Piece of Cake card duo... and Back in Stock...

 

Happy to tell you that the Cake Builder Punch (and therefore the Piece of Cake bundle with 10% off) is now back in stock in Europe and so available to order...

So to celebrate this fact... here is a project we made earlier and have been keeping back!

However be warned... it is already low in stock... so I hope that there are plenty more on the next (15th April) delivery! Or it will be going unorderable again!

Also known as when Beautifully Detailed & Rectangles Stitched dies meet Piece of Cake in Highland Heather, Smoky Slate & Pool Party... thank you Jane!

More details (and original colourways) on the cards here...

And as for the unorderable Butterfly Punch/Bundle... latest delivery estimate into the European warehouse is 15th April...

Like wise the Bunny Builder Punch/Bundle... which has also recently become unorderable... 15th April estimated...

And as a final Stock related update for today... as I might as well get all the bad(ish) news out of the way at the same time!!

Storage by Stampin' Up! is proving very popular... and so it is likely that it will go out of stock... become unorderable... then come in stock and be available to order again... and so on!

So if it is a must have for you... order sooner rather than later! Not that we have an imminent likelihood... so don't panic... but it is likely to happen as the weeks and months roll by!

I personally can't wait for mine to turn up (as I was not messing around!! There is only one other thing that gets me as inspired as new Stampin Up products... and that is... yes you have guessed it... Storage! And I think this system will rove incredibly popular)

Grapefruit Grove & Petal Pink Beautifully Detailed...

Thought I would keep the run of cards together.... and so share the lovely version of this card that Andrea made...

Andrea loves her oranges... and so used the Petal Pink side of the Beautifully Detailed papers... along with Grapefruit Grove cake from Piece of Cake, card mat, sequin flower and 1/8" Ribbon...

All works very well together if you ask me... and it looked really lovely... nice job Andrea...

What do you all think?

Oh so bright Beautifully Detailed!!

Finishing off sharing my (first) trio of Beautifully Detailed cards... also featuring Rectangles Stitched dies (of course!!) and Piece of Cake bundle... using Lemon Lime Twist & Night of Navy colours... 

So... keep it bang up to date with Lemon Lime Twist...

How many times did I hear the WOW word with this one....

But LOL... I had completely wimped out of prepping this one for classes.... FYI Lemon Lime Twist Mat 8.5 x 12.5cm ( US 3 3/8" x 4 7/8")

Though luckily everyone loved the Night of Navy with a little bit of Lemon Lime Twist too...

Missed the other two... just scroll back for the last 2 days... with recipes for the card yesterday... and more product details 2 days ago!

Using Beautifully Detailed... Part 2

So back to my favourite papers in the Spring Summer catalogue... the stunning Beautifully Detailed papers ... and today I have a  few tips on using them...

So what are they? Detailed, laser-cut paper. Petal Pink on one side; white on the other side. One design has a 12" x 12" pattern; the other design has distinct elements to cut out and use for accents or card fronts.  * 8 sheets: 4 each of 2 designs * 12" x 12" * Acid free, lignin free.  Coordinating colours: Petal Pink, white

Love that you get 6 of these panels cut from each of the multi sheets...which makes 24 in total with the 4 sheets in the pack... plus 4 borders/wraps per sheet... so 16 of those...

And what's more... virtually everything else will go with them! Keeps a cardmakers life very easy to produce stunning work... but still keeping it simple!!

As I said yesterday... call this a 3 part series... so far! As I know next month's classes will include part of the packs too!! I have kept them for everyone especially!!!

So first Tip... cutting them... Cut the long 12" long border piece of first.... then the shorter (10") border strips off the side... and then chop the 6 panels into 6... they are each 8.9cm wide x 12.6cm H ... (3 1/2" x a slightly short 5"!)

Second Tip... the Mats... These are are set on a 9.3 x 13cm (US 3 5/8" x 5 1/8") by  Night of Navy mat which gives you a coloured background plus a mat around the edges... two jobs in one...

Oh and (Bonus Tip!) the small Lemon Lime Twist mat is 5 x 8.4cm (US 2" x 3 3/8") to suit the Stitched Rectangle die cut...

Third Tip... the Card Blank... not an A6 card (10.5cm W x 14.8cm H) ... or an (US) A2 card (4 1/4" wide x 5 1/2" H) either... 

But a quick trim down to 14 cm high for us A4 users (ie 10.5 cm W x 14cm H) ... or down to 4 1/8" wide for you US Letter users... (ie US 4 1/8" W x 5 1/2" H)

Also used Rectangles Stitched dies (of course!!) and Piece of Cake bundle... Lemon Lime Twist & Night of Navy... And this card is finished off with a small bow of Lemon Lime Twist 1/4" Ombre ribbon and  Butterfly Gala Adhesive Sequin flower...

PS If you like these you will also love the Delightfully Detailed papers in the Annual Catalogue... same format ... different patterns... white one side with vanilla on the other... as shown below...

 

And a tip - 2 packs of each would get you a free Sale A Bration product for a £45 order... because once you start with these... you won't be able to stop ... just saying...
