Thankful For You!!!!

Why hello all!!! Welcome to Mrs. Lincoln's Inkin' and today's card share.  From now until the time of the new catalog launch I am going to try and use a product that is retiring and showcasing that item.  I don't think that will be hard seems how it seems everything is retiring.  But, I am excited to see all of the wonderful items that are going to be taking their place.

Today's card features some colors that are going to be retiring.  One of the colors is Baked Brown Sugar, which I used for the tree trunk. My card measures average size of 4 1/4" x 11" and then scored 5 1/2" and is using the Soft Sky card stock and then is layered with a piece of Whisper White and is cut at 4" x 5 1/4". I used the stamp set Sheltering Tree and then the Work of Art set for the image that represents the rainbow.  

The item that I am showcasing today is the Baked Brown Sugar.  I am going to be showing you a piece of card stock rather than the ink pad, I really wanted you to be able to see the color.

Don't forget to check out the updated Retiring List HERE.  Accessories are sure selling quick so don't wait too long to stock up.  To allow everyone a chance to get some of your favorite items you can order your favorite items at up to 50% off.  But, items will only be available until June 2nd and it's only while supplies last (on accessories), stamps will continue to be made until May 26th due to the high demand.

Sending Thoughts....

Hi all!! So, have you all had a chance to take a peek at the retiring list?  I still haven't made it through the whole thing yet.  It is quite the list!!

For today's share I am using a card using the Strawberry Slush card stock (an item that is on "the list", that is just what I am going to be calling it) and then topped with a piece of Sweet Taffy DSP (also on "the list"). My card card measures average size of 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4" and then the Sweet Taffy is cut at 4" x 5 1/4".  

For the vocal piece of my card I used a piece of Whisper White framed by a piece of Basic Black.  I used an image from the Gorgeous Grunge set with some Pool Party ink (stamped off so it would be a lighter color) and then topped with a strawberry slush image.  The item that I am showcasing today is the Sweet Taffy DSP.  I am going to try and showcase an item on the "the list" from now until you can't order them anymore... :(

 Don't forget to check out the updated Retiring List.  It is updated each day so that you know if an item is sold out or not.  I'll tell you right now, a lot of accessories are already sold out, so don't delay!!  To allow everyone a chance to get some of your favorite items you can order your favorite items at up to 50% off.  But, items will only be available until June 2nd and it's only while supplies last (on accessories), stamps will continue to be made until May 26th due to the high demand.

Pop Up Box Card

Hi friends.  Welcome to Mrs. Lincoln's Inkin' and today's project share.  Today's share is of a pop up box that also folds flat so that you can send it through the mail.

The project that is pictured above is using the Sea Street stamp set.  I used different size punches to punch out the images from the stamp set and then accented it with 2 banner's from the Banner Punch.

I made another one too that I wanted to share with you.  This one is a bit more "girly" and goes with a garden theme.  So, you have a masculine one and a girly one:)

  
For this one I used the Gold Sobree Specialty Paper. I love this paper!!!  And then used the Really Good Greetings stamp set.  I wanted to show you too how it folds flat.  The item that I am going to showcase today is going to be the Sea Street stamp set that I used in the first pictured project.

Secret Front Pocket Money Holder

Hi stampers.  Welcome to another share here at Mrs. Lincoln's Inkin'! Today's share is super cute and super fun to make.  From the front it looks as if it would be just a normal birthday card (a cute one at that I think) but then it is revealed that it is actually a....

Money holder!! OMG I love it!!! I just love the little 3" x 3" envelopes and figuring out more ways to use them than just normal envelopes.  Like I said, this is super simple to make, just adjust your layers for the front of your card the way that you want and then adhere your very top layer to the back of the flap of the envelope.

Well that is all for today folks.  Thanks for taking a minute to take a peek.  Until next time...

Frame Shaker Frame Card

Hi all.  It's another shaker card today.  They have been on the top of my making list lately it seems:)  Today is a frame card rather than a circle like I posted earlier this week.  With the frame it gives you more room for your greeting.

I used the On Film framelits and placed a greeting from the Feel Goods set.  I love the sayings from that set!! It is also the item that I am showcasing today...

