Simply Scored Diagonal Plate (#125586)
“Do you ever feel guilty about covering up one of the designs on our beautiful double-sided Designer Series Paper? If so, you are not alone, it’s something I hear a lot! Well, we’ve scored the perfect answer for this particular dilemma – the Diagonal Plate for the Simply Scored Scoring Tool! With the Diagonal Plate, it is a snap to create envelopes, boxes, fancy folds, and embossed backgrounds. When you use the Diagonal Plate to make boxes and envelopes from our fantastic variety of coordinating double-sided Designer Series Paper, you take full advantage by showing both sides of the paper! No more guilt! You’ll love how this inexpensive add-on for the Simple Scored fits 12” x 12” paper, works with the full rulers across the top and down the left side of the Simply Scored, and has grooves for scoring at every 1/8”. Plus, the Diagonal Plate comes with handy instructions and measurements for creating four popular sizes of envelopes, making it simple for you! The Diagonal Plate just made our already popular Simply Scored an even bigger hit! You need to get your hands on this amazing tool and say goodbye to the trauma and guilt of using only one side of the Designer Series Papers!”
Tip:
Be sure you have Sticky Strip on hand since you’ll find making boxes and 3-D projects so much easier!

In Color Stampin’ Write Markers (assorted)
“You’ve seen the hottest color trends in your favorite clothing stores, but did you know there is a science to color trends? It’s true! Stampin’ Up! does extensive research, trend analysis, and interviews with demonstrators to create “In Color Mood Boards”. These Mood Boards serve as a visual introduction of the color so even more research can be done. Once the In Colors are selected, the development team takes the Mood Boards to the paper mill so the In Color card stock, and eventually lots of other coordinating products that we all love, can be made. That’s a lot of work behind something that appears as simple as a marker! Many customers get thrilled when new In Colors are introduced each year. They like having fresh, new colors to work with. Other customers like their tried and true favorites in the Color Collections. If you want to dip your toes into new trends, Stampin’ Write Markers are great way to start using the In Colors without a huge investment. Each year, a new set of 5 In Colors are introduced and those colors stay around for 2 years. So, when you buy a set of In Color Markers, you get 5 colors that you’ll be able to get coordinating card stock, ribbon, and more for two years. That makes taking a dip on the trendy side an easy choice. Stampin’ Write Markers are great for coloring images, coloring directly onto stamps, journaling, and more! Over 50 different ways of "more", in fact! With that many marker techniques, you’ll have plenty of ways to use your new In Color Stampin’ Write Markers, so order your markers today and dive into the world of In Colors!”
Tip:
When coloring stamps with Stampin’ Write Markers, work from the lightest color to the darkest color.

1/2” Seam Binding Ribbon (assorted)
“Have you noticed how popular vintage style is in fashion and crafting? It’s all over the place! My customers tell me they love using our beautiful 1/2" Seam Binding Ribbon to add vintage details like frayed, pleated, and ruched (gathered) ribbon to their cards, scrapbook pages, and décor items. If you are into vintage style, I think you’ll love the results that you get with Seam Binding. Since it comes in a variety of colors and has a super light and flexible texture, you can do a lot without adding too much bulk. One of the things that makes the Seam Binding so much fun to craft with is that it has a loose weave that frays well. You can easily create frayed ribbon ends on your projects or pull the threads to quickly create rich looking ruched ribbon to add to your projects. Order your Seam Binding ribbon in the hottest colors like Daffodil Delight, Cherry Cobbler, Baja Breeze, and Crumb Cake and start creating some vintage style today!”
Tip:
Create ruched ribbon accents by pulling a thread at the center of the ribbon to make the ribbon gather.
