Cake Time!

Our Design Team Member, Kathi Rerek, has been stamping with the super fun Slim Cake Perfectly Clear Stamps. This set includes several layers and lots of fun additions like candles and sentiments. You can make an adorable cake for any sized card or project. She chose to make a darling card here in the popular Slimline size.

It’s That Spooky Time of Year!

It’s that fun time of year when our Halloween stamps are haunting our sleep with project ideas galore. We love seeing what folks make with our images, and we just can’t stop stamping these creepy/cool images and coloring them in then putting them on cards, home decor, or other fun projects.

We hope you’ll share any projects you make this season with us! We have a Stampendous Fans Facebook Group where folks share their creations and get to tell each other how fun they are! Here’s a link to join! https://www.facebook.com/groups/Stampendous/

Here’s a fun project Fran created using our Beware Witch Cling Set and our new  WindowRama Chipboard kit.

Meadows Edge and Meadow Edgers

Our new January 2019 Catalog is full of great innovation from Fran for making interactive, 3D cards that are simple and fun to create. You loved our WindowRama Die Set, and the next step is the Meadows Edge and Meadow Edgers sets.

SSC1294 Meadows Edge Perfectly Clear Stamps contain a ton of elements, 16 clear stamps, that can create all types of scenic backgrounds when stamped and colored in different combinations. From cactus and mesas to fields of flowers or sand, you can have a cottage at the beach or a mountain hideaway with these great stamps.  (You can click on the pictures to be taken to products or projects on our website).

SSC1294 Meadows Edge Perfectly Clear Stamps

They coordinate perfectly with so many of our other stamps, as well as with the WindowRama for perfect backgrounds.

Or take it a step farther with the Meadow Edgers Cutting Die Set. This set of 7 dies is designed to cut right along the edge of the different Meadows Edge stamps to create 3D looks easily without fussy cutting.

DCP1013 Meadow Edgers Cutting Die Set

Use them with the stamps to create intricate or simple layered backgrounds.

You can also use them without the stamps to add some cutting flair to your backgrounds using colored or patterned paper.

Fran has created a wonderful video showcasing these two products working together and separately. We know you’ll love them both. Plus our Design Team has created lots of fun projects to share. Hop around to their posts and leave them some love for your chance to win these two great projects. We’ll choose three winners with U.S. Addresses from the comments on their blog and ours. (Be sure to tell us where you live in your comment). Official Contest Rules are always Here.
