    My favorites right now are the Flourishes, Cameo to Go/Cameo Creations, and Ovals - Classic Frames. I can see so many possibilities for those stamps. But that said, after looking at all the DT's posts, Eat Cake is moving up the charts. I love how the cake decorations were used as background stamps.


    One more day, wheeee!

    ReplyDelete
  40. I need some wedding images like the phrases - those are just perfect for wedding cards. But I have to say that I like the Eat Cake the best so far! I like to decorate cakes to begin with so doing it with stamps is going to be fun!
    All the sets have that Waltzingmouse style that I just love! Great Job!

    ReplyDelete
  41. Claire - is wonderful.

    Stunning design and gorgeous card! Love the details you layered and the way they are placed.

    ReplyDelete
  42. WOW WOW WOW. This is the first time I've seen the dress form stamp and really want it. Your samples are amazing and the colors are beautiful and vintage looking. So far the cameos are my fav but it really is a tough call so far :)

    ReplyDelete
  43. Really hard to choose a favorite...but if I had to I guess I'm a sucker for cameos...they're old fashioned yet classic. Thanks for the chance to win!

    ReplyDelete
  44. Soo feminine! Love the swirls and how you've incorporated them, too. They look both vintage and avant garde - a style you have mastered!

    ReplyDelete
  45. Clare, wow! I have to say all of your samples this month have been amazing! I think my front runner so far is the flourish set, I love that it looks so different from all the others I've seen! I think Eat Cake is a close second, I've been looking for a cake set too . . . .

    Can't wait for tomorrow!

    ReplyDelete
  46. Everything has been just gorgeous, I love it all! I think I may say my fave is You're Lovely.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Claire,
    This is just lovely!! As I scrolled down and was met by your next creation I was struck by all the different ways I can use these sets. You did a fabulous job! I love it all - the cards, the beautiful blue, the silvery scrolls...Can't wait to get my hands on set!

    ReplyDelete
  48. Love, LOVE the flourishes! I can envision using them for all kinds of cards.

    ReplyDelete
  49. oh my gosh!! love, love, love the "you're so lovely" set!! the cameo set is just gorgeous too!

    ReplyDelete
  50. I am loving the flourishes and I am sooo glad you designed a set with them! I've been waiting for a while for flourishes from WMS, and a series, no less?!! YES!!!

    ReplyDelete
  51. These 2 sets of stamps are beautiful! I love all the different samples- such an inspirational blog- I think 'You're Lovely' might be first on my list- so hard to choose!!! Just wonderful!

    ReplyDelete
  52. My favorites so far are the Ovals & Classic Frames, followed closely by the Flourishes & Scallops! I'm afraid I am going to have to buy them both!! The cards and design team examples are all just gorgeous!!

    ReplyDelete
  53. They all look amazing, can't wait to see the full reveal. My favorite so far are those amazing flourishes and the cameos! :)

    ReplyDelete
  54. Amazing, Claire!! You've done it again!! I can't wait for the store to open!! :)

    ReplyDelete
  55. I love all these samples Claire and can't wait to see the stamps tomorrow. I really want the Eat Cake set but the flourishes set is my favourite because I've been waiting for a really good set to come along.
    Hugs

  56. The flourish set is the one that intrigues me the most so far. The possibilities are endless with that set!

    ReplyDelete
  57. My definite favourites so far are the "You're Lovely" and "Flourishes" sets. The dress form on your samples are fabulous and I want them now!!!!!! Can't wait until release day.

    ReplyDelete
  58. Gorgeous Claire... still wishing it was a teepee!!!! LOL!!!

    ReplyDelete
  59. They all look great but right now the Flourishes set is at the top of my wish list. Thanks for the chance to win!

    ReplyDelete
  60. Wowzers Claire! What an AMAZING collection of cards! Love the various ways you showcased so many images!

    ReplyDelete
  61. Utterly fabulous in every way!! i love these mannequin forms and the flourishes, I think these are my favourites!! But then there's the cake set, I looove the cake! I can't wait til tomorrow!

    i love the flourishes!

    ReplyDelete
  63. If you had asked at this time yesterday I would definitely have said Eat Cake! However I would now say that You're Lovely (with flourishes!) is the set for me. To be honest I think that I will be needing the overtime money that I have earned in June to pay for these.....small sets eh?

