Labels Collection

Just wanted to share a quick card with you today using one of Stampin' Up!'s newer products - the Labels Collection Framelit Die. There are so many, many creative ideas for this die; but for this card I combined it with another wonderful item - the Designer Frames Embossing Folder.

I love the dimension embossing gives a card, so I added a little to the background die also.  Mocha Morning DSP pairs up with Everyday Enchantment DSP. This great paper and the stamp set areavailable only until March 31st - each one free with a $50 order .... so don't wait a day longer to add them to your collection. Everyday Enchantment has been one of my favorite papers  this year! Order online now.

Vintage Flowers and Frames

I love the new Edgelits Dies! They add an elegance to a card, don't they? Once again I used that beautiful paper that will be available during Sale-a-bration -  Everyday Enchantment. Don't miss it! It's a great, great time to book a workshop and earn extra products.  Sale-A-Bration begins January 24th and has some       wonderful free products you can choose from.                          

I also used the Blossom Bouquet Triple Layer punch for a nice bunchy flower - the vintage frame behind the flower is created by using the Designer Frames Embossing folder.                                                                           

                                                                                         

                                                                                         

                                                                                                

Vintage Valentine Holder

Calypso Coral, Very Vanilla and Pool Party - how fun for a heart filled Valentine. The new Hearts Collection #125599 Framelit Die is absolutely stunning. I stayed up half the night having the very most fun with it! The possibilities are endless. What did we do before the Big Shot?

This scalloped heart pouch is 5" x 5", embossed and filled with Valentines quickly made from the Everyday Enchantment DSP and a few hearts stamped with the P.S. I Love You #125462 stamp set showcased in the brand new  Occasions Mini Catalog. You will have a complete new wish list when you get a peek at it!

Hearts and Doilies

I love, love Valentine's Day! It was my favorite day of the school year. Remember the Valentine boxes decorated with hearts we were taught to cut out by folding the paper in half (no Big Shot back then!) and paper doilies, lots of red, lots of hearts and candy to boot? Hard not to love a day like that.  Then taking your boxes home - am I the only one that would go through my Valentine's over and over again?

Well, they'd be vintage Valentine's now.... that's a few moons ago but I still love making and receiving (hint, hint)  hearts. I've been busy creating so here's the first of many that you'll be seeing on my blog. I'll try hard to mix it up with some other fun cards along the way, but take time to enjoy the romance of February 14th!

You'll find this paper in the Sale-A-Bration catalog that'scoming soon (I so hope I'm not getting into trouble for showing this early!!) It's beautiful and vintage-like and I enjoyed combining it with a doily sponged with Sahara Sand ink, emboss a heart, pop on a few pearls and satin ribbon and I love it!
