New First Edition Paper Pad


My second blog post this weekend is dedicated to the brand-new First Edition paper pad 'It's a Boy!'. The pad contains not only papers for male new arrivals, but also some that are suitable for a first birthday. The floral and bird papers could also be used for completely different occasions.

This new pad even contains a sheet of stickers. which is perfect for beginners, cards that have to mad in a hurry or for those days when the desired die or stamp just seems to hide in a secret corner. The pad also come swith some sheets full of tags, which can be cut out, and three sheets of a gorgeous patchwork-style paper. It can take quite a while to create the beautiful patchwork effects, so this is a welcome shortcut.


 You can find product lists and step-by-step instructions for all projects featured here in my Trimcraft gallery. But here are also a few more details relating to the dies for all those die addicts amongst you (and yes, I am definitely one of those as well ;) ...).

* Decorative dies by Sue Wilson
* Baby carriage die by Memory Box
* Sentiment die by Cheery Lynn
* Alphabet die set by Britannia Dies
* Baby rattle die by Marianne Design
