Hello Fellow Stampers ~~
We're changing things up a bit and introducing a new Wednesday feature - the Wednesday Spotlight! Sometimes this will be a tip, sometimes a video, sometimes we'll just do the "normal" thing and feature a product and play with paper, stamps and ink! I'm looking forward to sharing with you and hope you will join me as we are getting back into the swing of things here at DDS Studios.
Today it is time for "My Favorite Things" from the new 2019 Spring Occasions Catalog! Oh my!! This one is not easy! Why? Because I literally LOVE pretty much everything in this new catalog. There are probably only a small handful of stamps (maybe about six) that I will be passing up this cycle. The rest are already here, or will be here soon! My work room is full of fun!!
So, I am going to "attempt" to pick out for your my very top picks from this catalog. And maybe "enable" your Wish List along the way too!! LOL
TOP DESIGNER SERIES PAPER PICK
Floral Romance Specialty Designer Series Paper
This paper blows it out of the park - it's the gorgeous Vellum in this pack! You don't want to miss this!!
TOP TEXTURED IMPRESSIONS EMBOSS FOLDER PICK
This newest addition to our embossing folder family is truly "dynamic" - LOL
There's a reason I'm giving this one as my DDS Perk for January!!
TOP BUNDLE PICK
Beauty Abounds
When you just want "pretty" all over - this is the one!! And the butterflies -- oh the butterflies!!
Well Said
When you just "want it all" this is definitely the bundle!
Between the stamp set and the die cut words - you can create combinations to your heart's content!!
TOP DIE PICK
Rectangle Stitched Framelit Dies
These are looooonnng overdue! So kudos to Stampin' Up! for finally getting it right!!
This set of rectangle dies are absolutely fabulous, and they add a stitched edge on both the outside edge and the inside edge.
TOP PUNCH PICK
Butterfly Duet Punch
It was hard to choose - but I picked this punch because you get "2 for the price of 1" on this punch
Both a large and a small butterfly - perfect!!
And the stamp set that goes with this punch isn't anything to sneeze at either -- LOL
(It's a "top pick bundle" in my book!)
TOP STAMP PICK
Let It Ride
What a thrill for me to see a beautiful "pencil drawn" horse set back in the mix again.
We haven't had a set like this in several years!
I'm over the moon and hope you will be too!!
Flowering Desert
I have been attracted to this stamp set from the moment I saw it.
It's truly "awesome" - you can really play with this one - so get it!! LOL
Itty Bitty Birthdays
How absolutely adorable that we got an "Itty Bitty" Birthday sentiment set to go with our "Itty Bitty" Greetings sentiment set in the Annual Catalog.
I have always loved our "Itty Bitty" sentiment sets - they are Perfect for so many card designs - and when you just want to find the perfect little words to fit in the smallest spot.
Snap it up!!
TOP RIBBON PICK
Petal Pink/Whisper White 5/8" Variegated Ribbon
Oh my!!! You just have to touch to even believe it!!
Some of the most gorgeous ribbon since our seam binding.
TOP EMBELLISHMENT PICK
Classic Garage Metal Elements
Cuteness in mini metal shapes!
Even that manly man is gonna like these!! LOL
Like I said - there is so much to love in this catalog this year! I'm having trouble with this one! LOL I hope you love it all as much as I do!! Start working your way through those Wish Lists in my Online Store! You can shop any time from the comfort of your couch!!
