There are lots of things in the stamping world I am looking forward to in 2012.
1. Woo Hoo…The Occasions Mini goes live today! It contains such fun things!! I am enjoying the Edgelits and Framelits. I have made a couple of projects with them. One will be posted on My Newsletter Project Pages within the next couple of days. This is a FREE service I offer for those who sign up. There is always a card and an item made with a template (which I include). Sometimes there is a technique or new way to use something. This month there will be a printable sheet for the Big Shot Sandwiches suggested in the Stampin’ Up catalogs and my notes to help you get it right the first time!
2. I am going to try more new techniques and share my experiments with you.
3. I will also be offering a NEW Online Service starting around the middle of the January. I will start giving you some hints as I get closer to the Grand Opening!
Stampin’ Up! is offering a FREE digital download called “Day in the Life” which can be used with My Digital Studio or most other digital programs like PhotoShop. It lasts until January 10th. You will need to fill in your name and answer 5 simple fill-in-the-dot questions. Click HERE to start the survey.
Today is also my oldest son’s birthday. Here is the card I made for him. It is different than my normal color schemes and style. I hope you like it. Let me know how you like it by adding your comment at the bottom of this post. I will be choosing from those who comment to give Blog Candy during the months of February and March.
