CSS Favorites

Good morning! Today Clear and Simple Stamps is releasing add-on sets and coordinating dies to go along with some favorite CSS products!

This special release showcases:
By the Glass Dies
Taglines: By the Glass
Flower Buds Dies
Cake Domes

...and some brand new goodies:
Party Favor 8
Border: Eyelets
Glassine Bags
1" Simple Adhesive

Today I decided to try "Stamp it 3 Ways" with the Cake Dome set:
1.  Use the cake dome as a.....cake dome!



2.  Use the cake dome as a decorative flower dome


3.  Use the cake dome as a bird cage (thanks Jess!)


On the second card, I die cut all of the Flower Bud Dies from white cardstock, stamped on the ones I needed for the focal point, then adhered the extras to the card base for added texture and interest.  Here's a close-up:


Now you may notice that I made 3 birthday cards...that's because today we have a special CSS birthday- Reenee!  She mostly works behind-the-scenes at CSS, but is truly amazing! I was so happy to be able to meet her (and Nicki!) last year at CKC Manchester.  Happy Birthday Reenee!!

Please visit the other girls who are participating today...they have some wonderful projects to share!

    Love your three ways take on the stamp Jen! I just knew the last one would be a birdcage - seems I'm getting to know how your mind works a little! I have to agree with Elena - the textured background from the white-on-white die cuts is amazing!!!

    Love how you've used the stamp in 3 different ways. Your flower card is my favourite. Love the flowery surprise and the way you created your background with die cuts.

    Glad I wasn't the only one who saw the cake dome as a bird cage too ;) I really like the first card, that chevron paper is fun! And then a very cool use of the dies on the second card.
