Happy Birthday

Good morning!  It’s Monday after Thanksgiving – which means….it’s Cyber Monday!

Which has only been a thing for a minute.  Like since 2005!  Guess we like our Online Shopping, huh?  I know I do – even in non-COVID years!  I used to like going to the Mall but now?  Pretty much rather clean house.

Wait.  No…Not that.  The dentist.  I’d rather go to the dentist than the mall.

OR clean the house!

Now – the good news is, darned near everything I ever show you on this blog can be yours – without you ever having to leave the comfort of your pj’s and barcalounger.  😉  For example…be sure you check the Stamp-N-Storage Holiday Special and CYBER MONDAY Deals – it ends TODAY!  With 15% off Sitewide, Free Shipping on orders over $100, free magnets – it’s a great time to outfit your craft area!!

Today’s goodies are a sneak peek of some things you’ll be able to get in January (or…tomorrow – more on that later!) in the January – June 2021 Mini Catalog.  The Garden Wishes stamp set, Dandy Garden 6″ x 6″ DSP and Dandy Garden Memories & More Card Pack are part of the Dandy Garden Suite.  Take a look-see:

The layout for this is from the Freshly Made Sketches challenge this week!

And it seems to fit in the list of Occasions on this week’s Watercooler Wednesday Challenge.

I started with some Misty Moonlight paper from the Dandy Garden 6″ x 6″ DSP that I matted on Bumble Bee for the card front.

Then I stamped the large image from Garden Wishes in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.  When it was dry, I colored the flowers with my Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blend and the leaves with the Mossy Meadow Blends Combo.  Then I cut it out with a Stitched Rectangle Die and adhered it to the card front with Liquid Glue.

I used a smaller Stitched Rectangle Die to cut another piece of Whisper White.  Using one of the folders in the Greenery Embossing Folders pack, I embossed the little rectangle.  Then I popped it onto the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The sentiment is a sticker from the Dandy Garden Memories & More Card Pack – simply adhered right to the panel.

I took one of the little bee stickers from the pack and popped it onto the panel with a Stampin’ Dimensional (cut in half).

I tied a little bow from new Mossy Meadow 3/16″ Braided Linen Trim and adhered it with a Glue Dot – and that was it for the card front.

On the inside, I stamped a second image from Garden Wishes in Tuxedo Black on Whisper White.  I colored the center with the Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blend and Mossy Meadow Blends Combo.  Then I adhered another Dandy Garden Memories & More Card Pack sentiment over top.  Since it seemed like the thing to do, I stamped the bee in Tuxedo Black and colored it with the Dark Daffodil Blend.

I used Liquid Glue to adhere the panel to a Bumble Bee mat and into my Misty Moonlight card base, popped the card front on with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the card was done!

My Whisper White Medium Envelope got the Garden Wishes dandelion and bee on the front…

…and some more of the Dandy Garden 6″ x 6″ DSP on the envelope flap.

Et Voila!  I am so in love with this new Garden Wishes set – and the gorgoues Dandy Garden 6″ x 6″ DSP!

I hope you like!

If you want to recreate this card – all the Stampin’ Up! products you need are listed down below along with the card cuts!

Now – I mentioned that you’ll be able to get this whole suite on 5 Jan.  BUT – I also told you that you could get it TOMORROW!

How?  Well – starting tomorrow – all these goodies will be available to demonstrators.  And – if you join Stampin’ Up! tomorrow then YOU could fill your Starter kit with new goodies and then turn right around and buy as many more of the pre-order list as you like with a 20% discount!

And – STILL no commitment ever!  Nada.  Zilch.  Zero.

Get more deets right here – or…give me a shout – I’ll be more than happy to chat.  I’d love to have you join my team – whether you want the discount or…are looking for a side gig to bring in a little extra cash (like…enough to pay for you crafty habit?).

Hope to hear from you soon!

Sunday dawned….cloudy and dreary.

Not too cold but…generally yucky.

So – Finn did what most of us WISH we could do on a rainy and dreary day…

Only problem is the stinkin’ paparazzi.  How the heck is a guy supposed to get ANY rest with someone taking his picture every 5 minutes?!?

He tried to give me the stink-eye but…it’s not very effective when your down-ear is flopped up and you look all sweet and cuddly!
