Something Old with a Twist

Definition

Well, March is here!  We still have snow, but no snowstorm this last weekend.  So it made for a busy weekend.  I was able to get out with my friend Maryann and we hit the craft show.  She loves to shop!  However, I did get some shopping done too.  I found my gal who makes and sells Goat’s Milk soap.  So I stocked up on it.  I know it is only March, but I started my Christmas shopping.   Anyway, someone special was in town this weekend because it was Iowa Public Television weekend.  P. Buckley Moss was here and I was invited to a dinner party for her.  There were about 15 of us.  So very intimate. Then Sunday I went over to IPBS and bought her latest print. She signed it of course.

 

 

At the dinner party.

At the signing.   I have several of her works in my home.

 

Because of all this going on I got very little work done.  So I decided to bring out one of the older stamps in the Annual Catalog.  It is Waterfront.  I just love this stamp set because it is so versatile.  I did a birthday card, but I have done sympathy and thinking of you cards with this set.  To me, it is a very easy stamp set to work with it. Yes, I know it has many facets to the set, but it really is just about stamping. I made this a little different because I stamped and then cut the center out with the Stitched Shapes circle framelits.  If you have the set give it a try and if don’t have it order it today by clicking here. https://www.stampinup.com/ecweb/default.aspx

I received some notices this weekend that the new coordinating framelits for some Sale-a-bration items are selling out in the European market.  I would hate for you to miss getting the coordinating dies for Lasting Lily, So Hoppity, and Hello Cupcake.  They will stay in my go-to group even after Sale-a-bration.  Here is the link to my online shop https://www.stampinup.com/ecweb/default.aspx  Also,  the March Paper Pumpkin will have 2 stamp sets. The theme is for birthdays.

Special Note: The Organdy Ribbon Combo Pak is back in stock.  It is one of the FREE ones to choose in Sale-a-bration.  #149622.  It would be a good choice with Fable Friends.

Hey It Is Friday, Do You Know What That Means?

Well, we made it to Friday and I am working on some changes and some new ideas.  Soon you will be hearing and seeing some of those changes in March.  Yes, it is March and I am hoping Spring is around the corner.  So when I think Spring, I remember the beautiful Lilies my mother would place on the dining room table.  Therefore, I want to present Lasting Lily, but with a twist.  As of March 1st, you can order the framelit that goes with it.  There are actually two more framelits to go with the Sale-bration items….. So Hoppity and Sweet Cupcake.  Today I want to showcase Lastly Lily cut out as a card fold.  This is an older video, but I received a request for a Gate Fold card.  So why reinvent the wheel.

This is a simple card to make as an A2.  You will cut your cardstock to 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″.  Then score at 2 1/8″  which is the first mark after 2″.  The panels are 1 7/8″ x 5 1/4″.  The piece with the flower is 2 1/2″ x 4 3/4″  and white cardstock is 2 1/4″ x 5″.

 

Lasting Lily Photopolymer Stamp SetLily Framelits Dies

Now for the Lasting Lily, it is a beautiful flower and your choices of color are endless.  I will be providing some tips on how to stamp with this Distinctive stamp set on Wednesday’s Technique video.  In the meantime think of all the other stamps, you can use for this card fold.  Place your order today for the new framelits and you will be ready to go with the new ideas coming in March,  Just click here for my Online Store https://www.stampinup.com/ecweb/products/10102/free-with-$100-spend  and for the framelit https://www.stampinup.com/ecweb/products/11029/sale-a-bration-coordination

Warm Thoughts

 

I thought with the persistent weather, we all could use some warm thoughts of warm weather.  So the stamp set that comes to mind is Beach Happy.  I am not a person that loves to lounge on the beach like my son, but I do like the feel of warm sand on my toes.  So pull up a beach chair and umbrella and dream of warmer days ahead.  Just imagine the sun rays beaming down on you with a cool drink.  You deserve it!

This card I created will work for thinking of you, newly retired, a promotion, new graduate, or just that person who is always doing something for someone.  It doesn’t matter if it is for family or friends.  They will smile upon opening this envelope. You will find it a simple card to make because all you are doing is stamping and coloring. I found it out you can make several of this design quickly using your Stamparatus.
