I am so excited to be posting today as a Guest Designer for the September Essentials By Ellen release! You are going to love all the stamps and designer dies that are a part of this new release!
I am hopping along today with Ellen Hutson LLC in The Classroom!
If you are hopping you should have arrived here from Carolynn Peeler's blog.
I am showcasing the new Essentials by Ellen No Peeking sentiment stamp set that was designed by amazing Brandi Kincaid. My first card uses this set combined with the newest in the Leading Ladies series, Baker Lady, also designed by Brandi Kincaid. I began by sponging a background on a Neenah solar white panel using Ranger Distress Oxide ink in Worn Lipstick. I spritzed some water in the palm of my hand and flicked it on to my card and then absorbed the excess water with a paper towel to remove some of the ink and let the oxides work their magic. I stamped the sentiment from No Peeking over the dried panel using VersaFine Onyx Black ink. Next I stamped the rolling pin and gingerbread from the Baker Lady Clear Stamp set, Copic coloured them and then die cut them from the Baker Lady Designer Dies. I adhered them to the card using some foam tape for dimension. The last step was to add a few sparkling clear sequins that I filled with some Silver Stickles. Makes for a cute Christmas card. The panel was adhered to the card base with foam tape for dimension.
My second card uses another sentiment from the No Peeking stamp set along with the new Modern Christmas Clear Stamps deigned by awesome Julie Ebersol. The holly is this set is so fun because the leaves can be stamped either as solid image or a sketch image. I arranged it so that the sentiment was lower than the holly and so that together they were centred on the panel. The sentiment was stamped first in VersaFine Onyx Black and then I stamped the holly using both the solid and the sketch leaves. I finished it off by tying some black and white twine around the panel and adhered it to the card base with foam tape for dimension.

There's a lot of fun things in this release! I love your showcase of them!
super cute projects :) love those adorable lil cookies
Tracey, I love all of these. The fonts in this set are all so nice. Your cards and tag/s are great. TFS!
A trio of loveliness, Tracey (and congratulations again on your GD spot with EH!) ... that sweet sponged background with the gingerbread men is just adorable, the holly is so cool and deliciously graphic, and that cute little snowman amid all the shimmeriness is simply cute! So much fabulous inspiration, thank you! Hugs, Anita :)
Lots of cuteness happening here today Tracey! The wash of pink on the first card is so perfect with the images and sentiment!
Wow !! I love all your creations !! Beautiful colors and simple but very efficient.
A trio of wonderful projects, Tracey! I hope you don't ask me to choose a favorite, because they're all amazing! That first one is a jaw dropper! The pink and fun sentiment with those gingerbread boys is adorable. Love the filled sequins, too. The holly card is beautifully CAS, and I really do like the sketchy aspect of the one leaf. Very cool. And those little tags are darling. LOVE the pink and mint combination with those pops of silver and white. So sweet! Hope your YKWs are staying away!! Bev
Loads of goodness here! Those gingerbread men are too sweet as is the sentiment. Love the leaves and that according tag is already on my list. Nicely done.
I love the pink tags, so pretty. The CAS holly card is perfectly simple. And the pink behind that beautiful sentiment and cookies really makes them pop!
Sweet, merry and adorable projects!
Congrats on the GDT!! These are gorgeous! LOVING the gingerbread men!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Too darn cute...love your sweet gingerbread cookies, so yummy! So many fabulous holiday cards, you must be way ahead of the game for Christmas this year!
That first card almost has me wanting that set, Tracey. Those little images are perfect with the sentiment. The holly makes a great CAS Christmas card.
Tracey, you know I love every little thing you touch... today, I'm so loving those sentiments as much as all the tiny little details of your projects!

These are all awesome cards. I so need that concertina tag die!
I am loving this hop. The pink tags are a visual delight. Never thought I'd like pink for Christmas-but you changed my mind!
So many lovely new stamps and dies in this new release. Love how you have used them in your cards.
