More Bloomin’ Love

Today’s cards not only use the Bloomin’ Love stamp set, but have stepped it up by adding the coordinating Bloomin’ Hearts Thinlits Die (140621). These two items are found in a great money saving bundle (140818) so you can step it up too and save 15% while you’re doing it!

This first card was given to me by Irene – I just love how the heart is teamed up with our New Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush (141897).

Bloomin’ Love

Have you seen the Bloomin’ Love stamp set in the Occasions Catalog? It’s got some great images and a coordinating Thinlits Die that is gorgeous. While this set is great for Valentine’s it is also wonderful for other occasions such as anniversaries and weddings.

Here are two cards I received in my recent swap that use the Bloomin’ Love suite of products.

This first one is from Joanne – simple and sweet. I love the bit of Pink Pirouette Seam Binding that adds more texture to the card.

I’ve given you the full supply list below.

And this second one is from Marni  – Isn’t the Blushing Bride Glimmer Paper lovely? I find I am reaching for it time and again. I can’t get enough of this stuff.

Marni also used the sequins from our Love Blossoms Embellishment Kit (140551) to add a bit of bling.

I can’t decide which I like best – so why not leave me a comment and let me know which is your favorite.

Then stop by tomorrow when I’ll be sharing more cards with you that use this suite of products.

Love Blossom Domed Treat Box

A New Catalog is a lot of fun – and of course when it’s Sale-a-bration, it’s even more fun! So to start the New Year off with a bang I held my NEW Catalog Sneak Peek Event on the 3rd of January – two days before the catalog launched! That meant that everyone who attended was able to play with some of the new products and see them before it went live! Whoo hoo! A great way to start off the New Year, right?

In today’s post I’m going to share with you some photos of the event. This first one is a picture of the classroom set up – to show you a bit of what greeted everyone who attended.

And this second one shows you what was at everyone’s spot.

Everyone who attended received a couple of special treats from me – and in today’s Video Tutorial I’ll show you how the little chocolate holder was made.

Love Blossom Domed Treat Box Video Tutorial (1)

I call these Love Blossom Domed Treat Box – I’m so original, not  with names – but well I called them this because they’re domed or treasure box shaped!

I used our new 6×6 paper stack, Love Blossoms since they were the perfect size! I didn’t even have to cut the paper!

Want to see a quick video tutorial on how to make them? Well, here you go. (Sorry about the froggy voice, I’m fighting winter allergies and just couldn’t wait any longer to share this with you.)

Domed Treat Box Video Tutorial:

A great project, huh? And it holds quite a bit so you can put almost any item you’d like inside. Of course, I wanted to pamper my guests with some Valentine chocolate, (before Larry found it!) so this was perfect.

And of course, our Honeycomb Happiness (Sale-a-bration 1412788/141291) is an item that you can earn FREE during Sale-a-bration. I love the images and thought the sentiment was perfect for this project!

I’ve given you a complete supply list for this project below. And I don’t know about you, but I find the Envelope Punch Board a fantastic addition to my stamping supplies and have been finding all kinds of things besides envelopes to make with it! If you haven’t already seen my Getting Started with the Envelope Punch Board Tutorial – why not check it out now?
