I have a lot of Designer Series Paper as I am sure you know. I use it on almost all of my cards. This time of year I begin to panic that I have too much with the Annual Catalog winding down. I had the idea of going through the papers and doing a card using each of the packages. Silly me, that really isn’t going to put a dent in it!!! 🙂
I love the From My Heart Specialty Designer Series Paper. So it was one of the first packages I picked up. At first you may think it is only for romance or valentine. I do not really think so. It is for any card that comes from the heart.
I saw the sentiment in the Special Someone stamp set and just knew it was a perfect one for our current situation. I think we all need some healing, even if we have not been sick. The Special Someone stamp set has a matching set of dies that came out after the stamp set. I really hope they carry over to the next Annual Catalog. These critters are so adorable.
I stamped the squirrel and then masked the bottom section of the balloon. It was too long for the layer I was planning. I then used the Flirty Flamingo Stampin’ Write Marker to make the little loop through his hand. The balloon is stamped and then cut out for a bit of depth.
The sentiment is in two pieces as I have them. I just cut them out with the Classic Label Punch and staggered them in the corner. You can see the left end is the normal Classic Label punched end. The right side I put back into the end of the punch to get the flag look.
The two different DSP are both from the From My Heart DSP. I love using companion pieces to compliment each other.
It may not seem so, but the Mini Catalog and the Annual Catalog are both coming to an end. June is not too far away. The Retiring List should be out around the first of the month. If there are any products from either catalog still on your wish list, now is the time to order. Especially the outgoing In Colors, they tend to go quickly.
I know there are products that are on the Not Orderable List due to the shipping slow down from China. I will let you know as soon as I do when items are available again.
