Ellen Hutson | Essentials by Ellen | New Stamps & Dies from Brandi Kincaid






Happy Sunday!  I'm so excited to shared some super fun new products released today by Ellen Hutson.  Brandi Kincaid has new products that are being added to her Leading Ladies collection.

First up is the new Essentials by Ellen, Leading Ladies - Teacher Lady by Brandi Kincaid:


So I'll explain what I did and the story behind who the card is going to.  I racked my brain about some type of school or teacher type themed paper I could use and then spied the notebook style in the Lawn Fawn Really Rainbow set.  I trimmed it down and use a hole punch to finish it off.

Chuckling, I color the leading ladies' outfits as I would personally wear them.   Gotta love the jeans, denim shirt, orange sweater + black flats, perfect.  I stamped a bunch of the items in the set, like the book, notebook, ruler, glue and mechanical pencil.  I stamped a sentiment on the notebook.


The water bottle is from the Essentials by Ellen, Leading Ladies - Woodsy Lady by Brandi Kincaid.  Yes, there is a perfectly awesome mug in the Teacher Lady set, this is going to a non-coffee drinker (GASP). 

I really wanted to incorporate the World's Best Teacher sentiment so I used the Lawn Fawn Mini Picture Frames Lawn Cuts.

A bit of background on the card....Darin's daughter is going into her 2nd year of teaching this fall.  She has found the perfect job and I couldn't be happier for her.  I had the opportunity to volunteer in her classroom, actually for a field trip to the Space Needle/Seattle Science Center.  It was so fun to 'see her in action'.  Her kids loved her and you could really tell that she was enjoying herself.

How lucky to be in an occupation that you love and that you excel at.  I'm still trying to figure out what I want to do when I grow up...LOL.

I'm linking up my card to the Inspired by Challenge:


Next up is Essentials by Ellen, Leading Ladies - Medical Lady by Brandi Kincaid:


So yes, I combined here with the following other friends (from left to right):


The sentiment is a combo from the Essentials by Ellen Clear Stamps - Be Strong by Brandi Kincaid + Essentials by Ellen dies - Strong by Brandi Kincaid

I was talking to my friend and walking buddy, Laura about an idea of combining several of the Leading Ladies on one card with an empowering sentiment.  It reminds me of this quote:

Here's to Strong Women.
May we know them
May we be them.
May we raise them.



Thanks so much for stopping by today!

Ellen Hutson LLC - Essentials by Ellen - New stamps + Dies from Brandi Kincaid!




I'm so excited, there's a new Essential by Ellen release by Brandi Kincaid!  I'm a huge fan of her Leading Ladies collection!  Today I'm featuring the Woodsy Lady by Brandi Kincaid.


I had so much fun with her...if I was outdoorsy, that's what I would wear...green puffy vest, grey tee and shorts.

That squirrel, too cute!


Yes to S'mores!


I used the basket and to go cup from the Leading Ladies - Cozy Lady by Brandi Kincaid.  I had so much fun filling it up with that awesome thermos and roasted marshmallows!

My card was inspired by Fusion - Card Challenge:

Life is Smoother...



Have you seen the new Ellen Hutson LLC, Essentials by Ellen Release?!  It's awesome, here's what I picked  up:


I consider myself lucky that I can easily pick up my orders from Ellen's!  Although, that being said, it's quite dangerous (wink).  

Well, I couldn't wait to dive into my new goodies:


Eep!  I love the new Spa Day that I combined with the Mirror Mirror Designer Dies.  I used PinkFresh Studios Felicity Paper.  Can you tell that I backed the Mirror frame with pale aqua vellum?

My card was inspired by the current Essentials by Ellen, Pin-Sights Challenge:


I was inspired by the aqua color and the 'smooth' surfaces.

I was also inspired by the current Freshly Made Sketches:



This card is going to a sweet friend, we're celebrating her belated birthday.   I put together a giftie bag full of Spa products like masks and nail polish.

Thanks for stoppin' by!!!!
