Global Stamping Friends Blog Hop - New Year and New Product

Welcome to the January 2024 Edition of the Global Stamping Friends Blog Hop! You'll see projects in our hop from Stampin' Up! demonstrators around the world--I'm in Colorado Springs, Colorado. (Note: I can only sell to customers in the US, so any prices mentioned are in USD)

We generally hop the first Friday of each month, and our theme for today is New Year and New Product! Today I am sharing a card using the Bee My Valentine BUNDLE from the NEW 2024 Jan-Apr Mini Catalog to make a Valentine card, along with the Sale-a-Bration Most Adored 12"x12" Specialty Designer Series Paper (which you can earn for FREE!). {you can find all Product Purchase Links below the Blog Roll near the bottom of the post}


To earn the Most Adored 12"x12" Specialty Designer Series Paper, you need to spend at least $50 on other merchandise. The Bee My Valentine BUNDLE (which includes the stamp set + the Bee Builder Punch) is $38.50, the Sweet Sorbet 1/4" Bordered Ribbon is $8.00, and the Iridescent Pearls are $7.50, so those would get you the paper!


The paper is really much richer in person. The back of each sheet is white with gold printing, so you can make it any color you want! I'll show you how that works another time, but for this card I wanted to use some patterns as they were. Not all the patterns are hearts, so you certainly aren't limited to Valentine's Day for their use. Our Sale-a-Bration Brochure promotes the Adoring Hearts Bundle with this paper, but I prefer the Bee My Valentine stamp set with the Bee Builder Punch.

Stampin' Supplies: Bee My Valentine BUNDLE (stamp set + Bee Builder Punch), FREE Sale-a-Bration Most Adored 12"x12" Specialty Designer Series Paper, Basic White Cardstock, Pool Party Cardstock & Ink Pad, Flirty Flamingo Ink Pad, Real Red Ink Pad, Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pad (and, optionally, Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker), Sweet Sorbet 1/4" Bordered Ribbon, Iridescent Pearls, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Stampin' Dimensionals, Simply Shammy (to clean photopolymer stamps), Paper Snips, Bone Folder, Paper Trimmer, Grid Paper. And don't forget some Basic White Medium Envelopes.

We Create Blog Hop - New Year, New Look!



Welcome to the JANUARY 2024 "New Year, New Look" Blog Hop!!! We generally hop on the first day of every month, and this month our theme will focus on projects with a "new look". This could be any of the MANY NEW PRODUCTS Stampin' Up! will be debuting on JANUARY 4TH, or already available product with a new look (out of the box use, new technique, etc.). My projects today feature NEW products from the upcoming Bee Mine Suite Collection.
{scroll to the bottom of this post for ALL product purchase links}


The inspiration for these projects came from a demonstrator-exclusive virtual event in November, called OnStage@Home. Prior to this event, registered demonstrators were able to preorder the Bee Mine Suite Collection, so we could have the supplies to use for a Craft Along portion of the event. The cards in the pictures below were made according to the instructions - as you can see, mine are a little different.



Lol, let's play a game called "Can You Spot the Differences?" in the comments section!

Stampin' Supplies: {Red = Available for Order Jan 4th} Bee My Valentine Stamp Set and Bee Builder Punch (available as a Bundle at a 10% Discount), Basic White Cardstock, Daffodil Delight Cardstock and Ink Pad, Pool Party Cardstock and Ink Pad, Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pad, Bee Mine 12"x12" Designer Series Paper, Adhesive-Backed Hearts & Flowers, Sweet Sorbet 1/4" Bordered Ribbon, Clear Wink of Stella (on the wings), Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Stampin' Dimensionals, Simply Shammy (to clean photopolymer stamps), Paper Snips, Bone Folder, Paper Trimmer, Grid Paper.
