Sneaky Peek Week Begins!


Today is the first day of Sneaky Peeks for the upcoming release from The Cat's Pajamas!  On Tuesday, March 17, TCP will be releasing 5 fabulous new stamp sets,4 new CutUps dies, and 2 new Cutables cut files.

Good Friends Are Like Stars Diamond Fold card-designed by Lori Tecler/Inking Aloud-stamps, dies, and cut file from The Cat's Pajamas

Today's peek is the first look at the new Space Cadet set.  I combined the set with one of the new Cutable files, the Diamond Fold.  I used my Silhouette to cut the base of the card from teal cardstock, then cut the mats from some star patterned paper to go with the set's space theme.  I have an older version of the Silhouette, but it was pretty easy to resize the file to work with my machine's parameters.  After assembling the base and mats, I added the telescope-peering penguin front and center, using foam tape for dimension.  To add some sparkle, I surrounded the image with glittery silver stars cut with the CutUps 3x3 Stars and Bitty Banners dies.

I stamped the set's classic friendship sentiment on a pale yellow panel.  It's adhered to back of the card, on the opposite side of the image panel so that it will be revealed when the card is fully opened.

As always, we have lots of fun planned for the week leading up to the big release.  Want a chance to win a set from the new release before you can buy it?  Stop by our In It to Win It thread in the TCP member company forum on Splitcoaststampers.  You can chat with the Cat Pack and other TCP fans and one lucky commenter will be selected each day to win a set from the new release.  Don't miss out on the fun--and the chance to win, too!
