I Love It When My Goodies Come Together!

Hello Everyone

One thing I love about Stampin' Up! is the co-ordination you get - with matching card stock, ink and accessories to stamps matching punches.

Here we have a classic example. In the Spring/Summer catalogue, we introduced the Mini Treat Bag Die and now with the arrival of the new big catalogue from Stampin' Up! we have a co-ordinating stamp set.

The Mini Treat Bag Die set comes with a banner, heart and star cutter (along with much more) and these shapes are reflected in the new stamps - how beautifully they go together.

The stamp set is called You're So Sweet and I have used it on each of the treat bag projects below. See how the star is outlined with a line and the word 'hello' (slightly obscured behind the ribbon on this photo) - and the 'just for you' sentiment is inlaid behind the frame on the spotty bag.

Don't you love it when your goodies come together?

Gift Bags on my Birthday :)

Hello Everyone

And happy birthday to me! I thought as it is my birthday, I would share some gift bags made with the new Gift Bag Punch Board from Stampin' Up!

This is such a versatile tool - I am discovering more and more you can make with it so I am going to be offering a special Masterclass on using it. If you are in the Southampton area - let me know if you would like to come along.

You may have seen the smaller of these bags on a video I did a week or so ago - but the tall one looks great doesn't it?

I used a sheet of our new Neutrals Stack 12X12 designer paper, some stunning Watermelon Wonder lace ribbon and the Just For You comes from a stamp set called You're So Sweet.

OK - off to have fun on my birthday now….see you next Tuesday for a new video.
