Don't you just love summer? When the outside & inside seamlessly merge together with fresh-cut flowers from the garden. Especially sweet hydrangeas…
Warm summer nights spent catching fireflies under a starry sky…
Sipping cool lemonade in the shade of your favorite old oak tree…
Michelle Wooderson has captured the essence of summer in a jar with her sketches that helps to develop the concept for Friendship Jar Summer Fillers.
Friendship Jar Summer Fillers is full of all kinds of things that pay homage to summer…sea shells to strawberries, cold fruity drinks to bouquets of summer hydrangeas. Most exciting though are two new additions that have coordinating dies…
A new shorter pint jar…
and a pretty bow that is perfect for paper piecing! And the best part? These new additions can be mixed and matched with all of the previously released jar sets as well!
The details.
- Friendship Jar Summer Fillers will be available for sale on July 15th.
- It will retail for $24.
- Friendship Jar Summer Fillers contains a total of 25 images (1 pint jar, 1 american flag duo, 1 hydrangea bouquet, 1 bow, 1 strawberry filler, 1 single strawberry, 1 seashell trio, 1 sand bottom filler, 1 drink umbrella, 1 drinking straw, 1 set of drink drips, 1 dotted trail, 1 ant, 1 firefly and 12 sentiments)
- The new pint jar measures 2" tall and remains the same width as the larger jar, which is 1-3/4" wide.
- Coordinating dies for both the Pint Jar & Jar Ribbon will be available for sale separately. The Pint Jar die will retail for $4, while the Jar Ribbon die will retail for $4 as well.
If you looked at Michelle's sketches carefully, you might have noticed the concept of new label shapes & dies to coordinate with the jar, with the possibility of a separate set being designed to go along with them. Little Labels along with the new Jar Labels 2 die bring Michelle's concept to life!
The details.
- Little Labels stamp set will be available for purchase on July 15th.
- It will retail for $15.
- Little Labels contains a total of 16 images (3 solid outline frames, 3 dotted outline frames and 10 sentiments)
- A coordinating die will be available for purchase separately and retail for $6. Each label measures 1-1/4" wide and 7/8" tall.
In addition to the jar additions this month, we also have a brand-new EXCITING, innovative product line that we are absolutely thrilled to introduce to you! It's called the Half & Half collection! I have found myself often wanting a decorative "strip" on my projects while stamping…something that would look similar to one of our Mat Stacks cut in half…but I needed more length! This is how the Half & Half concept was born, essentially "half" a shape and half a strip! With the stamps, you can add that type of detail onto a one-layer card. With the dies, you can use patterned paper, cardstock vellum or whatever else you wish!
In the Half & Half stamp set, each patterned strip has two brackets that coordinate perfectly with the end of it, one solid & bold the other delicate and flourished. These strips can be used vertically or horizontally. There's also a few fun sentiments thrown in for good measure!
The details.
- Half & Half will be available for sale on July 15th.
- It will retail for $24.
- Half & Half contains a total of 14 images (3 extra-large patterned strips, 3 solid brackets, 3 flourished brackets and 5 sentiments).
- The decorative strips in the stamp set measures 1-7/8" wide and 3-1/8" long.
- A set of three coordinating dies will be available for sale separately, retailing for $20. The dies measure approximately 1-7/8" x 5-1/2" each, a nice large size that will make a BIG impact on your projects! Since the dies are open-ended on one end, they can be used to make strips as long as you like. You can even flip the die around and cut the opposite end of the strip for more options!
Now, let's get onto some fun projects using these great new sets!
I always associate summer with yellows and oranges, so I decided to go in that direction with my first project.
I heat embossed the hydrangeas & pint jar with White Filigree Embossing Powder onto Fine Linen cardstock. I then colored the hydrangeas in with Summer Sunrise & Ripe Avocado Copic Trios, with a little T1 thrown in for good measure. Finally, I stamped the Background Basics: Newsprint set down the length of the focal point with VersaMark ink.
To create the strip. I die-cut white cardstock with one of the Half & Half dies and then stamped it with the coordinating image from the stamp set using Summer Sunrise ink. ****sigh*** Can I just tell you how in LOVE I am with this line? I have wanted something like this forever, and it is such a joy to not only see it come to fruition, but to get to use it!!! So pretty!
