Sneak Peek From the January to April Mini Catalog!

This catalog will be available to customers on January 6. 

I made these cards over a week ago, but traveled to see family before I could get them posted. I'm not usually drawn to cute style stamps, but I fell in love with this set and all its coordinating products. Maybe because I have the most adorable 4 year old Great Niece on the planet lol! I had the most fun visiting with family and playing with her!!!!

Made with the Sweet Bugs bundle and the coordinating Ladybug Garden Epoxy Shapes. I stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Stampin' Blends alcohol ink markers, then diecut and popped a few pieces with dimensionals. Zoom in on the ladybug.... isn't that the cutest thing? And... it's kind of puffy but not too prominent to require additional postage.

Made with the Nature's Symphony stamp set and the coordinating Nature's Walk DSP. I used the Stylish Shapes dies and Metallic Textures Rub ons. I pretty much cased this from the catalog.

To shine the spotlight on our December Product of the Month—True Blue Florals 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper, here's a cute project! This versatile paper is perfect for cards, tags, decor, and more! Grab yours and get crafty!

To create a gift bag:

1. Score two pieces of 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper with the same pattern at 3" and 11-1/2", then rotate a quarter turn and score at 3".
2. Fold on all the score lines and cut along one score line of the 3" x 3" square in the corner of the paper to create a tab. Repeat for the 1/2" x 3" corner tab.
3. Assemble the bag by adhering the 3" side of one page to the 1/2" side of the other page. Then tuck in the tabs and adhere the bottom flaps together.
4. To create handles, score two 2-1/2" x 12" strips of Designer Series Paper along the short edge at 3/4" and 1-3/4". Fold at the score lines and adhere together.
5. Adhere the handles to the inside of the bag and reinforce them by adhering a piece of 7-1/2" x 2" cardstock over the ends of each handle inside the bag.

Christmas Cards

 I sure do love the colors in this Traditions of  Christmas Designer Series Paper! I like traditional Christmas colors with a bit of the unexpected, and that's just what this paper delivers. The Secret Sea with Real Red just makes my heart sing:)

Four in One Technique

 This is a fun technique that allows you to make four cards at once. I call it the "Four in One Technique." Yeah, very clever name right? lol  To make it, start off with a 10″ x 7-1/2″ sheet of cardstock that you score down the middle horizontally and vertically. Then you stamp around the edges In a controlled/random pattern. Think collage-ish style as you select stamps. Fellow demo, Mary Mary Nabe used the textured notes stamp set when she did this technique. Those turned out beautifully, but I needed Christmas cards so looked through my stash both current and retired and selected four stamps from different sets. I used the ink colors found in the Designer Paper. After you've stamped around the edges of each quadrant, you trim right on the score lines which gives you four card layers. You adhere these layers to card bases then add a greeting. And voila, you have a pretty card. To jazz mine up a bit, I REALLY decorated the inside, and the envelope flap as well.

inside of card has DSP too

Stamp Sets: Christmas Greenery and Several retired sets

Ink Pads: Secret Sea, Real Red, Old Olive, Pool Party

• Secret Sea card base: 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2,″ score at 4-1/4″ on long side, fold in half.

Tent Card

 

I learned how to make this tent card from Fellow Demo, Robyn Pike and just had to case it! What a pretty fun fold which is also easy to make. The panel with the DSP is simply affixed to the card base with Stampin' Dimensionals. I just made sure to line it up with the card base so that the height was the standard 5-1/2".

Stationery Gift Set

 

This project has been a labor of love and I've had bunches of fun creating it! To make this stationery gift set, I followed a video tutorial by May May Made It. I used two product groups to create mine so that the images and colors would coordinate. The mini slimline cards are new to me and they are kinda cool y'all! I made mine a bit larger than May May did hers. I cut the cards 6-1/2" x 6-1/4" then scored at 3-1/4" which makes a 3-1/4" x 6-1/4" card. Needless to say, Stampin' Up! doesn't sell an envelope for that size card, but you can find them on Amazon.

My Bible Study Christmas Party we always have a Chinese Gift Exchange and this will be my gift this year. There are many different things you can include in the pockets of the tote. I chose a few different things than May May included in hers, and that's the cool thing... there are so many possibilities!

In my Stationery Tote I chose to include the following:

• Two different Post It Pad booklets
• Postage
• Bookmarks
• A calendar
• A collection of stamped sentiments with Tear and Tape on the back for easy attachment to the small slimline cards
• Six slimline cards and envelopes
• Eight A2 cards and envelopes
• A mini legal pad cover with pen and pocket
• Perpetual Birthday Calendar

Autumn Wishes

This is last week's post and video.  I'm not feeling too well right now, but I will get better. There are two versions of this card with different ribbon and sizes. I was changing the measurements until I got it how I wanted it, and of course when making something new, there were mistakes to correct.
