So grateful

There are several things I love on this card.

First, the Softly Falling embossing folder. It works any time of year, even though it's in the Holiday Catalog. I love the texture. You can choose to have the "heavy" texture anywhere on the card, because this is a 6x6 folder. So many options!

Second, the gold candy dots. Are you wondering where they are in the catalog? They are actually the White Perfect Accents colored with a gold Sharpie. You're welcome.

Third, the "grateful," in Gold Glimmer Paper. The word come from the Seasonal Frame Thinlits Dies in the Holiday Catalog (page 40). I love the script-y font and the bit of shine the word brings to the card.

Fourth, the circle of flowers from Into the Woods Designer Series Paper. I just used the 2 1/2 inch circle punch to isolate the flower set I wanted. You could also easily use circle framelits.

I hope you're making something you love this week! If you are, share it here!

New idea with Mini Treat Bag Thinlits

I love the Mini Treat Bag Thinlits. I have made *lots* of them, and I use them all the time. They cut cardstock or Designer Series Paper. Here's a new way to use the Thinlits to make something different!







Look at all the great pieces that come in this set:

Some projects I've shown on my blog before:

Friendly Pillowbox

The Square Pillowbox Thinlits are fast becoming my favorites! It's so simple to make a pretty package for gift giving!

Cotton Paper Flowers

I thought I had posted this project on my blog back when we made it at our August Stamp Club, but apparently not!

We used the Cotton Paper Assortment (Watermelon Wonder and Crushed Curry) to make this simple but flashy flower.

Now Stampin Up has a quick video showing another fun flower with the Cotton Paper!

Just Be Happy

Sometimes a square card is fun to design around--something different is refreshing. We can make envelopes in any size using the Envelope Punch Board, so the sky is the limit!
