I'm convinced that Asela Hopkins can draw anything. Long before our cruise, Asela emailed these sketches to me and I just flipped! It's so hard to sit on designs like these month after month, waiting for their release!

"Framed Friends" is the newest stamp set by Asela and it's jammed packed with fun!

One of the things you will love about these adorable framed critters is that, although they will make fabulous Valentine's Day projects, they are also very versatile and can be used anytime throughout the year.

Another detail that Asela added to this set is the ability to make "inchie" projects. There are five large main images and five small inch size duplicates for embellishing envelopes or making tiny gift tags and little note cards. You can also use the small ones for borders, backgrounds and so much more.

The heart patterned paper was created by another stamp in this set. Asela packed this set with images and greetings for you to mix and match!

Take a closer look for another new product we're adding to the new release line up!



Look at those beautiful corners! Those were created with the brand new ticket tag corner punch by Tonic!




Tonic makes the highest quality cutting tools and I love this new punch. You actually get two different corners in one. This punch makes the ticket corner as shown above in my sample and it will also make an straight edged angled corner for two different looks in one convenient tool! I will use it on another preview project coming up this week.



If you love to color, "Framed Friends" is such a fun set to give your markers a workout! Check out Asela's blog later today as she will be doing a coloring tutorial as only Asela can!

I added a little Crystal Lacquer on the ladybug and her heart. I added some on the flower too. To create some sparkle, I used the Sakura Star Dust pen. The whole thing was colored with Copic markers.

So what do you think of our first sneak peek?
