Is there anything that you’ve had your eye on lately? Now’s the time to grab it! If you like having new things on a regular basis, consider the Paper Pumpkin kits – the six month and twelve month prepaid subscriptions always help you save on the monthly cost of the kit – but during free shipping, you’ll save even more! See the breakdown below. You pay shipping costs on these kits only when you purchase a prepaid subscription (not for the month by month option).
If you have questions, want to pay by etransfer or want to get in on the group order, contact me! Remember – group orders must be to me by 7pm Eastern so that I have time to enter everything and confirm payment options. Thanks!
Waves of the Ocean is a Limited Time offering from Stampin’ Up! – available while supplies last or until 2 May 2022. It features the Waves of Inspiration Stamp Set and coordinating Waves Dies (also available together in a discounted bundle). These items are a sneak peek from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalogue. Other items available in this collection during the Promotion Period are the Waves of the Ocean Designer Series Paper featured on the side panels of this bridge card. They are actual images from acrylic pours that one of the Stampin’ Up! Concept Artists created – and they’re gorgeous. I die cut the wave images from the Blue Foils that were available in this collection and I love the effect. Unfortunately, the Foil sheets are sold out and no longer available. Also no longer available – the Rhinestone Wave Basic Jewels. So if you like the look of this Designer Series Paper – don’t hesitate, because you may miss out!
What I like about this Bridge Card design is that it fits into a regular Medium Stampin’ Up! envelope (the “usual” card sized envelope) but it’s a little fancier than your average card! We made this card in Stampers Club last month, and one tip when you’re making this card in advance – if you only stick down one side of the bridge strip, you can still easily write or decorate the middle panel, then stick the other side down when you’re ready to send it.
Our Stampers Club continues to meet virtually at this point in time, and the bonus to this is that out of towners can easily join in on the fun! The other bonus is that if any club member has to miss our usual get together, the recordings are available in our member site so can be watched later. We will likely meet in person again in the future, but may try to figure out a way to do a hybrid version so that there’s an option for those who can’t travel easily to Burlington! If you’d like to join Stampers Club, or have any questions, please contact me. You can find more information on club on the YamStamps Events Page as well. New members can start during any month –though if you want to join us starting in April, you’ll need to contact me ASAP so that I can prepare your class package in time!
Lots of things to celebrate today – like the Lunar New Year/Year of the Tiger (I shared a Tiger card on the YamStamps Facebook Page), plus the release of a special collection from Stampin’ Up – the All Together Collection!
The All Together Collection is available for purchase today until 2 May 2022. It features a new set of Stampin’ Blends Markers – the Naturals Tones. You can purchase them in sets of two[Light, Medium Light, Medium, Medium Deep and Deep] , or get the entire set of Naturals Blends markers, which cover a range of shades that can be used for skin tones. These alcohol based markers will be available in the next Annual Catalogue as well – so this is like a Sneak Peek at new product. The other products in this collection will NOT appear in the next catalogue – so they’re only available during this promotion period.
I love this collection – it’s going to be great for a bit of colouring therapy for me, plus it will make for some great cards and scrapbook pages! Don’t forget that if you place an order for $60 product (before shipping/taxes), you’ll also get Sale-a-Bration products of your choice for free until the end of February! Shortcut to shopping is YamStamps.com/shop.
I used the dies to cut the Cotton Paper (which is almost like a tissue paper feel) and a scrap of Gold Foil. I love the gold metallic accent on the Specialty Designer Series Paper, so this coordinated well with the Gold Foil backing tag. I added some of the Garden Gems to the tag as well for an easy, elegant card. The Cotton Paper is really pliable, so I just folded the ends behind the DSP and held them in place with tape for an quick addition to the card.
If you’re on my mailing list, you’ll know that we are wrapping up the Twelve Weeks of Christmas mailings this week (um….what?!). I think I may post a bonus project next week, though. In the meantime, I need to try and get MY holiday cards mailed out, or at least get my tree decorated, right? Perhaps I will just send a number of hello there cards instead. How many cards are you sending (okay, have you “sent”, because you’re probably ahead of me) this year?
