Stampin’ Up Letterpress Plates and another Sneak Peek!

December 14th, 2010

This is the very first card I’ve stamped since my surgery 2 weeks ago (except for the cupcake card I did with Eva) and I was so excited to work with fresh pinks, crisp white and Valentine goodies! 

I know, most of us are still working on Christmas projects, but since I got my Spring Mini Catalog goodies the other day, I just had to play with the new Valentine Defined stamp set! 

Pink Flamingos, people!  Woot!  I can’t show you the whole set yet, but be sure to visit here on January 4 to see the mini catalog up close and personal!  If you are one of my current customers, you will be getting your very own catalog in the mail at the end of December.  If you aren’t a customer of mine YET, and don’t have a demonstrator, let me know that you’d like one! 

Ok…so how was it done?  There are a few things going on here for this card:

Tinsel Trim – I love the Tinsel Trim in the Holiday Mini Catalog and it’s for oh, so much more than just Christmas Cards!  Hurry! You can only order this item through January 3.  Click here to view it in my Online Store.

Love Impressions Specialty Paper – Premiers in the Spring Mini Catalog on January 4!  (used it with my scallop circle punch)

Lots of Love Letterpress Plate- Stampin’ Up’s new Letterpress Plates let you create an inked debossed impression reminiscent of an old-world letterpress.  This was a new item in Stampin’ Up’s Holiday Mini Catalog.  View here.

I was going to do a video for you on it, but Shannon West from the Stampin’ Up’s Home Office did a fabulous video on it, so I let her do the work!  (Instead of craft ink, I used a Versamark Ink Pad to ink the plate.  Click here to learn about the Versamark ink pad.)

Uninked Craft Pads are available HERE.
