Day 4! Last day of release reveals, and tomorrow they'll all be available in the store. I am really excited about today's reveal.
When I created the font for my Bible Journaling stamps, I had in the back of my mind that these would make for a great set of alpha dies. And part of the reason I wanted them as dies is because I wanted to make my own Thickers. I have spent a small fortune purchasing Thickers, and of course you always run out of the vowels and are then left with a bunch of consonants. Plus, I lean towards tall and skinny when it comes to thickers and so there are only a few styles out there that fit in that category.
So as soon as I knew these were on their way to me, I went and ordered some adhesive foam sheets, so I could make my own Thickers. You'll be seeing these on layouts in the future, but for today I just whipped up a quickly little card.
So fun and easy (the grid paper really helps with lining up). And they went through my Big Shot like a breeze!
I do want to mention that these are actually a bit larger than the Bible Journaling stamps. Those are about 1" tall and these are 1 1/4". This photos is a good comparison:
Want the details on the giveaways? Well each day of our reveals (Monday - Thursday) Danielle is hosting a giveaway on the Neat & Tangled blog. In addition, she's picking one random commenter from the DT blogs throughout the reveal for a $25 credit to the store.
I'm also hosting some giveaways here for some of my new products. Just leave comments throughout the week and I'll draw some winners at the end of the week.
Don't forget to stop by the N&T blog, you definitely want to see what the rest of the girls created and also the rest of the reveals for each day, not to mention enter to win some prizes!
Best card ever.

ReplyDeleteSuper fun card!
ReplyDeleteLove it!
ReplyDeleteLove it!
ReplyDeleteI love alphabet dies because I like to make my own chipboard letters for scrapbooking (even though I have a ton of stickers and still use them, too). These dies are a must-have!
ReplyDeleteThis card really caught my eye,
ReplyDeletebecause the font was so cool!
I never thought about making my own Thickers. I have refused to buy more than a couple of packs for the reason you said-about running out of vowels. I really resent when I have alpha stickers I can't use because there are no E's!!! Thanks for the die set and the idea to make my own :-)
Super fun card...love it!!!
ReplyDeleteOkay-you are the BOMB!! I LOVE this card. I cannot believe that you not only can spell this but got it all on a card front. AMAZING!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the alpha die set! They look like a great size for cards too!
ReplyDeleteFabulous card - what a great way to show off the new Journalling Alpha dies!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE THIS CARD!!!! Simply amazing my dear.
ReplyDeleteSuper amazing card
ReplyDeleteYay! You can't read this and not sing hehehe! Love the font of these, and hello love making your own thickers!
ReplyDeleteSuper, stinkin' fun! Love those letters! I have Thickers running out my ears; but even though I've still got a million vowels, I LOVE the idea here! Great job, girl!
ReplyDeleteSo excited to see this die set. Very unique and i have the same problem with alphabet stickers...great solution you designed.
ReplyDeleteYou've designed such a simple alpha font that can be used for any occasion! I love the idea of making your own Thickers. And your card is so fun!!
ReplyDeleteAWESOME alphas and SERIOIUSLY AWESOME card Miriam!!!
ReplyDeleteTHIS Thickers ADDICT is SUPER EXCITED and INSPIRED!!!
There is nothing atrocious or precocious about your SUPERCALIFRAGILISTICEXPIALIDOCIOUS card :)
... can't get it out of my head now ...
So dang cool!! These alphas rock! I love that they are so big!!! Gosh, so so so enjoy this graphically delightful card you whipped up! Hooray for fun foam DIY! :)
ReplyDeleteI agree! Better to cut your own alphas! And my fave are the two and skinny. Love your Bible stamps and these dies are a perfect addition!!
