Thank You, Thank You!! And a giveaway.....

I made a little gift for everyone that purchased a Paper Pumpkin subscription through me last month, check them out!

I made these using Stampin' Up!'s new 2015-2017 In Colors. These five colors are a limited edition line and coordinate with Stampin' Up!'s permanent color lines. The colors are: (in order, left to right)

Watermelon Wonder, Cucumber Crush, Tip Top Taupe, Delightfully Dijon, and Mint Macaron

I think Mint Macaron and Tip Top Taupe are my favorite, in case you wanted my opinion.

Each Paper Pumpkin subscriber gets a pack of five cards, one color each from the In Color line.  One of the many perks to being a Paper Pumpkin subscriber!! (want to know more about Paper Pumpkin? Click here!)

Anyway, I used the Another Thank You stamp set to create the image on these babies.  One of the many benefits of using photopolymer stamps is that you get an opportunity to really make a stamp "your own" by simply adding a few different stamps to one block, like I did here.  It turned out pretty nice, eh?

When you order the ink pad set, you also get a packet of coordinating cardstock. As you can see in the photo above, I matched the ink color to the cardstock border.

Another brand new product that Stampin' Up! released in the June catalog is some really great envelope paper, which I HAD to get because I love my envelope punch board to death. Let me tell you all about it.

First, I can make any freaking sized envelope I need.  That alone is worth it.

But wait, there's more!  I can make boxes on the envelope punch board too.  In fact, I made some little boxes to hold the cards and protect the edges during mailing.

It's true, in June Stampin' Up! came out with a giftbox punch board, and I am sure that it is awesome, but to be able to make small gift boxes AND envelopes with one tool is really nice. I hate it when I have to purchase a craft tool that only does one thing.  It's usually a really expensive tool, too.  But this envelope punch board makes envelopes and gift boxes.......and......

What's this? A corner rounding punch? Really?  Yep!  AND finally, it comes with a scoring tool which you can also use like a bone folder to burnish folds.

That's four tools in one tool. It's pretty fantastic.  

Mmmm......did I mention the giveaway??  I am giving away this set of boxed 3x3 thank you notes and envelopes!!  All you have to do is follow my blog using the "Subscribe by Email" button on the right side of the blog.

You have until Sunday, June 28th at midnight.  I will announce the winner on Monday, June 29th.
