011208_stampsFor those of you wondering, we will be offering up TWO sets this month!  The last few days I have shown you projects utilizing Out on a Limb.  Today I present you with Mixed Messages.  A whopping 42 sentiments for only $15 (this is a photo taken of the sentiments upside down!  I can’t give away ALL my secrets before the countdown is over, now can I?!?!!)  I designed this set to fill a niche in my personal collection, and I think it will be useful to all of you as well.  There have been SO many occasions where I wanted a small sentiment to use with specific punches.  Something understated and petite.  This set will come to the rescue each and every time!!!

011208_ladybug_wish_cardHere is a little project I whipped up using Little Lady.   Remember that set from WAY back when?  I am always so busy promoting new sets, I thought it would be fun to bring out a golden oldie.  I honestly forgot how FUN this set can be!  The ladybugs made it easy to bring together a quick & easy one layer card together.

011208_make_a_wish_closeupThe sentiment "make a wish, from the new Mixed Messages set, coordinates perfectly with the word window punch from SU!  I just stamped the sentiment on one end of the shape and trimmed a portion of the opposing end off.  I really like the subtle detail that it adds to the project.

011208_floral_fabulous_cardNext up is a project that brings back one of my favorite sets of all time, Beautiful Blooms.  I really like the way the pumpkin & olive pigment inks look on the Kraft cardstock.  Real earthy & stylish, all at the same time.

011208_fabulous_closeupThe sentiments in our new Mixed Messages set are a wonderful companion to those itty-bitty dies in the Nestabilities Collection.  This project used the smallest die in the LARGE Nestabilities Oval Collection.  These smaller dies make it so easy to pull together a real coordinated look.  And I also LOVE the phrase "Absolutely Fabulous".  I have a girlfriend in particular that I plan on sending this to!

I am anxious to hear what you come up with for uses & coordination when you receive your sets!  While playing around tonight I discovered that they also match our smallest Borders & Corners images, along with all the small tag dies designed for the Cuttlebug.   I am quite certain that you will find yourself using these miniature sentiments often!
