They're Almost Here!

I can't wait to share with you my samples that I'll create... I'm placing my order first thing on Thursday morning:)  Let me know if you'd like to add yours to the order:)  Email me your order for your thinlits between today and July 31st and purchase any of the coordinating stamp sets listed at 20% off!!  

THINLITS CARD DIES They've been called flip cards, flip flop cards, swing cards, and more-but they have always been a bit tricky to create. Not anymore! Our amazing new Thinlits Card Dies cut and score to create a card that flips in just one step. Item Description Price 133479 Label Card Thinlits Die $40.95 133480 Circle Card Thinlits Die $40.95 Available August 1, 2013 These new card dies come with extra die pieces that have versatile designs, so you can use them on other projects, not just flip cards. (The Circle Card Thinlits Die comes with 10 total pieces; the Label Card Thinlits Die comes with nine total pieces.) With the number of dies you're getting, plus the die that creates the card itself, the price is a great value-especially to create an interactive card! They would make great announcements, invitations, or Christmas cards.  The main shape in the cards (circle and label) can work with a lot of our stamp images so you can create tons of different kinds of cards using many different stamp sets. Here are just a few suggestions to get you started: Label Card Thinlits Die (item 133479): Happy Day Stamp Set (item 130294 W item 130297 C) Circle Card Thinlits Die (item 133480): Worth the Wait Stamp (item 131094 W) Five-Way Flower Stamp (item 131088 W) Both card dies pair well with: Oh, Hello Stamp Set (item 131931 W item 130733 C) Yippee-Skippee! Stamp Set (item 131341 W item 131344 C) Really Good Greetings Stamp Set (item 130330 W item 130333 C) Regarding Dahlias Stamp Set (item 130324 W item 130327 C) These dies also work well with our new magnetic platform (item 130658) so you can place the dies exactly where you want them!

Gifts For My Girls

These were the little gifts I put together for my girlfriends who came with me to convention this year.  I made them eacha  bag tag for their Stampin' Up bags so that they could identify them from the other 6000:)  I also made them a little mini scrapbook so that they could choose to scrapbook the trip when they got home or just use it for another holiday:)  I had these little make up pouches which I filled with things like hand cream, candy, nail files, hand sanitzer, kleenex, lip balm and other goodies:)

The stunning paper featured on all of these little tags is the Modern Medley DSP which is part of the Buy 3 Get One Free promotion that is on for another 4 days!  This is not one you want to miss!!!!
