Introducing 2011 Birthday, Big Birthday Wishes & Color Couture

January 13, 2011      Nichole Heady      926 Comments

The final day of the countdown has arrived and we have a BIG post prepared for you today to celebrate release night!  I LOVE tags.  REALLY, really LOVE tags!  They make it easy to dress up a plain gift bag or a simple wrapped package along with some luxurious ribbon.  They can even be applied to cards and scrapbooking layouts.  Sine birthdays are one of the single most "paper-crafted" events for stampers, myself and the rest of team have prepared a Birthday Tag Extravaganza, paired with some festive birthday cards that will leave you so inspired!

Before we get to the projects, let me share with you what products we are introducing this month to help make birthday tag creating and card making easier and more fun!

  Bithday-Tag-Designers

First is the new 2011 Birthday Tags stamp set.  A few of your favorite stamp designers contributed their own special tag creations to this set, making it versatile in style and appeal.  All of these tags coordinate with our Limitless Layers 1.75" Circle Die Collection, which will provide you with endless layering possibilities.

The details.

  • 2011 Birthday Tags will be available for sale on January 15th. 
  • I regret to announce that a small grammatical error was recently discovered in this set ("someone like you should be celebrated everyday", should read "every day").  We are delaying the release of this set so that we may have the opportunity to replace the image with a corrected version before making it available for sale. We are hoping to have the corrected sets available for sale sometime next week.  Thank you for your understanding and patience.
  • It will retail for $24.
  • 2011 Birthday Tags contains a total of 19 stamps (11 tags, 1 small cupcake, 5 sentiments, 1 "To" and 1 "From")
  • These tags coordinate with the Limitless Layers 1.75" Circle Die Collection.

Tag-Sale-3-die

To add to your layering possibilities, we have a new tag die coming this month.  Tag Sale #3 has a basic shape to it that is so popular right now, but it has the added detail of de-bossed dots around the perimeter.  A small hole reinforcement layer is also included to easily add a pop of color to the top of your finished tag.

The details.

  • The Tag Sale #3 die set will be available for sale on January 15th.
  • The set of two dies will retail for $8.
  • The tag die measures 2-1/4" x 3-3/4" while the hole reinforcement die measures 1" in diameter.

I have another set of dies to introduce to you that is probably my absolute FAVORITE thing from this release.  

By-the-Numbers-Dies

For years now I have been purchasing large patterned number stickers, glittered numbers, felt numbers and more to embellish my projects.  There is just something so graphic and "cool" about numbers in THE perfect font, don't you think?  So, for this month I designed the perfect set of numbers.  The size is just big enough to really pack some punch, but small enough that they can fit well on a card front with a little layering.

The details.

  • The By the Numbers Die Collection will be available for sale on January 15th.
  • The set of 9 dies will retail for $18.
  • The By the Numbers Collection has a little bit of thriftiness built in; the "6" can be flipped upside down and used a "9".
  • All of the numbers are individual dies and they average around1-1/2" x 1-3/4" each.

Now, after I designed these number dies, I said to myself "wouldn't it be SO cool to have BIG birthday sentiments that would work well with incorporating these BIG numbers into my projects!"… and Big Birthday Sentiments was born!

Big-Birthday-Wishes-samples
To help illustrate my vision for this new stamp set, I have included a graphic above that shows just SOME of the combinations you could come up with for the sentiments in this set.  There are scripty, handwritten number suffixes to help adapt the numbers to birthdays (or anniversaries!).  Sentiments appropriate for the young and old alike.  And don't  let me forget to mention that these sentiments would also work with any other number products that you might already have in your stash for even more versatility.

The details.

  • Big Birthday Wishes will be available for sale on January 15th.
  • It will retail for $24.
  • Big Birthday Wishes contains a total of 26 stamps (16 BIG sentiments, 6 small "helping" sentiments and 4 number suffixes)
  • Please note that this stamp set DOES NOT include numbers.  It was designed to coordinate with the new By the Numbers Die Collection, however, you can really mix and match it with any type of numbers you might already have in your stash; stamps, stickers or otherwise!
  • Big Birthday Wishes doesn't need to be limited to birthdays…several of the sentiments would also be appropriate for anniversaries too!

Dawn's headshot
Today marks the close of one of our most colorful product lines yet.  This month marks the last installment of the Color Couture Collection.  We are sad to see it end, but you know Dawn McVey has plenty of exciting things in store for you in the coming year!

January-Color-Couture

Let's not let that announcement damper our excitement for January's downloadable Color Couture addition!  A variety of printable patterned papers in Dawn's signature color schemes will be a valuable asset to you.  And the jumbo scalloped card templates she included this month are so amazing, you will love pairing them up with so many themes!

The details.

  • The January Color Couture download will be available for purchase on January 15th.
  • It will retail for $5.
  • The January Color Couture download consists of 3 printable card templates & 3 printable mat layer templates, 6 printable patterned papers and 3 Inspirational Inserts to add to your Color Couture Binder.

Now that all the formal introductions are out of the way, let's get to some projects!

34 Amazing Years Card
First a little looksy at how the new Big Birthday Wishes set pairs up with the By the Numbers dies!  Notice that I used one of Dawn's new January Color Couture Card Templates for the white base of my card!  It was really pretty easy to cut out and I just love the look of the finished project!  It's really nice to make a "non-square" card!

Stamping flourish
You'll notice towards the top of the card there was a fun little clear circle to help give the portion of the numbers sticking above the spine, just a little support.  I started by die-cutting our Clear Cardstock with the standard circle from the new Limitless Layers 2.5" Circle Die Collection.  I then stamped one of the flourishes from Embellishments stamp set using Black Noir Palette ink.