    ReplyDelete
  64. Oh my Claire!! Did you ever show off these dresses beautifully!! LOVE the flourishes, the stunning pieced dress, and your turquoise colored dress form is gorgeous!! So many fabulous ideas!! WOW!

    ReplyDelete
  65. Wow, Claire, these are 3 wonderful cards, they all look so elegant. I like the colour combinations you used on your cards, the dresses look really great the way you coloured them and I also very much like the flourishes stamped either on the dress or as background.

    Which set is my front runner so far? Well, that's difficult to say as they all look very beautiful. I think at the moment "Eat Cake" and "Flourishes" are together at the front.

    I look forward to seeing all sets tomorrow.

    Have a nice evening!
    Carola

    ReplyDelete
  66. Egads, it's really hard to choose a favorite, but I've never really seen a flourish set quite like this. It's adorable!

    Thank you for the giveaway, looking forward to the big reveal tomorrow!

    Have a great day! =)

  68. You're Lovely is gorgeous! The lines on the gown is simply beautiful.

    ReplyDelete
  69. Claire,
    I'd have to pick Flourishes. I love the dots and scallops. I love the mirror images(makes life easier). I love it all. You're lovely!

    ReplyDelete
  70. Well, I've narrowed my fave down to Flourishes, Eat Cake, and You're Lovely, except that's three, not one--so, OK, Flourishes. But I love all of those, plus the Big Day sentiments.

    ReplyDelete
  71. You're Lovely is absolutely beautiful....there goes my will power! LOL

    ReplyDelete
  72. It is difficult to say which one, but it I must I would say ovals.

    ReplyDelete
  73. So hard to choose - but I think the flourishes are my fave because they are so DIFFERENT from anything out there and we can use them for so many styles and themes. Lovely cards, Claire - I am amazed at what you accomplish with the same 24 hours all the rest of us have to use.

    ReplyDelete
  74. Yeah. I really don't know where to start! These are amazing! I don't think you need a personal tutor, but I'm sure we can work out some kind of partnership!! Maybe you can teach me how to draw!

    ReplyDelete
  75. Such beautifully drawn stamps! I'll have to say Flourishes Scallops and Dots is my favorite at the moment. Thank you!

    ReplyDelete
  76. I just love your take on a dress form - it's different than everything else I've seen! Beautiful as always Claire!!!

    ReplyDelete
  77. Oh! Wow! I am loving the lovely dresses...and the flourishes are a very close second. Off to edit the wish list, very much looking forward to tomorrow!

    ReplyDelete
  78. Hmmmm...flourishes or Cake. I can't decide. I think I would use the flourishes more! Thanks for the chance to win. Can't wait to ink them up!

    ReplyDelete
  79. These are just stunning Claire! I can't choose between You're Lovely (since I don't own a dress form stamp and I adore vintage) and Flourishes, Scallops and Dots - these swirls are simply ADORABLE!!! I go dotty for dots LOL!

    ReplyDelete
  80. Your flourishes are very different & more interesting than so many others. I have also loved looking at the cards w/the Cameo set & the sentiments that go w/it.

    ReplyDelete
  81. Aaaah! The sneak was the dress, hi hi, wouldn't have guessed that, but it's gorgeous!! And I think I loooove the swirls!! So much beauty here again, Claire!!
    Hugs, Wendy

    ReplyDelete
  82. your cards are beautiful as well as your designs!! so far my fave is You're Lovely!!

    ReplyDelete
  83. I think my favorite stamp set has to be the You're Lovely. My mind is going 100 miles a minute with endless ideas for making a card. The dress on these cards are just gorgeous. You do a lovely job Claire.

    ReplyDelete
  84. It is a toss up between Eat Cake and Big Day but the chance to win them all - ooh ooh la la! Clare you are too generous!!

