It is with a ton of stress and great sadness that I realize I must push back the release date for our Spring Release by a week and move it to January 1st. I am still feeling my way through this industry and learning that even when extra padding in timelines is added, the stamp and die manufacturers get overwhelmed and push back their ship dates.
Rather than have you wait so long after you've paid for an order (and to literally help me sleep better at night) I have decided it would be best to move the release date all together. All next week I will be featuring the new stamps though so I hope you will hold tight and enjoy all the ideas I have to share using them. :)
For those who have ordered the fishtail banners on pre-order I promise to make those a priority and package those up for shipment the moment they arrive which I'm hoping is just after Christmas.
Big Hugs!
Hello everyone, Melissa Here! Today I have a card to share with you
using one of my favorite stamp sets of this release, Bundled Up. I love
making cute winter scenes, which this little penguin is perfect for!
To
create the card for today I first cut a square of white cardstock. I
stamped the two penguins with their accessories and masked them off with
masking paper, I also masked off a snowy hill underneath them. I then
stamped the sentiment above the two penguins with VersaMark ink and heat
embossed it using white embossing powder.
I made the sky by first
blending several different purple shades of Simon Says Stamp ink
together, and then adding little dots with a white gel pen for the snow.
I then pealed up the masks and colored the penguins with Copic markers.
To finish the card I mounted it onto a piece of white card with a black
border. That finishes up the card for today.
We're down to our last few sneak peeks before the stamps and dies are available for purchase on January 1st. For today's peek, we have another look at the Sending My Love stamp set. Depending on the choices you make, this fun set can also be stretched to work for Easter and has loads of fun sentiment options revolving around the theme of "sending".
I hope you all have a
fantastic Christmas!
