Sale-a-Bration starts today!!! Paper Blooms Descending Layers technique


From today through February 28th you can earn free product with your Stampin' Up! orders!  For every $50 or $00 you spend you can choose a free item.  Check it out here.

The new Mini Cut & Emboss machine is now available!  And when you purchase it you can choose a free SAB item too!

It's small, light weight and fits on your work surface so nicely!  It also fits many of our dies and you can see which ones by the special icon in the catalogs. 

This cute machine has a compact footprint for easy storage and travel. The 3-1/2" (8.9 cm) platform works with many of Stampin' Up!'s smaller dies and embossing folders. Includes 1 Mini Base Plate, 2 Mini Cutting Plates, 1 Mini Embossing Plate, and 1 Mini 3D Embossing Plate

Are you enjoying these sneak peaks from the new 2021 Stampin' Up! Spring & Sale-a-Bration catalogs?  It's always fun to play with brand new products.  Today I'm playing with new 2021 Sale-a-Bration (or SAB) items.  

The Paper Blooms Designer Series Paper is full of flowers and fun color combos!  I decided to use my Stitched Rectangle dies to create this layered effect.  If you want to watch a video on how to do this click here. 

I used the third smallest and the third largest die in the Stitched Rectangles set.  It looks like I wasted a ton of paper but the entire card is made with one piece of DSP measuring 5 1/4" X 4".  It's so cool!  

Navy layers are:

  • Main card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  • Smallest rectangle is 3 3/8" X 2", middle is 4 1/2" X 3 1/8" 

You might wonder what I used for the greeting.  The White piece is a new die from the Potted Succulent dies seen here. The Rococo Rose layers are punched pieces; 2 of them.  I used a 1" X 3 3/4" strip and the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch for the ends.  The center piece is the Story Label punch.  The pearls on the label are the NEW Pastel Pearls on page 19 of the new Spring Catalog seen here. 

Thanks for stopping in today; stay tuned for more projects tomorrow!

    What it does not include are stamped images, gems or adhesive.  To finish the calendar you will need a variety of stamps, inks, gems and adhesives. 

    You have two options here; order the pre-cut kit here or order the PDF tutorial here. 

    The kits will be mailed out at the end of November.  The tutorial is emailed to you immediately and includes both 2021 and 2022 calendars!!

  • All Around Wreath for Christmas


    Have you noticed the All Around Wreath bundle in the annual catalog? Click here; it's quite the gem!  So many occasions are covered in the greetings and die-cuts.  

    Marilyn made this pretty Christmas themed wreath for our Team Christmas card swap. 

    She chose to use two shades of green here; Mossy Meadow with Pear Pizzazz along with a few touches of Gold.  The pears are heat embossed in Gold powder as well as the shimmery thread.  

    Other details:

    • The greeting is die-cut with the Hippo & Friends dies seen here
    • The Vanilla layer is textured with the Pinewood Planks embossing folder
    • She used the same wreath die-cut but in two colors, separating them slightly on the card.

  • Retro style circles layout; super easy! Catch the Live video tonight!


    Tonight at 7:30 pm Central Time I'm sharing how to make these retro style circle cards on Facebook Live.  Click here to join me.   You can also see this video below!

    Basically you need three sizes of circle dies or punches for the start of this layout.  Cut them in half and layer together with the edges meeting on one side. Adhere and add a long greeting between the two. 

    Watch how on my FB Live replay!

    Measurements:

    • 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base
    • 3 1/2" X 4 3/4" Whisper White; the greeting strip is about 5" long and either 1/2" or 3/4" wide depending on your greeting image.
    • 1" X 5 1/2" horizontal strip
    • Circles from the Stitched Shapes dies are the largest three circles. 

    You'll want ink, stamps and embellishments that coordinate with your Designer Paper.  Remember you could use card stock instead of DSP.
