Sneak Peek

I got some new goodies this week!  I ordered a few things out of the upcoming Spring mini catalog and also a few Sale-a-bration goodies!  You are going to LOVE the great stuff in these two catalogs!

The two tone ribbon is so rich!  I love love love it!  And the More Amore Specialty DSP is so lovely in Pool Party and Razpberry Ripple and Pink Pirouette.    And I love the new Oval framelits dies.  I was hoping Stampin' Up! would come up with some oval dies!!   Now I'm waiting for the circle dies-- I hope they get some! I used the houndstooth embossing folder on the large pink panel.  And on the little butterfly, I just put the little butterfly in the middle of the houndstooth heart in the hearts Embosslit to get the the tiny houndstooth pattern.  The great sentiment is from Feel Goods.
I just can't get over that cute new little butterfly punch that pairs so nicely with the larger butterfly.  You can never have too many butterfly punches I always say! :)  I used the row of hearts embossing folder and repeated it 4 or 5 times down the pink panel to get the heart pattern all over instead of just in a strip.
This easel card shows off the oval dies quite well.  And I love the die cut heart from the Specialty DSP!  The skinny satin Pool Party ribbon is part of a button and ribbon pack available during Sale-a-Bration free with a $50 order!  I used the houndstooth embossing folder on the pool party panel, and the oval embossing folder on the Raspberry panel.  The Heart of Heart Sizzlits and Heart punches make a nice center to the die cut doily heart.  And look at that ribbon rose!  It comes on a spool of ribbon.  I just cut off one rose and put it in the middle.  So beautiful!

Christmas Dove Ornament

This is the hostess project we made this month.  Such a beautiful dove with the sparkly snowflake.  We used the Elegant Bird Bigz die (cut one out of poster board and cut 2 out of DSPs facing opposite directions for front and back).  Cut one Snowflake Bigz die out of sparkly glitter cardstock.  Faceted jewel button.  Lace ribbon bow.  Gold cord was used for the hanger (retired.)