I also added the multi-stripe image from Background Basics: Retro down the center of the strip in Orange Zest. The decorative strip provided the perfect place for my little jar label. I die-cut white cardstock with the new Jar Labels 2 and stamped the frame from Little Labels in Orange Zest. I then added the sentiment (also from Little Labels) in Ripe Avocado.
A simple card & layout, but I love the air of peacefulness and sunny days that it alludes to!
Another thing I love about the Half & Half series is how well it works for envelope embellishments. For the envelope I created to coordinate with this hydrangea card, I opened the envelope up so the flap was out flat and put a scrap of A2 sized cardstock inside so I had a nice flat stamping surface to work with. I then stamped the decorative strip on the front of the envelope, lining the straight edge with the crease in the envelope flap.
I then flipped the stamp around, re-inked, and stamped the envelope flap, lining the straight edge up at the fold with the previous impression. They line up easily and perfectly!
Because the slight "overlap" is on the fold of the flap, you can hardly even notice at all!
One of our forum members, *suzanne*, recently started a discussion about using the Edgers dies on envelope flaps. I thought this was so intriguing and had never thought to do this before, so I figured now was a good time to try it out. I pulled out Edgers #3, and let me tell you, it works BEAUTIFULLY! It was almost as if it was designed for this purpose. And the best part? Edgers #3 in particular works perfectly with the decorative strip width from Half & Half. The strips are exactly as wide as the biggest center scallop. *I can hardly contain my excitement over these discoveries!*
I added the stripes from Background Basics: Retro (just like the card) in Orange Zest and then die-cut an Angled Label from our label paper and stamped it with the coordinating stamp from Label Basics. This provides the perfect place to add the address or name of your recipient!
The finished ensemble is nothing short of irresistible! And I bet you can guess what I will be doing to nearly ALL of my envelopes from now on! Thank you for the inspiration *suzanne*!!!
Next, a fun strawberry card! I just LOVE strawberries, juicy and plump right off the vine and it was so fun creating a little version of that summer happiness with paper!
I die-cut a strip with one of the Half & Half dies from white cardstock and stamped the full-size jar (from the original Friendship Jar set) in Black Noir. I added the strawberries filler from Friendship Jar Summer Fillers as well as die-cut the lid and stamp it. The strawberries were colored with Pure Poppy & Ripe Avocado Copic Trios. I created a vellum strip, to which I added one of the smaller sentiments from Half & Half and scored it to fold up like a dimensional banner.
Each end of the vellum strip is embellished with Pure Poppy buttons tied with Pure Poppy Baker's Twine.
the background was stamped with the previously released set Delightful Doilies is Ripe Avocado onto Spring Moss cardstock. I love how dainty and homespun this looks!
A perfectly cheery card to wish someone a happy summer birthday!
My last card uses one of my favorite new color schemes, Hawaiian Shores & New Leaf, as well as showcase yet another fun way to use the new Half & Half dies.
As I mentioned earlier, the Half & Half dies are very versatile since one end is open, allowing you to make strips however long you would like. Here, I have shown how I die-cut the strip once and it is still attached to the original cardstock block.
By flipping the die around and aligning it with your original side cuts, you can add a decorative edge to BOTH ends. This opens up all kinds of amazing design opportunities!
I decided to create some scores in mine to turn it into a dimensional banner. The focal pint was die-cut with Fillable Frames #8 and stamped with one of my favorite sentiments from Half & Half. I also added some flourished brackets in New Leaf ink.
The strip was stamped with Embellishments in Fresh Snow and I added a little sparkle to the sides of the label with rhinestones.
I love the dimension that this technique added to my project and am already dreaming about all the other things I can achieve!
Now that I've shown you a few of my creations using Half & Half, let me show you the amazing things the team has created with this set!

