Riley and Co Release Day One, Blog Hop and SALES!

Happy Monday! Today is the beginning of the new release week for Riley and Co!  All of us on the Riley and Co design team are also participating in the CardMaker blog hop....so hop along and you will find loads of inspiration along the way!  If you would like to start at the beginning, you can start on the CardMaker's blog.

My first card features some fantastic new images from the Mushroom Lane Collection:
House with Clothesline ML2405 is a sweet little image that I used for the front of my three panel card.   I colored the image with Copic markers and fussy cut it. 

The second house is Mushroom Lane's House 1 ML-2407.  For each of these houses I cut out the window panes and lined them with some glimmery vellum for a softer look that mimics glass.

Finally, for the center panel I have the new Mushroom Lane Polka Dot House 2 ML-2414.  These are such a hoot to color up!  A simple color change and you have a whole new neighborhood!!

Also releasing today are the new Dress Up Riley Collection and Dies as well as new Funny Bones and Word Bubble Rectangle Dies!!  When I saw the fun sombrero I just had to dress up Riley for the occasion and add some fun tacos to make this fun card.  I used paper piecing for his sweater.

Funny Bones - Laughing So Hard - RWD-529
Red Rubber Basic Stamps (DUR1)
Basic Die Set (RD001)
Clear Accessories Starter Set (RCLR02)
Accessories Starter Die Set (RD02)

 And finally....just one more Mushroom Lane card I need to share....with a fun surprise!! This is House with Cellar ML-2404.

Here you can see the little surprise...Chibitronics Lights light up the windows that I cut out and lined with blue vellum.  It is so fun to bring the little dwelling to life.  Also, check out the button that Tanya sent along with our release.  I cut the button back off and attached it to the card with glue dots.

I hope you have enjoyed a little peek at what I have been busy with behind the scenes....I have a lot of fun stuff coming to share....I'd love to hear which of today's cards was your favorite!!

The next stop on this hop is Katie Gehring's blog.
