Announcing New 2015/16 Catalogue Product Shares

What is a Product Share?  

It is a way for you to get samples of several different products at a reasonable cost without having to purchase large quantities.  Product Shares are a great way to get a little of everything without breaking the bank!

How do they work?  

Peruse the list of Product Shares below.  Once you have decided on the ones you would like to purchase, click the link below to reserve your shares.

When your shares fill (the number available for each share is listed in (parentheses) beside the share’s name) I will email a Paypal (*) invoice to you to complete the payment process.  I will then place my order with Stampin' Up!  Upon arrival of the product, I will sort, cut, wrap/assemble, package and mail. This process can take upwards of 12-14 business days (barring any backorders with Stampin' Up!).

(Note:  It can take a while for shares to fill up, so patience is a virtue.  If you need items in a hurry it might be better to go ahead and order full packages of them.)

How will I get my product?

You will receive a mailing confirmation from me when they are on their way.  Postage fees vary depending on the size and weight of the share and are listed beside each Share description.  For multiple shares, combined shipping may be available, depending on size and weight.

(*) I use Paypal for all my billing needs.  However, a paypal account is not required to make your payment.  Just an email address and credit/debit card is all you need.  When you receive my paypal invoice, you can choose to pay using your paypal account funds or by credit/debit card.  Just follow their SUPER EASY instructions to make your payment via the method that is most convenient for you.

Now for a project!  Today's card once again features the You've Got This stamp set (told you I wasn't done with that one yet!)...

Any-occasion card featuring the You've Got This stamp set

I was having a less-than-great day on the weekend and so I decided I needed a little colour therapy.  I pulled out my blender pen and new In-colour markers and went to town.  The flower image is stamped in Staz On ink on watercolour paper.  I used the Watermelon Wonder Stampin' Write marker and a blender pen to colour the petals on the flower.  The centre is done with Delightful Dijon and the stem and leaves are done with Cucumber Crush.  I added a very faint outline in Sahara Sand to add depth to the image.

I die-cut the image using the Deco Labels framelits and adhered it to a card base in Sahara Sand, which I had stamped randomly in ink of the same colour using the crosshatch background image from the You've Got This set.  I added a couple of layers of 7/8" Lace Trim in Sahara Sand for a little texture.

I decided to omit a sentiment for now and left the inside blank...sometimes it's nice to have cards on-hand that one can quickly add a sentiment to for a particular occasion.

My rather large new catalogue order is arriving tomorrow...I foresee LOTS of crafting time this weekend and LOTS of new projects to share next week!  Stay tuned...

To celebrate this big day, I have a project that uses several items from the new catty...check it out:

Any occasion card featuring the I Think You're Great stamp set and Cherry on Top DSP

 Now, if this looks familiar, it is because I CASE'd it from the fabulously awesome new catty.  I used strips of Cherry on Top DSP and then layered the stamped image from the I Think You're Great set on top.  I added a bit of white Baker's twine and a few silver sequins for some sparkle.  The little heart is punched from Watermelon Wonder card stock using the Itty Bitty Accents pack.  I layered an Itty Bitty Accents Epoxy Sticker overtop...I love the dimension it creates!

The Whisper White background panel is embossed using the new Boho Chic TIEF...so many great uses for that folder...it's quickly becoming one of my go-to choices!

On the inside of the card I kept it simple, creating a cluster of little banners from leftover scraps of Cherry on Top DSP.  Clean and simple and oh, so easy!

Now, I'm off to put my order in for new catty goodies...the question is to expedite or not hmmm...stay tuned ;)  In the meantime, here are this week's new Weekly Deals for your shopping pleasure :)

One More Sleep!

Just one more day till the brand new 2015/16 Annual Catalogue of Awesomeness goes live!  I am just itching to get my inky little hands on the fabulous new items in that book!  To whet your appetite, here is another little sneak peek for you...

Encouragement Card featuring the You've Got This stamp set

Are you tired of this beautiful flower image yet?  I sure hope not!  I am just getting started with it!  On this card I used two of the new In-colours: Mint Macaron and Tip Top Taupe...I absolutely love the look of those two colours together.  I stamped the crosshatched background image from the You've Got This stamp set in Tip Top Taupe ink, stamping off twice on scrap paper before stamping on the card stock so as to get a very faded image. I stamped the flower image over top using the same ink colour, but this time full-strength.  The sentiment is also stamped in Tip Top Taupe.  I layered the stamped panel on a piece of Mint Macaron card stock and added a little ruffle of Tip Top Taupe 1" Dotted Lace Trim.

The Whisper White background panel is embossed using the new Boho Chic TIEF and is mounted on a card base in Tip Top Taupe.  I added a little Mint Macaron butterfly punched using the Bitty Butterfly punch, and added a few little pearls.

On the inside I stamped the flower image again in Tip Top Taupe ink and the sentiment in Mint Macaron.

I'll be up bright and early tomorrow morning to place my new catty order in the hope that it ships out by the end of the day.  I just can't wait for that magical box of awesomeness to arrive!
