Happy Little Things Sneak Peek

We have a bunch of NEW Online Exclusives launching in less than a week.  Shop for these products on March 5 in my Online Store.  Today I'm sharing three brand new products coming and they're pretty amazing!  The first is the Happy Little Things Bundle, this incredible stamp set is full of bold, block greetings, out lines, and coordinating smaller greetings.  Plus the dies feature two fun banner and label greetings.  You'll love this one!  It's a great one to have on hand for any occasion!  I love how the block greetings and the outlines layer perfectly! 

You'll also notice some beautiful DSP on this card.  That is from the NEW  Flowering Zinnia's DSP.  This DSP is packed with bold patterns and bright colors.  It's right up my alley!  The new Shiny Sequins are amazing too!  They come in four colors, Lemon Lime Twist, Lemon Lolly, Melon Mambo and Pumpkin Pie.  I'm here for all of those colors!  This fun fold card is a vertical gate fold.  I have a belly band around it that slides on and off.  The flowers are from the Paper Florist Dies in our Annual Catalog.

Sale-a-Bration Sunday Watercolor Melon Hello Card-VIDEO

It's our final Sale-a-Bration Sunday!  Sale-a-Bration ends this Thursday, February 29, 2024.  This is your last call to grab any of the freebies you still have on your wish list.  Today I'm finishing the series with the Watercolor Melon Set.  This one is adorable! I love the fun images.  This one doesn't have greetings so I'm pulling in greeting from the Sending Smiles Set and I'm using the Mini Alphabet Dies.  I wanted to give my stamped images a little more depth and dimension, so I'm using the 'baby wipe' technique to stamp the images.  This is an old technique but a good one!  Simply grab a few baby wipes and fold them into a little stack.  Add a few drops of ink refill in your desired colors and stamp your images like normal.  This gives incredible texture and depth.  For my greens I used a combo of Granny Apple Green and Lemon Lime Twist.  For my pinks I used Melon Mambo and Poppy Parade.  You'll be able to stamp quite a few images with the ink on the baby wipe so have lots of paper ready and stamp now and save them to use later.  

Make your own.

Granny Apple Green 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" score the long side at 4 1/4"

Melon Mambo 5 1/4" x 2 1/2" embossed with Fern Embossing Folder

Out Of This World Birthday

Raise your hand if you love Designer Series Paper.  Yep. Me too!  Sometimes it's so gorgeous it's hard to cut it.  As we start thinking about a new catalog, it's coming in May.  I know that some products will be retiring.  Typically, if history proves correct, the DSP's will be retiring.  I have a LOT of the Stargazing DSP left, not because I don't use it but because I LOVE it so much I've bought multiple packages.  I decided I needed to start using my DSP.  Why do I love this DSP so much?  The colors, the theme, the art but mostly because this is a stand alone DSP, you don't need anything but a greeting to make a stunning card with just the DSP.  

The background is the DSP, the planet is fussy cut from the DSP.  Together they make a pretty stellar card.  LOL, see what I did there.  I added a simple greeting from the Throughout The Year Set.  If you're looking for cards to mass produce this is one of them.  Simple and quick!  I have a full supply list below.  You can shop for these products in my Online Store.

Hot Air Balloon Beauty

It's not an unusual sight to see a hot air balloon or two dotting the sky in Albuquerque on any given day, and every year Albuquerque plays host to the International Balloon Fiesta so this set was perfect!  I love it so much!  Between the stamp set and the dies the balloon possibilities are pretty much endless!  Today I'm using all the products in the Lighter Than Air Suite, that includes the Hot Air Balloon Bundle, Lighter Than Air DSP, Rainbow Dots and Three Color Baker's Twine.  

The perfect partner for this bundle is the Basic Borders Dies in the in the Annual Catalog.  The cloud border is the perfect border for so many projects but it's ideal for this bundle.  I made my balloons colorful and bright to stand out.  Don't miss this bundle!  There are so many occasions this bundle would be great for.  I have full supply list below.  You can shop for these products in my Online Store.

Sale-a-Bration Sunday Heartfelt Hellos Enjoy Card-VIDEO

We're nearing the end of the Sale-a-Bration Sunday Series.  Today I'm sharing the Heartfelt Hellos Set.  This set coordinates with the Heartfelt Hexagon Punch.  This punch is currently unavailable so I wanted to share a really fun card that didn't use the much. There's no reason why you can't have this set now and get the punch later.  In addition to the set I'm using the Layered Florals Embossing Folder.  This beautiful Embossing folder is available in the Mini Catalog.  I used my Stampin' Blends to highlight the flowers on this amazing folder.  The greeting was stamped three times in each of the three colors and then I trimmed out just the enjoy part.
