Hi everyone! It’s time for a new release from the Memory Box companies!  The usual beautiful products to work with!

I have two cards to share with you using the NEW Curlicue Plate!  I love it!  So whimsical and fun!  Keep going for my second card using it.

I wanted to use some other NEW dies too… so I made up the New Gentle Rose Watercolor Floral in a couple colors but went with pink from the Memory Box Berry Red 6×6 cardstock pad… it’s February, all things Red!

The NEW Wayfarer Leaves die cut in three colors of green from the Memory Box  Lush Green cardstock 6×6 pad.

The NEW Hugs Tender Script die cut in white and then in Memory Box Glossy Black cardstock.  I love this glossy black.  I’ve about used up my pack!  Not quite an emergency yet. lol  What a pretty font though!  Isn’t it gorgeous?!

I should’ve told my camera to focus on the hugs instead of the flower here.  I am an amateur… worse than an amateur! lol

I die cut the Curlicue Plate in white cardstock, the green panel underneath with the NEW A2 Rectangle Frames Die Set (same Lush Green cardstock pad)  and the oval from vellum using the Memory Box Studio Oval Layers die set.

The pretty rosebuds are from the Birch Press Design Morning Rose and Triple Buds Contour Layers dies released earlier this year.

My next card came about because I had an almost perfect Curlicue Plate die cut!  It’s so hard to throw those away!  So I thought about it and decided to try cutting away the parts that didn’t cut completely the first time.  This plate needs a shim… so I use a piece of copy paper folded in half on top of my cutting plate to run it through… blades up as I always say! (I never use that metal shim)

I thought this turned out fun!  You know me and kraft!  White, pool and whimsy! Oh and staples!

A beautiful NEW butterfly for all the butterfly lovers out there!  Plumed Gypsy Butterfly!

***notice how I used the curlicue from the part I cut off behind the butterfly!  clever… hehe

Hello Rush Script is a NEW sentiment die… love it in that glossy black again…

A new set of nesting dies!  Curved Cap Pinpoint Layers.  I can see this one working for banners too!

I think I remembered everything!  Send me an email or comment if you have any questions!  I don’t mind at all!

I used the Tim Holtz mini stapler to hold the Curlicue cut down but glued in the few pieces of pool color.
