Sneak Peek of Watercolor Melon
If you like watermelon, you’ll love this new stamp set, Watercolor Melon. It’s one of the FREE Sale-a-bration items, with a qualifying order, beginning January 4, 2024.
The stamps are Distinktive, which gives a watercolored look, and I used Garden Green Ink for the whole melon, and Sweet Sorbet for the slice with a bite. The stamp set even has seeds, which I stamped in Memento Black Ink.
Watercolor Melon
The greenery beneath the melon was stamped in Garden Green Ink and Granny Apple Green Ink on Basic White Cardstock.
“Enjoy the sweeter things in life” is from the Sweet Citrus Stamp Set (Annual Catalog), stamped in Memento Black Ink.
After stamping, I used the second largest Deckled Rectangles Die for cutting. This was layered on Garden Green Cardstock, cut with the largest Deckled Rectangles Die, and both were glued to a Granny Apple Green card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.
After stamping, I used the Modern Oval Punch for cutting the whole melon, and tied Black & White Gingham Ribbon around it. If you saw my post yesterday, I said I would show you another use for the punch. Isn’t this great? I fussy cut the slice of watermelon, and attached both with Dimensionals to complete my card.

Filled With Happiness Birthday Card
The Filled With Happiness Stamp Set is in the new, January-April 2024 Mini Catalog, available January 4th. It’s a special set, because it comes with the coordinating, Modern Oval Punch. Everyone loves punches!
I began by stamping the image in Memento Black Ink on Basic White Cardstock, and coloring with Stampin’ Blends in four colors: Boho Blue, Tahitian Tide, Granny Apple Green, and Melon Mambo. Then, I used the Modern Oval Punch for cutting, which punched away the words.
Filled With Happiness
Next, I used the second largest Perennial Postage Die to cut Basic White Cardstock, and stamped the same image a second time. Then, I attached my colored oval on Dimensionals, elevating it above the curved words.
Beneath the white layer is Granny Apple Green cardstock, cut with the largest Perennial Postage Die. The layers are glued to a Boho Blue card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.
I love how the Modern Oval Punch makes it easy to raise the center of the design, don’t you!
Come back tomorrow to see another use for the Modern Oval Punch. It’s SWEET!

Planted Paradise Reversibles
Planted Paradise is a “reversible” stamp set, and I used the “plain” side of a leaf stamp for today’s clean & simple card. This is a new stamp set in the January-April Mini Catalog, available January 4, 2024.
I began by using the largest Perennial Postage Die to cut Basic White Cardstock. This layer was attached, with Dimensionals, to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.
Reversible Leaf
Prior to attaching the layer, I randomly stamped a leaf in several strengths of Shaded Spruce Ink.
The sentiment, “you are loved beyond measure,” was stamped in full strength of Shaded Spruce Ink.
To show a little more love, I used a Sending Love Die to cut a heart from Basic White Cardstock, and attached it with a Dimensional.
Planted Paradise, Perennial Postage, and Sending Love, are all in the January-April 2024 Mini Catalog, and will be available January 4, 2024.

“You’re Soda-lightful” for Global Design Project 425
The Simply Sparkling Bundle is a fun, new, product in “Online Exclusives.” Clicking on the picture, in my Product List below, will take you to my store for details and ordering.
You’re Soda-lightful
This week’s Global Design Project is a color challenge, and I was excited to use the Simply Sparkling Bundle. See how the other designers used the colors, then add your card to our gallery.
I began with a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″, layered with Basic Black Cardstock, 3 3/4″ X 5″. The top layer is Basic White Cardstock, 3 5/8″ X 4 7/8″, embossed with a Basics 3D Embossing Folder for texture. Doesn’t the black make the colors pop?
To create the soda can, I stamped it in VersaMark on Basic White Cardstock, sprinkled it with Silver Embossing Powder, and set it with the Heat Tool. After using its Simply Sparkling Die for cutting, I colored the can with a Lemon Lolly Stampin’ Blend, and stamped the lemon halves, and “always refreshing,” in Daffodil Delight Ink.
Next, I cut two more cans; one from Delightful Floral DSP in Pool Party, and one from Basic White Cardstock that I colored with Petal Pink Ink and a Blending Brush. I also cut two sets of bubbles from a Silver Foil Sheet.
The sentiment “makes” the card, don’t you think? I stamped “you’re soda-lightful” in Memento Black Ink, used a Sending Die for cutting, and attached it with Dimensionals.
