Hi there! Make sure you scroll down to see yesterday’s post (AND VIDEO!) as I posted it pretty late at night. I hope you enjoy today’s video – a little comparison between Stampin’ Up!’s New and Improved Heat Tool vs. the old one, as well as a quick and easy tutorial on the very basics of heat embossing! Love that cute, new gingerbread man! Check it out!!! Head on over to my YouTube channel by clicking the YouTube logo in the right sidebar and subscribe so you don’t miss out on a single video!
Today I have a video with a fun technique that you can use to accent any project. It uses Stampin’ Up!’s Scallop Edge Border Punch (#119882) to make an awesome, whimsical, little ric rac accent! I will show picture of the card in the video tomorrow.
As I mention in the video use a 1″ width strip with the old style (black) body and 5/8″ width strip with the new style (gray) body. Try it today and leave a comment below to let me know how it went!

Hi stampers! Today I’m bringing you a video with a GREAT way to use up all those scraps of designer series paper you have laying around! I recently learned the herringbone technique and have enjoyed using it on a couple of cards since then. I’ll show you another one next week that uses product from the Occasions Mini Catalog – today’s uses Sale-A-Bration products (SAB ends in just 2 days!!!) The video is pretty long so I’ll let you get straight to it! I’ll post a photo of the project as well as the full supply list below the video! I’ve turned comments back onto my blog so please comment! Have a wonderful day!!!
Hello!!! This is a swap I made for Stampin’ Up!’s Leadership Conference back in January! It uses many of the new products from the Occasions Mini Catalog, including the Bordering on Romance stamp set, Labels Collection Framelits dies, and the Adorning Accents Edgelits dies. I LOVED discovering that the Ovals from the Ovals Originals die (there are 3 sizes on the die) were a fun way to layer on top of the new Labels Collection Framelits dies. I used an unconventional color scheme that I found on page 28 and 29 of the Occasions Mini Catalog: Pink Pirouette, Pretty in Pink, Calypso Coral, and Pear Pizzazz (with a touch of Whisper White). Just a quick note about how I colored the focal point. The technique is called Burnishing and usually people use the Sponge Daubers to do it, but they were too large for this particular image. So I used Q-tips to color it in instead! Hope you enjoy this project!
Let me know if you would like to see a video on this technique! I turned off comments on my blog for a week or so to try and get rid of the spam so until then, contact me at sarah@sarahlovestostamp.com or on my cell at 816.341.0208!
