I am a part of the Day 2 team and I am showcasing some of the great new products on the website. Shery has 3 fab bundles on sale and I worked with this one #2  Mine contains

Blossom sprays #5

One of the terrific sentiment stamp sets;

Design blox #6

For the moment all 3 new bundles are available for just  $26.60 and if you live within the USA shipping is free. Take a look here at the offer on the website. 

I used my gorgeous bundle to make 2 cards;

Card 1; This is what I got up to; For my first make I used one of my distress ink shaving foam marbled backgrounds from my stash. I stamped the lovely flower and sentiment and coloured the flowers using my Zig markers.

I also stamped the blooms only on some inky mop up card and used these to decoupage a couple of the bloom heads.

I then stamped the sentiment in place.  I also die cut some blue card using the cool new die and added it for a little edging. For a final touch I added some accents using glitter pens and a bow.

Here is my finished card;

with a couple of close ups;

and one final shot.

Card 2; For my second make I used another of my marbled backgrounds. I used the striped square from the design blox and added some distress ink. I repeated this over the background 

and then cut 4 squares out. I did one extra in case I needed it.

I stamped the celebrate you from the "See the good set" plus make a wish onto 2 of the squares and also 3 cupcakes from the Birthday bash stamp set onto inky mop up card. I cut the cupcakes out and added a little glitter pen as frosting.

I put the 4 squares together matching up the pattern onto pink card.

and stuck the cupcakes in place. 

I added some sequins as finishing touches. Here is my finished card

with a couple of close ups;

and one final shot.

I really hope I have inspired you to treat yourself to this gorgeous bundle (and a one of the older sets which is one of my favourites, who doesn't love cupcakes!). They really are a joy to use.

Before I go I just want to mention that FeedBurner are removing their "follow by email" function from Blogger at the end of the month. I have removed it from my side bar already. I have over 1,000 existing lovely email subscribers who I would hate to loose. If you have a Blogger account and currently get notifications by email of my new blog posts I would love if you would just hit my "follow" button on my side bar. My posts will then show up in your reader list feed. Otherwise if you follow me on Instagram, this is me here; or you can find me as @jane.tyrrell I will always mention there which of my posts are blogged. Thanks so much for all your support, Jx
