We are so excited to be introducing to you Heartfelt Creations! We have been thinking of bringing on stamps for a few years now, and frankly it has been quite overwhelming with all the darling stamps on the market! How do I take on a project this size? So, when Stacey from Spellbinders told me how they have teamed with a few select stamp companies, I knew I had found the right niche! Stacey took me over and introduced me to Richard and Emma Lou of Heartfelt Creations and I fell in love with their designs. I knew we had to carry their line of coordinating pre-cut rubber stamps along with their exclusive Spellbinders dies! Teaming the Spellbinders dies with the matching stamps gives you a 3-D explosion of possibilities, and adds depth to any project! This combination takes die-cutting to an entirely new level. You will love it. Watch a VIDEO here of Emma Lou demonstrating how to use the stamps and die cuts together to create beautiful projects: Heartfelt Creations & Spellbinders VIDEO
The new Halloween and Christmas dies and textured impressions embossing folders (TIEF) from Sizzix just arrived! We have bats, candy corn, fence and a very scary tree dies and a fall and other Halloween themed TIEF for Halloween cards and layouts. For Christmas, there are two different TIEF’s: Christmas Set #4 and Christmas Set #5. They also have a school TIEF for your” first day of school” scrapbook pages or a card for teacher.
I am very excited about this new MME paper release. We have our very own custom collections of the Lost & Found paper. This paper is so gorgeous, you have to see it! Images do NOT do it justice! The Alphabet Soup, Halloween and Christmas paper also arrived, so we have plenty to keep you busy now the kids are back in school!
Many of you have expressed confusion about how to use the new Cuttlebug Embossing Folders Plus! We have posted a “How to” video on our site to help you as the instructions on the packaging are not very clear.
The most important thing to remember before beginning is to remove the cardboard backing by removing the two green tabs at the top! DO NOT TRY RUNNING THE FOLDER THROUGH YOUR MACHINE BEFORE DOING THIS! You could break your plates or your machine!
Once these are removed, you can take the folder off of the backing and follow the instructions on the backing.
These are so fun and easy that we want you to have fun too!
A mixing of soft petal pink, cameo blue, and antique mahogany becomes a study of timeless treasures found. It reminds me what you would find at an estate sale. This will be available in mid October 2010.
In a color palette of red, black, white and green, this paper is just how Christmas and the holidays should be! And it will be shipping in late August so you can get a jump on your Christmas cards.
I love the color combination in this collection. You receive great shades of brown, green and blue with cream as your neutral shade. The cream color warms it up so nicely! This is shipping in mid October 2010.
Pronounced “PEAR-us”, this collection is named after the pear fruit. With nutmeg brown, apple red and pear green, this makes up one delicious layout or card! Perfect for fall, and shipping in late August.
This is a travel themed collection with colors of red, yellow, green and white. Now that school is starting, you can scrap your summer vacations! Also available late August.
Also available for pre-order is the 2011 custom Calendar Kit. Janeth bought these lat year for her sisters and gave them for gifts! They loved them so much, she is doing it again this year!
You receive everything you need to make a really cute calendar that is as individual as you are. Supplies are limited are on this item, so if you want one, make sure you pre-order.
If you would like to see the video I did at CHA introducing these new paper lines, you can view it at this blog post.
When I visited My Mind’s Eye (MME) at CHA, I fell instantly in love with their new paper collection Lost & Found. If you like a little bling on your paper like I do, then you will LOVE this collection! The images do not do the colors of these papers justice. And the best part about this is I contracted with my rep (the very adorable and competent KC Burningham!) to have our own exclusive 12 x 12 paper kits in each line! You receive two each of ten different papers, and 7 or 8 of the papers have glitter! So here they are:
This is the Portobello. It has a western cowboy theme in colors of aqua, grey and tan.
This is Madison Avenue which is stylish and chic in pinks and browns.
This is Market Street with a bird cage theme in aqua and pink.
And my favorite, because I love red and black, is Union Square. This has a vintage travel look.
