Carry On Sneak Peek

Posted on

Good Saturday morning to everyone! I’m off to Manhattan today to see some of my peeps. Today’s card is a sneak peek at some of the new items from the 2012-2013 Catalog from Stampin’ Up! The set that I used for this card is called Carry On and it’s one of the new Host(ess) Sets. I really like it because the font is great and the images go with each saying. It also features two of the new In-Colors from the 2012-2014 set, Gumball Green and Midnight Muse. I started with one of the Note Card size cards for my card base. I added a piece of Basic Grey Card Stock that I ran through my Big Shot using the Perfect Polkadots Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. A piece of the new Gumball Green 3/8″ Stitched Satin Ribbon (Sneak Peek) is run down the middle from top to bottom. I stamped the greeting from the new Carry On Stamp Set (Sneak Peek) in Midnight Muse (sneak Peek 2012-2014 In-Colors) and backed it with a piece of Midnight Muse Card Stock (Sneak Peek 2012-2014 In-Colors). I then cut two 1/2″ pieces of Gumball Green Card Stock (Sneak Peek 2012-2014 In-Colors) and used the 1″ Square Punch to flag the ends and adhered them to the back. Some Stampin’ Dimensionals are used to mount it to the card. I stamped the image from the Carry On Stamp Set (Sneak Peek) in Gumball Green (Sneak Peek 2012-2014 In-Colors) and mounted it on a piece of Midnight Muse Card Stock (Sneak Peek 2012-2014 In-Colors) punched out with the 3/4″ Circle Punch. I can’t wait for you to see the new Host(ess) Sets in the catalog, I love them all! Thanks for stopping by and have an awesome day! 🙂

Happy Birthday Heather!

Posted on

Good morning all, it’s FRIDAY! Here comes the weekend and I can’t wait! Yesterday was my friend Heather’s birthday. She is a sweet and wonderful person and real girlie girl so I figured that it was the perfect opportunity to use my new Petite Purse Bigz Die. I used a piece of Perfect Plum Card Stock for the purse. I added the holes for the handle and the Twitterpated Designer Series Paper to the flap before I used Sticky Strip to put the purse together. I used a piece of Whisper White 1/4″ Grosgrain Ribbon (Retired List) over the handle and attached it with two Silver Mini Brads. Around the bottom I used Sticky Strip to adhere some Blushing Bride Ruffled Ribbon (Occasions Mini-Retired). The greeting on the purse is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes Wood Mount Stamp Set and is stamped in Perfect Plum and punched and re-punched with the Word Window Punch. For the card I cut a piece of Perfect Plum to 3″ x 6″, scored it at 3″ and folded it in half. I placed a piece of matching Twitterpated DSP on the front. The greeting is from the Petite Pairs Stamp Set and again is stamped in Perfect Plum, mounted on Perfect Plum and adhered to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I punched out some flowers with the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack and adhered them with some Mini Glue Dots. A Basic Jewels Rhinestones on each flower complete the card. I stamped some flowers from the Itty Bitty Bits Stamp Set on the front of the envelope in Perfect Plum and Blushing Bride (Retired). Heather loved the card and purse and I hope that you enjoyed it too. Have an awesome day! 🙂
