Sent with Love Dahlia and Winner!

Thank you all so much for your kind words about my new Layers of Color Stamp Line. It delights me that so many of you are excited about the re-release of my former TAC stamps.

Before I announce the winner, I have another card for you with the new LOC stamps. This one uses the larger dahlia in the Dotted Dahlias set and sentiment from Sent with Love. Like my card earlier this week, I colored with Copics and layered the dahlia to produce this.

The papers are again Melissa Frances. Aren't those papers just lovely? This was my very first purchase of their products and I'm in love! I got mine from Emma's Paperie (link below) and they have a huge selection of Melissa Frances products.

Here you can see more the layers. I curled up the petals slightly.

And now, the winner of my new release giveaway is...

#44 Gini (Beadz)

Please email me, via tab above, with your info so I can forward it to Layers of Color. Thank you all for playing along. I also have a referral contest going on now in my Nina B Designs Facebook page. Refer your friends to like it and I will pick a random winner who, along with his/her referrer, will win one of my LOC Christmas stamps.

Layers of Color's Nina B Designs Release Hop

Thank you for joining us today for the Layers of Color's release of my former Angel Company stamps.

 After TAC closed, I received so many emails inquiring about my designs. I was disappointed when TAC didn't work out, but was encouraged by the response to my stamps there. Even better, I met several new friends who were TAC fans, so not all is lost...not at all! And now some of these TAC stamps can be purchased through Layers of Color. And because the plates are different between two companies (LOC's are bigger), I have added new images to the set that complement the others in each set. It's great to have a second chance at designing the same sets :). I hope you will like them, too.

I have a few photos to share with you today. My first card uses Dotted Dahlias, which was colored with Copics, as the main focal point. I also used the Fairy Wishes set as a background. The sentiment is from the Beautiful Lace set.

Here is the close up of the dahlia. I had so much fun coloring this.

My second card is a little more involved than my usual cards, but I had so much fun putting it together. The butterfly is from Fairy Wishes set. The word "Mom" is from the Sweet Silhouettes set and the "i love you" is from The Love Chapter set.

I also found some burlap fabric to play with and die cut that using Spellbinders Heart Nestabilities. The birdcage is also die cut (links below). The papers are Webster's Pages and the bling is from Want2Scrap.

As with any LOC hop, we also have giveaways! Leave a comment here on this post and tell me which of my new sets do you like the most. I will pick a winner who will receive that set for free. You have till midnight tonight to enter. The winner will be announced tomorrow! I also have a referral contest going on now in my Nina B Designs Facebook page. Refer your friends to like it and I will pick a random winner who, along with his/her referrer, will win one of my LOC Christmas stamps.

LOC Sneak Peek: My favorite card!

I've been enjoying making cards with the new release sets by Layers of Color (available Nov 16!). I believe this is my favorite of what I've made so far. I used the Dotted Dahlias (flower and leaves), Elegant Labels (label frame) and Dotted Peonies (verse) on this card.The label frame was die cut using Spellbinders Labels 10.

I had so much fun making this layered dahlia, which you can see better here. I used seam binding for a bow, but didn't scrunch it up. I like that it's so soft and feminine.

Here's a close up of the flower, which was colored with Copic markers.

I hope you will join us for the new release hop on Nov 16th! It will surely be full of inspiration and prize giveaways! Have a great weekend!
