Tim Holtz Crazy Dogs & WPlus9 Whimsy Alpha | Simon Says Stamp Masterpiece Box
Happy Saturday, everyone!
Yesterday, Simon Says Stamp revealed the Masterpiece Box. Basically, it’s a box of 15 never-before-seen items from a variety of different crafting companies. The way Heidi Crowl, owner of Simon Says Stamp, describes it…
We’ve been working on coordinating this Masterpiece Box for about 8 months. It’s been a labor of love. The fact that so many companies were willing to release their product alongside other manufacturers shows the strength and cooperation in our industry. Aaron from Hero Arts has been known to say “The rising tide lifts all boats” and I totally see his point.
The Masterpiece box features 15 products from 10 different manufacturers and is about about bringing something super special and exciting to market. The Masterpiece Box features new releases from many of the industries finest brands!
The Masterpiece Box is jam packed full of new products and retails for $199.99. It’s a steep price, but I think it would make an amazing special gift for any stamp enthusiast. Quantities are limited so once it’s sold out, they will not be re-stocked. If it sells out, you will need to wait until each item is shipping. Check out this post at the Simon blog to see when each item is shipping, and to see them up close. :)
For my project featuring items from the Masterpiece Box, I create a framed home decor piece that I’ll be mailing to my friend Jennifer McGuire! The dog stamp is from the Tim Holtz stamp set Crazy Dogs, a stamp set I illustrated for Tim a month ago (Wow! That stamp set was manufactured super fast!). Crazy Dogs is available for pre-sale currently and will be released very soon.
Anyhow, I included the Vizsla dog in the stamp set specifically for Jennifer! The McGuires adopted a Vizsla puppy about 7 months ago and named her Foxy. :)
The alpha stamps behind Foxy are from the WPlus9 Whimsy Alpha stamp set (to be released in December 2016).
I finished off the piece with a die-cut heart using Simon Says Stamp’s Nested Hearts dies and the Paw Print die set from Paper Smooches. All that yummy red glitter is Apple Red Cosmic Shimmer Paste.
