New Catalogue & Products
Posted by: | CommentsIt’s here and fabulous!!! The Occasions Mini Catalogue is filled with new items to help you celebrate any upcoming occasions in your life like Valentine’s Day, Easter, Spring, birthdays, weddings and babies!
If you don’t have a catalogue in your hands just yet, you can click on the photo above or use the catalogue link on the right side of my website.
Some of my first favorites in the catalogue are the new line of Big Shot accessories, including Framelits Dies, Edgelits Dies, small sized Embossing Folders and the new Large Sizzlit Die-Paper Doily. You’ll find all these products on pages 6 & 7.
The Framelits and Edgelits Dies come in handy sturdy plastic envelopes that fit into our Big Shot storage units. I love the concept but found the many small pieces a pain when they are in the envelopes together. So I came up with a solution:
I cut a magnetic sheet the size of the dies and to fit into the envelopes. Now the metal dies stay in place in and out of the envelopes – I’ll always be able to find the pieces I want without fishing through all pieces.
TTFN!

Vintage Christmas Stocking Card
Posted by: | CommentsAnother project for my annual Christmas Card class coming up in 2 weeks:
Today’s feature is a card made from the large stocking die. I was able to make it a traditional top-hinged card by folding cardstock in half and running it through the Big Shot without cutting the top off. I also made sure I sized it to fit into our medium square envelopes.
Supplies used:
Stamps – Bells & Boughs
Paper & Ink – Riding Hood Red, Sahara Sand, Very Vanilla, Lucky Limeade, More Mustard and Early Espresso inks
Accessories - Big Shot, Holiday Stocking die, Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder, Vanilla satin ribbon, velvet stitched ribbon, linen thread, mini jingle bells, Decorative Label punch, dimensionals
TTFN!
