I am so happy that the new 2020 Aug-Dec Mini Catalog went live on Tuesday. Now I can show you all the new products I have been waiting to play with! This first card I made, I knew I HAD to use the Life Is Beautiful Stamp Set, which was inspired by Million Sales Achiever LeeAnn Greff. I know a Million in sales, that is incredible, right (#mygoal)? I love, love, love this stamp set!

I started with a Cinnamon Cider cardbase that I stamped the leaves in a random pattern using Cinnamon Cinder Ink. I glued down a strip of Shaded Spruce cardstock to the cardbase, then glued down a piece of Cinnamon Cider Ribbon, then on top of that, I glued a piece of Braided Linen Trim. I added a bit of Plaid Tidings DSP that I adhered with dimensionals since I am layering the DSP over the ribbon. Otherwise, it wouldn’t lie flat. I stamped the tree trunk in Early Espresso Ink, then added some leaves using Shaded Spruce ink. To give the leaves a little dimension, I stamped off the ink on half of the stamped images. Stamp the sentiment in Cinnamon Cider, then adhere the completed stamped image to the DSP with dimensionals as well. And lastly, attach a bow and sit back and enjoy for work of art!

Don’t you love the artwork in the stamp set? This set can take you throughout the year and help you create a card for any occasion. I have a few more projects to show you that I created using this stamp set, but I may create a class using it instead. Not sure still deciding. What do you think, projects, or a class?
Ok, my friends, I am signing off for now. Let me know if you have any questions about the new catalog or if you are having issues utilizing the new online store.
Happy Stamping!
