It is a great stamp set to tell someone how handsome they are. 🙂 I tell Orion all of the time that he is a handsome boy (and spoiled).

It is the weekend!  Hope you have fun plans!

I will be mailing out packets for our Stamp Camp next weekend (Sat., June 20).  Look for those along with a few extra treats.  They will look a little different than they normally do. There will be 12 cards (6 designs/2 of each design).  You will also get some product in your bag as an extra bonus.  I had to order some extra product, so thank you for your patience.

Look for happy mail!

#867 – Borders Abound – Fri., June 12, 2020


I fell in love with this set when I first saw it!  It reminded me one of the border sets that was part of the SU catalog over 20 years ago.  It was designed by Kimberly Cook as part of her million dollar in career sales milestone.

All four cards use the same techniques: Emboss Resist & Watercolor Wash

INSTRUCTIONS
Faux Emboss Resist. Use large brush tip aqua painter to create wash. Make sure completely dry and then use VersaMark to stamp border image over wash. Add gold embossing powder and heat set.  Cut strip Just slightly larger than border image. Cut small strip of DSP and use dimensional to add to  card base, just above bottom of card. add watercolor wash strip just above small strip, but use SNAIL to attach so that it sits right on top of card base. Cut strip of DSP top fit rest of card base, but slightly shorter. Attach with dimensionals. Use Lovely Label Pick A Punch to create tag base for sentiment and size to fit sentiment. Punch hole with handheld hole punch.

Last call for BOGO sale
I added a Fri., 6/12 option 11 am to 2 pm
Sat., 6/13 – 9 am to noon
 

Dates/times for BOGO – Sign up for a 30 min. time slot

You would be shopping by yourself (or with a friend if you bring someone)

Reminder BOGO sale – when you shop my BOGO sale, you get 50% credit to shop in the new catalog. For example, you spend $50 buying my retired merchandise, you would then have a $25 credit to shop in the new catalog. You would have until 8/31/2020 to use your catalog credit.
As we continue with different phases of businesses opening, I will host a “BOGO” retired sale this year. It will be a little different than the past. If you would like to shop in person, you can sign up for a time slot to shop from tables in my garage. You will need to wear a mask, practice social distancing and get a squirt of hand sanitizer before entering. Of course, if you are ill, you will want to skip the in-person. You just need to message or email me, to let me know the date/time that works best for you. The slots will be available on a first come, first serve basis. Just message me with your top time choices and I will get you scheduled! Everyone loves a good deal!
Stamps, dies, cardstock, DSP, punches, accessories…clearing out the retiring to make room for the new!!!

I will follow the BOGO sale up with a Virtual sale on my FB group on Tues., 6/16/2020. It will be posted at 5 pm CST. This one will NOT be a BOGO sale. It will be priced as is. Porch pick up will be available or Priority Mail shipping will also be an option.
