Free As A Bird Stamp Set from Stampin' Up!

Today's cards use the new Brid Ballad Suite from the upcoming 2019-2020 Stampin' Up! Catalog...and tomorrow is the big day when everyone can order from the new catalog!  This suite includes the Free as a Bird Stamp Set, , Stitched Nested Labels Dies, Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper, Bird Ballad Laser cut cards and tin, 3/8" Scalloped Lace Trim, and Bird Ballad Trinkets.  Take a look at the suie on pages 90-92 of your new catalog.  I couldn't wait to get my hands on this suite.  The papers look great as card accents, and many of the images are perfect for fussy cutting and adding as accent to your cards.  

       




The colors in these papers are perfect for Spring.  Scroll to the product listing below and click on the images for a closer look at each item in this suite.   
  


The basecard on today's card is Daffodil Delight.  Then a layer of Old Olive Cardstock.  Then a layer of one of the prints from the Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper. 

I used the Stitched Nested Label Dies an cut one in Old Olive, One in Daffodil Delight and one in Whisper White.  I stamped sentiments from the Free As A Brid Stamp Set on the Whisper White layer.   

  



I selected bids from one of the other prints in Bird Ballad Designer Series Paper Pack and fussy cut them to add as accents to the sentiment layer.  I also stamped the leaves from the Free As A Bird Stamp Set in Old Olive and fussy cut them before tucking them behind the sentiment layer.
  
Be sure to add the Bird Ballad Suite to your Shopping List to order as soon as the June 4 Ordering Window opens for the new catalog.  You'll want to be ready to order at 12:00 noon Mountain Time.  Set an alarm on your phone so your order is placed early in the queue, as this will be an extremely heavy day for stamping shoppers.  You can also request Two Day Shipping or overnight shipping to receive our order faster.

Get Ready for the New Catalog Release with the New Catalog Shopping List Download


Get ready to place your first order from the new catalog by downloading a copy of the new Shopping List.   You'll want to be ready to place your order as early as possible on June 4 to ensure you are in the ordering queue when the new catalog launches on June 4, at noon MT. 

While Stampin' Up! evaluates it inventory and ordering processes to ensure it can fulfill all orders, as Stampin' Up! has grown, its become harder to ensure popular items don't quickly sell out.  Remember the Butterfly Duet Punch?  And the Dies for Wonderful Romance?  Rather than waiting weeks for restocking of popular items, I recommend downloading this handy Shopping List which includes an index to key sections of the new catalog, and jumpin' online as soon as the new catalog ordering begins, to ensure you're able to order everything on your Shopping List without disappointing delays.  One change I've found really useful in this year's catalog is a section towards the front of the catalog listing all of the bundles in one place. 

If you're looking for savings and a way to earn the most shopping rewards with your orders of $150+ (not including shipping and tax), bundles are a great way to maximize your purchases.  You save 10% when ordering a coordinating Stamp Set and Dies or Punches together as a bundle.
