Third Thursdays Blog Hop - Retiring/Sneak Peek (Mix & Match)

Welcome once again to our Third Thursdays Blog Hop! This month our theme for the hop is Retiring/Sneak Peek Mix & Match! Our posts will feature projects with product that is RETIRING from Stampin' Up! inventory June 2nd, AND/OR Sneak Peek products that will debut June 3rd!.
{you'll find Product Purchase Links for current items I've used, below the Blog Roll}

I chose to feature the 2020-2022 In Colors with my Sneak Peek projects. These upcoming NEW colors are: Magenta Madness, Bumblebee, Misty Moonlight, Cinnamon Cider, and Just Jade. I'm pretty sure someone used a time machine to take a peek in my closet during my high school years, to pick the retro "jewel" tones! Lol.

Since I have featured products you cannot yet purchase, I just wanted to point out that you CAN still purchase RETIRING 2018-2020 In Color products! You'll find all the coordinating products that are still available, in My Online Store by clicking the banner below:

Global Stamping Friends Blog Hop - Stitched

Welcome to the May 2020 Edition of the Global Stamping Friends Blog Hop! You'll see projects from around the world--but I'm in Colorado Springs, Colorado. (Note: I can only sell to customers in the US, so any prices are in USD)

We generally hop the first Friday of each month, and our theme for today is Stitched! The idea is to show a "stitching" on a stamp set, technique, project, etc. My project today features images from the NEW Covid-19 Product Giveback PDF!
{you'll find all Product Purchase Links below the Blog Roll near the bottom of the post!}

Stampin' Up!'s Covid-19 Product Giveback PDF is a set of images, some in black/white, some in color, which you can print out and use to make quarantine related cards and projects. ALL proceeds from the sales will go to either the World Health Organization, or the United Way Worldwide, or a split between both. You get to pick how you want your product proceeds to support those causes during the checkout process.

The Magnolia Lane Ribbon Combo Pack is RETIRING, and on SALE right now, and this linen ribbon from the pack makes a super cute toilet roll! And, I have to come clean - lol, get it? - but I resized some of the images. I wanted the saying to fit in the pretty Stitched Labels Dies, which are also RETIRING and on SALE right now, so I reduced the size of the images. You can do this, too, just make sure the image is on your screen at 100% in the document, then use the Snapshot Tool in Adobe Reader to copy the image you want, and then paste it into whatever photo/image editing tool you use.

And last, but not least, the RETIRING Tufted 3D Embossing Folder was used on the Balmy Blue Cardstock in the background. It's not on sale, but this is one of my favorite embossing folders, EVER. So versatile, it works with cutesy and bold images, as well as fine line and elegant images. And for the background on a toilet paper card??? Ya gotta have it.

Below are some pictures to give you an idea of the images, and some more projects ideas for the images. PLUS, the first two pages of the downloads are full of information on coordinating stamp sets, punches, dies, AND colors so you'll have plenty of inspiration! Be sure to check the #sharesunshine hashtag on social media to find even more ideas, and to share your own ideas!
