Weekly Newsletter November 18th

Have you checked out the new Online Exclusives lately? Stampin’ Up has a new critter, and I think it is adorable. So here is a casing with the new critter.

 

Shaker cards are definitely one of our favorite card types, but when you combine them with the Otterly Adorable Suite Collection—including the Otterly Amazing Stamp Set, Otterly Amazing Dies, Riverside Irregular Pearls (plus Lost Lagoon Soft Cording)—you’ll have a corner on cuteness, and you’ll be crafting for days!

There’s a lovely shaker card in the current annual catalog and we decided to CASE it. The happy result is a charming peek at the rollicking, undersea world of otters! Here’s how to do it:

  • Make the card from Basic Beige Cardstock embossed with the Timber Embossing Folder. Die cut the window using the Countryside Corner Dies.
  • Create the underwater background by painting wavy strokes with a Water Painter and Coastal Cabana, Misty Moonlight, and Pool Party ink. Once dry, stamp the fish using Misty Moonlight ink.
  • To make the shaker filler, remove the adhesive backs from the pearls.
  • Watercolor the image of the otters in Pebbled Path ink and die cut.
  • Die cut leaves, logs, and rocks from Early Espresso, Garden Green, Gray Granite, Mossy Meadow, and Old Olive Cardstock.
  • Stamp the sentiment with Pecan Pie ink on Very Vanilla Cardstock.

There will be a new project on Friday.  I don’t know about a Thursday yet.  I had tremendous sales at the three-day show.  I am running low on some products and must focus on them.   I have two different shows Saturday and Sunday. You will just need to check in on my post.

Time for Merry

We now have Halloween out of the way and those decorations put away.  Now is the time to decorate the halls with merry.  It is also time to make a shopping list, gift list, and card list.    So let us get the Christmas Cards made.  I have the new Decorative Trees stamp set bundle.  With all the different dies the possibilities are endless.

My Designer Series Paper is a retired Christmas Paper. However, there is a Holly Designer Series Paper in the Mini Catalog.  You will find it on page 33 called Snowy Scenes.

A reminder that there will be no Project on Friday as I am setting up for a Craft Show.

  • 20% off all Designer Series Paper.

The savings will show at the end of the order.  Remember this is November 13th – 15th.

I would appreciate if you put your order through me as this helps me order new stamp sets and share new ideas.

You can’t get much more versatile than hearts, flowers, and greenery, and the Hearts of Elegance Bundle features all three. These elements are perfect for creating collage focal points, so that’s where we started with each of our projects. In addition to the bundle, ink, and cardstock, we also used Country Lace Designer Series Paper, Subtles 6″ x 6″ (15.2 x 15.2 cm) Designer Series Paper, and the Gift Bags Combo Pack.

On our first card we used just stamps, ink, and paper and combined the heart image, flower image, and leaf image for our focal point. We added the sentiment on top for a simple and elegant card, perfect for beginners.

For our next card, we stepped it up, using both stamps and dies to create a larger focal point. We cut some hearts out of cardstock using the dies. We stamped flower images on one of the larger hearts. We also stamped and die cut some leaves. Then we layered them all together, adding a sentiment on top.

For our final project, we went all out using the stamps, ink, paper, dies, and a gift bag. We used a Blending Brush to add Petal Pink ink to the gift bag. Next, we cut some hearts from Designer Series Paper and layered them with some stamped and die-cut flowers and leaves. Then we cut smaller hearts from Designer Series Paper, folded them in half, and glued them together at the fold to create a honeycomb heart. We layered all of that together, added the sentiment, and there you have it—our masterpiece.
