New at SU! Something Old, Something New

2 Comments

Are you switching gears in your craft studio with the change of the season? We are certainly doing that today in our New at SU! Blog Hop! You’ll find inspiration for your paper crafting from the change in season WHEREVER you live thanks to this talented group of international demonstrators!

We can feel a bit of fall creeping into the final days of summer in Utah, and my card reflects that transition:

By combining something OLD (the Country Home stamp set) with something NEW (Jar of Flowers stamp set) and adding some pinewood planks, it feels like I’ve just picked the last of the summer sunflowers to enjoy in a farmhouse!

he Wink of Stella pen gives the flower centers a lovely sparkle!

May it be CRAFTING season all year long~ Now hop along to Cynthia’s blog, where you’ll be in for a treat!

It makes a perfect topper for treat bags. How about for the Thanksgiving table?

NEWSFLASH: The NEW and IMPROVED Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine (standard size) will be available for customers to order on September 1st! Demonstrators were able to pre-order it this month and this was the first project I made with this wonderful new die-cutting machine!

Paired with the Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper, the topper layers are really beautiful, but my favorite detail has to be the Acorn Trinket.

Purchase the products to make your own from your demonstrator, or if you don’t have a demonstrator in the U.S. you can shop from the list below and I’m happy to serve you!

NEW Paper Trimmer!

Leave a comment

 

Stampin' Up! Product

One of the essential tools a paper crafter must have is a paper trimmer. Tomorrow (November 1st), the NEW Paper Trimmer by Stampin’ Up! will be available!

As a demo, I was able to get mine early, and was excited to play with it. You are going to be very pleased with the quality, attention to detail, and improvements to the new trimmer.

In my opinion, there are good improvements to the overall design, but the biggest improvements are in the design and function of the cutting and scoring blades. The new blades are easier to hold, glide smoothly, cut cleanly, and don’t pull to one side.

TIP: When cutting, don’t press down too hard or you may create a bend at the edge of the paper. The blades are sharp and only need light pressure to cut really well!

Order your Paper Trimmer today, I know you’ll love it as much as I do!

Current Promotion


PAPER TRIMMER TOP 5

ONE: The body of the trimmer has a squared shape that’s easy to store on its side, light weight, includes a look for hanging, and the extension arm is extra-long to fit larger paper.

TWO: The clear cutting guide is wide and solid so it won’t warp when cutting and it clips closed automatically without having to close with a latch.

THREE: Cutting and scoring blades are larger making them easier to grip and the shape is centered so cutting isn’t skewed to one side.

FOUR: Cutting and scoring blades are easy to remove and can be flipped and used either direction, so if you tend to cut only up or down you can flip and re-use.

FIVE: Cutting blade is super-sharp and longer so it can easily cut 2 – 3 sheets of cardstock!

Crazy for Daisies: Get 3 Free Cards!

Leave a comment

Did you know:

  1. Daisies are found on every continent except Antarctica?
  2. Daisy leaves are edible (they are high in vitamin C and can be added to a salad)?
  3. Daisies represent purity and innocence
  4. They are actually 2 flowers in one: The (usually) white petals count as one flower and the cluster of (usually) tiny yellow disc petals that form the ‘eye’ is technically another.

The beauty of stamping a daisy is that you can make them ANY color and with the addition of the Daisy Lane bundle to the Stampin’ Up! catalog, we now have 2 sizes of Daisy punches to play with…and they look fabulous in layers, as I demonstrated today on my Facebook Lunchtime Crafting LIVE:

Watermarked4(2019-06-17-1504)

This card opens like an overlapping gate and the 3-D flower curls back onto the card, making it feel ALIVE.

SPECIAL OFFER: 3 Free Cards!

I know you’ll love playing with the bundle (stamps + punch = save 10%) so I’m offering a BONUS to my customers: Order the Daisy Lane bundle from my Stampin’ Store (through July 22, 2019) , I’ll send you the supplies* and instructions to make 3 cards!

*Card stock and embellishments included. Ink pads and adhesive NOT included. You may use any colors, but the coordinating ink pads are Daffodil Delight, Highland Heather, Granny Apple Green and Night of Navy if you would like to add them to your order.

Here’s a sneak peek:
