Intro to November Release – Day 2 – Cozy Read
Hi, friends! Hooray! It’s Day 2 of our Introductions to the November release.
We’re getting cozy today. We are going to settle in with books, tea and little desktop details that are fun to mix into all kinds of cards.
First, we’d like to share this quick intro video to the November 5th release from our team! Take it away, team!
Leading off today’s introductions are some new products to work with the popular Open Book Die. With the new Open Book Sunflower Stencil, you can create a beautiful sunflower pattern on the book pages.
You can use traditional colors like Jill Dewey Hawkins did here. The purple background sure makes those pretty flowers pop.
You can also mix things up like Marge Y. did and use a non-traditional color scheme to do your ink blending.
Isn’t that fun? I love the vintage feel her color choices bring!
In addition to the stencil, we’re adding the Open Book Greetings Stamp Set and Open Book Greetings Die to our line-up.
Karen Downs used both to add the perfect finishing touch to this pretty number!
Some other fun products from the November release are the Small Hands Die and the Small Hands Add-ons Die. These dies are great for making a bigger scene with the Open Book products.
- Small Hands Add-ons (die)
- Small Hands (die)
- Tea Time Icons (die)
- Open Book Greetings (stamp, die, combo)
You can customize those hands and arms to match the feel of your project! Marge Y. added lots of bling to the hands on this card. She also created sleeves that match the sunflowers on her book pages.
The hands on Galina Flippenko’s card take the center stage. Not only did she use lots of dies to make the hands, but she added extra detailing with pens. So fun! And doesn’t it look like those pages are going to be turned any second?!
- Small Hands Add-ons (die)
- Small Hands (die)
- Open Book (die)
- Open Book Sunflower (stencil)
- Clearly (die)
- Clearly Sentiments (stamp, die, combo)
Another fun addition to our collection is the Tea Time Icons Die. With this die, you can add a cup of tea to your cards like Karen Downs did here.
- Small Hands Add-ons (die)
- Small Hands (die)
- Tea Time Icons (die)
- Cozy Read Sentiments (stamp, die, combo)
I love how the hands hold the plate so perfectly! And that sentiment? It was created with the Cozy Read Sentiments Stamp Set and Cozy Read Sentiments Matching Die.
And don’t think you are limited to using just the tea cup on a card. Galina Flippenko made the most delightful scene by using several of the Tea Icons Die elements with the Small Hands Die.
Isn’t that fun?! It really looks like you are checking out a conversation between friends.
And speaking of conversations, here’s another fun card by Amanda Rochaix.
- Small Hands (die)
- Tea Time Icons (die)
- Cozy Read Sentiments (stamp, die, combo)
- Subsentiments Forest Friends (paper)
I love how she used some of the same products as Galina but created a completely different card. So cool!
That’s all for Day 2’s Introductions. Come back tomorrow to see more of November’s release. Remember, all the new products will be available at 10 am Arizona time on November 5th, 2026.
