Only 6 more days to go & let the festivities begin!

Hi Friends,
I need to give you an update on me first and foremost because healthwise, I am still not 100% but I am getting better each day. Unfortunately, I thought that this month I would have been able to work with a new stamp set for the stamp of the month and do more giveaways but did not expect to land in the hospital for awhile and then to be bedridden for 2 weeks. I really tried to get something all put together for you but given that there is only a week left in May, I just figured that I would skip it entirely and just resume back up with the stamp of the month for June. Being that the new catalogue goes live on June 1st, I will push the  Over the Rainbow Stamp Set #138770  back to a later date.
 I would rather start working with some of the newer product for June.

So if you can forgive me for being absent and bare with me, we will be back on track where we are supposed to be! Before I go into more news, I just wanted to let you know that there are only 6 more days left to get your hands on any of your favorite product that is retiring. After May 31st, that is it my friends, everything will be gone. A lot of the product has reduced down to a GREAT savings so if you get a moment, definitely click the link below and go see the updated retired product list. There are some really good products listed there at a fraction of the regular retail cost. Think of Christmas a bit early, as in Christmas in July! If you have crafty friends or family members, this would be an amazing opportunity to stock up for some gifts!

So here ya go, below is the updated list for all retiring product, whatever is left anyways. Again, remember that you only have until the 31st to get your hands on these items before they are gone for good. Don't miss your chance to get them while you can!

Here is an updated list of all the retiring product.

Final project using April's SOTM Rose Wonder & a Giveaway!

Hello Friends!

  How are you all doing? Can you believe we have come to the end of another month. April just flew right on by, dontcha think? How is your weekend so far? Ours is a little cool and rainy. I am so looking forward to summer! I live in a shore resort town, so things have started to pick up here. Seasonal businesses are now starting to open and people are coming down getting their homes ready for the summer. I have even smelled some delicious food aromas coming from the restaurant behind me on the bay! So Summer hurry up!!  :)

Okay so moving on,  today I am bringing you the final project using this month's stamp of the month, Rose Wonder and the Rose Garden thinlits. Rose wonder comes from the Occasions catalogue and can be found on my website HERE.  This stamp set is beautiful and I have been having so much fun creating with it! It also has matching thinlit dies too, and for today's project, I used several of the thinlits. You may find the thinlits HERE or if you're like me and like to have stamps with their matching dies, you can also do the bundles. You can find the Rose Wonder and the Rose Garden thinlits Dies Bundle ID#140804 HERE . So here is what I made for you. Cute little gift bags for any occasion!

 I have a few things coming up in which I needed a cute gift bag, Mother's day and a birthday. I decided to pull out Mint Macaron #138337, Whisper White #100730 and The In Color Designer Series Paper #138432 paper & cardstock and my basic black & mint macaron ink pads. So to make the gift bags, I used my Gift Bag punch board #135862. I created the bag by starting off with a piece of 5 1/2" by 11" cardstock and used my medium line. I just LOVE this punch board! I have made many gift bags of various sizes with this board and it has come in handy so many times for giving out little gifts, gift cards and candies. So as you can see, I created two gift bags. One was created using whisper white cardstock as the base and then using some mint macaron cardstock and a piece of "Love Blossoms Designer series paper #140548" for the panels. And just so you know, the Love Blossoms DSP and cardstock are retiring! If you have been wanting this, you should get it while it is still available. This gift bag is going to be for my mother's gift for Mother's day. The second gift bag was used with some mint macaron cardstock as the base and a piece of striped mint macaron & whisper white DSP and will be used to give a gift card for an upcoming birthday. 

  

 

 To embellish each gift bag, I stamped the little flower from the Rose Wonder Stamp set #140697 in mint macaron ink onto some mint macaron cardstock and DSP. I then took the coordinating die from the Rose Garden Thinlits #140619 and cut it out of whisper white. I stamped the same image on top of the die cut flower to give it a little bit of the mint color. Then I stamped the frame in basic black onto whisper white and took the coordinating die and cut it out. For my mother's gift bag, I stamped the sentiment, "What a beautiful blessing you are to me" in mint macaron ink and for the birthday gift bag, I stamped the "Happy Birthday" sentiment, also in mint macaron ink. Lastly, I die cut some of the leaf sprigs out of mint macaron cardstock. I took the leaf sprigs and adhered them to the bags first and then added the framed sentiment. Then I popped up the flower and added that to finish off the focal point for my embellished bags. Both sentiments are from the Rose Wonder stamp set and all coordinating dies are from the Rose Garden thinlits dies. To finish off the bags, I punched the holes at the top of the bags,  added some Very Vanilla Satin Ribbon for the handles and added some tissue paper inside.  I really hope you like them!

