Calling all Quilters

OK so you must be thinking this is a papercrafting site why in the world is she calling for Quilters.  Well while I was at Leadership they showed us something that I just had to share.  Quilters have discovered that our Big Shot is perfect for cutting out designs to make beautiful quilts with. 

I can’t sew a straight line if my life depended on it, but wow do I wish I could.  I was just in love with these beautiful quilts.  The great thing about the big shot is that it can cut through several layers of fabric at once so it saves time.  Plus it can cut out all the fun fancy stuff like curved edges that quilters usually cut by hand.

I’m really new to this stuff and just learning, but if you know of anyone that quilts and would like to save some time please tell them about this great product.  You could even host a party and receive all the great benefits for helping them out.

So here are some of the samples of the awesome stuff they had on display at Convention.  They also gave us each a quilt square and I have some more pictures I just have to find so I will post those later.  Enjoy!

Here’s a close up of the Star from above.  It uses the 5-point 3D star Die.  The one they gave us uses this same die to create a flower.  I would love this quilt for my son’s room or just a fun one for the family room.

This one uses the Pennant Die (a Stampin’ Up! exclusive.)  I think they fold the fabric in 1/2 before cutting for this one.

Here’s another one using the Pennant Die.

I believe the small circles in the center are the Scallops from the Pennant die.  you can also see them on the edges.

This is just a perfect baby blanket.

I love this one with the hearts.  I think it was done with the  Petal Card Die.

Another fun thing they have done is these flowers.  This one was done to clip on a bag.  IT uses the Flower Folds die (another Stampin’ Up! exclusive.)

Here are some more flowers.  I’ve seen them on bags, dresses and ever in little girls hair.  They also use the Scallop Circles and the Flower daisies #2 to create these I believe.

This pirate one is one if my favorites.  It uses the Stampin’  Up! exclusive Top Note Die.

I want this one for my mom so bad.  She loves patriotic stuff.

Once again the stars were created with the 5-point 3D star die.

So if you know anyone one that would love this stuff or you would like to here more contact me today.

On the 10th day of Christmas . . .

 

The Stampin’ Santa gave to you a more Hybrid Cards from “My Digital Studio.”

So I still just love this product.  Here’s some fun easy Hybrid Cards that I made.  First I designed what I wanted on MDS then I printed it and added it to my project.

This is one of my favorites.  I love this quick and easy tag I made.  We even did this one as a make and take.  The “Don’t Open until Dec. 25 is from MDS then I punched it out.  The tag is one of the tags from the two tags die for the Big Shot.

This fun card also used the Big Shot.  I just layered 1″ squares on a white piece of cardstock.  Then I ran it through the Big Shot and cut it with the Top Note Die.  The “Merry and Bright was done with MDS then punched with the 1 3/4” circle punch.

.

.

I really like this card.  The base of the card is Embossed using the Big Shot.  Then I stamped the cute snowman from the Hostess set in the Holiday Min.  The Ornament was created on MDS and then punched out with the ornament punch.

.

.

.

Here’s another quick and easy card.  It’s a fun 3 x 3 card once again embossed with the Big Shot.  The ornament on the front was created in MDS then punched out.  We also put a white paper inside to make it easy to write on and stamped a cute little tree on it.  So easy and simple.

Remember if you order MDS before December 26th you can get it for $15.00 off.  So if Santa didn’t get it for you treat yourself and get it from me.

On the 8th day of Christmas . . .

The Stampin’ Santa gave to you a snowflake candle luminary.

I received this item as a Convention swap.  I just had to make more.  I used them for Teacher’s gifts.  We filled them with candy and gave them the candle so they could turn it into a luminary.

It’s made with the Fancy Favor Big Shot die.  The snowflakes are rolled on with versa mark then I embossed them with the iridescent ice embossing powder.  I punched out a snowflake on each side and covered it with White Vellum.  They are finished off with the cute little “Ready Set Snow” stamp (from Best Wishes & More) on the front punched out with the word window punch and layered on the modern label punch.  They were quick and easy to make.  I love that they can be used for the whole winter season.

Remember that I have the Big Shot on sale in my 12 Days of Christmas.  Get it now and start having fun all year.

This fun project is also one of the ones you can get for FREE when you place a $50.00 order.

On the 7th Day of Christmas . . .

The Stampin’ Santa gave to you a Magnetic Build a Bear Santa Claus.

I love our Build a Bear Line.  We have fun stamp sets, paper as well as dies for the Big Shot.  Plus here’s a little secret.  These items will be around for  a while.  They are listed in the new mini catalog as well along with several fun new ones.  The Big Shot dies are so much fun.  Here I cut the bear out of Magnet as well as the clothes so they could be changed anytime, just like paper dolls.  The best part is they are bears so they appeal to both boys and girls and you can dress them up in both boys and girls.

You can find these silver skinny tins in our Clearance Section on-line.  They are while supplies last so hurry fast.  They are great because you can store all your pieces inside and create your bear on the outside.  They make a great traveling gift for kids.

If you would love to see more of this product in action let me know.  I’d love to do a Build-A-Bear Party.

You can find more info. on these products in our mini catalog.

On the 6th day of Christmas . . .

The Stampin’ Santa gave to you a really fun Candy Gift Box.

So I saw this idea on my friend Patty’s blog and just had to try it.  It’s made with our thick window sheets.  I simply cut out the box using our fancy favor’s box die and my Big Shot.  Then  I I embossed it with the Petals-A-Plenty Impressions Folder from the Holiday Mini.

The only trick is you need to cut your box now too 11″ instead of 12″.  Then you can emboss from each end (you roll it through twice.)

Can I just say I love my Big Shot.  Remember there are lots of great dies on sale right now.  Even if you don’t have the Big Shot yet.  You could start getting your dies and have all the cute ones when you get your Big Shot.  You could even use my Lay-a-Way program.
