There's a few exciting announcements I want to share with you. If you love the sets in the Occasions Mini Catalog, you are in luck! Because of the short time period between the end of the Occasions Mini Catalog and the launch of the 2012-2013 annual catalog, Stampin' Up! has decided to make the carryover stamp sets available early!  The following stamp sets are still available for purchase.  Stamp Set Name  Item Number  Wood-Mount  Clear-Mount  Baby Prints          125470      125472  Love & Laughter  125475  125477  Bordering on Romance  125480  125482  Apothecary Art  125525  125527  Mixed Bunch  125535  125537  Tea Shoppe  125545  125547  Mouthwatering  125675  125677  Loving Thoughts      125843  125845  Salon de thé  125934  125936  Etiquetas florales  --          125941          Art floral  125964  125966

Finally, many of you have asked for directions on how I made my First Communion favors from this post.  Here is a template that I create for myself.  Don't mind the funky color paper as I use whatever I don't need any more to create prototypes and templates and save the high quality card stock for the real thing. :)

Cut card stock to  3-1/2" x 8-1/2".  

Score 1/2" and 3" on the short side.  

Score 3-1/8", 3-5/8", 6-3/4" and 7-1/4" on the long side.  

Cut off the sides from the 8-1/2" end - up to the second scoreline.  

Cut and punch out the rest of the box as shown on the template.

The ribbon is 6" long.

You can get 3 boxes out of a sheet of card stock for this.  To mass produce, I cut off only 1/2" from the 11" side of the card stock, score my long sides and then cut up 3-1/2" for each box.  It saves times.  This is when the Simply Scoring Tool comes in very handy!  Have I told you how much I really love using it?  I LOVE IT!

Have a great day! Of course, have fun, too!