These kits are available for pre-order right now and are due to arrive sometime this month. As they are packaged exclusively for Cut@Home, you can only get them here. We have a limited supply, since they are a special order, so if you are crazy about this line and want to get each of the papers, this is a really good bargain! I also have a few projects so you can see the vision of the beauty of this paper from the MME designers.
The Alphabet Soup collection gives you a choice of paper and accessories kits for a boy or a girl!
For Halloween, you have two paper & accessories kits to choose from: Blackbird and Haunted.
All NEW Basic Grey paper pads and Bling It are shown in this video. The paper pads that are featured along with beautiful projects are: Pyrus, Jovial, Wander, Marjolaine, and Curio. Also shows some new Bling It scrapbook embellishments. These are all releases from JULY CHA 2010!

Here are some new papers released from Graphic 45 at CHA in Chicago. There is also a video at the end of this post showing two of the lines Halloween Wonderland and Christmas Past. Christmas past is a new re-release with 4 new papers!
Here is a quick look at the new paper from Graphic 45! The Christmas Past collection is different from the one they released lat year. They added four more papers and two more colors – plum and country blue.
They came out with a unique twist on Halloween paper I think you will enjoy with Hallowe’en in Wonderland:
Think Alice in Wonderland on Halloween! The colors are great, especially the purples!
The Halloween paper in the 8×8 and 12×12 will be arriving next week, and the other two are available for pre-order in the 8×8 and 12×12 paper pad sizes as well. They should be arriving the first week in August.
I love the Lacey collection of nestabilities! The Witches Brew shapes and Nested Bats will be great for Halloween layouts. I love how Spellbinders gave us a right and a left shoe!
Now, let’s look at projects! Keri Lee Sereika created some beautiful projects using the Lacey Circles:
She used felt on the first project, and they have clips glued on the back to make barrettes for your hair. On her second project, she used the Lacey Circles as a clasp. Keri also has a great idea for using your nestabilities for borders. Check out her blog post. Great ideas Keri!
Kazan Clark had a ghoulish good time with her Halloween dies!
Well there ya have it! Another great Spellbinders Blog Frenzy! Spellbinders is releasing additional dies at CHA next week, so make sure you check our pre-order category on July 27th. To find out the recipes on the designs featured, please click on the designers name.
A new day has dawned and you know what that means! MORE Spellbinders dies!! Today’s blog frenzy revealed two new dies – the Nested Hearts and Wonky Squares Nestabilities!
The S4296 Nested Hearts have a very Victorian flair to them with the scrolls. They look like charms to me with the loop at the top. Heidi Blankenship designed the following projects:
I love the abstract lines of this die. Stacked they make a great pinwheel!
These dies and the rest you have seen are available on our pre-order page. Tomorrow we will show the last dies, then I will be getting ready for CHA next week! To see the recipes on making these projects, please click on the designers name.
I hope you are enjoying this sneak peak of some of the new Spellbinders dies! I have six new dies and coordinating projects to share with you today, so let’s get crackin’!
Fantastic projects! Kudos to all the talented women on the Spellbinders DT team! For the recipes and step by step instructions on how to make these projects, please see the designers individual blogs by clicking on her name.
As before, all these dies are now available for pre-order through our website. Make sure you keep all the pre-orders on the same order and don’t mix them up with items that are available. Tomorrow is the last day of the blog frenzy, so stay tuned!
We are not the only ones celebrating Christmas in July! If you are not in the mood yet, you will be after seeing today’s Spellbinders Blog Frenzy release!
This pendant die will surely join the ranks in popularity with the Fair Isle and Lotus Pendants! Just look at these gorgeous projects done by Becca Feeken!
Merry Christmas!! The first project is a card, which can be used year around. The second project is an ornament, the third a caddy and cards and the last shows three different projects: a hanging 3-D snowflake, a card and a box topper.
The first project uses both the fleur de lis and the scalloped circle. The second project, the card, reminds me of old world France – love it!
For the recipes on how to make these projects, click on the designers name.
As for the Presto Punch machine, Spellbinders is still waiting for UL approval then it will start shipping! I can’t wait to own this little machine and all these fun templates! These punches and the other blog frenzy dies are available for pre-order only on our website.
