I’m welcoming October with open arms!!! Yep, open arms along with a new Die of the Month – One Kind Word Alphabet Collage. So here’s the scoop, on Saturday October 5th which coincidentally happens to be World Card Making Day – the creative team and I are going to have a blog hop to give you a little bit of inspiration on how to use the Die of the Month. Ssshhhh, don’t tell anyone but I’m going to be giving away 4 Dies of the Month that include any month up to and including the September Die of the Month. All you have to do is leave a comment on each Creative Team Members Blog for more chances to win. We’ll pool all the comments together and randomly pick four. The giveaway is open to anyone in the world – more on that on October 5th.
Inspiration for One Kind Word Alphabet Collage
It was an easy inspiration for One Kind Word Alphabet. I’m the kind of person who hangs out in the card aisle for hours reading sentiments – just looking for the exact, right one. It’s the same with handmade cards – there is normally a word that sums it all up. Voila, One Kind Word. It just so happens to house an entire alphabet and the die that alphabet sits in will make it’s own smaller collage card. I love it that the letters can be used to spell out any full phrase sentiment you want.
I created a video to show you a unique way the alphabet can be used and a fool proof way to get that pristine placement. Beyond that, on October 5th, I’ll show you additional cards.

I’m just so tickled with the whimsy of this. My mind is revving with a million uses – finally an alphabet to use with my journals :-)
Well, that’s my shares for you with the October 2019 Die of the Month until Friday, October 5th with the sweet inspiration from the Creative Team!
So hey, if you don’t mind giving me some advice. I would like to arrange giveaways more often than I’m currently doing. Are you surfing Instagram these days for giveaways or have giveaways pretty much gone by the wayside. What would you like for me to give away? Where is the best place to do giveaways?
I think a give away through your blog would be best. That way people like me that subscribe would link to the blog and find out who won. I don’t do a lot with Instagram. As to what to give away, that’s up to you, but I always hoped to be the winner of one of your beautiful cards when you were giving one away weekly. I love the new alphabet set and am looking forward to the blog hop.
I like giveaways on blogs. I am on IG but it sometimes doesn’t work right for me.
I hope you never get tired of hearing hoe fabulous your designs and cards are to me!!! Love all the options this design offers!!!!! Thank you!
Becca I adore all of your dies! I would be thrilled to have this alphabet set, even tho I have at least 5 to 7 others, none of them are so delicate and the set looks like you could fit many letters on a line, I hate when I run out of space because the letters are so fat or wide. I will be here on the 5th hoping to win a set because I’m too poor this mon9to buy it.. :(
Amazing cards this alphabet die is so handy in all card making.
As always, Becca, you are such an inspiration. Every die, every sample, every card gives me such encouragement to keep creating. Thank you so much!
Hi Becca. I’m not a solid visitor to IG, but I’m a visitor to your blog when I see you pop up in my email inbox. I just ordered the hot foil alpha, so this one is going to be fun to add to my stash. I have all of your monthly dies and always look forward to seeing what the next month will bring. I’m obsessed with the 3D boxes. ALL of them. Can we have more sentimentents? Birthday, get well, sympathy? Any way to stretch the boxes and a reason to make them.
I have also made the boxes into ‘birthday cards’ using just two the the slats. It’s super cute and much easier to mass produce. Thank you for sharing your creative mind. It makes us ALL look good!
Hope you’re back in your creative space!
Hugs, Diana
Lovely set, Becca! I can see why you are tickled with it. So versatile, too!
BEAUTIFUL, Becca! LOVED seeing how you got those alphabet in their places so easily! AND ALL of your other creations too! You MUST TELL TOO, WHERE you get your embellishments???? Do you have a favorite spot to find them?
As for Giveaways, I like them RIGHT HERE on your blog. I don’t do any other social media. OF COURSE, others do all the other forms of Social Media, I’m SURE they would enjoy them there too. So another words, I am no expert or person to ask! LOL Looking forward to seeing the teams work!!! ;)<3
Hi, Becca,
I like to compose my own sentiments and many times will write them in calligraphy. More often, I’m in a hurry and look for stamps, dies or stickers to complete my cards. This month’s DOM is so different and helps fill this need.
To answer your query, I look for giveaways on your blog and your creations are the best ever giveaways. I have one of your cards and it is precious to me (displayed behind glass!).
I’ve been getting my dies organized and I am in awe of how many beautiful dies I have. I could probably create forever with what I have BUT I love, love, love the excitement of enjoying all your new inspiration.
Love and blessings, Sandy
Cute cards, Becca. Loads of possibility with this set!
Hi Becca,
Your card is beautiful as usual. I love ALL your work and designs. Unfortunately our dollar is not in the right place at present to buy them.
I am looking for a new die cutting machine preferably electric.
Can you please tell me the one you are using or recommend one?
Love & blessings,
Marcia
I love your “sampler” card with this fabulous new set!! I am personally more interested on posts on IG.
What a creative way to add alpha dies to cardstock. I always had trouble lining them up. This method makes it look easy. I don’t usually surf the internet for giveaways. However, I get excited when I see you post a blog. I look forward to what you are creating next. You are so special and I appreciate all you do.
Absolutely stunning samples! Alphabet dies are so versatile, and this is a beauty. Looking forward to WCD. I’ve seen other crafters use Rafflecopter to manage giveaways on their blogs.
Oh Becca, What a fantastic alphabet set! Your samples are, as always, gorgeous! I’m looking to seeing what your design team come up with.
I don’t use any social media and so my personal preference for any giveaways would be this blog.

Good morning Becca, Really love the cards. The letters inspire me to make my own sentiments in my own words .
As for giveaways, you are so sweet to do such a wonderful thing. I of course would love a chance to win anything that has to do with card / scrapbooking but you asked how I feel about the give a ways. So here goes, I don’t always have time to go to other people’s blog to enter for a chance to win something and when I do I can’t always figure out how to comment on there anyway. I do not do social media such as facebook or instagram or any other site like that . It has always seemed like a place that encourages gossip and unkind actions. I just don’t have time in my life to live in other people’s drama. You are the only person I haven’t met that I actually enjoy keeping in touch with on the internet and that is because I believe you have such a wonderful heart for God and that someday we will meet in Heaven.
Well, there is my voice to add to the others, hope it helps. God bless…Denice with a “c”
Sweet and endearing! There are so many options with individual letters. Hugs
