The new Needlepoint Nook suite in the 2019 Occasions catalog is beautiful. Nothing says handmade like stitchery! It reminds me of being a young girl and learning to sew and embroider with my mother, and to needlepoint with my aunt Edna. I’ve used the Needle & Thread stamp set and Needlepoint Elements Framelits Dies (buy together and save 10%) with the Needlepoint Nook Designer Series Paper to create this sweet friend card.

Here’s another sneak peek of new products from the 2019 Occasions catalog, which goes live in only 5 days! I used the Beauty Abound stamp set and Butterfly Beauty Thinlits Dies (get the bundle to save 10%) along with the Wood Textures Designer Series Paper to create this lovely friend card.

Here’s what I did:
Cut and scored with my Stampin’ Trimmer:
Early Espresso card stock (CS) cut to 4-1/4″ x 11″, then scored in half at 5-1/2″
Wood Textures Designer Series Paper (DSP) cut to 4″ x 5-1/4″
Powder Pink CS cut to 3″ x 1″
Whisper White CS cut to 4″ x 5-1/4″ for the inside of the card base
Stamped with the Beauty Abounds stamp set:
outer sentiment in Lovely Lipstick ink onto the Powder Pink CS
small butterfly in Lovely Lipstick ink onto a scrap of Powder Pink CS
inner sentiment in Lovely Lipstick ink onto the 4″ x 5-1/4″ Whisper White CS (Oops! I forgot to photograph the inside of the card. The sentiment is “…out of a whole world of people.”)
Die cut using the Butterfly Beauty Thinlits:
small stamped butterfly
large butterfly background shape from a scrap of Powder Pink CS
large butterfly foreground shape from a scrap of Lovely Lipstick CS
NOTE: I had no trouble cutting the butterflies using the Magnetic Platform on my Big Shot. If your butterflies don’t cut well, use the Precision Base Plate with the regular platform.
Assembled the card:
burnished the fold in the card base with a Bone Folder
DSP layer glued onto the front of the card base
large Lovely Lipstick butterflies glued onto the large Powder Pink butterflies, then the whole thing glued onto the DSP layer
NOTE: I recommend putting glue on just part of the large die cut and lining it up, then doing another small section. Otherwise the large delicate die cut can flop around on you.
small butterfly glued onto the sentiment
sentiment glued over the butterflies using Stampin’ Dimensionals
Whisper White CS glued onto the inside of the card base

Today’s card is another one I made using the new Birthday Cheer bundle. You can see the first one here. I used a piece of the new How Sweet It Is Designer Series Paper for the background, and took the remaining colors from that paper pack. These new products will be available January 3 – that’s just 6 days away! The Layering Ovals Framelits Dies added the perfect base for the sentiment and stamped cupcake.

It’s time for the InKing Royalty Blog Hop! This year’s Blog Hop themes have all been inspired by popular songs, and this month’s song is “Pretty Paper.” The main lyric is, “Pretty paper, pretty ribbon of blue.” As you might guess, our hop today is filled with projects that feature paper and ribbon. We have a wide variety of projects, and we’re excited to share our creations with you. After you read my post, I hope you’ll hop over to the next person on the list that you’ll find farther down. You can hear the song “Pretty Paper” by Roy Orbison at the base of this post.
For my card I chose what I think is one of the prettiest pieces of paper we carry right now. It’s from the Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper, and it’s covered in lots of gorgeous flowers. I especially love the big pink peonies. I knew I wanted to use some of the brand new ribbon from the 2019 Occasions and Sale-a-bration catalogs, so I chose a card stock color to coordinate with that. The Petal Pink/Whisper White 5/8″ Variegated Ribbon is from the Occasions catalog, and the Lemon Lime Twist ribbon is part of the Organdy Ribbon Combo Pack from the Sale-a-bration brochure. They will be available on January 3, 2019.
After you read my post, I hope you’ll hop on over to Pam Morris at Tap Tap Stamp. Scroll down to see the list of stops on the hop. Be sure to check out all of them. There’s a lot of talent in this group and you don’t want to miss any of it!

Assembled the card:

Right now you have 3 stamp types to choose from: wood mount, clear mount, and photopolymer. In future catalogs, beginning with the 2019 Occasions Catalog, there will be *2 options: cling and photopolymer. Cling stamps are essentially the same as the clear mount stamps we have now with one big difference: the individual stamp labels are very, very clingy. There will be no chance of these stamps falling off the block. If you want to try them out now,join my team and get Occasions catalog products in your Starter Kit!
*In North America, the large background stamps will still be available in wood mount.
