PPA73 Pompom Trim

Stampin up occasions mini catalog bold blossom
Pretty trim (like lace) can add a sophisticated or whimsical touch to a handmade card.  This week, the Pals Paper Arts Design Team challenges you to "Get Your Lace In Place" (or any type of trim–we're very open minded) on your next project.  To see the PPA Design Team's clean and simple projects for the "lace" challenge (PPA73), CLICK HERE and play along.

I get to sing a little more today about new products from the Stampin' Up! Occasions Mini Catalog (available Jan. 4).  Here's the NEW PRODUCT ALERT  for today's card

  • Pompom Trim in Tangerine Tango (123323) lights up this sweet 4 x 4 card.
  • Sweet Stitches Designer Big Buttons (122302) are floral "stand-ins" and pack a colorful punch. I used Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight and Tangerine Tango buttons.  Mini Glue Dots ( 103683) keep buttons securely in place.
  • The Occasion Mini's Bold Blossom stamp set (WM 123232, CM 1222332) produces the stems and sentiment.  A great "go to" set for quick cards.  Need to see more of my quick card samples?  Click here or access the "quick" card button on my left side bar.

Just for fun . . . I made a companion "house box" using the Mini Milk Carton Bigz XL Die (117310) and more adorable Pompom Trim.

  3. Hi Doris:

    I appreciate your thoughts. Frankly, a card this size (4 x 4) can’t be mailed in a coordinating envelope . . . it’s too small. It’s intended to be included with a gift or delivered in person. Our Clear Flat Cello Bags make beautiful “envelopes” when folded over, with room to play.

    We also offer padded 6 x 9 envelopes for cards that have heavier embellishments . . . that’s what I use when I get a bit “bulky” with ribbon or embellishments and want to mail it.

    Hugs, M

  4. SU has gone overboard. How can we mail a card by regular mail, which I only do, with pom poms and large buttons. Give me a break.
