I like to do a 'Top 10' list whenever a new mini comes out and this one was hard, let me tell you! I could have just posted a picture of the catalogue and called it a day but I did my best to narrow it down to just 10 things. Let's get started, shall we?
10. Build A Blossom punch (121808)- love how this punch and coordinating stamp set just took all the work out of creating a card with flowers and dimension! How many times have you painstakingly cut around a beatiful stamped flower just so you could pop it up on a few dimensionals to give your card that extra layer? You need this!
9. Notes & Details Stamp Set (122060)- Okay, so I'm thinking this is going to be my new 'go to' set for scrapbooking, what great sentiments and detail images! Really do love this set.
8. Trinket Crowns & Keys (121891, 121892)- BLING! And you all know how I love to bling out my cards. Crowns? Yes please!!
7. Bring On The Cake Stamp Set (121958)- Wow, this set is too cool. Love all the super fun birthday images in this. This set just replaced On Your Birthday as my new favourite set for bday cards. I especially am digging the samples using this set on pages 20-21 and am looking forward to doing a little CASE'ing on those!
6. Nature Walk Stamp Set (121997) & Botanical Gazette DSP (121783)- This set is not my style. Really, it isn't. But somehow it still placed on my list at #6 because it is so peaceful. I look at it and feel calm, that doesn't happen often in a house of 3 little boys! So I bought it and....use it all the time! I've already made and given 4 or 5 cards with this set. The paper is especially gorgeous and I can't wait to use it on some scrapbooking pages.
5. Seam Binding (Pg.16)- In seven gorgeous colours!! Enough said. And if you don't understand why I love this you obviously didn't try it when it was first offered in the Holiday Mini and you should definately join the party and get yourself some now! :)
4. Love Impressions Specialty DSP (121780)- This paper is rockin'! I believe I mentioned in an earlier post that it reminds me of clothing from the Aeropostale store and it's true. But the flocking is so fun and the designs are all fun and I am having so much fun using it!
3.Fabric Designer Brads (121880)- These really are the cutest things ever. I always forget to pull out my brads to use on projects but wow! My fabric brads are half gone already.
2. Designer Big Buttons (122301, 122302)- Many of you know how difficult it is for me to say a card is finished if there is no button on it and these buttons are even more awesome! They are super smooth and the size just makes them really fun to use. And now there 8 different colours of them...including crumb cake. Again I say, awesome!
1. Create A Cupcake Stamp Set (121982) & Build A Cupcake Punch (121807)- Where do I start? A cupcake punch complete with a cherry, sprinkles and a candle all punched out for you within seconds. There is nothing not to love about this and that is why it's coming in at #1! Oh, and a sentiment with the word fabulous?? It's freakin' fabulous is what it is!
So there you have it. My list of 10 things that I can't live without from this Mini. I hope you're enjoying this catalogue as much as I am!
