YNS June New Release Blog Hop!

I'm so happy you've joined us for this month's release! It's full of sweet goodies... new stamps, new dies, and new gumdrops!! Are you ready to see it all?!
For my first project, I did something a little different... I used just the small snail image from the new Waddles Gardening Fun set, and made some simple envelope seals for my daughters. They have a few pen pals they keep in touch with, and they always like to decorate their envelopes with Washi Tape before popping them in the mail. I thought these would be fun for them to use, too.
I have lots of sheets of labels laying around, so I cut one up and stamped the words "Snail Mail" onto one side of each label. The snails are colored with some fun rainbow hues, cut out with the coordinating Waddles Gardening Fun Die Set, and stuck on the labels with some thick glue dots... I wanted to add a little dimension to the stickers, but not so much that they would fall apart when going through the mail.
Up next, I've used my favorite set from this release... Fairytale Homes. These little girlies are so cute, and thier petite size (about 1 1/2 inches tall each) makes them fit for just about any project!
I colored up the cute little fairy, cut her out with the coordinating Fairytale Homes Die Set, and popped her up in the center of one of the dies from the new Doily Trio One Die Set... soooo pretty! I think I'll be using this set A LOT! :)
The other layers were cut using the Stitched Square Die Set, and I scattered a few of the new MATTE GUMDROPS around the image (these are from the Milk and Cookies Gumdrops Set).

And I LOVE the snail mail labels!! How fabulous that your girls have pen pals! I had pen pals growing up - and still have one today. It's not something that I hear much about anymore - so yay for your girls!!

Could add one of these labels too - to
jazz up the envelope.
The fairy is darling.
Love the coloring.
thanks for sharing.
Take Care!

Your labels for your daughters' penpal letters is such a clever and fun idea. Love it!! Your Fairytale card is sweet, sweet, sweet. Thanks for sharing (& sorry for the possible double message).
Great idea!
Your fairy card is so sweet!
Hugs! xx
