I was so excited to get to play with some new Stampin' Up! goodies this morning. I had a Stamp Camp a few weeks ago and accidentally ordered TWO stamp sets in FRENCH instead of English. DUH! So I had to wait for them to be exchanged. :( Stampin' Up! has AWESOME customer (and demo) support though, and they don't charge anything to exchange an item and ship it to you. All I had to pay was shipping to get the incorrect items TO them since it was my fault and not theirs. If it had been THEIR fault, I wouldn't have even had to pay that! I think that is AMAZING service. A lot of places will charge a restocking fee or make you pay to send the corrected item back to you.
The stamp set (well, one of them!) that I had incorrectly ordered is Perfectly Preserved, along with the coordinating Cannery Set Framelits. I wanted to make some "thank you" tags to attach to the workshop orders I am delivering this weekend so I thought I would share them with you! I was able to use up some tags that I got in an old Stampin' Up! kit but you could easily make something similar with the Two Tags Bigz Die.
I don't know why I didn't get this set earlier! It is so versatile and really easy to use with the framelits. If I have time later today I am going to make some up with gingerbread men and candy canes inside for Christmas! They would make great gift tags too...hmmmm! I think I have a plan for this afternoon. :) Good thing I am a hunting widow today! Oh, I almost forgot! The base cardstock is Chocolate Chip and kind of dark to write on, so in the inside I wrote my thank you note with the Gold Stampin' Dazzle Marker. It looks really nice and saved me the time of cutting a piece of vanilla cardstock for the inside!
Stamp Set: Perfectly Preserved
Cardstock: Chocolate Chip, Very Vanilla
Ink: Early Espresso, Island Indigo, Lucky Limeade, More Mustard, Raspberry Ripple
Tools: Cannery Set Framelits, Small Oval Punch
Accessories: Orchard Harvest DSP, Gold Stampin' Dazzle Marker, Dimensionals
LOVE these. I wasn't sure if I really should get the or not, and now I can see that they are quite versatile. I sure hope they make it into the big catty and not get discontinued. (Cry, cry, sniff, sniff as all the really cool stuff seems to. Anyway, I thought I should let you (my upline) be the first to know I started a new blog for my stamping/crafting stuff - that and I want to play along with your challenges. it is: http://mandysmakings.blogspot.com/
