Another great box from the Top Note Die and Box #2 Big Shot XL Die. 

Stampin’ Up! worked with Sizzix and an XL Crease pad has been created.  You’ll love this crease pad when you are using your Big Shot with a die that has score lines.   While it doesn’t show in the catalog, it is available through me.  If you have a XL die – you need to get one of these. 

This box is the placeholder for your July events.  I think the box would look great with some sparkly confetti and summer treats.  This box was part of my summer boxing class.  We did the May basket, Beach Scene, this flag and a soon to come Sunflower for August.  If you missed it, give me a call and I can get you signed up for a class session. 

I am honored that Stampin’ Up! has chosen to publish this class for other Stampin’ Up! demos.  As you know, my friend Sandy and I created this class after I had so much fun last fall with Frankie (Frankenstein) and Frosty.  If you’ve been to my house you’ve seen them lined up on the mantle. . . stay tuned for the fall class coming in early September in which we will make a pumpkin, Frankenstein, Turkey (he’s cute!) and Rudolph (yes his nose is red – and he has glitter!)

TTFN!

Looking for a seasonal gift box for June?  Here was the second of four boxes in my Summer Boxing Class.  My friend Sandy Poehnelt and I created this box as part of a series of classes.  You missed the first one. . . (psst – several did and if there is enough interest, I’ll do it again). 

Wouldn’t this be a great pick me up with a little chapstick, lotion, sunscreen or something else fun in the box? 

Ingredients?  Top Note DIe, Box #2, Scallop Circle, Clear Circle, Boho Blossoms, Cheers to you stamp set. 

 For more reasons than one, I LOVE this frame! 

Reason #1:  Of course, my honey.  This is a great picture of us in Hawaii.  I am grateful for a wonderful husband.  He supports me in so many ways.  What a dear.  (pssst he cuts cardstock, sets up for shows, delivers, entertains my customers – sorry ladies, he’s not for rent!)

Reason #2:  I experimented with using vinyl in my Big Shot (you know I love it!).  I used the negative image from the vinyl and applied glass etching creme.  You can see it better in the picture below.  Did you know we sell raw vinyl in our catalog?  Check it out on page 192.  The creme was easy to use – if you look close, I was a little sloppy.  One shouldn’t use it for the first time on something like this!

Reason#3:  I am liking the versatility of the circle scissors plus.  All the circles in this frame were made using it.  The circle theme is carried through well with the flexibility of sizes I can create with this tool.  If you would like a private class on it – just let me know.  I’d love to show you!

Add a couple of goulish treats and you are set to really treat those special trick or treaters this October! 

Don’t forget about the great versatility the Big Shot brings to paper crafting . . .you can cut all of the dies needed for Frank in one swoosh through the big shot! 

Purchase the Big Shot from me and you’ll be able to participate in my Big Shot classes – don’t miss any tricks (or treats!),  You can purchase the Big Shot all at once and receive hostess benefits or purchase it on a lay away plan – either way it is a BIG DEAL and tons of fun! 

Check back daily for more fabulous projects!

Make this great notecard gift set – a perfect gift that you can re-create for the holidays!  You’ll love using the new Big Shot to make the ghiradelli chocolate pillow box (a perfect gift for anyone!), plus this gorgeous little box with a rosette make from our new ribbon!  Ah yes, don’t you just love when I make your gift giving easy for you?
