Out With The Old and In With The New
Our new Annual Catalog revealed our brand new die cut machine, the Stampin' Cut & Emboss, to be released at some point this year. It was available starting August 4th for Demonstrators and I've been test driving it for the last few weeks. So far, this looks like a great replacement to my old Big Shot machine. I loved that old machine, but after twelve years of very heavy duty use, it bit the dust a few months ago. I'm so excited to have a … [Read more...] about Out With The Old and In With The New
I Thought Of You
I'm stuck on a Fall kick lately. So, here's one more Fall card... Today's card uses the Love of Leaves bundle again. I love the clean and simple look of these leaves. And the Gilded Autumn paper is so pretty. You can also see just a hint of the Brushed Metallic paper in between the two pattern papers. I used the copper color metallic paper to match the copper ribbon. I promise I'll move on to some other things soon, but I might have just … [Read more...] about I Thought Of You
Hey There, Pumpkin
I was at the store this weekend and noticed they've already got Fall decor out. And it's over 90' degrees outside. I don't know about you, but if it's this hot, I'm not exactly ready to curl up with a plaid blanket by the fireplace and sip my Pumpkin Spice Latte. But that doesn't mean that I can't get out my Fall craft supplies and make a few cute things, just like today's card. My card today uses the Harvest Hellos stamp set and coordinating … [Read more...] about Hey There, Pumpkin
Wishing You Well
Happy Friday! The new Rectangle tins are going to be perfect for the Holidays. The tins are sized big enough to hold credit card sized gift cards or cash of course. I've decorated this one for Autumn. When you make something like this, you want the paper wrap to be taped to itself, rather than to the tin. This allows the recipient to slid the wrap off the tin, instead of ripping it apart. Remember to have your paper seam be on the top … [Read more...] about Wishing You Well
Little Treats Bundle
This year's Holiday Catalog is filled with tons of cute things to make for your treats. I love the mini coffee cups and the variety of tins, but today I'm focusing on the new Little Treat Box dies. This Little Treats box is tiny. I took it with me to shop for candy at the store. It doesn't fit larger candy like the mini M&Ms or Skittles bags. It does fit two of the Hershey Nuggets in it side-by-side standing upright. Or the Hershey … [Read more...] about Little Treats Bundle
Happiness is…
Cooler weather. Unfortunately, it's going to be another week over 90' here. If I think Fall thoughts and make Fall cards, will the temperature drop? Here's hoping! Today's card was inspired by one I saw online. I can't remember who posted it and I think mine is slightly different from what I recall of the other card. I'm still playing with the Love of Leaves Bundle. I think it took me a project or two before I realized the leaf dies made some … [Read more...] about Happiness is…
