Happy Birthday Card - Sunshine Sayings

We recently held a Big Shot class locally.  I can hardly do a card without using the Big Shot, and when my customers and friends invest in one, I want to make sure they are comfortable using it!!

My downline, Char, joined me in putting it on and some of her customers came too - we had a great night - everyone brought their Big Shots and we cut all the different types of dies Stampin' Up sells.

We shared a wonderful printout that will help in remembering the "sandwiches"

Click here for YOUR copy, print it out and keep it handy!!

Here's the darling little pumpkin treat holder Char made as a make 'n take

and then we did this card

Really love how it turned out! A great layout for any designer series paper and colors!!

Thinking about Halloween? Here's a great card!

Definitely not too early to get started on those cute Halloween cards - here's one I just made and I think it's SO cute.  LOVE the brooms.  And can you see the Black Glimmer hat?  SO cute

Think this turned out SO darling!

Can you pick out something brand new in the 2015 Holiday Catalog?  Well.....there are LOTS of things, but see the curvy corners on the Basic Black and Whisper White pieces?   A brand new punch called

Curvy Corner Trio Punch

Three punches in ONE!  There is the curvy corner AND the beautiful

three tears corner and then a ribbon slide!  What a bargain!!  $26 for three punches!

I have to admit there is SO much in the 2015 Holiday Catalog that I completely missed this punch until my 3rd order!  I kept seeing these great corners punched and couldn't figure out where they were coming from!!  Duh!!

Another fantastic new product is the Fine-Tip Glue Pen - perfect for attaching the Spider Web Doilies.  

This glue dries fast and has a very fine applicator.  Wonderful for attaching small paper cutouts, glitter, small embellishments!!  I find I'm reaching for it often!!

I also used it to adhere the Tangelo Twist piece to the hat!!
