Lillybet's Papers

Hello and welcome to the social stamping hop for March. ...Wow How is it March already? As the year rolls on we are getting closer to the end of the Annual Catalogue , which means the launch of a brand new set of 5 In Colours and the retirement of the 5 listed for June 2019- June 2021. I will be very sad to see Pretty Peacock and Seaside Spray leave us particularly, but at the same time I am intrigued to know what the new ones might be. I have used Pretty Peacock for this week's card- a fancy fold. This is the card closed and when you open it - a wiper pops up with a decoration- in this case another butterfly.

 Stampin’ Up! has always had lots of sets with butterflies- stamps, at least 4 punches, thick die plates, embossing folders, papers and thinlits. I have owned a selection but not all of these, so I was not overly excited when the news came of another butterfly set..... but then I saw some samples created by the Artisan Team and I knew I had to add them to my collection.  They are STUNNING! Here’s one of my first creations.  The large single die cuts all the stamped images at once, as well as cutting all the whole butterflies in one of the sheets of the 6x6 DSP . Individual dies cut the detailed butterflies which I have cut from vellum here. The finely textured woodgrain paper 12 x 12 is also available while stocks last. You’ll  love this set. I hope you have a creative week and remember,  "don't just post online,  post something pretty!" cheers, Liz
