New Cuttlebug Folders!!

Woo-hoo – my new Cuttlebug things from CropStop came yesterday! I only ordered three sets – “Forever Friends” folder and die combo, “Just My Type” borders and “With Love” borders.

After being camping all weekend with friends (and having a wonderful time) and getting to spend almost a whole day (and “sleepover!”) with a great friend (and having another wonderful time), I finally got to spend some time playing with my new things – and I had a wonderful time! LOL! I did get a card made yesterday, but I didn’t deem it “blog-worthy.”

So, without further ado, here is today’s card. I cut the textured green paper to 5 3/8 by 4 1/8 inches. I cut the white cardstock to 5 ¼ by 4 inches. The first thing I did was to emboss the three daisies from “With Love” on the left side. Then I used the buttons from “Just My Type” to emboss a strip slightly diagonally (accidental, but I like it) across the lower part of the card. I also used my Scor-Pal to score lines on both side of the buttons. I used some little yellow buttons (that I’ve had since I started stamping) for the daisy centers. The “Hi” is cut with the die from “Forever Friends.” That’s it, and wow, there is no stamping on this card!!

Thanks for looking, and I hope you’ll come back and visit again soon!

"Product Review" - Storage Sleeves - and a Special Offer!!

How about a “Product Review” today, for something different.

I ordered some “Storage Sleeves” from CropStop on Saturday night, and they arrived today. Awfully quick, I would say! I love my things to be organized, and they were, but it was kind of a pain to flip through a stack of Cuttlebug folders or dies. This is so much better! I got sleeves to fit my large CB folders, my CB dies, my Sizzlits, and my smaller CB folders. I even got sleeves to store my cards in! I have been looking for sleeves to store my cards in for a long time. Now I can store all of my dies and folders in one binder and store it upright on my shelves – very cool. (At least I can do that until I get too many more, then I’ll have to switch to TWO binders! LOL!) And I can have all of my cards that are available for sale in one binder, protected and easy to flip through, with another binder for cards that I have received.

Here are a few pictures of what I chose to order. She has many other storage sleeves, too, and you can get zippered binders.

*** ATTENTION *** I just got an email from Haylie Jo of CropStop. How's this for special? If you order from CropStop, just put "MyStampingAddiction" in the Coupon Code section, and you'll receive a 10% discount on any order over $15!! I guess that's telling her "Lynette sent you." Pretty cool! PS - she carries MANY other things, including Cuttlebug folders and dies, Nestabilities ... the list goes on. Check it out! (The NEW Cuttlebug items will be in VERY soon, and are available for pre-order.) One more thing - CropStop offers FREE SHIPPING on all dies and folders and several other things!!

Thanks for looking, and I hope you’ll come back and visit again soon!
