Free Shipping Days at 3C...

 

Good morning!

It's free shipping days at Colorado Craft Company, which means that for the next two days US shipping is free and international orders get $6.95 off on any size order. Making this the perfect time to grab some of the sweet new sets in the Confection Collection by Kris Lauren or add some older sets to your stash that work beautifully with this new release... like I've used on today's cards. 

For my first card I've combined the big cupcake and cherry in the Sweet Life set with some adorable mice from the This is the Life Toadstool and Teacups and Mice sets. The combination is so seamless that you would never know that they weren't made to work together. As a fun little touch I colored some chocolate on the sleeping mouse's face so it looks like he has been treating himself to some of that delicious cupcake before falling into a contented nap.

 

For my second card I've used the chef's hat and flour bag from the Secret Ingredient set and then I cut the small bag, bowl and baking utensils from the Baking Background stamp to use individually. I love how this simple alteration to the stamp makes its uses even more versatile. The tiny mice from the older Mouse House set were the perfect scale to go with all these baking images and now it looks like they've raided the kitchen to make their own special treat. 

Now don't forget that you still have through tomorrow to participate in the blog hop for a chance to win one of the new stamp sets. All winners will be randomly selected and announced on their blog July 3rd.  :)

Have a great week!
