Perfectly Preserved Pears

Perfectly Preserved

I have another Perfectly Preserved card for you today. I’m keeping it fall and Thanksgiving themed for at least another post or two! These little pears look so sweet embossed with the Iridescent Ice powder. This is one of those cards that looks so much better in person!

The 24 hour cooking marathon is about to begin at our house……enjoy the festivities, everyone!

Perfectly Preserved

As I look out my office window, I can see just a few yellow and orange leaves  clinging to one or two trees in the yard. The weather has been just glorious the last few weeks and I find myself lingering in the yard and actually anxious to get outdoors and do yard work. There are so many sights, smells and sounds to be enjoyed this time of year when you live out as far as I do. It is one of the things I am most thankful for. The quiet solitude that just requires a simple stroll out my back door.  This card reminds me of the bounty of blessings I enjoy every day.

I used the corn image from the Perfectly Preserved set and the Orchard Harvard DSP.

Spooktacular Sale!! Oct 29 Only, all stamps 15% off!

This is a ONE DAY ONLY EVENT!! With additional prizes from me!

View the Annual Catalog and Holiday Catalog

For one day only, you will get 15 percent off almost every stamp we sell! I am setting a goal to sell at least 40 sets in one day, so I hope you can help me out!

You know I always throw in extra goodies as an incentive when I am trying to reach a particular goal (because I won’t make those pesky phone calls!). So….. any one person who orders 5 sets (single stamps count as a set) will also get FREE SHIPPING (on their entire order)! You have to place your order by phone or email to get the free shipping, because I can’t process that in the online store.

I will also be giving away random products throughout the day based on order numbers. Hint: the earlier you order the better the selection of free items, because you get to choose your prize if you are one of the lucky number orders! Prizes will include single stamps, stamp sets, ink pads and embellishments all unused but some may be retired.

If I reach my goal of 40 sets, I will give away a stamp set of the month bundle, including the free punch pack! Every set counts as a chance for that prize! Winner will receive the Ornament Keepsakes stamp set, Holiday Ornaments framelits dies, Festive Paper piercing pack, and the Stamp Set of the month Card Kit! So tell your friends and help me meet my goal for the day. The more sets sold, the better the goodies for you!

All orders over $150 receive hostess benefits, so this would be a great time to call or email your friends and host a quick catalog party (send them a digital link through an email). Start gathering your orders now and call to place your catalog party order on Monday! Each order would count toward the free giveaways, but you would earn the hostess goodies if you get to $150! (FREE SHIPPING only applies to individual orders of 5 sets)

Let me summarize that for you!

  • 15% off almost every set we sell!
  • FREE SHIPPING on your entire individual order if you order 5 single stamps or stamp sets!
  • Random free prizes throughout the day based on order numbers!
  • If I reach my goal of 40 sets, I’ll give away a Set of the month bundle to one lucky stamper! Each set ordered counts as an entry into the drawing. 
  • All orders over $150 receive hostess benefits. Throw an impromptu catalog party and earn even more goodies! 

I can’t wait to hear from you on Monday!

918-827-6148

Belinda@stampinpad.com

Here are the details: (Updated 2:35 PM (MT) 10/25/2012)

This means all stamps in the current catalogs including

Frankenstein Treat Box Tutorial

Fancy Favor Frankenstein Box

Create an adorable Frankenstein treat container using the Fancy Favor box die. Cut a 6 x 12 piece of Old Olive card stock and run it through the big shot with the Fancy Favor die. The die cuts and scores for you, so all you need to do is draw in the mouth and scars with a Basic Black marker. Do this on the front panel which would be the panel with the two gusseted sides. Use either liquid Tombow multi or Sticky strip adhesive to assemble the box.

frankenstein fancy favor box

Cut a strip of Basic Black card stock that is 4 x 1 1/2 inches and place it on the die so that the top is trimmed to match the decorative edge.

Frankenstein fancy favor box

Trim the scored pieces off and hand trim the lower edge of the box so that it resembles Frankenstein’s hairline.

frankenstein fancy favor box

Punch the following pieces

  • Whisper White – Two 1″ circles
  • Basic Black – Two 3/4″ circles
  • Old Olive – One 1 inch circle (cut in half) and One Modern Label piece cut at about 3/4″ and trimmed along the sides as shown

frankenstein fancy favor box

Draw a white crescent on each black circle, using the White gel pen. Glue the eyes together as shown. Sponge all of the punched pieces with crumb cake ink to make them stand out against the Old Olive box.

frankenstein fancy favor box

Cut a 1 x 11 inch piece of old olive card stock and punch with a border of your choice to create a handle. Attach the handle to the inside of the box using brads. Attach the hair, eyes and nose to the box as shown. Fill with candy or other spooky treats!

Enjoy!
