I’m excited about the upcoming promotion we have starting on Sept. 1 – Perfect Partners. We are releasing six new sets of dies that coordinate with stamp sets from our Annual and July- December Mini Catalog. One of my favorites from these dies are the Playful Piggy Dies – they coordinate with the adorable This Birthday Piggy Stamp Set. You can purchase the stamp set and dies in a bundle and save 10%. You can purchase the dies alone if you already own the stamp set!
For my Facebook Live yesterday, i created two cards with this bundle pf products. Watch the video below to see how I made these cards.

I wanted to show the versatility of the dies – the wagon alone is just so cute – you can fill it with flowers, like I did – or pumpkins, fall leaves etc – anything goes !!!

I used the Fun Flower Resin shapes for my embellishments – they compliment the Brights Stack DSP that I used – in this case, I used a piece of Pacific Point DSP, along with a card base of Pacific Point.

This card is always a great color combination – Red, Black and White. Watch the recording to see the trick I did for cutting the pig’s tail and having it pop through the wagon – too cute, right? The Black and White Polka Dot DSP is from the Black & White Designs 12 / 12 Paper Pack. It adds to the whimsy of this card.

This Piggy is just so cute – I added some color with Petal Pink blends and Basic Black blends – the Basic Black blends were used to add some black spots.

I have released a card class featuring this bundle! I am offering an Early Bird Special – that ends tomorrow – just in case these piggy dies “fly” out of the SU Warehouse – I just think they will be very, very popular and want to be sure that those that want this class can get the dies!

For my Facebook Live this week, I created two whimsical cards featuring the Kindest Gnomes bundle. Gnomes are so popular recently and they are just plain cute! Like I said in my Live I never really thought about girl gnomes – I normally think of a Gnome as a bearded gent – but in this bundle there are girls gnomes too – and they are just as sweet as the gents!
Watch the video below to see how I made these cards. In the video you will be able to see the measurements used for the cards.

The first card uses the dies that are used to create a gnome – no stamping at all – just die cut and you will end up with this cute little fella! The dies have detail added – texture to the beard and stitching around the hat and shoes – love the extra detail! This card is a fun fold – it opens up from the top on a shorter panel.
I used Poppy Parade ink for this card – I pulled the color from the cute mushroom Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the Storybook Gnomes DSP Pack.

The next card I made uses the Whimsical Woodland embossing folder – I think it is a perfect compliment to the gnomes. The mushroom and gnome were cropped right out of the Designer Series Paper – I LOVE when we can do that – it makes for creating a great card really quickly! There are two sheets in the DSP pack of mushrooms and gnomes – so you can make a lot of cards just by cropping the DSP!

This is also a fun fold – I cut a 1 inch strip off of the front panel of the card so that the inside panel would show. This card went together quickly – and I embellished with the Fine Sparkle Adhesive Backed Gems. I thought it would be fun to dress up the gnome’s hat – so added a big loopy bow made from White Baker’s Twine.

Here is the same card layout – with a different color palette – Poppy Parade card base and the mushroom DSP. Which is your favorite?


I love bringing you my Bee Boxes each month and know that you will love this month’s version!
