DOstamperSTARS Challenge #162: Large Numbers Happy New Year!

December 31, 2015

It's time for another DOstamperSTARS Thursday Challenge.  This week we're having a Color My World challenge. 

DOstamperSTARS Thursday Color Challenge DSC#162

Given that it's New Year's Eve, I went the obvious route with today's color scheme...a Happy New Year's card.  I combined some "old" with some "new" and came up with a fun card to bring in 2016!

What's "old"?  Six Sayings stamp set (retiring soon!)

  • I'm on a mission to use every image from the Six Sayings stamp set.  It's really one of my all-time favorites Stampin' Rewards set (a free choice when you place a $150 or more order).  You'll find it in the 2015 Holiday Catalog and it's retiring January 4th.  So you only have a few days left to get it before it's gone!
  • The greeting is die cut with the Tags & Labels Framelits Dies.  It was a perfect fit!

What's "new"?  Large Numbers Framelit Dies and Balloon Bouquet Punch (2016 Occasions Catalog - coming Jan 5th)

  • Large Numbers Framelit Dies:  These dies are awesome...l lined all 4 numbers up on Gold Glimmer Paper, and one pass thru the Big Shot and they are ready to go!  In addition - there is a coordinating stamp set (Number of Years), and yes...bundle and save 15% (140653).
  • Balloon Bouquet Punch:  finally a balloon punch and it punches two sizes!  It too has a coordinating stamp set (Balloon Celebration) and yes...bundle and save 15% (140810).  I punched the balloons out of Silver Foil Sheets.

So, where did those tiny little stars come from?  Good question...the Confetti Stars Punch.  They are so small, that I used the Fine-Tip Glue Pen to adhere them to the balloons. What to do with the leftover stars (as there are lots of them)?  Put them inside your card for a fun surprise when they open your card -woohoo!  That tip comes courtesy of my husband.

I just want to take a moment to thank my readers, customers, club members, DOstamperSTARS and of course my family & friends for all of your support throughout 2015.  Without you, I wouldn't be able to enjoy the success of my Stampin' Up! business.  I appreciate you all...thank you!

Here's to a happy and successful 2016.  Happy New Year!

Enjoy~Dawn O
