Notes & Totes

My preorder arrived yesterday and if you know me you know what I opened first.  I just love me some beachy stuff!


 OMG!  What's not to love about a Beans tote bag hanging on a fence at the beach?  With all the accessories!

Notes & Totes is a new stamp and die combo that will be available in the upcoming 2025-26 Annual Catalog.  The stamps are going to be a nice addition but the dies are to "die" for!  So much fun!


I started by stamping the sun and then using Blending Brushes to add some "sky" and "sea".  The "sand" is torn Crumb Cake cardstock, stamped with the "sand" from the stamp set.  

The fence is a die that cuts and embosses the paper to look like wood, although I used a piece of the Country Woods DSP.

And then the bag!  Basic Beige with Blueberry Bushel trim.  A Melon Mambo "purse scarf", sunglasses and a water bottle--everything you need for a day at the beach!  

And look!  You can also make a 3D bag:


Cutting two of the purse pieces and adhering them together makes an adorable treat holder, large enough for a Ghirardelli chocolate!  


I am SO in love!  



Notes and Totes will be available May 5th.  Be sure to add it to your Wish List!