I’m absolutely loving the Half and Half set… and the jars of course! You girls knock it out of the park every single time, and I can’t wait to see what else you have up your sleeve! Thanks for sharing!!!
I’m truly amazed at all the projects you created. Half & Half is truly versatile. Definitely checking it out.
Holy Moly! I am so sunk this month. The first time I have ever wanted it all! The projects are all awesome!
Those strawberries look delish! Loving the Half and Half idea!!
Oh! I love the half & half dies. Yippee!
Oh my Nichole … I want EVERYTHING. This is a wonderful blog post and I really dig the half & half dies. The versatility!!! Thanks for always staying so fresh & creative (and as usual lately, pairing with some older sets … NEED the lotto (grin))
Amazing! Love it all!! Little labels and that Half and Half set is genius! So thrilled about it – the dies, the great patterns in the stamps – the sayings…perfection! Way to go PTI!!
This half-pint jar is so adorable – and I love the summer fillers. The new labels are awesome (I have the original one so I’m glad there are more options now).
The Half-and-Half is such an awesome concept – so much potential. I’m really looking forward to using those. I only wish the pattern stamps were longer (as I wish for all background stamps).
I have to agree with Linda S and Karen, I want it all! The addition to the Friendship Jar line are the best yet, and I thought the same thing about the Spring Fillers! And Half and Half will get so much use! I love it all! (heart palpitations)
Sold! Half & Half is by far one of your best creations ever. I. am. in. love. And thank you for having it in group post night… now I can swoon over and over again 🙂
Can’t wait for it all to come to live with me!!
I think this is one of the most diverse set I’ve seen so far! I’m thinking about using the half & half dies as closure flaps for handmade books and the jar embossed on the front with the word “ideas” on the small rectagular ticket shaped label. Keep those inspirational dies coming. Love it.
Oh VERY cool! I love the open ended design on the half and half!
The pint jars (and accessories :))are cute too! TFS
Oh I am so in love with it all! I love all the jars, the cards are beautiful. I can think of a zillion things to do with the Half and Half dies, and stamps. Book marks, belly bands for boxes, and envelopes, scrapbook pages, cards, jar and can wraps, with card stock, fabric, and felt, pendants, gift tags, the list goes on! A great addition for one’s collection!
Innovative is right! What wonderful designs!
Oh my! Thats all I can say 🙂 These projects are amazing! I love the pint jar addition to the friendship jar series and all the fillers … wonderful!!
Real dangerous post, Nichole! I loved every part of it! Ouch! 🙂 Beautiful!
I love the Half and Half die collection and can’t wait to get my hands on it!
Truly amazing cards again today. I wasn’t sure what to make of the Half & Half, but now that I’ve seen it in action both here and on the other blogs – wow! Really love the different looks you can get with that.
Oh wow! Nichole!!!! These are simply amazing. Just amazing!!!!
Wow – what a prize package!!! I’m most excited about half & half – they look like such classy additions to any project, and I love the sentiments. I like how one stamp set can be used for an entire card, and bookmarks, and packaging & all sorts of things. Am looking forward to adding it to my collection.
I love this set. I have some of the jar filler sets. Love love love!
WOW, everything looks so amazing!!! I can not wait to try out the new Half and Half set. That is a must have for sure!! And the jars are so, so cute! Love all the new images and the fun pint sized jar!! Love all the projects too, PTI has really done an amazing job!
Brilliant! I love the half & half set. The half-pint jars are a must have too and I’m looking forward to seeing the fillers. PTI continues to amaze me with each and every release.
I’m so excited about Summer Fillers! I cant wait to see the full reveal..
Those Half and Half dies look awesome. I am going to be standing in line(virtually of course) for those on the 15th!
Nichole–everything looks just amazing! Love the Friendship Jar Summer fillers, the new labels, and the Half and Half set! Your cards were just fabulous, what great stamp sets!
Chris L.
Oh wow!! This set is wonderful!! How fun and creative!! Leave it to you to come up with something so fresth & new!! LOVE it!!
I was doing so well keeping to my budget for the first few countdown days. Then today, and sheesh, the budget is shot! Love the new friendship jar fillers set and coordinating dies. The half & half dies look intriguing as well. So much crafty goodness just waiting for us all 🙂
I am thrilled with the additions to the Friendship Jar line up! That squatty jar is just adorable! And I am so excited for the fireflies and ants… I have been wanting bugs for the jars from the beginning. Can’t wait to order! 🙂
That little jar is too darn cute! There’s a lot to process tonight – thanks for all the great ideas 🙂
Lovely projects!
The Half & Half collection is SO cool! I didn’t really “get” it at the beginning of your post, but your projects (and the rest of the team’s projects) really brought it to life! This countdown gets better each day!
Simply amazing!!! Totally loving how everyone shows off these little beauties. 🙂