Well, here we go again! It is time for the semi-annual Spellbinders Blog Frenzy where we get a sneak peak of the latest and greatest dies! I will first show you the die, then two projects made with the featured die. For recipes and instructions on how to make these projects, please click on the designers name and it will direct you to her blog. Let’s get started!
This Nestabilities includes five ornament dies with an antique flair to them. Look what Julie Overby created:
The first design is a personalized ornament to hang on a tree, garland or gift. The second design is a vintage card made with copper foil. Thanks Julie!
Her first design is straight out of a chic Bed-n-Breakfast! It’s definitely tea for two with this great tea bag gift set. Her second design is a vintage card to just say hello. Great job Debbie!
Look at the workmanship that went into creating this keepsake box! The card is so beautiful it speaks for itself. Judy commented this die reminds her of her Grandma’s old lace handkerchief. Grandma’s handkerchief never looked so good. Thank you Judy!
Latish Yoast channeled her inner ghoul to create these great Halloween projects using these shapeabilities:
Thanks Latish!
These dies and the rest of the blog frenzy dies are available for pre-order through our website.
Tomorrow I will give you a sneak peak at two more dies. The Spellbinders Blog Frenzy continues until July 20th, so make sure you visit our blog every day until then to see what new dies Spellbinders is releasing at summer CHA.
It is official! According to the July 8 press release, Lifestyle Crafts (the makers of the Letterpress) has entered into an asset purchase agreement with QuicKutz Inc. to purchase the QuicKutz and Letterpress brands and products.What does this mean for our customers? QuicKutz will start back with their monthly product releases and start shipping all the back orders! It may take until fall to get all the back orders back in stock, but eventually they will have all their dies and accessories back in stock. My rep informed me they do plan on carrying less inventory than they have previously, so you may want to keep that in mind when you find something you HAVE to have. Get it while you can so you don’t have to wait And even if you do have to wait, it shouldn’t be months like before. Hopefully, no longer than six-eight weeks. We are very excited about this, and hope we will all benefit from QuicKutz reorganization very soon!
Have you wondered what the difference is between the Spellbinders Scalloped Nestabilities? I know I have always found it difficult to try and explain the different sizes of the scallops to customers on the phone. Well, Beth from the Spellbinders design team took this great photo of the three different scallops!
A picture is worth a thousand words! As you can see the petite scallops are a little smaller and closer together and the big scallops are farther apart and give you a wider scallop. So when you are looking for which scallop to buy, the size of the SCALLOP is described as either petite, classic or big. The size of the DIE is small or large.
It is Independence Day on Sunday here is the United States of America, so we will be closed on Monday, July 5th and the mail will not be running. So plan on an extra day to receive your USPS mail! To celebrate the 4th of July, I am sharing with you this Patriotic card from Holly on the Spellbinders blog using the S4092 Star Nestabilities:
Thanks Holly! It really gets me in the mood to celebrate!
I will have the rest of the Quickutz new release dies on the website on Tuesday, so if you don’t see what you are looking for, please check back on Tuesday.
I also added more Scor-Pal tape in bigger sizes. The Scor-buddies are due to arrive July 19th AND the sale on the Scor-Pal has been extended until August 31st!
Look for our July 7th newsletter. We will be celebrating Christmas in July all month long!
Thank you and have a safe and happy July 4th weekend! I hope you have some time to yourself so you can scrap!
Just wanted to make everyone aware that we NOW are shipping anything under 13 oz for ONLY $3.20. This includes all scrapbooking and card making supplies that can go first class within the continental U.S. We are REALLY excited to be able to offer this great shipping! Obviously there are some items that do weigh under 13 ounces, but are too bulky and these we would have to adjust, but for the most part I think this along with a 40% off coupon is a GREAT DEAL! We love being able to pass on savings to our customers!
I love how she uses the different media like cork, felt and the pages from an old book. With the Wizard die-cutting machine, you get 3000 lbs of pressure so you can cut felt, cork and smash bottle caps.
