Now available! Yay! I am so looking forward to getting this in the mail. I can't wait to make custom envelopes and projects. This will open up a whole new door on creativity. You can order yours now for just $11.95 (125586). The plate measures a little over 12 x 12 so you are able to score your 12x 12 sheets of paper. Love that! It fits neatly atop your SU! Simply Scored tool and has two silicone pads to keep it in place. I am having a class on March 23rd and 24th featuring this tool. If you would like to learn more about how to use it please be sure to sign up. The class will be FREE to anyone who orders a Simply Scored board this month! See my classes page for details.

Such a lovely combo that I never would have paired if it weren't for the Sale-A-Bration designer series paper. This paper is so pretty! I can't put it down and I want to use it on every project I make. I have a card sample for you today that is a variation on one I already did. I have stopped putting greeting onto my card samples as I never have the right one when I need it. I just put my verse on when I am ready to send my card. Supplies: Stamp set: Fresh Vintage Paper: soft suede, pool party and whisper white cardstock; everyday enchantment dsp (SAB only) Ink: soft suede Accessories: decorative label punch, 3/4" circle punch, blossom punch, clear buttons, white bakers twine, and dots embossing folder. This box was adapted from Mary Fish , who got it from another demo, who got it from another demo :). I tweaked it a bit on the lid measurements but everything else is the same. The candies were wrapped using the dsp. My tag was made with the Labels framelits die. My

I am in love with the NEW Designer Cuts cards in the Occasions Mini, if you have been to any of my classes in the last month you will have gotten to use them. They are so elegant and quick. Well, this sweet box here was made with a single Designer Cuts card.  I personally love it when the products I buy are good for many other uses. So to get on with it here is what you do. Open up your Designer cuts card and lay it down on your Simply Scored board with the line running the same way as the scores. I made a score line 1/2" from the center line on either side. So you will have a total of 3 lines.  Next turn your card 90 degrees and score it at 1" on both sides. You will then cut slits for your tabs from the outside in at the box bottom up to the lines that you just scored. Your box should look like the picture here. The box then folds up. I added a piece of designer series paper on the inside laser cut side before I assembled my box. You can assemble your box with sticky stri

Here is a quick card I put together using the My Digital Studio. It features all Sale-A-Bration products. I was able to get all of these on a disc as my FREE item with a $50 order. Now I can print this card at home or I can print it through SU!, or even through an online printing place. I know many demonstrators who just print these up at home quick and easy. Same as you would photos. I personally have only used non-SU online resources. I can print this through SU! by itself for $5.51, it was $1.95 for the card plus tax, S & H. Although the more you purchase the price goes down per card. You can get up to 25% off per card. Which is great for invitations or Holiday cards. Even a thank you set for a new bride or mom. HERE is the link to the pricing information. You can of course create this card using your own stampin' supplies.