34 closeup
I stamped Simply Chartreuse cardstock with Polka Dot Basics using Fresh Snow.  I then die-cut the numbers appropriate for my recipient using the By the Numbers dies.  These were adhered to the clear circle.  To adhere the clear circle to the card base, I placed Scor-tape strategically behind the numbers.

Sentiment closeup

These beautiful sentiments come from Big Birthday Wishes.  I love how the sentiments are broken into pieces so that you can add color accents easily, as I did here.  I stamped "amazing years" in Summer Sunrise, followed by the second portion of the sentiment in True Black.  Don't you just love this sentiment?  It's one of my favorites!

Emboss detail

To create an accent frame, I ended up cutting a separate piece of white cardstock and "embossing" a frame using  my Scor-pal.  Two little black rhinestones accent the corners.

Down
I adore how this card turned out and can hardly wait to make more with this set and those number dies!

Eat Cake Tag closeup
Next, how about a little vintage-style tag?

Tag die
I started with a base of Vintage Cream cardstock cut with the new Tag Sale #3 die.  Notice the debossed dot border around the perimeter… LOVE this!

Cupcake closeup
I started my layering process for the focal point by first stamping the reverse polka-dot circle directly onto the tag using Spring Rain ink.  I then layered it with the "eat cake" sentiment using Enchanted Evening ink.  This wee little cupcake is also from the new 2011 Birthday Tags stamp set.  I stamped it with Vintage Cream ink onto a little Kraft cardstock tab.  A few lines of stitching on my sewing machine hold it into place.

Buttons closeup
For the borders at the bottom, I layered a piece of vintage book print from an old book, cut with our Small Scalloped Border die, into place.  Underneath that went the cream pom-pom trim, attached with Scor-tape.  Three buttons were stitched in place as a final accent.  I tucked a bit of Enchanted Evening "In Bloom" paper underneath the clear button for extra definition.

Eat Cake Tag
I love the unconventional layering of this sweet little tag and look forward to whipping up a batch to keep on hand for wrapping gifts!

Card duo
Next up, another play session with the By the Numbers dies…

Number dies
I used a few of the downloadable, printable papers that Dawn provides in her January Color Couture download.  I die cut the numbers 1-3, each from a different pattern.  After die-cutting, I noticed that the negative leftover the die-cutting was just as appealing as the actual die-cut shapes!  So I decided to use both the positive and negatives on some cards!

123 Blocks card

Here's the first one, lining those blocks up all in a row.

Side
A small rhinestone between each block as an added detail.

Sentiment closeup
Paired up with a sentiment from Big Birthday Wishes, heat embossed with Filigree White Embossing Powder.

Down
I die-cut some scallops with our Small Scalloped Border and added them above and below the numbered strip.

123 Circle Card
For the second card using the actual die-cut numbers, I decided to use a "cluster" formation on top of a white circle cut with the new Limitless Layers 2.5" Circle Die Collection.

Focal closeup
Here are the numbers all laid out for you.  Notice the small rhinestones here an there as accents.

Sentiment closeup
A sentiment closeup, heat embossed with White Filigree Embossing Powder

Down
Another fun card that ought to have lots of applications!!

The team has been hard at work creating some amazing birthday tags & cards as well.  Be sure to visit each of them and leave some love!  They have really put SO much into their work this month and I am so grateful to have their creativity as an ongoing inspiration resource!

The set of number dies with thos gorgeous sentiments is perfect!!! This can really just add that something extra to make someone shine receiving a card! Love it! Myfave project for today is the 1, 2, 3 cards with the cut numbers on one card and the ‘leftovers’ on the other card. Gives you a great idea of the possibilities, very very nice!!

    WOW this has to be THE BEST release EVER! I really cannot make up my mind on which item is my favourite although I think I’m leaning towards the number dies, they are going to be so versatile as they can be used on both cards and layouts.

    Thank you to the whole team for their design projects, everyone is a work of art!

For a long time I have been thinking of something more simpler for dates in a project other than always buying sticker packsot to mention that sticker packs have only limited quantity of numbers on them. But to have a die on hand that can give me an unlimited quantities how cool is that. Thank you Nichole for always thinking one step more.

Just thinking of the possibilities of what can be made with Big Birthday Wishes, By the Number dies, Limitless Layers 2.5″ dies, 2011 Birthday Tags and Tag Sale #3 is blowing me away.

    WOW. Big Birthday Wishes is a great set. I really love the size- it fills the cards which makes it easier for some of us who are still new to paper crating and have trouble designing the cards! And I’m also really excited about the new tag- I love the embossed border around it. It looks fabulous! Thanks as always for the amazing inspiration!

    I left this same message on Dawn’s blog – but I’ll say to you also — I’d LOVE to see the jumbo scallop in a die — but without the ‘edge’ guides. I’m more of a scrapbooker and I’ve been wanting a big soft scallop for page edges and this would be wonderful … but not with the edge guides for cards.

    Oh my! SO excited for the number dies especially. With 8 nieces and nephews who consider each and every birthday a milestone, it’s nice to have dies to make a card celebrating (and highlighting) each year with them!

    What an incredible display of eye candy!!! I love the Big Birthday Wishes and the Number Die cuts, they can cover so many ages and events other than birthdays. This post is so inspiring and uplifting, all the bright colors and sentiments are wonderful. Great job by you and your team for putting together such a fantastic release.

    I’m with you, Nichole. I’ve spent so much money over the years on stickers, chipboard, thickers, felt, etc in order to get the big, bold numbers on my projects. These dies are the best. And, wow, I can’t believe how inexpensive this set of dies is. I was bracing myself for it to cost way more. I also LOVE the Big Birthday Sentiments set. Perfect for sending BIG wishes to our card recipients.