She also gives a good tip on how to make your vine pop out and look a little “weather beaten”. Using the On the Vine Border Grand, she sprays the paper with water then lets it dry.
This is what her finished page looks like:
Another fun idea using the On The Vine Border Grand is to cut the vine into sections for smaller projects or to use at the base of a flower.
This gorgeous card was designed by Spellbinders International Guest Blogger, Yvonne Hagane. She used the Labels Ten and the Flowers Creation die to create this eye catching flower. For the recipes and more information on the designs featured in my blog, please visit the Spellbinders blog.
It’s time to celebrate the little girls and boys in our lives with cards and scrapbook pages with the latest paper pads from Basic Grey, Oliver and Olivia!
Oliver is a playful mix of plaids, stripes and dots in red, blue and green. The boys will love this paper!
Olivia is pretty in pink! and green! and white! With hearts, stripes and flowers, this will make all the girls happy!
Also from Basic Grey is more Opalines, Bling It’s and Bling It On’s. Here is a sample:
For ALL the new Basic Grey products that were just released today, visit our Basic Grey New Products link!
This great idea comes from Beth from the Spellbinders Blog. She cut the points off two different sizes of the Star nestabilities and attaches the points to a ribbon to make a pennant. What a creative way to use your star die cuts!
She also used my favorite Graphic 45 paper, A Proper Gentleman. What a handsome gift bag for Father’s Day and any other masculine holiday! Thanks Beth!
This is my Rainy Day Fun layout. It is designed for a 12 x 12 two page layout. For the momma duck I used the two medium paisley for the body, head and wing. I cut the beak in a different color using the same die as the head, then cut it down. The tail is cut from the second to smallest paisley. For the cute baby ducks I used only the two smallest paisley, using the same technique as the momma.
The puddle is made from the two largest dies. I also love using the smaller paisleys as splashes or raindrops! I used the Tear Drop Cricut cartridge for the title. Add a few flowers with Dew Drop centers and there you have it! An adorable little duck family out for a rainy day stroll!
Have a great weekend and I hope you have time to scrap!
Here is a NEW video we launched to give a quick overview of the beautiful kinds of Petaloo Flowers. Nothin’ priced over 7.99! They are simply amazing. We have seen so many scrapbook pages and cards using these paper and fabric flowers and are so impressed with what you gals can do. So if you are new to Petaloo and are visual here’s a short clip: PETALOO FLOWERS
This is GREAT idea from The Spellbinders International Guest Blogger Yvonne Hagane. Cut four strips of any of the petite borderabilities, and trim to make a square or rectangle frame. Here is an example using the S4240 Lotus Borderabilities Petite:
And here is her finished project!
Isn’t this just gorgeous! Way to go Yvonne!
Have a good weekend and I hope you have time to scrap!
The website is now working! So come shop with us and get in on all our GREAT Father’s Day Sales! We have the Spellbinders Butterfly Reflections die for only $5.99! A Proper Gentleman 8×8 paper pad is perfect for Father’s Day Cards and layouts and only $6.99! We have some Quickutz dies that will also be great for Father’s Day cards: 2×2 Shirt and tie for $3.99 and two Golf dies!
We just discovered we are having internal problems with our website. You are able to put items in your cart and apply the coupon, but can’t checkout. Our website guru extraordinaire is hot on the trail and will have it fixed in a jiffy! We are so sorry for the inconvenience. We will let you know as soon as it is fixed. Thanks for your patience!
Take a look at our NEW Youtube video! We featured four manual die-cutting machines and briefly described each one in a five minute video. We think Carrie will be nominated for an Oscar!
Judy Hayes from the Spellbinders Design Team came up with a great idea on how to get more mileage from your borderabilities. If you are using your borderabilities as the base of you design, you can cut it and use another die cut on top of it! Here is what I mean using the S4214 Eyelet Borderabilities Petite and Judy’s project Rain or Shine as an example:
No one will ever know! It is a great idea to stretch those petite borderabitilites to fit an 8×8 or 12×12 layout. She also used the S5019 Labels Eight, which is one of my personal favorites.