I wasn’t sure what to think with the sneak peek image, but your projects today have convinced me this is a must have set. I love that it’s so versatile. I am continually amazed at how you set the standard with all of your innovative products. The design of the sentiments that come with this set are so elegant. The Friendship Jar Summer Fillers and new dies look like great additions to the Friendship Jar line-up (which I’m slowly but surely adding to my collection.)
I am so happy to have another Friendship Jar set. I love the smaller jar and the ribbon die. I can ‘t wait to see all the stamps in this set! I am excited about the little labels, too!
I’m in love with all of them! I’ve been saving up for all the friendship fillers, now for some great summer ones. You guys ROCK.
Jannette
I loved all the cards I saw tonight. I am impressed with the versatility of Half and Half. I see that as a set that never needs to leave my table, as it can find a place within so many cards.
Love the Half and Half stamps and the dies! The pint jar is so cute….really love it!
Thanks for the wonderful DT inspirations! can’t wait for the full reveal.
This is my favourite post so far. Love the summer jar fillers (but so sad to see this is the last instalment) and half and half looks awesome too. So excited just thinking of all the options for cards and layouts. Had a frustrating day at work but all this has really cheered me up 🙂
Amazing creativity and talent on show from all the DT. Nichole the Half & Half Line looks incredibly fun and versatile and I can’t wait to play with it!!
All the cards and projects tonight are AMAZING! WOW! I thought what can you do with a long tag? Well, now I SEE! The Half and Half line is brillant! The possibilites are endless! WOW! Oh, I am repeating myself but I can’t help it! 🙂
Wow, such a fun concept!! I love these!! fun, fun, fun 🙂
I am more excited about this Half & Half set & dies than I have been about anything else and I was pretty darn excited about the Mat Stacks!!! Also waiting in anticipation to see what the “Triangles” are all about. I have a pretty good feeling it will be another must have. This has been the best release month ever! It sure would be a great time to win the release night contest for the I want it all package!!!!
And this was going to be my NO shopping month because I’m flying in to attend the Stamp A Faire. HAH! The Half and Half stamps and dies are on the the top of my growing list. I think they will be one of the most versatile sets ever. I can’t remember the last time I let a naked envelope leave my mailbox. Another great ‘must have’ release!
Wow! Love the new Half and Half dies and stamps! Cannot wait to get those!!!!
OMG the half pint jar is adorable! The strawberries and hydrangea stamps are just fabulous. And leave it to PTI to come up with new innovative ideas. =) The half & half looks really fun to work with. Can’t wait to see all the sets in full.
Gorgeous new products and projects, I love them all!!
Another home run with the adorable Friendship Jar series! The strawberries are simply delicious! And I love the versatility of the other sets, Half & Half and Little Labels. It will be nice to have some variety to the labels for my cute jars!
I l.o.v.e LOVE! The half and half collection! What a great idea. The rest of the dies and stamps look pretty fab, too!
OMG, I thought the full size jars were adorable – the pint ones are too cute. And great idea with those half and half dies!
I LOVE my Jar sets and was really looking forward to summer fillers…. and they haven’t disappointed. And to have a mini jar too is just the icing on the cake, making all the other sets even more versatile. Thoses strawberries are just PERFECT for my summer preserving. And when I saw the jar fit the half and half die… well that just tips me over the edge for ordering EVERYTHING this month!
I am absolutely loving the Half and Half stamp and die set!! You and your team are really creative! Thanks for all this!
Gosh, Nichole, this new set is a true invention!!! I love the ideas you showed us and I have soooo many other ideas in mind, it’s gorgeous!! By the way, combining with that edger die for the envelope is truly an amazing idea from Susanne! No more boring envelopes for me! Once I receive my Half & half stamps andthe edger die, I’m off and surprise my friends with these beauties!! Love it!! I do have more ideas with these new half & half stamps and dies. I’m most looking forward to making bookmarks! I loooove books and I love giving away books and these make perfect bookmarks for the a bit more bigger books!! Love it! And also for gift wrapping, lengthen them a little and then fold them around a package, not completely closed, but then the decorative ends a bit away from each other and stamp or write the name in between with some decoration. Will look awesome, I think and I already know the look of my christmas presents this year, wihoe!!! Awesome new things, this month, Nichole!! And wow, what an amazing prize set today!! The entire jar filler collection, plus these new beauties! I’ve been thinking about the jar fillers, love them, but my basket was too filled already every time, hi hi, so I took them out…. But how amazing it would be to win them all! Thanks for the chance and I will go hopping around now, already so curious what the other ladies created!!!!
Wishing you a lovely day!
Hugs, Wendy
Amazing samples…love it all today!
LOVE that hydrangea card and envelope! All these products are amazing! I’m especially loving the sentiments from Half and Half–can’t wait to see that full set. I would be so thrilled to win this prize–thanks for the chance!
Oh my Gravy! I am going to have to have the Half & Half set – that is just plain amazing! Love love love the images that come in the summer jar filler set! wow, what a concept.
So much beauty I can hardly stand it!!! Love this set. I think I’m going to have to order ALL of the friendship jar soon!!!
OMG the half and half set is fabulous and I love what the whole DT have done with it. Please, please, please hold some stock back thefor 23rd July event when my order will be going in!!!!!!!
Nichole and DT girls, do you ever sleep? I mean seriously. You guys just put on an awesome job that showcased your talents, creativity and passion. Heck if I had to do your job (which I would like to do someday in the future), I don’t think I’d be able to sleep with all the PTI goodies surrounding me. Hehe
Gratz again for yet another successful release! ^_^
Btw, is there any way that PTI might offer stamps in cello or any less bulky packaging? I’m hoping you will in the near future as shipping costs are such a deterrent for us who live outside the US. ^_^
The Half and Half concept is brilliant and so versatile! I love the new pint jar and summer jar fillers. What a great release!
I love and want the half and half collection. All the projects are fabulous as always! I especially love the strawberry card and everything that Betsy creates….
Oh my! I would love to have all of these things. I must have the Friendship Filler set because I have all of the other ones and I love the little pint jar. Gorgeous samples.
Half and Half! Oh my gosh I am in love. This set looks so versatile, and the open ended dies! Yikes I’ll be spending a lot this month! 🙂
Half and half is insanely genius! I CAN NOT WAIT to get my hands on it. And the new additions to the Friendship jar line…. LOVE them. The little labels are a definite must-have, so versatile and a great multi-purpose addition to my stamp collection!
Such great project! the half and half dies looks so versatile, can’t wait to see the full release in two days. Efrat.
Oh how wonderful! The summer fillers and little half pint jar are fantastic. I am really excited about the many possibilities for half & half, too. The creative goodness just keeps coming!!
I’m not even sure where to begin – it is all fabulous! If I had to pick a favorite, it would be the Half & Half Collection. But the Little Labels is close behind and the new Friendship Jar Summer Fillers are perfect for the season!
Oh goodness! I absolutely love everything, but my favorite today are the half & half dies…perfection!
Once again I am excited by all the new products! The smaller jar is too cute and I am liking all the samples with the new dies…so much creativity…so much versatility!!!
Oh am loving these sets!! The strawberries are so cute and I love the new longer tags!!
I’m blown away with the hald and half dies! This is so awesome. Great projects again. Already love all new products!
Eveline.

