Happy Birthday Thinlits Die

Leave a reply

I’m still recovering from an upper respiratory infection and that means that I have nothing energetic planned today beyond a little walk and a lot of crafting. Sounds like the perfect day, right?! Today I wanted to share how easy the new Happy Birthday Thinlits die makes it to create a fun card.

I used the tranquil tide for the happy birthday thinlits die and it easily fell out of the die. The DSP is a piece from the new Eastern Palace Specialty DSP and I matted that with a more tranquil tide. I layered this all onto one of the new very vanilla notecards and the card was done. It would be perfect for the times when you need a birthday card in 3 minutes flat!

I can’t wait for the new multipurpose adhesive sheets which are coming in my order – that will make it even easier. For this one, I used a dauber, multipurpose glue and the silicone craft mat.

Colorful Seasons

Today’s card showcases the new set Colorful Seasons and it has a message for all of us so excited about the new catalog!

Fun card, right? I used berry burst and crumb cake for the stamping and the same colors for the matting and the card base. Easy and effective.

One tip: when using photopolymer stamps with a large area of ink, stamp using the stampin’ pierce mat. It gives a cushion that is missing with a photopolymer stamp and gives a better image. I cut my grid paper into quarters so that I have a little piece on top of my pierce mat. I can’t really stamp without the lines on the grid paper to help me line things up!

I put in my order yesterday before noon because the site was available a little early and it was shipped yesterday. So excited! And it’s a big order because I took advantage of the extra $35 of stampin’ rewards for an order of $350 or me. Can’t wait for it to get here with all my new awesome goodies! Oh yes, just breathe!

The new catalog is (almost) live!

Leave a reply

Happy June! The old catalog is no more so I hope that you got everything you wanted from it and the new catalog is almost live. Stampin’ Up! is currently updating their systems to change from the old to the new and will be ready to take our orders by noon MT at the latest! I have my order ready to go… I also have a bookmark to celebrate the new catalog – I’m sending one to all of the people that I sent catalogs to. If you want a bookmark and a catalog, let me know. This uses the new Daisy Delight stamp set with the Bunch of Blossoms and showcases all five of the new in colors along with the new in color ribbon.

I started with a 5 inch by 1 3/4 inch piece of whisper white and used the scallop tag topper punch to make the top pretty. Then I used berry burst for the sentiment from Bunch of Blossoms. Next were the two daisy stamps; I used the outline in full strength and stamped off once the fill in stamp. I used all five of the new colors – berry burst, fresh fig, tranquil tide, lemon lime twist and powder pink. I added a piece of the new berry burst ribbon and the bookmark was complete. Easy, fun and a good reminder of all the new in colors.

I can include the link to the catalog so that you can look at it – you just can’t order for a couple more hours. But you can definitely put your wish list together!
