It's really hard to pick a favorite from the new catalog, but this just may be mine. I just love the fact that it is so unique. I've not seen anything done with this Japanese technique. So first of all what is Kintsugi?
Kintsugi ("golden
joinery") is a traditional Japanese technique of repairing broken
pottery with gold lacquer. The mended gold
veins become a celebration of imperfection
instead of hiding it. As a philosophy, it
treats breakage and repair as part of the history of an
object, rather than something to disguise.
Stampin' Up! has an entire product suite designed around this beautiful art form. There's a stamp set, dies, DSP, Embellishments, and an Embossing Folder.
As you can see below, I wrote a brief description of Kintsugi, and I plan to put it on the inside of each card I make with this gorgeous bundle. If you don't have one, I'd love to be your Demonstrator. If you order the Kintsugi bundle, and designate me as your Demo, I'll send you the PDF for the description.
