New Product Coming Soon....

 One of the perks of being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator is getting early access to  new products before they are released to our customers.

The Nests of Winter Suite Collection, which was used to make the card on this post, is one of the product suites that will be available starting September 4, 2024 with the launch of the September-December 2024 Mini Catalog.

The Nests of Winter Suite Collection includes the Wintery Tree Tops stamp set, the Wintery Tree Tops dies, Nests of Winter 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper, Natural Tones Linen Thread, Earth Tones Shimmer Gems and the Birch Wood 3D Embossing Folder.

This card starts with a Gray Granite cardstock card base, followed by a Basic Black panel and a Nests of Winter Designer Series Paper (DSP) top panel.

The circle is from the Spotlight on Nature dies and has been cut out using Basic White and Basic Black cardstock.

The birds are from the Nests of Winter DSP and have been cut out using the Wintery Tree Tops dies.  Wink of Stella was added to the berries.

The sentiment is from the Greetings of the Season stamp set and has been stamped in Cherry Cobbler ink and then heat embossed using Clear Embossing Powder.
Here's a peek at the inside of the card.

Sneak Peek at the Nests of Winter Suite Collection

 One of the major perks of being a demonstrator is getting to attend Stampin' Up! events that allow us to see and create with new products before customers have access to them.

These events are called Creativity Now and are held virtually.  During these events lots of product sneak peeks are shared from the next upcoming catalog.  The event I recently attended showcased product sneak peeks from the new September-December 2024 Mini Catalog.

During these events techniques and training are shared, as well as inspiration of ways to use the new products, as you craft together with fellow demonstrators from all over the world.

The Nests of Winter Suite Collection was highlighted in this Creativity Now event.  This suite includes the Wintery Tree Tops stamp set, the Wintery Tree Tops dies, Nests of Winter 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper, Natural Tones Linen Thread, Earth Tones Shimmer Gems and the Birch Wood 3D Embossing Folder.

Below are the beautiful cards and gift card holder featuring the Winter Suite Collection that were made during the Creativity Now virtual event. The Winter Suite Collection will be available to customers beginning September 2024.

The bird and foliage were colored using Watercolor Pencils.  The die-cut top panel is one of the dies from the Wintery Tree Tops dies.

The birds and foliage on this card were also colored using Watercolor Pencils.  The foliage in the background was made by using the negative part of the top panel from the first card featured above and a Blending Brush.  This was one of the fun techniques shown during the Creativity Now virtual session.
Stampin' Blends and Color Lifter were used to color this card. Flat Adhesive Backed Pearls that were colored with the Bronze Stampin' Blends were added 
for accent.
Scalloped Gift Card Boxes were used to make this project along with the Pearlized Enamel Effects Basics.

Christmas in July Blog Hop

Welcome to the Team Stamp It Groups Christmas in July Blog Hop! 

Whether you hopped onto my blog from one of my teammates or started with my blog, I'm awfully glad you "hopped" by.
The One Horse Open Sleigh Suite Collection was used to make this card.  

The One Horse Open Sleigh Suite is an online exclusive and is available in my online store.

This card starts with a Basic White cardstock 12" x 6" card base that was 
scored at 6" to make a 6" x 6" card.

The next panel is Petal Pink cardstock, followed by a Boho Blue cardstock panel.

The top panel is one of the sheets from the One Horse Open Sleigh 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper (DSP).

The "snow" was colored over using a Wink of Stella Glitter Brush to make 
the snow glisten.

  The sleigh and horse were stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink onto Basic White cardstock and then cut out using the coordinating Horse and Sleigh die.  The sleigh was colored using Cherry Cobbler and Copper Clay Stampin' Blends.

The sleigh runners were made using Smoky Slate and Silver Foil cardstock along with the sleigh runner die from the Horse and Sleigh dies.  After the runners were cut out, the Smoky Slate runner was adhered slightly offset behind the Silver Foil runner.  This left a little bit of the Smoky Slate runner sticking out at the front, which was trimmed off to be even with the Silver Foil runner.  The runner was then adhered onto the sleigh.

The people in the sleigh were colored with SU100 for the skin, Pretty Peacock, Wild Wheat and Blueberry Bushel Stampin' Blends.

The horse was colored using Pecan Pie, Cherry Cobbler and Basic Black Stampin' Blends.

The horse and sleigh were adhered onto the card front using 
Stampin' Dimensionals. Snowflakes from the Adhesive-Backed Snowflake Assortment were adhered randomly to the card front.
The sentiment on the inside of the card is from the Horse and Sleigh stamp set and has been stamped in Boho Blue ink.

The trees and bunny are also from the Horse and Sleigh stamp set.  The trees have been stamped in Pebbled Path ink.  The middle tree was stamped off one time before it was stamped onto the inside of the card.  

The bunny was stamped in Smoky Slate ink and then colored with Smoky Slate Stampin' Blends.  Wink of Stella was colored all over the three trees and along the "ground" under the trees and bunny to give it a glistening, snowy look.

When this card was made the One Horse Open Sleigh Suite was available in my online store. The products in the online store do not have an end date for their sales period! Some products will be reordered when inventory is low, and others will only be available while supplies last.
