"In Color" Gift Card Set

Hi Crafters,
Here's a new video for you!  This is how to make a set of "SPRING" looking cards using Stampin' Up "In Colors" 2010-2011!  They have a watercolor paper look to them.
In Colors are the 5 colors the company picks every year that are "IN" for that year of stamping and crafting!  In Colors are  Blushing Bride, Pear Pizazz, Concord Crush, Poppy Parade and Peach Parfait!  We will have a new set of  "In Colors" in June of this year.
Enjoy...

Keep on crafting,
Linn

P.S. Next video will be decorating the envelopes and making the box for this set of cards!

Big Shot Adhesive Sheets making Ribbon Flowers Easier to Make

Hi Crafters,
Here is a new video that I think you will love if you make your own flowers from ribbon or fabric.  All you do it cut circles from the Big Shot Adhesive sheets (shown in the Occasions Mini Catalog - pg 39, you get 12 - 12" x 12" sheets that fit the Designer Series Paper for making stickers for only 14.95 #120805! Catalog end April 30, 2011) anyway, use your punches or big shot dies to make your circles any size you want and watch this video to see how simple it is to do!  I'm not usually that good at making the small flowers and I don't really care to sew them by hand so this video is super cool and so easy, I have made bunches and bunches of different sized flowers!  Enjoy...

Let's keep on crafting,
Linn

Origami Triangle Treat Holder with a Twist VIDEO

Hi Crafters,
Today, I came across an older project doing little treat holders just by folding paper, so I decided to make it just a bit fancier, which in this case would be the twist part. LOL  You can make these in minutes for a shower, birthday,wedding or just about any occasion!  Just depends on the paper you use and what design it has.  I personally love the Designer Series Paper by Stampin' Up, not only because I sell it but because of the weight!  It's sturdier than other papers and everything from Stampin' Up co-ordinates with  their ink, paper, (40 different colors), stamp sets, and punches!  It takes the decisions of what goes with what out of the equation and makes your projects go much faster!  Believe me, some days I need a card or box and don't have the mind working properly and so I can grab colors that match in a heartbeat and make a project.  TTL...
I hope you enjoy this new video...

Have a great day and keep on crafting,
Linn