For my filling I used some In-Color Sequence and placed them in on the image and then covered them with a Window Sheet.  Make sure to stock up on your In-Color Sequence since this is an item that will be retiring.  Now is the time too to order because...

Right now until April 10th there is free shipping on everything!!! There is no minimum order amount!! YAY!!!!

 The paper that i used with the Banner Punch sad to say was from the Sale-A-Bration catalog and is no longer available:(

Room Divider Card

Hi there everyone!  Today's share is of the Room Divider Card.  Some call it just "Divider Card" or "Panel Card" but it totally reminds me of one of those room dividers.... so that is what I have been calling it.  When you receipient opens up their envelope they will pull out the card they will see the front panel of their card... but when they open it up....

It opens up like a.... room divider:)  These I think would be fabulous for like a mini scrapbook or picture holder.  That is going to be what I use this design for next.  I will make sure to post some pictures of that when I have it finished.  The item that I am showcasing today that I used on today's project is the stamp set Too Kind.  It's a set that I love and use to use ALWAYS, but has been feeling a little neglected lately:(

Don't forget about the free shipping that SU! is offering right now!!!  Click Here to learn more!!  But don't forget that this awesome offer is only available until April 10th!! Hurry, hurry!!!!

Balloon Shaker Card

Hi there stampers.  Welcome to Mrs. Lincoln's Inkin'.  Today's share is a shaker card that I made using the Balloon Framelits. I love shaker cards.  Who doesn't love cards that move that they can play with, especially kids:)

This one is average size of 4 1/4" x 11" and then scored at 5 1/2", the base is Whisper White and then the color layer is Soft Sky... to represent the sky.  I wanted the card to have some dimension to it so for the grass I used Pear Pizzazz in two different sizes with rounded tops to look like hilltops.  I puffed the bottom one up to cause the dimension.  

For the shaker part of my card I used the Bermuda Bay Sequence Trim. I tore each piece off and placed them in the balloon which is backed with a piece of the DSP from the In Color Paper Pack.  The item that I am showcasing today is going to be the Celebrate Today stamp set along with the coordinating Balloon Framelits.

Well that is it for today.  Don't forget to take advantage of the AWESOME deal right now through Stampin' Up!

Right now you get free shipping on all orders!!!!! From today through April 10th.  Click HERE for more details.  Until next time friends...

Happy Spring!!!

Hello friends!!!  I hope you all had a wonderful Easter and time spent with family and friends.  Today was a fabulous Easter for us. We spent the day with family, eating good food, reflecting on what today truly is about, and then finishing it off with an Easter egg hunt!  The weather was warm and sunny, it was just all around a great day!!!

With the weather being soooo nice today I wanted to post a card that was about Spring... so nothing better for that then a Happy Spring card.  My card measures average size of 4 1/4" x 11" scored at 5 1/2" and is in the Melon Mambo card stock.  The stamp set that I used is Crazy About You with the coordinating coordinating Flower Madiallian punch.  That is the item that I am showcasing today.  It is a set and hope that it is not on the retire list that is released later this month.

Well that is all for today friends.  Thank you so much for stopping by!!! Until next time...

Happy Easter

Hello all, and HAPPY EASTER!!!!  I thought that I would post and share with you two Easter cards that I made... wanted to make sure that I got to share them before Easter was over.  The first card that I am sharing is the card that I made for my daughter, it's an Easel card.  Which I thought she would enjoy since it is a card that "moves".

Some of the items that are used on this card were from Sale-A-Bration, which has ended but nevertheless, I still wanted to share:)  The main stamp set however is from the Occasions Catalog and is available until June 1, 2015.  It is called For Peep's Sake... lol isn't that just the cutest name ever??? I love it!!

The second card is just a very clean and simple card using the stamp set (again from the Occasions Catalog) called Love is Kindness.

This card measures average size of 4 1/4" x 5 1/2".  Pretty simple, not much to it:)

Well, that is all for today... short and sweet.  Thanks so much for stopping by today and again, I hope that you all have a nice, safe and peaceful Easter!!
