Let’s Get Hopping Round 27-New Beginnings

Hey Y'all!

I'm so glad you have joined us for our first hop of the New Year! Our theme this month is very fitting, "New Beginnings." If you have been hopping from the beginning, you arrived here from the oh so talented Tanya Rees, her projects are always so lovely! There are so many categories that fall under "New Beginnings"...weddings, babies, a new job, a retirement even, a new year....I chose to make a baby card using my top favorite bundle (this week, anyway!) from the brand new 2020 Mini Catalog, the So Sentimental Bundle.

It is such a versatile set, with beautiful sentiments for many occasions. And the coordinating Stitched So Sweetly Dies....absolutely scrumptious!

I started with a Thick Whisper White card base, and added a layer of the Shimmery White cardstock. I did a watercolor wash in Pool Party, then added a strip of DSP from a pack of DSP available for purchase in February for customers (available for demonstrators now, great reason to join, just sayin'!) It's the Pleased As Punch DSP, and it along with other products will be available February 3. The other heart was punched from the Birthday Bonanza DSP. The baker's twine and sequins are from one of the FREE Saleabration selections during Saleabration with a qualifying purchase(while supplies last, so get them quick!)

I CASE'd the idea for the inside of the card from fellow demonstrator Wendy Crandford. I did some partial die cutting with another one of the dies to make this clever gift card holder. That was the trickiest part of the card. If you try this, I encourage you to use a scrap piece of paper to practice. To do the Partial Die Cutting technique, place your top cutting pad only on the portion of the die you want to cut.

Now it's time to hop over to the fabulous Alicia Yap, I know you will love her project!

Here is the flyer for those new products available for customers February 3.