Half & Half is absolutely brilliant! Such a wonderful concept! Looking forward to all of the possibilities this opens up!
I am so excited! Amazing! The Half and Half dies are perfect for scrapbooks. I can think of tons of ways to use them to add a little more flare to some pages. And the newest jar set is fabulous. I am so excited to have two sizes of jars. Putting more jars on the front of a card or scrapbook page just got so much more interesting and exciting. Love it all!
Love this die! It is really very versatile as the design team showed.
Wow! Wow! Wow! I love Half and Half! What a fun and unique set! My mind is spinning with ideas for those dies and sets!
My head is just spinning with all the ideas! What a wonderful concept! You’ve done it again, Nichole!

I was truly sorry to get to the end of the group post today! So much incredible inspiration. I had my notebook right beside me! I’ve always been a huge fan of the Friendship Jar series so I knew it would be on the top of my list this month. Half and Half just jumped right up there with it after seeing all the fabulous cards and projects the DT (and you) created!
Love these new sets and the dies! The projects are so adorable! Cannot wait to get my hands on them!
Both these sets are coming home with me! I love the jars and fillers and cannot wait to add the tiny jar to my collection. And Half and Half is brilliant! What an awesome release!!
What an amazing idea with the Half & Half collection! I love the idea of making strips as long as I want with a beautiful decorative edge. This month’s color combinations are inspiration as well for me to try some that are out of my comfort zone. Loving everything this release!
I love the strawberries in the small jar! So vibrant-looking! And those half-and-half dies look like they could make great bookmarks.
I love the thought and attention to detail that has goen into these sets. Amazing. Lesley
I am so glad to see a Hydrangea set from PTI! They are my all time favorite flower and this will be my favorite stamp for sure! Gorgeous projects!
My favorite is the Half & Half Dies. It’s so versitile. Can’t wait to try them out along with the stamps to match.
The half and half dies and stamp set are a genius concept. One to return to time and again and use in so many different ways. Outstanding samples from you and all the team today!
Penny H

