We are almost back to normal around our little NC town, roads opening up and grocery stores getting stock in. We still have to boil our water but so many still don’t have power so we are grateful that we do.

Remember I used the Book Treat Boxes a few weeks ago? I was waiting for the Sophisticated Sled bundle to come back so I could post this one! It was so relaxing to put together this little shadowbox winter scene!
Here is my video – it’s a little longer this week because it’s a more involved project but so worth making one:

I highly recommend these little boxes – so much fun!
They come in a pack of 10 boxes for $10 #164048

OCTOBER SPECIALS

Stampin’ Up Kits are on sale for 30% during October! See them all here

During October, the SU starter kit has an EXTRA $30 added to it! So you can choose $155 in products of your choice, free shipping and still pay only $99. October is the beginning of a quarter and there is no minimum sales required for your first quarter. So you have Oct – March to place $300 (you don’t have to do it all at once) to stay active. If you decide not to order after that, they will just drop you. It’s pretty easy! You can do it just for the discount. I’ll show you how to place your own orders and as a demo, you can enjoy a discount and also preorder new products early. You can sign up here or email me for more info to join my team.

I love an ‘old school’ fun fold but with new papers!
This fold takes a little bit more cardstock but so versatile.
I used 3 new designer papers and accessories in 3 different orientations:

When SU acquired Close to My Heart, a wonderful new world of products and kits arrived!
Even if you don’t scrapbook the traditional way, you may want to check out the 2-Toned 12×12 Cardstock or some of the Kits (see a video here). I’ll order the cardstock, which is a bit lighter in weight and has a white core (remember Cor’dinations? Maybe it is like that)
This new brochure will be available for ordering on September 4th also!

One of the new bundles released this month is called Frosted Forest.
I do love trees and even though I have a few tree sets already, I grabbed this one because of the masks that coordinate with it:

Frosted Forest Bundle with stamps/dies and set of 6 masks
#164137 $64.75 or just the masks for $15

This was an experiment on watercolor paper using one of the masks to create a watercolor background. (see my video for how I did that) . There is dimension that doesn’t really show up but it’s cool in person.
I used the Radiating Stitches die around the edges only to find out as I’m typing this up that they are retired now.
I’m sure you will find something close to work well also!

Snow capped pine tree – my favorite!


Just 4 days for Bonus Days and $5 coupons for every $50 order!
Bonus days end July 31st!

Hi! This week I got to play with the Frames & Flowers designer paper. It is unique in that there are 3 sheets of die cut pieces you can punch out! Love not having to fussy cut:)
It also has 3 sheets of regular designer paper that are double sided.
Take a look at my video to see it up close and 7 projects using it!

Hi all!
I’ve got an easy layout this week!
Not necessarily a new technique to use 1/4″ strips to add a little extra somethin’ without heavy layers.

VIEW/PRINT RECIPE PDF WITH MEASUREMENTS HERE
This layout uses a thick white card base and strips plus adding the designer paper pieces so the card is lightweight!
I used Playing in the Rain bundle along with the Bright & Beautiful 6×6 paper
For this landscape version, I used the Fresh As a Daisy paper along with Sending Smiles.

Sketched Plaid Cling (rubber) stamp set $20 #161424
Mad about plaid? Not just for flannel shirts or country tablecloths. It’s great for card making, too!
I do like this hand-drawn, big plaid background stamp.
It’s easy to just stamp it and keep it simple. OR you can add some extra colors to create a whole different look!
Watch my video below to see these 4 backgrounds using the Sketched Plaid background stamp!

GORGEOUS GARDEN DIES #161283 $42 Set of 2
I bought these new dies and finally getting some time to play with them!
I made 3 different cards and I love the versatility of these dies.
On the inside of the Just a Note card you can barely see the design I stamped using the die and ink pad but I like the subtleness of the pattern. And you might not guess what designer paper I used for the colorful pattern!
.How did I miss that the Limited Edition stamp set retired? aargh! Love that stamp set with the Paper Hug sentiment…
You can substitute anything that fits in your banner.
Here is my video using the dies with a few tips…