Have a great Memorial Day weekend and don’t forget to use your coupon before Monday night! As a reminder we will be closed on Monday and reopen on Tuesday at 10am MST.
I spoke to Provocraft this morning to find out when the new Cuttlebug folders will be shipping. I know quite a few of you have pre-ordered them and everyone is anxiously awaiting this latest release. All but the new Embossing Plus folders are due to arrive this week. The Embossing Plus are due to arrive the middle of June. We will split what orders we can to expedite the shipping of these very hot items. We will be in touch hopefully this week if all goes as planned.
WHAT IS SCORING:Scoring breaks down the fibers in the paper and allows it to bend and fold accurately without creasing other part of the paper, making your fold EXACT!
From Scor-Pal to Crafters Companion to Scor-It-All to Martha Stewarts Scoring Board, we have had many questions flying about what is the BEST scoring tool out there or if there is really a difference in which one you should buy.
So here at CutAtHome.com we did our own investigation visiting forums, talking to owners, designers, and of course most important YOU the PAPER CRAFTERS! Here is what we found out. Many like the Crafters Companion because of its options (i.e. envelopes),but complain that it does not have the deep channels like the Scor-pal. With deeper channels the score line makes for easier scoring and not having to press so hard. The Scor Pal is lines with a scoring tool, thus the “learning curve” is much easier. The crafters Companion is geared towards the paper crafter that is okay with complexity and a large learning curve. It is also double the price of the Scorpal because of everything it comes with and does.
Okay lets talk about the new MS scoring tool (Martha Stewart Scoring Board). This is the newest scoring tool on the market and is less in cost than all, but also has the most complaints. When scoring it tends to jump out of the tracks if you don’t push down really, really, hard. This is due to the flimsy material it is made out of. If you are planning on doing ONE project and then will never do card folding again, then this is an option. The other thing we’ve seen across the message boards is that eighth inch marks are VERY confusing.
There was NOT much talk about Scor-It-All (Scor-It) Tool that we could find other than what the owners say, which is it comes in 5 different styles ranging from 6 inches to 36 inches. It has a ruler function that seems to be useful. We also read through a bunch of reviews online and Scor-Pal still was favored by majority and that the Scor-It-All was more sturdy, but more difficult to use. If you are wanting to score chip board or other REALLY hard materials this could be an option. Here are what other people are saying that had a debate on Craft Critique: Scor-Pal vs Scor-It
Why Cut@Home chose to carry the SCOR-PAL over the others?
1. More sturdy with two side rails, which help with stability and compatible for right and left handed people.
2. Wider Deeper Grooves so tool does NOT jump rail. And helps with scoring thicker materials. Has been tested for depth perfection over & over. (see image to the right)
3. Quick measurements at every half inch making it SIMPLE to score.
4. Easy access to the tool on top of board and Multiple scores w/o having to move the paper.
5. Many accessory items also offered like the Scor-Mat and Scor-Bug.
6. The Price is affordable for the excellent quality you receive & so much more!!!
CONCLUSIONS:
If you don’t need anything fancy and want a scoring board and tool that is EASY to use and practical, but built with quality and durable enough to score through MOST materials for an affordable price, we feel the Scor-Pal is the BEST OPTION! Read more about Scor-Pal… or see the NEW Scor-Buddy, which is portable and ideal for card making, invitations, and small gift boxes! Grooves are at every 1/4 inch. (Arriving in second week of June, but available for Pre-Order).
After what seems like waiting an eternity, the new Quickutz A2 embossing folders are finally here. They are darling and so much fun, we think they were worth the wait! Quickutz had a quality control issue with the new embossing borders, so they have been removed from our site until QK is satisfied with the quality. We don’t have an ETA on them and will let you know as soon as we have any information on them. Until then, enjoy the A2 folders!
Perhaps some of you have noticed a little box called, “International Conversions” on all our product pages. Here’s what it looks likes.
We are sooo excited about this new update & feature to our website. CutAtHome.com ships ALL scrapbooking supplies worldwide. However, we know that it is a frustration sometimes for our International Customers to have to do currency conversion calculations in the head. NOT ANYMORE!