I have to have them! I have all the other jar fillers. These are awesome!
I was on the fence about Half and Half until today. When you showed it on the envelope it reminded me of the wrap sticker address labels from a few months back…And all I could think of was “How cool will it be to do that with the dies!” The squatty jar is adorable and living in FL, I can’t wait to use the shells in the jars…Thanks again for being a constant source of inspiration to us all.
SO Nice! Love your designs!
Your new dies just keep getting better and better! So innovative 🙂 Great group post today as well…The DT rocks!

The half and half set and dies is just fantastic. A definite must have. Everyone’s projects this month are wonderful. Can’t wait for the 15th.
my head is reeling from all the designers samples with the half and half dies and stamp set! i like the look of the extended label coming to the edge of the card or page and being able to extend it around to the back of the card – so many possibilities! looking forward to the 15th when i can see everything and put in my order.
Absolutely adorable! I’m really impressed with the Half & Half collection. And that envelope idea is just awesome.
Awesome! I can’t wait to get my little fingers on those dies and stamp sets! How fun!
I love how you combine new must haves with older favorites. The first card is going to be my first case. And to think I was going to try and hold off ordering until the 23rd. HA! No chance of that now. LOL
This release is passed inspiration and into genius. The amazing versatility will make these tools and stamps a necessity for me.
It’s simply amazing to see the fabulous creations that you and your design team make each month! I wish I could have them all!!

I don’t own Embellishments yet, but I think you just sold it to me with your card today. And I still don’t have any of the Friendship Jar series, so I’d be the perfect person to draw for the prize!

I have coveted,craved and desired the “Friendship Jar Series” since it first came out!! Now I believe it is time to bring my obsession of this series home to my house. It reminds me of summers when I was a kid and my sister and I would help my mom with the canning from our vegetable garden and fruit trees.
Love, love, love it all! I have every set of the friendship jar fillers and can’t wait to try the smaller jar. So cute! And the half and half dies? Genius!!

One of my favorite things about PTI is your innovation. The Half and Half dies and stamp set just proves it once again! I just LOVE this idea and cannot wait to create with it myself! Great job Nichole and team!
What an awesome set of stamps you showed today! I was thinking that I didn’t really need a sentiment strip set, but I love how versatile it is and its fabulous that the jar fits so perfectly on it! I often have trouble filling my cards and I think this will be a great way to add a big piece to the front. I also love the patterns you showed- just great!

This is on my “gotta have” list! I love love love love love LOVE it!!!!
I love the new jar fillers for summer. The smaller jar will be perfect for putting on homemade canned items. The half and half set and dies are awesome. Pure creative genius.

Honestly, I can probably “cut and paste” my comment from every other new release and that would be “I want it all!”. All these new creations, beautifully showcasing the upcoming product, makes me want to hide out in my craftroom for days on end, creating from the inspiring ideas of all these talented ladies. Awesome new “stuff”…
I love everything! It is so hard to chose! My favorite is the Half & Half & the jar. I’m gonna be purchasing the original jars set too. I’m impatiently waiting on this virtual line. He he he!

I’ve been collector of all the friendship jar sets so I love the Summer Fillers and new dies….but I am OVER THE MOON about Half & Half (dies and stamps). Wow – my mind is racing with possibilities of creative touches on cards, book marks, scrapbook page accents…I think the shape would even make a nice decorative accent on the lightswitch faceplate in my craft room (cut with vinyl and then adhered to the faceplate). My mind is swimming with thoughts about this!

I love the summer colors you put together. I bet the whole is marvelous. Also, the Half and Half dies add a nice finished touch.
okay, the half & half collection is really cool! my only query is, what machine do you use to diecut the shape? i own a sizzix big shot, and i’m hoping that will work. i’ve followed your posts for years, but i don’t think this question has ever really been thoroughly addressed.
i’d like to use those dies to make bookmarks with a magnet at the bottom. fold it over your page, and it’s marked!
I’ve loved Friendship Jars from the beginning and all the fillers you have added along the way. This new one is spectacular. The Half & Half is answered prayers! Can’t wait to see the reveal of the whole set.
Love the new dies!
I’m so excited for the half and half set and the little labels! I absolutely cannot wait for the 15th – it’s gonna be a bank breaker! =)
