Three for Today

We are back this week with content from three videos, Sharon's Wednesday night video, Mona's Friday video and Saturday morning's video. We have a lot to share so let's get to it. First up is Doodlebug’s Advent Calendar. We have several in stock and I'll share Doodlebug's sample below. In the two photos below you can see Sharon used a piece of Doodlebug's 12X12 paper for the roof slope. The second photo is the template she created and templates for the diagonal sides of the chimney. This is a really fun build an you can use Doodlepops to decorate along with creating mats for the different days and other embellishments.




Next up is a little Hero Arts and a lot of Photoplay. These are Letterpress plates.

We had a lot of new Photoplay and Sharon decided to create a bunch of simple cards using Photoplay's dies. 


On this sample Sharon created the background using blended distress inks and to finish the card she used her favorite glimmer sparkle mist.



Sharon then decided to create another background using three red Distress Inks, Festive Berries, Candied Apple and Worn Lipstick. She will share her finished card in a future post.

A few more die sets and samples.













All of Sharon's samples. They are all in the store for your viewing pleasure and inspiration.

Gina K has these Glimmer Mists. They have a pearl like finish.

New woodland scene stamps, Deco Christmas trees and sentiments for the inside of your holiday cards.

Next up is Honey Bee. They have a large release featuring stamps, paper, dies, stencils and embossing folders.



Honey Bee's Lovely Layers features these two deer. On the back is a guide for the layering of each figure along with color suggestions.

Beautiful Snowflakes that can be die cut and used individually or you can layer them.

A two layer snowflake stencil.


We think this is going to be a popular choice. This lantern stamp with matching die can be used in so many creative ways.

This is also a Lovely Layers die set featuring a window with so many options for decorating. Remember, you can also use the variety of parts and pieces with other dies and stamps. These are very versatile die sets.


This die set creates a box that you can use for holiday treats or even a gift card holder.

This stamp set coordinates with the box set above.

New paper packs with pattern and coordinating solids.


The cover plate from above along with their Candy Cane die set.

More layered stamp trees and sentiment sets.


49 and Market's newest release, Moonlit Garden. This is a great release for formal and wedding photos. We have all the add-ons from ephemera to full 12X12 paper packs to enamel dots, film strips, washi tape, stickers and more!













What’s a holiday without Penny Black? Create a scene with these outdoor stamp sets.



Their large word die is HOPE.


They have new Stick & Shine sets. You cut out the image you want and using a bone folder, popsicle stick or their new rub on tool, transfer the image to your paper. Then you can cover with foil, burnish and you have a shiny image or phrase for your cards.


Mona featured new Spellbinders that are ornaments but can be much more. Here is an overall sample of each die set along with a phrase and a word set that is new. As you can see from the die on the right, you get all the embellishments to create a wide variety of ornaments from each set. There is an ornament set, a Santa and North Pole set and two animal sets.

If you go to the Spellbinders website you can download a visual guide to the pieces for each ornament and how they are assembled.



You can also create tags from these cute images. Just mount them on tag backs, cut off the ornament loop and you have another way to use these fun dies.


Gotta have a Santa (and his reindeer are right behind him!)





You can also mix and match add-ons included in each set to create new and different animals or decorate them in your own way.


Everything to make the finished ornaments on the left is included in the die set on the right.


I almost forgot this new Spellbinders die that Mona loved, tea cups - think of the combinations!

That's is for this week. I hope everyone had fun at Stamp Camp this weekend, Monday and Tuesday. Go Bills tonight! 

A favorite of my husband, Calvin and Hobbes is my funny for the week.

I'm out of town next weekend for my semi-annual scrapbooking retreat. I promise, I am actually going to scrap this time. I've got a bag full of 49 and Market Ultimate Page kits, some add-ons and lots of photos. So until my next post, stay crafty and above all Stay Safe!
