Fun with the new Laser Cut Paper

Fun with the New Laser Cut Paper

I don’t know about you but I’m in LOVE with this gorgeous paper. It’s so light and lacy and makes quite a statement on any cardstock. The only thing that could make it better would be to heat emboss it, so that’s what I did. This idea was actually the cards I sent to the mom’s for Mother’s day. Sadly the photos don’t quite do the cards justice, it’s very hard to get a good shot of the metallic reflection, but take my word for it they are even more stunning in person. Check out the video below and my assortment of samples using this technique.

Happy Graduation!

It’s that time once again, graduation season! An exciting time as new graduates don a cap and gown, and start a new chapter in their life. This year I had quite a few graduation cards (13!) to make so I wanted to come up with a simple design that would be easy to mass produce.

Hello stamparatus, my answer to easy bulk stamping! I also came up with this fun new(?) technique I’m calling targeted embossing, which is super easy with the perfect positioning of the stamparatus. See my video below for all the details. I also wanted to give a shout out to Carol Borgeson of Carol B Crafts who came up with an adorable way to make the cute graduation cap. You can check out her original video here: https://youtu.be/CTNr4CqvoKk

Daisy Flower Pot

Daisy Flower Pot

This weeks project was made using the daisy delight stamps set and coordinating daisy punch. These adorable mini flower pots make a great gift or centerpiece for an event and best of all you can fit two of them into one of the woodcrate boxes! I hope you enjoy my tutorial.

This project did use some non-Stampin’ Up items. Here are the Amazon links to the additional items I used in the video.

Star Wars Rey Card

Star Wars Rey Card

May the fourth might not quite be here yet, but I still wanted to go ahead and share this awesome Star Wars themed Rey card. It is yet another example of the versatility of the wonderful Beautiful You set.

Ready to make one yourself check out my Youtube video below.

**Update – So apparently pregnancy brain strikes again and I forgot to show in the video how I drew her stick in hand. A special thanks to the ladies who pointed out my omission.

Here is how I did it, I started with a scrap of card stock that had a straight edge. I lined up the straight edge of paper between her two hands and used the edge as a guide to draw a straight line. I skipped over the stamped section of Rey. From my guide line I added width to fill out the stick and rounded the ends. I hope that makes sense.

Color Revamp

So with the new retirement list now out (see my last post) we had additional exciting new. Our Stampin’ Up colors are getting a total revamp, which means we are loosing several favorites colors and getting several new colors.  Besides the new colors SU is also redesigning the ink pads. The new ones are easier to open and seal better. Plus they will have an additional defoamer to help keep the ink from bubbling ( a newer issue we have seen in a few colors) So you may see colors that are staying on the retiring list these are just the old style ink pads as we transition to the new and improved design.

These are the colors that are retiring from the catalog. All product with these colors are retiring. So now is the time to stock up on your favorites.

Now while it is sad to see these colors leaving I do have good news several retired colors are coming back in the new catalog. I’m happy to share that you can look forward to seeing the return of these favorites in the new catalog starting June 1.

These are the new colors being added to the color families.

Here are the new upcoming color families, you can see several changes but overall these families look awesome and the new colors flow well. I don’t know about you but I’m very excited!!