Tomorrow is also the last day for you to receive your FREE pack of Rhinestone Basic Jewels ID#119246 ($5 value) with your order of the Rose Wonder Stamp Set ID#140697. It is also the last day for you to order the Rose Wonder Bundle (Stamps + Dies) ID#140804 and have a chance at winning a $15 credit toward your next purchase. If you order just the stamp set, you will be entered into the drawing once for the $15 credit and if you order the stamp/die bundle, you will be entered twice! Please be sure to get your orders in by May 1st, no later than 11:59PM Eastern Standard Time for this month's perks.  If you want to purchase May's stamp of the month early, you can view it here.

Giveaway

I will be giving away a gift bag kit to one person! You will receive the gift bag, the layers, and the frame so that you can create your own custom gift bag.  All you need to do is leave a comment on this post and let me know if you prefer the gift bag on the left in whisper white or the gift bag on the right in Mint Macaron and your email.

Project #3 Using SOTM Rose Wonder PLUS a chance to win!

Hello Friends!

  How are you all doing? Did you see all the amazing product that is being retired??! And they are going really fast too. I logged in tonight to look for a stamp set that I wanted to get for a friend and it was gone. But it was there last night. So if you see anything on the list that you may want to get, do not wait! It will be gone!! To see the Retiring list of product, simply click here. Retiring product will only be available until May 31st or while supplies last!!

Okay today I am bringing you the third project using this month's stamp of the month, Rose Wonder ID#140697. Rose wonder comes from the Occasions catalogue and can be found on my website HERE.  This stamp set is beautiful and I have been having so much fun creating with it! It also has matching thinlit dies too, but I only used one of the thinlits for today's project. You may find the thinlits HERE or if you're like me and like to have stamps with their matching dies, you can also do the bundles. You can find the Rose Wonder and the Rose Garden thinlits Dies Bundle ID#140804 HERE . So here is what I made for you. A set of six cards measuring 4 1/4 by 4 1/4. 

 

 I wanted to go for the monochromatic look so I kept that in mind when creating these cards. I decided to pull out Blackberry Bliss #133642, Delightful Dijon #138327 and Pool Party #126982 cardstock and inks. I started off with a 4 1/4 by 9 inch piece of cardstock and then scored it at 4 1/4 to make really cute 4 1/4 by 4 1/4 sized cards. So to make the cards, I decided to also cut down some Whisper White cardstock #100730 to 3 1/4 by 4 1/4 as I wanted the layer to be the same length of the card base and down in the center. I then took this layer and created my own background paper with the cute little single flower from the Rose Wonder Stamp set #140697 . I inked up the flower in the same ink color as the card base. I also did second generation stamping for this. Basically what that means is that you ink up your stamp and stamp it down, and then immediately stamp it down again to get the lighter color from that second take. I really liked the look that it gave against the crisp white background. Here is a closer look at the second generation stamping. 

 

Also in the Rose Wonder stamp set, comes a cute label stamp which is what you see that I have used to pair up with my sentiments. I did use the thinlit label die to cut out matching color labels to adhere my stamped labels on and I did this by using a couple Dimensionals ID#104430. I ended up using three of the sentiments from this set, "Thank You", "With Sympathy" and "Happy Birthday", each stamped in the same coordinating ink as their card base. So I ended up with two of each card. Here is a look at the inside of the "With Sympathy" card. This sentiment is also from the Rose Wonder stamp set. 

Well that is it for today. I hope you can see just how gorgeous this set is and all the many ways you can use it. Here are a few more photos. 

For those of you who order this month's Rose Wonder Stamp Set ID#140697 by May 1st, you will be entered to win a $10 credit toward your next purchase. And for those who order the Rose Wonder Bundle (Stamps + Dies) ID#140804, you will receive a FREE pack of Rhinestone Basic Jewels ID#119246 ($5 value) and in addition, will be entered twice to win a $10 credit toward your next purchase.

RECAP