    ReplyDelete
  85. Come on Claire: you're asking for a favorite? That's pretty impossible considering it's YOU designing the sets!!! I have to admit that I've been waiting a long time for the flourishes (and I'm glad I didn't break down and buy a set from someone else!), but the dresses are amazing and can be so versatile, the cameo's are amazing (and I Love that the profiles are from your family: earlier I was wondering if they were: I was right!!), and the lettering from the wedding set is just so elegant, and the cake set looks just wonderful and will be versatile also, so do you see my problem? No favorites, Just alot of love :) Great Job on another over the top release!!! Hugs :)

    ReplyDelete
  86. Well this is a hard choice to be honest.....this release is AWESOME!! I know I say that every time but you really have excelled yourself this time. FANTABULOUS sets if I have to choose then CAmeo Creations would be my first choice.

    I do love them all and can't wait till the morning!

    Enjoy your long lie

  87. You're Lovely, definitely but I love them all! I can see this being a very useful set as my daughter gets older.

  88. Bin begeistert von den Stemeln und Karten die ich bis jetzt gesehen habe.

  89. i LOVE dress forms so You're Lovely is my fav!! laura j

    ReplyDelete
  90. I am so excited for this release! My favs so far are You're so Lovely and the Cameo sets.

    ReplyDelete
  91. This is like "Desert Island Disks" for stampers! How can I choose just one when there are eight favourites?! The ovals are going to be so useful, but Big Day is an absolute must for me as I'm getting married next year. Eat Cake will get used over and over again I'm sure and I'll also have to sneak You're Lovely into my basket, having seen the stunning cards you've created here.
    Thank you again for such an inspiring feast of eye candy - the whole DT have excelled themselves again.

    debpaint16@aol.com

    ReplyDelete
  95. The Your Lovely looks, well, lovely! The Flourishes are to swoon for...it's going to be another great release.

    ReplyDelete
  96. There are dress forms, and then there's YOUR dress form! This is possibly the most fantastic set yet! (of course I said that about the cameos, too) but I can tell from your gorgeous cards that this certainly came from the heart!

    ReplyDelete
  97. Great projects today--I like the hairclip card. I think my favorite is the cameo sets.

    ReplyDelete
  98. I can't choose... I love them all! Front runner is You're Lovely, with Eat Cake and both Cameo sets at very close seconds. Such lovely samples from you and your team this release!

    ReplyDelete
  99. Every time I come to your blog, I learn something new! Love the fun frame you created with the swirls! Off to go try that myself!

    ReplyDelete
  100. I"m waffling between flourishes and eat cake. Since I make a lot of cakes and birthday cards, I'm going for Eat Cake. I wish I had some cake right now...:D

    ReplyDelete
  101. love love love your flourishes they are great ...I can see so many uses for them and love what you did with them too ....

    ReplyDelete
  102. Gotta have "You're Lovely." It's going to be like playing with paper dolls and dressing them up! Of course, as usual, what's not to like about any of the sets?

    ReplyDelete
  103. I LOVE the flourish stamps, well I love them all, but the flourish stamps is my favorite.
    beautiful work

    ReplyDelete
  104. these are AMAZING!!!! love the detail...

    ReplyDelete
  105. The flourishes are just so lovely. But then so are the dresses! And the fun cakes, and the cameos! What a great July release Claire! Can't wait for tomorrow.

    ReplyDelete
  106. Love everything I've seen so far!! ack :) But my absolute favorite is the "You're Lovely" set. So glad I waited to get something like this. It's just perfect :)

    ReplyDelete
  107. I can't chose just 1!!! This is your best release yet, I need them all now!!! Love the dress set and the sentiment set I have seen on the hop, perfect for weddings etc, good job it's my birthday this month, i will be spending it here!!!

    ReplyDelete
  108. Hmmm... so many pretty sets from which to choose Claire... I guess Eat Cake is the forerunner for me, I just really like cake, and that set has such pretty ones with so many possibilities. Thanks for the chance to win such a generous prize!

    ReplyDelete
  109. Absolutely stunning!

    It's hard to go for a favourite... But I'll give it a try as I think I'm in love with the "You're Lovely" set!

    ReplyDelete
  110. The two "Big Day" sets are my favourites, closely followed by the Florishes set. I just love a sentiment set, and those fonts - oh my!! I just can't wait for the full reveal (but alas will have to wait a little longer, as 4am is just a tad too early for this little one, especially on a weekend!). Great release Claire.

    ReplyDelete
  111. I'm soooo in love with the cake and the dress form!!! Amazing!!! And love your cards as well Claire!!!

