  • Dear Heart for those Great Boy Cards

    Dear Heart for those Great Boy Cards

    I don’t know if you remember the Sweetie Pie photopolymer stamp set that came out a few months ago.  It was filled with these cute sketch art girl faces and a couple frames and accessory stamp images.  Turns out it was popular and sold out pretty fast.  Well, today, Stampin’ Up put out another stamp set like that only this time its all about the boys!  It’s called Dear Heart and look at some of the cute stuff they are making with it:

    Both of these cards were designed by the concept artists as Stampin’ Up, and I think they are so fun!

    You can see all the options and different images in the set – can I just say that alligator/dinosaur guy just makes me smile. Smile

    And as a reminder, today is Tuesday which means new weekly deals!  I especially love that Washi Tape!  If you would like any, let me know and I can try to organize a group order.

  • A Totally Different Style with the New Sweetie Pie Stamps

    A Totally Different Style with the New Sweetie Pie Stamps

    So, each month Stampin’ Up releases a new photopolymer stamp set and this month was a fun change of pace!  This was actually designed by a writer/editor at Stampin’ Up who decided to draw some designs and submit them.  I’ll admit I wasn’t sure about the style at first but I think it is a fun and fresh variation on what we see in a lot of stamps today!  Here are a couple of the samples using the new Sweetie Pie stamp set.

    The first stamp set is lots of fun different girls faces (or boys with long hair!)

    But then they came out with a coordinating Sweetie Pie Frames stamp set that you can use with the faces or on its own for some interesting flourishes.

    I was still trying to figure out how I would use the set when I saw this sample created by Lydia Fielder at Understand Blue.  I LOVE it and thought it was a brilliant idea so I wanted to share it as inspiration as well. Smile 

    Also, I just have to say her use of markers makes me itch for the release of the Stampin’ Up! Blendabilities markers!!  Guess I just try to practice right now with my blender pens.

    So what do you think?  Love the new set and style or not your thing?

    This week’s weekly deals

    Also, I’m a bit delayed in getting this posted, but wanted to make sure everyone had a chance to check out the new weekly deals this week.  Lots of fun stuff for Big Shot/Cuttlebug lovers!

    Tip – The Circles #2 die is a thick die that lets you cut out different materials including metal, fabric, sponge, cork, etc.  But you may be wondering what the heck the different sizes are… so here they are:  2 1/2″, 2″, 1 1/2″, and 1″.

    Enjoy!
