Facebook Live - Friday, April 20

Here's the Facebook Live Video I did yesterday...

I broadcast live every Friday at 11:30am EST on the Gathering Inkspiration Stamp Studio Facebook Group.

If you can't catch it live, I'll upload the recording here and on Youtube. And... if you're not already a member of the Gathering Inkspiration Stamp Studio Facebook Group, pop on over and ask to become a member! New people are always welcome!

This week, I demo'd a couple of fun masculine projects featuring the (retiring, oh no!) True Gentleman Suite of products, gave you some info on Stampin' Up's Color Revamp and drew for the winner of the Berry Burst Metallic Edge Ribbon and the Bubble Over Stamp Set !!

Here are the projects I demo'd.....

The first project is a great gift card holder. There's a pocket inside to hold a note and maybe a gift card or lottery tickets :).

This second project is called a "2, 4, 6, 8 box".....

Do you like these projects?? I sure do - I LOVE making fun treats like these!!

As I mentioned in my Facebook Live video, you can change the look of these projects to fit any occasion. I think the little box would make a great party favor at a wedding or baby shower. Just change up the colors, designer series paper and sentiment to fit your occasion!

DON'T FORGET... place a minimum $30 online order (make sure to use host code NEW9DNVM) by midnight on Wednesday, April 25 - you'll receive the projects I demo'd today, and you get your name in the drawing to win the Let the Good Times Roll Stamp Set.

Myths & Magic Magical Day

Isn't this just the cutest little knight?? This designer series paper has so many fun images and designs. The gals at the Simple, Beautiful Card Class just loved this card :). I hope you do, too!

And.... don't forget to order any of the items you see marked below as "retiring" as soon as you can! Stamp sets are available until May 25; all other items are only available while supplies last.

You can see all of the remaining products still available on the Last Chance Lists here!!

Ok, on to our card... :)

We start our card with a Dapper Denim card base, then added a piece of the Myths & Magic Specialty Designer Series Paper. Those little trees are so cute, don't you think?? I heard one gal at class even say she didn't want to cover them up! I guess it's a good thing we used a large piece of this DSP then!

We also added a strip of Basic Gray card stock, layered with another piece of Myths & Magic Specialty Designer Series Paper, to the middle of our card.

Next, we stamped "Hope Your Day is Magical" from the Magical Day Stamp Set in Dapper Denim ink, then die-cut it with one of the ovals from the Layering Oval Framelits. We layered the sentiment on top of a Basic Gray scallop oval also die-cut from the Layering Oval Framelits.

Finally, we punched one of those cute knights right from our Myths & Magic Specialty Designer Series Paper with our 2" Circle Punch and then layered him on top of a Basic Gray scallop circle die-cut with the Layering Circle Framelits.