    ReplyDelete
  112. Hi Claire!

    Ha ha, I was so impressed by the dresses that I now see I forgot to tell you my probably most faborite set, but I'm totally not sure yet, until I saw the entire sets, hi hi, but I think it will be Big Day! Those sentiments are sooooo gorgeous!!! And I had to make a wedding card just a little time ago and found out I almost don't have any sentiments for that occasion, so I love this!! But I believe to have more favorites than just this one, hi hi!!!

    Hugs, Wendy

    ReplyDelete
  113. It will be a very close finish for all of the sets I'm afraid. I love the cameos, the cake stand and the dresses. And you seem to have a nose to pick beautiful fonts for your sentiments!

    ReplyDelete
  114. The new stamps are fab! I've hopped through all the blogs and all the girls have made gorgeous cards. If you ask me to decide which set is my favorite, I'd go for Cameo Creations:)

    ReplyDelete
  115. Everything is beautiful Claire, but I think the first sets to go in my cart will be the cameo sets and the Oval spellbinders compatible set (can't get enough of those!). Of course, knowing when to say "when" is the hardest part about shopping!!

    ReplyDelete
  116. I'm new to your log but your stamps are amazing-love the cameos & these dressforms :) I think I love the dressforms the best-it's hard to pick though.... ;) x

    ReplyDelete
  117. I've just realised that I didn't pick my favourite set - all of them! :) If I have to have one I think it would be You're Lovely!

    Can't wait until this evening :)

    ReplyDelete
  118. I am loving the new releases - my favourite has to be the cameos but I love the flourishes too. Decisions, decisions....

    ReplyDelete
  119. The cameo's are without a doubt my must have, they are exquisite, but when i saw the 'lovely' samples from yesterday i think they are a close second. Can't wait, well done Claire x

  122. Wow, I love these new sets. The Design Team's samples are awesome. Think the dress forms and flourishes are my favourites. Looking forward to the full reveal later today though. :-)

  126. Choose a favourite, huh? Well, you can't have too many flourishes but then 'you're lovely is so beautiful and the cake set is fab but 'you're lovely probably just has the edge for me - love them all though, well done on another exciting release!

  127. They're all fabulous but I think the Cameo Creations set look really interesting and I think they are my favourite.

  128. It is hard to choose!! I think the dress forms, but I love them all!! Such a great month. I need to win, cause I am saving for hubby's birthday gift, and can't spend any $$ right now:( Keeping fingers crossed!!

  129. all your stamp are super stunning butif i had to pick then i would say that the cameos look very appealing. Especially for making vintage emblishemts to cards and mini books
    Well done on giving us great stamps and ideas, and the DT work had been great too

  130. Hard to choose! I like anything girlie so right now it's a tie between the Cameos and the Lovely set with the beautiful dress and the form! You have outdone yourself on the design of the dress form! Love the scroll work of the legs, so perfect for vintage cards! Exciting new release!

  131. I am loving them all, but I think You're lovely is my absolute fave with the flourishes as a runner up. Another great release Claire! :)

  133. I am loving your stamps this release. While I like the Cameo Set, I really love the You're Lovely. I am a beginner sewer and can imagine making the cutest tags with this set. Oh, and a die would be the icing on the cake!

  137. It's going to be hard to pick a favorite, but I'm loving the flourishes with dots and scallops. I can't help it--I'm a sucker for fancy flourishes. :-)

    ReplyDelete
  138. Definitely has to be "Flourishes-Scallops and Dots"! Can we all say, "WOW!!"? Gotta love those flourishes. They are so different from others!

  139. While the flourishes are lovely with such graceful movement to them, my favorite set (prior to the reveal) is Cameo to go. The silhouette is charming, the font is unique, and the frame is glorious. Another marvelous release, Claire.

  140. Just a fabulous job as always on your sets. Can't wait to get my hands on them! Beautiful!

    ReplyDelete
  141. Really great release!
    And such a hard decision to choose one favorite. I love that the silhouettes are based on your kiddos. Not that I'll ever know them but to know that the profiles belong to actual people (sort of) is kinda cool! And the framing stamps that go around them are superb. Think of the options of putting initials/monograms or other tiny designs inside... Very excited for those possibilities.
