Hello Everyone,
Whew! What a week! So far we have caught 3 skunks and have been skunked out by the fourth one but we have not found or caught it yet. It has been very interesting learning how to deal with the animals and smell. Skunks have the ability to spray from just a few weeks old, however their aim and ability to secrete the substance is still maturing. Around three months old the skunk’s generally are old enough to have control over their aim and secretion. So no matter if they are cute and little looking they are still old enough to spray. We believe there is only one baby left but we think that the baby well juvenile was able to get out from underneath the house. My dog is no longer tearing at carpet or at vents so we think that the animal has moved on. So hopefully no more sknunked out Facebook Lives!
I am so excited to share with you that the new Stampin Cut & Emboss Standard machine is available on September 1st, 2020!
Today’s Project
This suite is so nice to have on hand year round. The sentiments are perfect for multiple occasions and the dies are are any crafter’s must have!

If you are looking for card inspiration, turn to the catalog! There are tons of cool and hands on projects that take you can whip up in no time.
In today’s video I show you how to case a card from the catalog. I am casing the Blushing Bride card from the image above.
How adorable are these treat bags? They are also really easy to reproduce. For the large cellophane bag I used the new Stampin Cut machine to die cut the largest die out of the designer series paper before using a layering die to cut out the vellum. Next I stamped the greenery image in Shaded Spruce before layering the two pieces together and adhering onto the bag. I stamped the sentiment in Cherry Cobbler ink on a thin piece of card stock before adding a bow and embellishments.
Here is a pre-recorded Facebook Live video tutorial
