I am back with another The Cat's Pajamas Sneak Peek. All the new products will be made available for purchase as revealed throughout the week with the full release on March 26.
We are showcasing the new Travel Stickers stamp set along with the Mailbox CutUps today and I have two cards to share with you, both of them are on the masculine side. I don't know about you, but I never have enough masculine cards on hand.
First up features the adorable new Mailbox CutUps. It is the perfect size for cards and tags. I cut the mailbox from three different colors of cardstock, and then hinged the "door" with double sided tape on the back so I could over stuff the box with letters cut using the small envie die in the set. The cutout die was used on the card front base before attaching the completed collection box using a layer of craft foam. I used the Sending CutUps to cut out the word twice from mist cardstock, glued together for stability. The sentiment from new The Year of the Pig was stamped in pure poppy ink.
I made another masculine card by first cutting a rectangle from stone cardstock and then stamped two of the images from the Travel Stickers set using black ink. I then used the cutout die from the Mailbox CutUps set to create a frame around the stickers. Using the smallest die from the previously released Square Stamp CutUps, I cut once from white cardstock and and then again from stone cardstock. After stamping the sentiment from the Simply Said set onto a square, I stacked them together. The card base was cut from mist cardstock and then I added a strip of patterned paper. Before attaching the main image panel, I threaded twine twine the holes at the bottom, adhered the square stamp set and tied the twine around here. A couple of "letters" cut using a die from the Mailbox CutUps were added to the image panel as a final touch.
