edgelits | The Paper and Stamp Addict

Hi all,

I had my catalogue launch on Saturday for the new Stampin’ Up! 2012 – 2013 Catalogue this weekend and it was a great success!! The girls had a great time and everyone walked away with a prize! They also got a copy of the new Catalogue and the Seasonal Catalogue. Yes, there are two catalogues coming out at once!! So exciting!!! The Seasonal catty is to die for. So many amazing stamps and accessories. Fortunately it goes until the end of January, so I should hopefully be able to get it all!! (But don’t tell my husband!)

This week, I am going to share with you a few of the cards that I made to display at the launch and also what we made.

Here are a couple made with Betsy’s Blossom Stamp set. It is a cute set with a little bird just asking to be cut out. This first card was cased here, from Ladybug Designs. I’ve changed it to the new In-colour, Midnight Muse. I love the new Bitty Banners Framelits as I am hopeless at cutting even ends on a banner. I get one end just nice and the other is not.

Stamps: Betsy’s Blossom, Loving Thoughts

Ink: Midnight Muse, Wild Wasabi

Paper: Midnight Muse, Wild Wasabi, Whisper White

I found the next card on Pinterest here. There are so many lovely ideas there. You can spend more time just looking than actually making!! This card uses the new Oval Accent Bigz die which is just lovely. I love all the new dies that are coming out!!

Last weekend we had stamp club, so I thought I would share our cards with you. I focused on some of the new stamp sets and fabulous new tools available in the latest Autumn Winter mini catalogue.

This first one focuses on the Adorning Accents edgelits and the matching embossing folder, including the co-ordinating stamp set, Bordering on Romance. Once you get the hang of the edgelits, they are very easy to use and look absolutely fabulous!! I did case this one but I can’t find where.

Stamps: Bordering on Romance, Party Time

Ink: Blushing Bride, Rose Red, Staz on Black, Pear Pizzazz

Paper: Blushing Bride, Pear Pizzazz, Whisper White

Accessories: Adorning Accents Edgelits, Big Shot, Adorning Accents Embossing folder, Basic Pearls, blender pens, organza white ribbon

The next card is cased from here. I used it as my inspiration but I used different colours and different stamps. I made the rosette using the new Simply Scored which is great. It makes making rosette’s so easy!!

Stamp Sets: Word Play

Ink: Versamark

Paper: Beau Chateau DSP, Soft Suede, Pink Pirouette, Marina Mist

Accessories: Lace Ribbon Border punch, 1 3/4″ scallop circle punch, 1 1/4″ circle punch, Scallop Circle #2 die, Very Vanilla Seam binding ribbon, subtles buttons.

I had some issues with the single photo that I took, so the next card is in a group of three. I couldn’t decide on which colour combination to go with, so I had a couple of attempts. I went with the card in the middle, using the gorgeous new Twitterpated DSP. Love it!! I also used the new Tea Shoppe stamp set which is so cute! I did case this card but again, can’t find the link!!

Stamp Set: Tea Shoppe

Ink: Riding Hood Red, Pear Pizzazz, Blushing Bride, Baja Breeze

Paper: Riding Hood Red, Baja Breeze, Whisper White, Twitterpated DSP

Accessories: Pear Pizzazz pleated satin ribbon, Adorning Accents edgelits, 1 1/4″ square punch.
