Hi peeps and welcome to day 1 of The Ton anniversary release blog hop. From January 5 to January 8, 2019 we are celebrating The Ton's 4th anniversary with some fantastic line up.
Effie has introduced 9 new designs for this release. There are some free gifts with purchase promotions ongoing. Head over to The Ton Stamps' blog for more details.
For today's hope, I am playing with my two favorites!!
First up, is this beauty using Smiling Cosmos. Peeps, this set is awesome! So fun to color and I sure love the way my card turned out.
Originally, I was going to use to do the sentiment in the flower color. You know, layer it up and then use the die cut word to create tone on tone sentiment. But, while doing the layer, I really like the way the white sentiment stands out against the colorful background. So, I decided to keep it white and use the die cut letters for a second card.
The sentiment Hope Your Day Is As and As You Are is from previous release Haute Stacks set. I actually got brave enough to cut the sentiment apart, so I can use them to customize my sentiment on this card. And, yay... I am still breathing! LOL, it was a bit nerve wrecking for me to actually cut stamp apart!!
Here's the second card using the colored die cut letters from making the first card. Leave the rest black and white and I think it lends certain elegance. Basically, this card is flip version of the first card. ;)
I simply lined up the letters to the flowers lines. Oh yes, using Misti definitely help in stamping the flowers in same exact position as the first card. So glad, I haven't moved the stamp from my Misti when I switched idea in the middle.
Long, long time ago I sent request to Effie to create bouquet with lantern and as always by the time she came up with the design and created Special Day Lantern set, it makes my jaw dropped.
I stamped and heat embossed the lantern with Rose gold embossing powder. This set can be used for any occasion. From wedding to birthday to sympathy card, the option is plenty!!
Without further delay, here's a complete list for today's hop. Thank you all so much for stopping by here and I hope you enjoy today's inspiration. Have a blessed weekend everyone!

Your coloring is amazing as always. The flower card is stunning, and I really like the lanterns with the long, vertical card.
That was sweet of her to design a stamp set for you! Your cards are beautiful! Trying to find a nice oriental themed stamp set. Maybe Effie could come up with something along that line! Thanks for sharing!
I really love the cosmos card with the white letters. I don’t know why I don’t think to do blue flowers. So pretty!
Your cards are beautiful! I love the blues and teals in the first card and then with the black and white in the second card! The colors you used in the third card bring such a peaceful, softness to it!
Gorgeous cards! I love all of them but especially the first one where you did the flowers in shades of blue! Thanks for the inspiration!
3 gorgeous cards you have made Vera! Great idea to use the letters from the first card on the second one. That lantern stamp is magnificent! I love the peacefulness it exudes, I think I really need that stamp in my collection!
Beautiful cards! Florals are my favorite so its easier to fall in love 😀
Your lantern card is absolutely stunning! Such a unique stamp set!
yay for requesting lantern stamps!
Gorgeous cards. The colors are awesome and I love your take on the lanterns!
I really like your Cosmos cards. They are such cheerful blooms. You know, when I saw the small images of the stamp sets on the Ton Page at the beginning of the blog hop, I wasn't really sure what the one stamp set was about. But now that I've seen it used I think it is more than wonderful. Lanterns with candles & a bouquet of flowers - who can ask for more? Your card is lovely.
These are all beautiful cards Vera but I have to admit the lantern card is my fave. This is the most beautiful lantern I have ever seen in a stamp.
Your cards are amazing, Vera. They show the products of this release so well. tfs
So beautiful!! All are fabulous, but I really love the lantern card; so elegant!
that lantern stamp is becoming a must have.
