"ROCK THE BLOCK"

Get back to basics and start using background stamps in lieu of decorative paper.  Impression Obsession makes it easy with their new 6” x 6” cling-mounted background stamps and their new Roller Block™ mount.  The Roller Block™ is designed to make stamping large stamps much easier than traditional flat acrylic blocks.  With stamps designed to cover a whole card quickly and easily, you’ll never search for that perfectly matched D.P. again… you’ll stamp it!  We will also be using a new line of die cut cards and overlays from The Paper Cut.

CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS

At a recent trade show one of the hottest products was a set of three acrylic birds that can be transformed with a little stamping and bling into any number of holiday décor items.  Use them as package decorations; hang them as decorations on the tree; hang them outside on a wreath to greet visitors – the possibilities are endless!  Next we will use a Spellbinder die to create Santa’s sleigh.  Just fill it with fill with candies and insert a place card and it makes a perfect holiday table decoration!  Bring class kit
