Saturday Catalog CASE - Just for You

The new catalog...best known as the 2016 Annual Catalog...will be here soon!  I am seriously soooo super super duper over the moon excited about this catalog.  Seriously!  The new products are the BEST EVER...and...bonus...the concept art in this catalog is beyond A.MA.ZING!  Again...seriously!  I want to CASE every project...so...I've decided to start...CASEing, that is...and I plan to share a catalog CASE here, each Saturday.

And so...here's the first...Saturday Catalog CASE!

 
This project...from page 16...features the You're So Sweet Stamp Set and the Mini Treat Bag Thinlits Dies.  I love that these little bags are perfect for more than treats...they're great to hold a sweet card or notecard...or a gift card...and with graduations just around the corner...I've had a chance to get ahead a bit.

And here's the deal...you can, of course, grab these products in the new, 2016 Annual Catalog...but they're offered as a bundle...for a 15% savings...until May 31, 2016!

Everyday Extraordinary - Sweet as Can Be

It's been a super long time since I've posted an Everyday Extraordinary...so I thought it was about time!  The idea actually came to me when I was cruising through our local super market, HyVee.  They have an amazing sweet treats department (formally known as the bakery), and I came upon this sweet, whoopie pie.  Now...if you follow me on Pinterest...and you should...you've probably noticed that I have an entire Pinterest board dedicated to the whoopie pie!  Yep...Gotta Love A Whoopie Pie.  So...I picked one up...and spent just a few minutes to make it an Everyday Extraordinary!


I'm tellin' ya...this new Sprinkles Punch (available on June 1st) made this so easy...and fun!  I simply punched a few cardstock scraps...saved a few pieces for the shaker element...and scattered the rest around!  That's it!  Oh...and the new Foam Adhesive Strips...also available on June 1st...make shakers a cinch!

As always...

Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team Blog Hop - It's All About the Flowers!

Welcome to the Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team Blog Hop!  I'm so happy you're here!

This hop is all about the flowers!  Yep...our mission...flowers!

Hmmm...what to do?  And then...I remembered that I'd been wanting to do some of those cute little notebooks that I've been seeing everywhere...and I'd been wanting to start writing some notes about gratefulness...and so...these were born!


Little notebooks...with my favorite daisies...the perfect place for me jot down my moments of gratitude.  And there's a bonus...they're so, super easy!  Here's a mini tutorial:


 



There are so many options for these little cuties!  I used Kraft Cardstock for my covers...because I wanted to highlight our wonderful flowers...but any Designer Series Papers would work wonderfully, too! You can add as many or as little pages as you like...and the binding can be done in a number of ways.  Okay...I don't know if this is actually "binding" per se...but this running stitch works perfectly for me...and I'm calling it binding.  And just a note...if you're going to stamp on your notebook, you'll want to do it prior to scoring, folding and binding.  Like I did here:


Here...I've also added extra holes and completed binding all the way up and down, including including over and under the ends. 

And this one...I've bound the same way and double knotted on the outside.  

If you're hopping in order you've just come from the amazing Steffi...and I just know that my friend Susan will have something incredible, too!

Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team Blog Hop

Welcome to the Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team Blog Hop!  I'm so happy you're here!

Each month the team has an "open" hop...which means the sky's the limit in our product choices.  In an unusual move...for me...I chose florals...the Botanical Builders Framelits Dies...to be exact.  See...I'm not really a floral girl...but these Framelits seemed be begging for me to notice them...to pay attention to them.  So...I started looking for a bit of inspiration...and I came across the idea of a pastel tropical baby shower theme.  Hmmm...I wasn't needing to do an entire shower...but I always love to have something in my stash for a sweet new baby...something for a gift and a card.  Okay...and here it is...


Botanical Builder Framelits Dies...paired with sentiments from the Made with Love Stamp Set.


I started with the box...and a pile of die cuts...and just kept building until I got something that I loved!  I've also added two of my favorite, retiring items...1-1/4" Burlap Ribbon and the Tag a Bag Gift Box.  I've loved these boxes...so much...and don't get me started on how much I LOVE the burlap ribbon.  But...good stuff is on the way in the new Annual Catalog, too...and I know I'll love it all just as much!


And here's the must have matching card. 


If you're hopping from the beginning you've just come from the talented Steffi...and I know you'll want to hop over to see what the amazing Susan has for you!
