For my first card I have combined the Clearly Sentimental About New Beginnings with the LLD Journal It Calendar Basics and LLD Document It Days and Dates.

The Calendar Grid from the LLD Journal It Calendar Basics works with the Die-namics LLD Insert It - 3x4 Insert which was released last month. The 2013 at the end of the January at the top of the calendar is from the LLD Document It Days and Dates. I used the tags from the Die-namics LLD Accent It - Flags & Tags to create the Paver Red tag the January 2013 is stamped onto. The arrow pointing to the 2013 is all from this Die-namics set.

While my first card today is a New Years card the Clearly Sentimental About New Beginnings is for many occasions besides New Year. The sentiment is stamped and layered onto Whip Cream Cardstock and Paver Red Cardstock using the Die-namics Fishtail Flags STAX and Die-namics Fishtail Flags Layers STAX .

Paver Red is the newest color in MFT Stamps Replenishments range which includes Cardstock, Ribbon, Buttons and Felt.

I used the new Die-namics Poinsettia to create the flower on the right side of my card which is created using Paver Red Cardstock and Jellybean Green Cardstock.

On the top right hand side I added three Paver Red Buttons threaded with Hemp Cord.

Here is the  inside of my card. I added another sentiment from the Clearly Sentimental About New Beginnings stamp set. At the bottom of my card I added the year 2013 using the Die-namics High Rise Numbers.

For my second card today I have used the Clearly Sentimental About New Beginnings stamp set to create a card which can be used anytime during the year.

To create the curvy edge along my designer paper I used the new Die-namics Snow Drifts …. I love this die and can see it being used on lots of cards other than for just snow drifts.

This time round I created a pink poinsettia using the Die-namics Poinsettia using designer paper and Jellybean Green Cardstock. The base of the card is Sweet Tooth Cardstock and the thin band under the designer paper is Razzle Berry Cardstock.





Here is the inside of my card. I used the Die-namics Snow Drifts again on my designer paper at the bottom of my card and added another sentiment from the Clearly Sentimental About New Beginnings stamp set.
