The Ton Spring 2018 Release - Day 1

Hello, and welcome to my blog and day one of The Ton's new Spring 2018 Release!

This week The Ton is releasing 14 new stamps and coordinating die sets and five brand new stand alone dies.  I'll be showing off some sneak peeks today and tomorrow and then join us for a MEGA BLOG HOP on Wednesday!  We have some amazing guest designers in the lineup for our blog hop and also some great giveaways so be sure to hop along with us on April 4th!  All new products will be available for purchase on April 3 and all release orders will begin to ship on April 9.


One of the things that The Ton is known for is their amazing florals designed by Effie Cho.  Today I wanted to give you a quick peek at a couple of the new sets because ummm..... hello, it's spring!!

Starting with the beautiful:

Large Florals: Heritage Rose

 Look at this beauty!  This large layered rose makes a HUGE statement on the front of an A2 size card.  A single rose can hold it's own or you can create a whole stamped background of soft colored roses, like I did here using the following inks from The Ton:  Ballet Slippers, Orchid Crush, Grand Fuchsia, Lofty Mint, Bright Emerald, Hot Tourmaline, Hampton White Pigment.

I just couldn't resist popping one up on this card with a little dimensional tape.

And why leave the inside of your card blank?  Make a bold statement by stamping a rose inside too!

Next,  I'd like to introduce you to the gorgeous new stamp set:

Large Dahlia 3

These Large Dahlias have gorgeous fine lined details that are easy to stamp and easy to color.  I used Kuretake watercolor markers to color these.

For both my cards today I made little sentiment strips using The Ton's new Beautiful Bettas stamp set.

Using a couple of The Ton's other dies;  Geometric Circles Coverplate and the Bold General Greeting Wordplate Dies, I created a white, tone on tone background to adhere these cut out Large Dahlias.

Aren't these Dahlias fun? The color choices are limitless with Dahlias because they naturally come in so many vibrant colors.  Just google "Dahlias" and you'll see endless possibilities in color combinations!
