DeNami Design Sneak Peeks


Hey there, blog friends!!! It's time for a BRAND NEW release at DeNami Design!!! WOOHOO!!!!! Today Emily, Pattie, and I are sharing some sneak peek projects featuring several of the ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE new chickie images that will be available for purchase beginning July 10, 2013 at 9AM PST! Warning: If you are a chickie fan, you are going to WANT (or perhaps you prefer the term "NEED") them ALL! They are soooo stinkin' cute!!!

My first project features the new Snorkel Chickie! I paired him/her up with several other sea-themed images from DeNami Design and created my own wrapping paper (see the end of this post for a complete list of supplies).


This was such a simple and fun project! First I gathered up the stamps and ink I wanted to use. Then, I cut a piece of white bulletin board paper that was large enough to cover the box I was going to wrap. I set the paper flat on my work surface and went to town stamping and coloring. Here's a look at the stamped sheet of paper:


Then, I wrapped my gift box and tied on some twine! I also made a tiny tag to go along with the package:


The tag flips open to reveal this message:




Isn't this a darling way to wrap a gift for a summertime birthday?!?!

My second project features the new Hockey Chickie!!!


Isn't he AWESOME?!?! The "Go Team" pocket is the perfect size to hold a gift card (I'm thinking sporting goods shop, ice skating rink, etc.) The black and white stripes are reminiscent of the stripes on the referees' shirts. And of course...growing up in Pittsburgh...I'm a Penguins fan, so the colors HAD to be black/gold/white/silver. Love how you could easily change up the colors to match those of the recipient's favorite team!

My final project for today features one of the new holiday chickie images: Carolling Chickies!!! Here's a simple tag I created with this sweet little image (and a sentiment from one of the new holiday stamp sets too)!!! Note: On the back of the tag I also stamped To: and From: (another MUST HAVE stamp to add to your collection *wink*).




That's it for my sneak peeks today!!! I hope you are as excited about the new release as I am!!!

And...of course it wouldn't be release week without some FABULOUS giveaways!!! Check this out:

HI Lisa,
Your projects are so cute! I especially love that first card and how you made the chickies float upside down to make it look like they were really under the water. Sooo cute!! Each of your creations are unique and I love how versatile these chickie stamps are. Thanks for the inspiration and you should enter these into my anything goes Funday Friday challenge on my blog below! Have a great day!

Hugs,
