For December's class my customers wanted to not do Christmas cards. I think stampers, by the time the middle of December arrives, are a little Christmas'd out. Personally I was looking forward to playing with some of the new things I got in my preorder for the new Stampin' Up!® Mini catalog that debuts January 3, 2020.
One of the sets is from the Annual catalog, "Young At Heart". I love this set! I paired it with a
sentiment from one of the new sets in the Mini catalog, "Thanks for the Laughs" which says "No one is as entertained by us as us," It reminds me a couple of friends and I and also my sister cousins. It's a great set for friends and family. I'm sure a lot of people can identify with this sentiment! Haha! Below is the card we made. It uses some DSP from also from the new catalog. The DSP is from the Painted Poppies Suite.
All of the supplies and instructions for the three cards in today's post are available on my Facebook Group page in the FILES section. My FB group page is "Cottage Lane Stamper & Friends".
The next card we made is also from the new catalog. If you know me I love all things beachy and tropical so it was at the top of my wish list. The suite is called Tropical Oasis. The stamp set we used is Timeless Tropical. This set has some wonderful stamps and dies. I love the Hibiscus flowers! If you love pineapples there is a gorgeous pineapple die in this set!
We used the emboss resist technique on this card. I saw a surf board on Pinterest which was my inspiration for this card. The ribbon that we used is also in the new catalog, called Crinkle Seam Binding Ribbon. What is so amazing about this ribbon is that you can color it to whatever color you need with your Stampin' Blends or run it across your ink pad!!! Great when you don't have the ribbon on hand that you need for a card! The instructions and supplies for this card are also available in PDF form on my FB page.
The last card we made is from a wonderful new suite called Painted Poppies. This suite has 2 stamp sets, one with images and one with sentiments AND two dies sets! I can't share the images from the catalogs yet or I would post them. I can tell you the suite is worth the money. It has some beautiful DSP and an element kit that has some beautiful embossed velum, stickers, black labels and so much more. The sequins, that come in the suite are ADORABLE! They have tiny little poppies in them!!! We used them on this card and the first card in this post.
This card uses one of the dies in the set, to cut out the background. We put it in opposite corners of the card layer. I love the white on white effect. The label is also one of two label dies in the set. There are poppy dies in both the die sets! Some for the DSP and some for the stamps! I can't wait to see all the ideas that come pop up on Pinterest with this suite!
I hope you enjoy these card ideas. If you give them a try I'd love to hear about it!