It is for viewing ONLY meaning that to checkout and order products will still be in US Dollars. But we HOPE this makes it a little easier and improves your shopping experience when looking to make that amazing scrapbook or card! Visit our Policy Page if you have any questions.
Do you just love your Scor-Pal? If you are a huge fan like I am, then you are going to want to take a peek at the Scor-Buddy, the latest brain child of Diana Crick, the creative mastermind of the Scor-Pal products. Lady Di has so many ideas rolling around in her head, and this mini version of the Scor-Pal is sure to be a huge hit with card makers. If you travel to crops or just need to whip out a card really fast, the Scor-Buddy is lightweight and portable and comes with its own storage tote. The price point is very affordable at $19.95, which is down five dollars from the projected MSRP they advertised at CHA.

This stuff is amazing! I am in love with Scor-Tape and the 1/4″ is what I use most!
It is absolutely the easiest thing to use for applying ribbon, paper strips or fabric for borders. It is also great to use on photo mats if you want them to stay in place! So many uses!
Easy to apply, all you do is place it where you want it to go, peel off the backing, then apply whatever it is you want on top! No sticky glue on your fingers! No break in the adhesive because you didn’t run it right! No puckering of paper or ribbon! This is a “Must have” for card makers and scrapbookers alike!
Scor-Pal has been out of stock on the 1/4″ Scor-Tape, however, I am happy to report it is back in stock and we just got a large shipment! So give it a try if you haven’t already and let me know what you think.
April is fast coming to a close and that means you only have two more days to take advantage of your 40% off VIP coupon. On Saturday it will by May, and we will have a new coupon code for the month. It is hard to believe the year is almost half over. How are you doing on your New Years resolution to scrap more?
I really got my creative juices going with the SpellbindersClassic Paisley die this time! I betcha didn’t know you could make bears out of this Nestabilities die! Neither did I til I gave it a try!
Here is my first card:
I used the three smallest Paisley in the set for this guy, along with Stampin’ Up’s 1/2 circle punch DCWV Natural Solid Cardstock Mat Stack for the bear body, inking around the edges with Stampin’ Up’s Close to Cocoa ink pad, then lining with black pen. The paws, nose, lettering and background are from DCWV Natural Mat Stack. I used the same die size for the paws as for the legs, then cut them down. The lettering is Quickutz 4×8 Dragonfly Alphabet! To finish up I used small google eyes and a heart punch for the ears!
Here is a slightly different look, for the same teddy bear:
For this teddy bear, I used DCWV Linen Closet Mat Stack for the background and scalloped circles. The Scalloped Circles are cut with Spellbinders Classic Scalloped Circles Small. Add a little ribbon, and there you have it! This was a fun project!
OH! I almost forgot the best part! We have the Classic Paisley Nestabilities die on sale for only $12.49! So not only do you have some cute card ideas, you can get the die on sale! Don’t you LOVE it!
Oh my goodness! You are going to LOVE this latest 12 x 12 paper collection from MME, the Meadowlark, in Dawn and Dusk. If you are a fan of all that’s black & white, then this is the paper collection for you! I can see it in my family album already, or a wedding layout. The patterns are everything from floral to plaid to dots to paisley. Accent your pages with any of the gorgeous flowers from Petaloo. I see the Giant Daisy’s in a 12 x 12 layout in yellow or red or chartreuse!
And while you are browsing through MME, don’t forget to look at all the paper and accessories we have on clearance.

So thanks again for your support and have a good day!
My Minds Eye is having some killer close out deals and I am so excited to pass them along to you, my favorite customers! The Laundry Line is probably one of my favorite MME releases of all times. I love the muted colors and trendy designs. So you can imagine my excitement when my rep told me I can get some mega value packs in my two favorite lines: Coastal and Natural! These mega packs contain over $50.00 worth of paper, titles, rub-ons, etc. and I am selling them for only $17.99! Here is what they look like:
Aren’t they great! And what a bargain!! Supplies are limited, so if I sell out, I will try and get some more but there are no guarantees. So get them while they are HOT!
