Stamp Off Hand Penned Set with Penned Flowers Dies


 Hey friends, Buffy, Susan and I are ready for the final
Stamp Off challenge for April.  Today, we are featuring our 
favorite new set from the upcoming 2021-22 Stampin' Up! Catalog


This is the Hand-Penned set on page 105 of the new
catalog.  This set comes with a brilliant set of dies, 
called Penned Flowers.  I fell in love with this bundle
the moment I saw it.  Trust me, you will see LOADS of
cards made out of this bundle.  I stamped the flowers
and leaves with the coordinating photopolymer images.
I added a couple of coordinating Genial Gems (page 144)
to accent the flowers.

The sentiment comes from the returning 
Sweet Strawberry set on page 43.  It is kind of perfect
for this bouquet of flowers.  I used a Blending Brush to
add a bit of color before I positioned the Hand-Penned image
with Stampin' Dimensionals.  Adding color behind the image
really helps to make stand out.

Thank you for stopping by, and please click on over to
check out Susan and Buffy's favorite new sets!

Snailed It Bundle


 Today is a snail kind of day.   This is the soon to be retired
Snailed It bundle on page 55 of the Jan-June 2021 Mini.  
I sure will miss these cute critters with matching dies.
I paired the snail with the Fine Floral DSP, which
will also be retiring.  

The cut-out comes from the 
Hippo and Friends set of dies.  The sentiment comes from
the Art Gallery set with coordinating Floral Gallery Dies.
These products will be moving forward to the new catalog,
that goes live May 4th.

Now, for a few more snails!  If you like them, snap them up
before they retire!!

Wreath Builder with Fine Art Floral DSP



This is another approach to using your "left over" DSP 
when we transition to a new Stampin' Up! catalog.
This is a simple way go diagonal!  Just cut a base and start
gluing strips of DSP.  It doesn't matter how wide they are,
or how many you use.

This card uses the Fine Art Floral DSP (p 33) and
Love You Always Foil (p 11).  Both retiring products are found in
the Jan - June 2021 Mini Catalog.  The sentiment comes from
the retiring Wreath Builder Dies.


Here is a bit more of the Fine Art Floral DSP,
for your entertainment!
