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!

  • A Fun Fold card with the Changing Leaves hybrid embossing folder; video too!


    Here's the last card in the group of three I shared in last week's live video. I featured the Changing Leaves bundle from the Online Extras. 

    My colors include Basic Beige and Mossy Meadow with a tiny bit of white and Pretty Peacock added. That beautiful circle die-cut is the largest in the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here. 

    The Changing Leaves bundle includes the stamp set, dies and hybrid embossing folder.  You might wonder what a 'hybrid' embossing folder is? It's a folder that has a coordinating die that works 'inside' the folder.  It cuts and embosses at the same time.  Genius!   Confused on how this works? Watch the video here to see. 

    I cut out all three leaves from the large leaf die at once and each card featured a different leaf. I thought I was smart to design my swap cards this way and save time too. 

    Two cards feature a diagonal design but they're all quite different. Each one includes Mossy Meadow & Basic Beige cardstock though.

    Watch the video below to see how the Changing Leaves bundle with the Hybrid embossing folder works. You'll also see multiple techniques too!

  • Green & Gold fun fold card with Changing Leaves bundle; & a free project sheet too!


    Today I'm sharing the second card I made during last week's Live video. My projects focused on new Online Exclusive products.  There's lots of beautiful texture on this monochromatic card.

    This card features multiple new Online Exclusive products released last week.

    Did you know that Stampin' Up! releases a bunch of new online extras multiple times a year?  These items are not in any printed publication and are seen only online. Most people don't realize that they can be ordered online or at local events.

    I'll be featuring this pretty Green & Gold specialty designer paper for one of my upcoming card kits:

    Here's the inside view of this card.  I call it a center flap fold. It allows you to use two different pieces of coordinating designer paper.

  • Changing Leaves Hybrid embossing folder technique; with free project sheet & video tutorial


    I joined quite a few swaps featuring our newest group of Online Exclusives and this is one of the cards I made:

    It features the Changing Leaves bundle seen here.  It includes a stamp & die bundle AND a coordinating hybrid embossing folder as well. 

    I used two different embossing techniques on this card. If you look closely at the die-cut leaf you'll see there's ink in the recessed part of the leaf.  That was done by adding ink to the embossing folder before I cut & embossed the leaves.  Please watch the video here to see how it's done. 

    My colors include the new Basic Beige and Mossy Meadow with White. I also ran a piece of Basic Beige CS through the clean folder and added ink with a blending brush afterwards. 

    In the two cards below you'll see that the Beige card stock looks different.  The left card was done by blending Mossy Meadow ink very lightly over the textured CS. The right card was done by adding ink to the embossing folder before I textured it. Two totally different results! Again; watch the video below to see how it's done. 

    For the greetings I used another new Online Exclusive stamp set called Everyday Greetings. It's a fabulous greeting set. See it here. 

    The oval die-cut is from a new set of dies called Greetings of the Season dies seen here. They're paired with a stamp set but are great on their own too. 

    Did you know that Online Exclusives simply mean that they're seen online and not in any printed publication? Anyone can order them! See them all here; there are tons of them!
