Happy Birthday to You; a free stamp set!


Have you seen this pretty stamp set yet?  The cake on a pedestal image is quite pretty and easy to color too. 

And guess what?!  They are releasing a set of die-cuts for this set next month!  It includes 7 dies including one for the entire cake, just the flowers, a detailed pedestal and two sets of leaves.  It will be for purchase; it's not part of Sale-a-Bration.  There are 6 new items they'll release on February 4th that coordinate with items in the new Mini catalog and Sale-a-Bration catalog.  I'll share more on that soon.  

This pretty card has a bit of the Parisian Blossoms Designer Series Paper on the edge; it brings together the soft colors of Pool Party, Petal Pink and White.  It's a bonus card for those who take my New Catalog stamp a stack class on January 25th. 

That detailed scalloped rectangle is from my favorite new set of dies; Stitched So Sweetly.  It's one of the best things in the new Mini Catalog!  

I colored the cake with Blends markers in Petal Pink, Pool Party and Mint Macaron.  The greeting is stamped in Smoky Slate.  Note the addition of the Champagne Rhinestones and Petal Pink/Champagne ribbon! 

The Parisian Blossom DSP, Champagne Rhinestones and Petal Pink/Champagne ribbon are all included in this month's Cards kit to go.  Click here to get the details on it.  Or message me at lagreff60@gmail.com

Here's a photo of all you get in the kit; $20 in product plus the 10 pre-cut cards!  All for $28 before shipping. You do need to RSVP by tomorrow, Thursday January 16th to receive it though!

You can see these products in my online store by clicking on the photos below.  If you are reading this in an email you won't see the photos.  You'll need to click on the title of this blog post to get to my actual blog.  Then you'll see everything!

  • Masked Blending Technique; join me Live tonight!


    Happy New Year!!!

    ~~~

    Tonight I'm sharing the Masked Blending technique on FB Live.  It's at 7:30 pm here on FB.  It will also be shared on my YouTube channel afterwards.  

    Each month (usually on the last Monday) I host a 'Stamp with Me' Live on my FB page.  I post the project ahead of time so those who want to can prepare and create along with me.  

    Tonight we're playing with masking & blending brushes to create cards like these:  

    I chose to use long post-it notes to 'mask' off the area I want to add color to.  I used Coastal Cabana ink and our Blending Brushes.  You can get an incredibly smooth look with these brushes.  I'll share my favorite tips on using them in the video.  

    The stamp sets are all new in either the upcoming Spring or Sale-a-Bration catalogs. These catalogs go live on January 5th. 

    The card below is made with the Beautifully Happy stamp set.  It's a 2-step set with 17 stamps in it.  It's free with a $100 order from January 5 – February 28th. 

    My colors include Coastal Cabana, Gorgeous Grape & Fresh Freesia. 


    I did stamp the large flower an extra time and fussy cut it so I could pop it up for added dimension.  

    Join me on Facebook here tonight at 7:30 pm CT or watch it later on my YouTube Channel here.

  • One more Petal Park and Kind & Sincere sneak peek card


    There are still lots of bargains on the Clearance Rack and Last Chance list.  Click on the pictures below to see them all.  Remember they're while supplies last!  Be sure to use this host code when you order:   QFTB9AST



    Yesterday I shared a card seen here made with these two new products and today I'm sharing another one.  I found it easy to create with the Petal Park bundle and the Kind & Sincere stamp set.  They're coming out in the upcoming 2023 Spring Catalog by Stampin' Up!. I love them both! 

     

     

    Details:

    • I stamped the 'Thanks' greeting on the White panel before I textured it with the new Cane Weave 3D embossing folder.  
    • The flowers are stamped in Petal Pink and Night of Navy.  The leaves are fussy cut. 
    • The 'for everything' greeting is stamped and die-cut with the new Something Fancy dies
    • The Soft Sea Foam green card base is 4 1/4" X 11" and scored at 2 3/4" & 5 1/2"
    • The white panel is 4 1/4" X 2 3/4"; the Navy is 4 1/2" X 3". 
    • The Petal Pink layer is 2 1/2" X 4".  I used the outline leaf image to stamp a background using Petal Pink ink. 

    I think I'll get a lot of use of the Kind & Sincere stamp set.  I love that you can create your own greetings by putting together the large cursive words with the smaller printed words.  So versatile!

    Here are the 22 swaps I made.  The two main colors are soft & fresh yet the addition of Navy brings it all together & makes it pop. I feel like Navy is slightly softer than Black, which is another of my favorite ways to add a depth of color.  

    Thanks for reading up to this point; I hope you're excited about the upcoming Spring catalog.  It's filled with all kinds of fresh, new products!  

    **If you don't have a local demonstrator I'm happy to send you the new 2023 Spring & Sale-a-Bration catalogs for $5.  If you've ordered from me in the past year; I'll send them to you free.

  • Petal Park Sneak Peak from the Spring Catalog


    This week I've been sharing some of the cards I made for online swaps I joined.  I hope you're enjoying the sneak peaks! 

    Today I'm sharing a card made with a new stamp & punch bundle called Petal Park.  It includes a new flower trio punch from the Spring catalog. 

    I chose to use the new Regency Park 6 X 6" designer paper; that's where I got the color combination of Balmy Blue, Night of Navy and Mango Melody.  I love them together!  

    Measurements:

    • The card base is 7 1/2" X 5 1/2".  (I cut off 1" from a traditional 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base)
    • The designer paper is 1" X 5 1/4" on the inside right edge.  
    • white panel is 2 3/4" X 3 3/4"
    • Navy is 3" X 4" and the Mango strip is 1" X 4".  
    • The slanted die-cut greeting is from the Something Fancy dies

    In the stamp set there are two sets of flowers – solid and outline.  Plus two sets of leave images as well; outline and solid.  I used both of the flower images, stamping them in Mango Melody & Balmy Blue.  Then just the outline leaves for a lighter background.  I did add some of the small dots in Mango all over the flowers & leaves.  

    I curled the petals after punching so they had a bit more dimension to them.  I added pearls to the centers.  

    The greetings are from another new stamp set called Kind & Sincere.  It has both large and small greetings so you can mix & match your words.  I love this one!  


    Stay tuned for another sneak peak tomorrow!
