Category: 2023 JANUARY – APRIL MINI CATALOGUE

For the next few weeks I am going to share a couple of projects using new products from the 2023 January – April Mini Catalogue and how to earn FREE products from the 2023 Sale-a-bration Brochure.

Today I have a second example using the DAINTY DELIGHT BUNDLE and FREE Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper.

I decided to make a set of four cards to go into a Kraft Gift Box.

I used one the DSP sheets that has 6 of oval shaped wreaths you can see above. All 6 were cut and I used one for the front of the box and four more for card fronts.

The KRAFT GIFT BOXES are a perfect way to quickly assemble a gift holder for someone special.

Before attaching the DSP panel to the front of the gift box, I attached a length of Natural Finish 7/8″ Ribbon. Once the panel was attached I could tie a big bow to ensure the set of cards stayed inside the gift box.

I used Crushed Curry A4 cardstock for the card bases. Then I cut 5 embossed oval frames using one of the Fabulous Frames Dies. Mini dimensionals were placed behind the frames and then postioned within the wreath.

Starry Night was the ink colour I chose to use to stamp the sentiments onto precut ovals. The sentiment, on the front of the box, is from the HAPPY LABELS STAMP SET.

The small grass and flowal image was stamped on the card insert and envelope front.

The fianl touch was to add some Iridescent Pearls Basic Jewels.

Tomorrow I will have another bundle to share with you.

Until then, happy stamping.

We had a delightful day yesterday, enjoying a picnic in New Farm Park our our daughter and her partner’s family. There were three of his family visiting from Glasgow.

Our picnic spot was close the river and in front of the two large trees toward the centre left of this photo.

Today I want to share the DAINTY DELIGHT BUNDLE with you. It’s in the 2023 January – April Mini Catalogue. They can be found on p55.

There are 9 cling stamps in the set with four sentiments for different occasions. To coordinate with the stamped images, there are 16 dies and they all be used with the Mini Cut and Emboss Machine.

During January and February you can earn free products from the Sale-a-bration Brochure. There is a coordinating pack of 12″x 12″ Designer Series Paper called Dainty Flowers (160834). This paper can be ordered with a qualifying $90 order – the Dainty Delight Bundle (160675) is $96.25 (Australia).

For this card, I cut an A4 sheet of Fresh Freesia in half lengthwise and folded it in half.

I cut 5 strips from the DSP to ensure the pattern was maintained. The strips were cut to width in this order – 3/4″, 1/2″, 3/4″, 1/2″ and 3/4″. Then I used the new HAPPY LABELS PICK A PUNCH to create the scalloped ends.

After finding the centre point on the card front, I adhered the DSP strips and worked to create even spacing.

The FABULOUS FRAMES DIES were used to create the Old Olive embossed oval frame.

Stampin’ Write Markers were used to colour bouquet – Fresh Freesia, Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive.

I used the frame to create a highlighted area for the stamped, coloured and die cut flowers. Mini Dimensionals were used to secure the frame and flowers to the card front.

The sentiment was stamped using the Rich Razzleberry Classic Stampin’ Pad.

The bow was made using two lengths of ribbon that were cut in half. I used the Fresh Freesia Open Weave Ribbon and Gold Satin Edged Ribbon to create a small bow.

I added some of the new FLAT ADHESIVE-BACKED PEARLS and attached stirps of the FREE DSP to the card insert and envelope.

Adding strips of DSP is a great way to use up those leftover pieces.

I used the DAINTY DELIGHT BUNDLE for this project and its purchase price allowed me to order the DAINTY FLOWERS DESIGNER SERIES PAPER for FREE.

You can order products from the new Mini Catalogue from January 5. From that date, I will be able to include images of all the new products in a shopping section at the end of my posts.

Until then, happy stamping.
