Pg. 22 of the 2024 Idea Book & Catalog

Now, what does that title mean? Well one of the new additions to this year's IB&C are a couple of pages where some card templates are shown, A Little Inspiration. A card template is great when you need a little jump off point! Here is my card--

 The stamp set is called Flying By (pg. 104, #163685, $19.00). The template I used is on the top the 6th one in, here is picture of it:

I turned it on it's side and took a little poetic license with it... and that's OK. 😀

I had a few extra pieces leftover, so I made another card:

A little easier, but just as cute!

Thank-you for coming by!

Happy Stamping, Karla 😋

It's the Little Things

Hello, welcome to my blog! This week the Sisters in Stamping are picking their favorite Bundled Set from the Mini Catalog. Here is my card--

These little Bees, I mean come on! They are just the CUTEST! My two little bees are flying together cheek to cheek with a little heart, so cute. This set bundles with a punch that punches a small heart, the bee body (which also looks like a cartoon word window) and the wings (that can be used as a heart too.)

Bee Mine Bundle #162554, $38.50

The second "little thing" is this tiny bow tied around the red card stock.

Next, we have the third "little thing" the little red heart (which comes from the punch) and fourth "little thing" those Iridescent Rhinestones (that I can't keep my hands off!)

 

I punched the wings from vellum and used my bone folder to give it a little curve. 

Well, there you go! Thank-you for coming by, hope to see you next week for some Lovely Flowers 😀

Happy Stamping! Karla 😋