I am also excited to offer you a Title Mega Pack! This is also a phenomenal value! You receive 85 MME titles in one explosive package for only $8.99!
Here is what I do when I need to make a card really quick. I got my Citrus A2 Box of Cards from DCWV, however, any of their Box of cards will do. Then I grabbed my Petaloo Large Florette Dazzlers and found a florette to compliment the colors on the card, and stuck it in the corner like so:
I really love the Petaloo Large Florettes because the centers are separate from the petals, so you can have a different color center if you want. Please they are self adhesive, and sometimes I just don’t feel like glueing!
Then I pre-cut a bunch of Nestabilities Classic Scalloped Ovals in coordinating colors that are blank. I also have phrases like “Thanks”, “Baby”, “Happy Birthday” etc. already to go or I can use my stamps to stamp a phrase on the oval Nestie, and voila! Instant card! Fast, quick and easy!
Have a great weekend and look for our Nestabilities sale next week.
I am so excited to share my cute card ideas for my very first blog! I’ve been playing around with the Spellbinders Nestabilities Classic Paisley Set. You wouldn’t believe all the fun ideas that you can do with Paisley! I would have never guessed it if I hadn’t sat down and thought: “Hmm… what else can I do with this die?”
So I started thinking about this and playing with the set while my husband made me sit and watch a movie with him ( I can’t just sit!), and here’s what I came up with!
My first card is Ahoy Matey.
I used the DCWV All About Boys Mat Stack , found the ship and thought that a whale would look cute with it! The whale and water spray is made from the three smallest dies in the Classic Paisley set. For the tail I just took a notch out of the paisley and that was all I did for a whale! For the title I used Quickutz Banana Split Alphabet. This card would be perfect for a baby boy birth announcement, birthday invitation or birthday card for a boy. You could even use it for a cheerful get well or just say HI card. I may decide to ditch the card and put it on a scrapbook page!

Just arrived! The new Die Cuts With a View (DCWV) mat stacks in the 4.5 x 6.5 size and the 12 x 12 paper stacks! We have both the print and the solids in both these sizes. (If you want us to carry the 8 x 8 size, let us know) Being a confessed paper junkie, I just love Die Cuts With a View paper collections. The colors are so rich and vibrant and I love all the foil and glitter they have, that adds just a little bit of sparkle. I think my favorite of this new release is the Natural:
I have all boys and this paper is perfect for their scrapbook pages. I love the A2 Box of Cards in the Natural too.
Another great paper stack in the 12 x 12 is the Eco. Green and red are my two favorite combinations (and not just for Christmas either!) so this one caught my eye immediately:
Last but certainly not least, is the Mango Frost! This one is sure to be a HUGE hit! Just look at these colors!! It makes me want to head for the Bahamas right away!
Aren’t they just great? All the new paper except the Eco has coordinating solid papers in each size. Visit our website to see all the new DCWV releases!
We have several of the new Tim Holtz Sizzix dies that just arrived! We have several Movers & Shapers Magnetic dies, some are the Bigz dies that really make a bold statement! I am having a hard time choosing a favorite from his designs. See if you have better luck than I do!
The first is Styled Labels. I love both these labels and you get two for the price of one! The Keyholes are going to look great paired with any vintage die, like the Baroque.
Take a look at the latest Cuttlebug products available for pre-order! They will begin shipping in April and May.
We have three new A2 embossing folders, five new 5×7 embossing folders and one 7″ border.
Brand new to this collection is the Embossing Plus in three different sizes: 2 x 2.75, A2 and 5 x 7!
They also come in sets with two different sizes of dies.
In case you are wondering, the Embossing Plus is a die that cuts and embosses with one pass of your die-cutting machine. This differs from the combo dies where you had to put it through your machine once to cut, then the second time to emboss. How great is that!
Also new, Provocraft has twelve inch embossing borders in three styles to choose from:
To go along with the twelve inch embossed borders, they also have the adaptor, cutting and spacer mats that measure 6 x 13″.
