A group of 17 extremely talented Stampin' Up! UK demonstrators in the Jules Jems team have set up a blog hop to show you projects using brand new products from the new Stampin' Up! Spring & Summer catalogue and the Sale A Bration freebies too……. Just press on the Prev… or Next… icons at the end of my post to travel round in whichever direction you prefer!! There is also a full listing of all the participants blogs right at the end!!

So my share for today is a card for Valentines Day….. I have used lots & lots of new products on this card as well as finally making the Scallop Square Card Easel card to add to my Scallop Square Die project collection!! I hope that you like the card… my ladies have thoroughly enjoyed making this card – not only is it a great card to reproduce in your own style – but it is one that can be easily adapted for any occasion – and as - they like grids!!  But they did not see the easy grid in the Bingo background stamp that I used! Sorry ladies for making you pierce it before!!!!

So what new products have I used…. and what else do you get in the pack!! Scroll down below the Hop icons to see the full listing of products used.

That’s The Ticket. Something for all occasions… gorgeous to use with (or without) the co-ordinating Ticket Duo Builder punch!! I feel that I have been waiting for this stamp set for a very long time! And now it is here…. It is fantastic!

Hearts A Flutter These also come with matching Framelit dies as a bundle!! We like bundles….. great value….

Hi Amanda, your Inspiraton Station a couple of training days ago where you showcased the Scallop Square Die was inspiring, I got the die and came on your site for instructions to make some of the items you had on display. So a big thank you for that and for todays card which I will also be attempting. Angie.

I love the colours on this Amanda! Gorgeously simple. And after your inspiration station at our training last year I always think of you when I see something made with the scallop square die!!
