I thought I’d start today by showing you a picture of all four of our new card kits:
Each card kit features one of the following patterned papers (from top left to bottom right): My Mind’s Eye Happier, Basic Grey Indie Bloom, October Afternoon Sidewalks, Echo Park Times & Seasons. We’ve paired the patterned paper with 10 card bases, 10 image panels, 10 envelopes, 3 yards of ribbon, and a package of Kaisercraft Pearls/Rhinestones. Each card kit is packaged up with a full color supply list and inspiration sheet in one of our new Petite Storage Boxes! Yep… you read that right! We’re now offering a storage solution that’s perfect for keeping your Petite stamp sets in order. Each storage box holds 6 Petite stamp sets:
If you read the December Release at a Glance then you know about our Petite-a-Palooza special! For every 6 Petite stamp sets you purchase, you’ll receive a FREE Petite Storage Box! YAY!
My first project uses the Indie Bloom Card Kit along with the new Fly Your Flag 1 stamp set! Each Fly Your Flag stamp set offers a uniquely shaped flag with a coordinating die. All you need to do is stamp the image, trim with the coordinating die, fold the flag in half, and string along a piece of ribbon or Baker’s Twine! Each flag image is double sided allowing you do decide if you’d like to spell out a word in the opening or just string a plain flag. The Fly Your Flag stamp sets coordinate with the previously release You’re My Type Upper and Lower alphabet sets. Let me show you just what I mean. Here’s a photo of the Fly Your Flag 1 stamp set and coordinating die:
The die trims out the entire flag shape and you can either cut them in half and pop up your pennants on foam tape or fold them in half and string them along a piece of ribbon or twine. Or maybe you’ll find a new and clever use for the diamond die shape on its own! I’m super excited for all the possibilities with this series of stamp sets!
My next project uses the Happier Card Kit and the new Simply Magical Petite Set. It just doesn’t get better than Cuppie and Unicorn! Wouldn’t this make a sweet set of cards for a young girl? I also used the Medium Scalloped Border die and an Ice White Pearl Pen on each scallop for more detail. And the clouds are covered with glitter for even more sparkle and shine (just like the sentiment says!). 🙂
