Waffle Flower December Release Blog Hop + Giveaway!

Hi Everyone! Welcome to Waffle Flower's December Release Blog Hop! The stamps this month are SO cute. I can't wait for you all to get your hands on them and share how you use them!
Let me share a little bit more about this release!
Waffle Flower's 2018 December release is sweet and simple. Halftone Background stamp set features a gradient of dots that can be overlapped and stamped in two colors to create the look of a blended background. In this release you will also find the lovely Thinking of You stamp set featuring the same girl from our Always stamp set hugging the cutest cat ever. The Cookie Love Stamp Set (stampdiecombo), illustrated by Big Bear and Bird, is perfect for anyone wanting to send some love or get a jump on their Valentine’s cards! And the 2x3 Lettuce stamp set (stampdiecombo) offers a cute punny greeting for a friend.


Now, how about I share a couple of cards I created with this adorable release! First up is the Thinking of You Stamp Set. 

I am no colorist, but I had so much fun coloring in this sweet girl and her cat!
Then I combined the Halftone Background stamp with Lettuce Be Friends on a Tag and on a small circle shaped card! 
The little lettuce seriously cracks me up!
I also used the Halftone Background to create a snowy look for this little card:
Don't forget that you can save by grabbing the whole release as a bundle!

12 Crafts of Christmas - Day 1 - Stocking Stuffers and Small Crafty Gifts

Welcome to the first day of my brand new YouTube series, 12 Crafts of Christmas! Each day I will share a Christmas craft such as a card, tag, ornament and more! For today though, I have some gift ideas to share! Here are 5 inexpensive crafty gifts or stocking stuffers. For starts, here is the Stori Clear Plastic Nail Polish organizer.
I use one of these for my Distress Oxide ink blenders and it fits perfectly inside one of my Alex drawers from IKEA.
I use another for my Tonic Studios Nuvo Crystal Drops and liquid glues.
Next up are the Yoseng brushes! These super soft make up brushes are cheap, but blend Distress Oxide ink beautifully!
Speaking of Distress Oxide inks, there are several new colors and I can absolutely recommend these three, Festive Berries, Pine Needles and Chipped Sapphire.
Then there are the new Tonic Studios Nuvo Vintage Drops. They dry dimensional and bright but have matte color as opposed to the shiny Crystal Drops. 
There's also fun colors of Glitter Accents.
And last, but not least, there is a whole new batch of Therm O Web and Gina K Designs adhesives. Everything from Foam Tape to Masking Tape and more!
I show all these crafty gifts up close in this video, so you can check them out and see if they are right for you or a crafty friend!
Thanks so much for stopping by for Day 1 of my 12 Crafts of Christmas! Check out all the supplies I used in the video below! Happy shopping!
