PASSIONETTES SPRING MINI BLOG HOP

Hello there and welcome to our New Spring Mini Catalogue blog hop. I am so excited to take part in this hop along with a few members of my team all  showcasing gorgeous products coming in the New Year in the form of our NEW Spring Mini catalogue. And just as you would expect from Stampin’Up!  there are tons of pretties in there. So sit back relax and enjoy the lovely inspiration everyone has prepared.
To help you navigate I will post the previous and next links on the hop. You will have arrived to my blog from Val’s stunning blog, weren’t her projects just gorgeous? I love this lady’s work !! A hard act to follow for sure but I was excited to create something other than Christmas and this is what I ended up with.

There are quite a few stamp sets in the New Mini that I adore and had to have but by far this is my favourite. And you know I like it as I have been sneaking it onto everything I created for weeks now.Red heartI will give a complete list of products used at the end of this post but for now the dimensions of this sweet card.

Next was a sweet gift box made from two scallop envelopes.

The envelopes were cut on the Big Shot machine and the video at the end of this post will show you just how easy it is to put together.
And of course a gift box needs to house a gift and I am so excited about the new line of Simply Adorned.

Simply adorned is a new line of  jewellery perfect for every crafty person out there, the bevelled glass lockets can be customised to suit your mood and your outfits. The range contains chains, crystal charms,  and different sizes lockets. I just adore them and have been making many different inserts for my lockets I just can’t seem to stop, they are double sided and you can fit quite a lot inside them as you can see, I have quite a few layers and even a string of pearls in there, they are really great.
Ok here is the list of products used.
