Festive Flurry Flip Card

Today's beautiful Christmas Flip Card was created with the new Label Card Thinlits Die.  I've been on a Soft Sky kick lately...I love this color!!  Especially with the Silver Glimmer Paper and Frosted Finishes Embellishments to create this soft and sparkly Christmas card.  

You'll notice that I extended the width of the card to create an additional flap, which allows me room to write on the inside.  I have step-by-step written instructions to explain how I did it.  Download Festive Flurry Flip Card Instructions

This is everything that comes with the Label Card Thinlits Die.

What makes Photopolymer stamps so great?

• They're entirely transparent for perfect placement every time! 
• They are durable. The photopolymer material is designed to last. 
• Can you say sticky? (Don't worry; in a good way.) These stamps stick amazingly well to our clear blocks.
• They're age tested. They won't yellow or cloud up over time. 
• They use FDA, food-safe material. How far can you stretch your stamping creativity? 
• We could go on, but we'll let you try them for yourself.

They are clearly a great choice!

The Fine Print
Photopolymer stamps will be offered on a trial basis.  Based on popularity, we hope to release more photopolymer stamp sets over the coming months.  At this time we don't plan on offering a line of photopolymer sets as expansive as our wood-mount and clear-mount lines.

All photopolymer will be packaged in cello bag w/insert, but don't forget you can store them in our clear cases.

Tag a Bag Bundle & Big Shot Magnetic Platform!

I am excited to see so many great new product bundles in the new catalog...and this is one of them!  It is the Tag a Bag Bundle (pg. 159) and includes:

• 10 food safe Gift Bags (cool chevron print) 
• Tag a Bag Accessory Kit, which includes:
  • 10 Large Base Tags
  • 10 Medium Builder Tags
  • Baker's Twine in 3 colors (Tangerine Tango, Crushed Curry & Bermuda Bay)
  • 10 Mini Clothespins
  • 40 Dimensionals
  • 5 Smoky Slate Self-Adhesive Strips  

You can purchase the bags and accessory kit separately, but the bundle saves you 15%!!  You can also choose to get this bundle with the Tag a Bag Gift Boxes.  

To decorate my gift bag, I added Bermuda Bay 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon, punched butterflies and a sentiment from the Itty Bitty Banners stamp set die-cut with it's coordinating Bitty Banners Framelits.  

Which leads me to my FAVORITE NEW TOOL...the Big Shot Magnetic Platform!!!

In my personal opinion, the Magnetic Platform is a "must-have" tool for die-cutting with framelits.  It has a powerful hold to keep your framelits securely in place when die-cutting. See it used in this short video demonstration...

 

Big Shot Magnetic Platform   Item #130658   $39.95

Graduation Cap Money Card

This is my Fun Fold Graduation Card.....I will be making several of these for my nieces and nephews who will be graduating in May.  The idea was shared by a fellow demonstrator, Dawn Olchefski, but I changed mine up a little and added the mini envelope to slip some cash or a check inside.  

I've included the written supply list, cutting measurements and step-by-step instructions for you.  I'm working on a video tutorial as well...check back within the next day or so and I should have it ready.

Two Tags Bookmark

These cute little bookmarks were the 3D project we made at Stamp Club last month.  They were made using the Two Tags Bigz Die and Floral District Designer Series Paper.  They're super easy to make!

My friend, Donna, has been my roommate at Convention for the past three years.  Every year she makes a darling gift for me...this year it was this bookmark and a really nice pocket calendar (that I have somehow managed to misplace, so I can't show it off right now).  I really appreciate her thoughtfulness : )

Everyday Enchantment Petite Purse

As promised, here is another Petite Purse idea.  I die-cut this one from the Everyday Enchantment Designer Paper offered during Sale-a-Bration and added the matching brad and a couple of punched flowers to embellish it.  The purse is really easy to assemble, which makes it great for party and shower favors...you can easily make several of them in no time!  They'll hold chocolates, candies, or even a small gift...and they're so cute!!! 

Watch this short video to see how easy it is to die-cut and assemble...

Fresh Vintage Gift Bags

I love these!  My little gift bags were made with the Fresh Vintage Stamp Set and Wisteria Wonder and Pool Party In Color Designer Paper.  I think Basic Black is very striking against these colors.  The Fresh Vintage Stamp Set is one of the Free Sale-A-Bration products you can choose when you purchase $50 in Stampin' Up! merchandise before March 31st.  There are only 2 days left!!!  Click here to go to my Stampin' Up! website and order online.

This is the 3D project that my Stamp Club members made this week.  I still have room for members, so if you're local (Overland Park, KS) and would like to learn to make really nice projects like this each month, please come join us! 

These would make cute party or shower favors too!  Watch my video to see how easy they are to  make, or click on the link to download written instructions.
