April fools......

.....a day late, ha!  Hi stampers!  I found something I had made with the summer smooches suite!  I totally forgot I had made this cute little purse using the petite purse die.  And I forgot to mention yesterday that this die is also part of the pre-order!  It's SOOOO cute!  I think this will make a cute little Easter favor this weekend!

Stampin' Supplies:
Paper:  Lucky limeade, daffodil delight, summer smooches DSP
Accessories:  Petite purse die, triple blossom punch, basic rhinestones, white gel pen, daffodil delight seam binding

I used a bit of the ribbon because scarves are all the rage on purses now, aren't they?  :-)  The seam binding is also part of the pre-order and it's SOOOO PRETTY!  And I have to say that my favorite thing to do with the little purse is faux stitching with the gel pen.  That tiny little detail adds so much pizazz to the purse!!!

Now I really do have to go come up with more ideas because this is the only one I had laying around:-)

Happy stamping!

Petite Purse - Sneak Peek

Hi stampers!  I have something super exciting today!  A sneak peek from the NEW catalog that will come out in June!!!!!  Demos got to order this suite on March 1 and YOU can order it April 1!!!  How fun!  And I have to say it's SUPER cute stuff (as always).  It's called the summer smooches collection and has a stamp set, a DSP and designer series fabric, some new seam binding, brads (fabric covered no less), and a stencil!  Now, the stencil and the brads are limited time only and won't be in the new catalog (so make sure you get yours the month of April, it's your only chance) but everything else will be back June 1.

Now, don't forget the new catalog is coming out a month early this year.  June instead of July!!!

So, the die in this suite is SOOOO cute!  I just knew I HAD to have it after I saw it!  I have a little 3 year old BFF who is going to LOVE getting little treats in it since she has a total purse fetish!  What girl doesn't like purses????  It's called the petite purse die and check out the cuteness:

Stampin' Supplies:
Stamps:  It's your day
Paper:  Pool party, calypso coral, very vanilla, everyday enchantment DSP (SAB)
Ink:  calypso coral
Accessories:  Petite purse die, itty bitty punch pack, basic pearls, white gel pen

Isn't it just the ca-yoooo-test thing ev-ah????  And the best news is that it's SUPER easy to assemble and just takes two tiny pieces of sticky strip.  And the handle is part of the die as well!  I used a couple of dots of the tombow liquid glue to attach it.  And then all I did was cut a second flap out of my DSP and glued it on to make it a little more fun.  The flap has a little tab that tucks into the purse and keeps it closed.  I plan on making a LOT more little purses and inviting my little BFF over to make some of her own! 

I just can't get over how stinking cute this thing is!!!!  It would be great for little Easter treats, no?   And don't mind the Jimmy Johns cup in the background:-)  We spent a lot of time with my cousin's new little baby the night my goodies came so we picked up a late dinner:-)  And then I took this pic on my iPhone to send to my little BFF's mommy so I really wasn't concerned about my background....but my phone takes such good pictures I figured I should just use the picture I had:-)

Happy stamping!
