Spring Corners Sneak Peek!

 How about a little sneak peek of an upcoming stamp/die bundle?  

Spring Corners will be available through the OnLine Exclusives starting in January.  

The stamp set has multiple phrases that wrap around the corners of your cards.  There are also some images (balloons, flowers, heart) that go along with the greetings.

And then there are the dies.

For this card I just used one die, the daisies.  It fits neatly in the corner of my card and really adds some splash!  I first used the die to cut the top layer of my card.  The I cut two more - one in Granny Apple Green and another in Daffodil Delight (both with Adhesive Sheets on the back).  Then I pulled the colored pieces and added them to the white layer, fitting them in to the cut-outs, like a mosaic.  

There are several other dies in the set - 3 corner pieces as well as dies to cut some of the images in the stamp set.  It's really versatile and can be used for lots of occasions!

Watch for Spring Corners, coming soon...

A Book Tree

The new January - April 2025 Mini Catalog will be live before we know it, and I've just received my pre-order of fun stamps, dies, gorgeous paper and accessories.  But when I saw a card posted by Jo Weeden Melbourne using one of the new stamps I got, For the Books, I knew I just had to recreate it for my book club members:

 How's that for using a stamp set in a different way?  Who would have thought that a stack of books could make a cute Christmas tree?

I stamped the books, masking the ones on the bottom and re-stamping them side by side.  The star at the top is from Decorative Trees (on the retiring list - get it before it's gone!).  Then I colored them all with Blends.

The greeting is from Reindeer Fun (another set soon to be retired) using Shy Shamrock ink.

And that shiny paper?  There is a reason I keep stuff in my stash long after it's no longer available - and now you are seeing why; this was from a pack of Red and Green Foil sheets, and I can't even tell you when it was in a catalog, it's been that long!  But it was the perfect "foil" (no pun intended) for a layer on my card.

The January - April 2025 Mini Catalog will be ready for your orders soon.  Need a catalog?  Just let me know.  I'd love to get one into your hands!
