Hi Friends,
Here's a little tag made by combining the stamp images to make a Penguin. By combining the different elements of the stamp set, you can make penguins, snowmen, chicks, owls, cardinals, birds. When I was initially designing this set, I made a few other critters as well, but there wasn't enough room to include all the body parts in this set. (There was a bunny, a reindeer, a dog and a cat, an elf and a Santa at one point...) Maybe in a future set.....
Here's the little Cardinal. By stamping the image on a piece of colored card stock, you can get a variety of results with the body stamp.
Here's another project featuring the little Cardinal. This cute little gift sack was made using my Tab Top Box pattern, item # TTX01. This pattern includes 4 different sizes of this gift sack, and is one of our most popular patterns.... especially for holiday gift giving. It's a great way to present your favorite person with some home baked goodies tucked inside. You can also cut a window in the front of the gift sack and add an acetate "window" so the goodies inside are visible.
Here's a little framed picture featuring the Snowman again. This frame is made using my Shadowbox Frame pattern, item #XPT06. The pattern includes 4 different sizes of frames. The one shown here is the 5 1/2" x 5 1/2" frame. The frame is constructed entirely out of my printed card stocks, and is actually very sturdy with the layering. I designed this frame because I had some odd size things I wanted to frame and couldn't find the right size frame. So after many days of engineering all the frame parts and pieces in the computer... viola! Cute little frames to add some holiday cheer to your home...or a lucky friend's home.
Mr. Snowman again...this time featured on a gift bag made from my Tall Bottle Sack pattern, item #TBX12. This pattern includes 3 different sizes of the bag. The tallest one fits a wine bottle or a sparkling cider bottle. This pattern is our most popular one... and you can see why. It's so versatile and can fit a variety of gifts. Tonya put an acetate window in this one...now all we need to do is make some cookies to go inside! I have some yummy recipes for these gift sacks... when I get back from CHA I'll post some of them here.
I thought I'd start my new blog by giving you a sneak peek at some of my new rubber stamp and scrapbook products we are releasing at the CHA show in Orlando next week. (Craft and Hobby Association show, July 28 - July 30). I have 13 new Unmounted Stamp Sets that are being produced in the clear polymer. (Yes, 13 is too a lucky number, lol!) In addition to the new rubber stamp sets, we'll be releasing 17 new "U-Cuts" - these are 8 1/2" x 11" sheets of images to cut out to use on your craft projects and 35+ new printed paper designs.
Here's one of the new Clear Stamp Sets, this one is Item #POL1:
The images shown above can be stamped and layered to create a variety of "friends" for use year round. Here's a few pictures of projects made using this stamp set:
Isn't this little Snowman adorable? Tonya Dechenne made all of these samples... I love how she added the stitching and twig arms for embellishment. This card also uses the following Darcie papers: PA1374 Lime Salvador - Darcie's 8 1/2" x 11" printed paper
PC135 Lipstick Card Stock
PC153 Winter Blue Card Stock
