Somehow it’s already September, but we don’t mind one bit because stamping is in the air! It is officially National Stamping Month, and we are celebrating in style with brand new coordinating stamp sets, Thin Cuts, stencils, and more!
Let’s take a closer look at all the exciting things Close To My Heart President, Monica Wihongi shared on our Facebook page a few days ago.
STAMPS + THIN CUTS:
In our Say It With Style special, there are four stamp sets with coordinating dies that cut the shapes you see outlined in blue.
Each of these stamp sets is available on their own or paired with their coordinating Thin Cuts.
STENCILS:
For additional flair, we have two new sets of card front stencils, designed for both standard and slimline size cards!
These were hard to see in the video because they are made of a clear, plastic material. Here, we are showing you a digital grey rendition, instead, so you can really get the detail that each of these stencils has to offer.
The striped stencils are designed so that you can flip them and cross the patterns as you stencil to create a plaid. The quartered circles stencil pairs of each size are intended to line up with each other and complete the patterns when they are used together.
WORKSHOPS:
At the crest of our Say It with Style special are four cardmaking workshops, complete with downloadable cutting guides and instructions, that put all these wonderful new products to use!
Each of the workshop kits comes with the materials to make 16 cards, four cards of four designs, including one of the Say It with Style stamp sets with their coordinating dies, around a dozen cardstock sheets, card bases and envelopes, and a set of embellishments (either die-cuts or acrylic shapes) just right to complete each look. That is 64 cards, ready to deliver your messages in style!
Additionally, the workshop guides will walk you, step-by-step, through how to use the plaid and quadrant stencils to create the background patterns on each of the cards.
The kits available for each of the workshops are available for purchase with or without the stencils, each at 20% off their retail value. Once you own the stencils, you won’t need to purchase them again for use in another workshop. They are made of a sturdy, see-through plastic material that can be used time and time again.
And, if you’d like to purchase all four workshop kits, there is an all-inclusive bundle that is even more discounted, at 30% off the retail value!
EVENT:
We love the chance to celebrate stamping month with anyone who would like to join in, so we are hosting a two-day event where we will be creating the artwork from these workshops live on our Facebook page!
Join us on October 6 at 2 p.m. MDT and on October 7 at 11 a.m. MDT and learn how to use the stencils, get all of the cutting done for all four workshops, and assemble as many of the cards as we can get to!
Like Monica said, you don’t even have to buy the bundles to watch (but why wouldn’t you want to?). Join us on our Facebook page, here, to see how we use all these great products and let’s enjoy some crafting time together!
