I am so pleased to announce a new release of fun products - lots of new craft dies and stamps! Actually 15 new wood mounted stamps (6 of these work with some of our new craft dies!) - and 32 awesome new craft dies!
I made a short video (which is sure to be nominated for an Academy Award) using two of my favorites - the 98228 Grand Snow Globe Die and the D1823 Polar Bear Globe stamp. I designed these to work together (as you'll see in the video).
Here's the Grand Snow Globe (98228) and the Medium Snowglobe (98229) - we made these a little special because we had stamps and photo cards in mind for the holidays. We bonded a transparent grid to the die so that you can position things precisely when cutting - and it works wonderfully!
The D1823 Polar Bear stamp fits inside the Grand Snowglobe nicely - just watch the video and see how well they work together!
To see the new assortment of stamps and dies, go to the Polar Bear Studio collection on the Memory Box website!
To celebrate, I'd like to do a giveaway! Please post a comment on how you would use the new Snowglobe dies in a project (cards, albums, decor) - I'll give away a set of all 3 snowglobes (Grand, Medium and Small) to a randomly selected commenter - one prize set for every 50 comments. So, if there are 50 comments, there will be one lucky winner. If there are 300 comments, there will be 6 lucky winners! Tell your friends! Contest ends Sunday night 12 midnight pacific time October 23, 2011.
That polar bear is just *so* stinkin' cute!
As for the dies, they have me rethinking my holiday cards. I'm now thinking an acetate snowglobe window with our holiday card attached to the inside would be just the thing. And all the ornament possibilities...

I love all your dies! I have about 20 or so now, with more on the way. I love the grid on the snow globe. I can see using the polar bear stamp and making a shaker card with polar white Flowersoft inside.

I think the snow globe would make a fantastic base for photo ornaments as well as holiday cards. It's a perfect die for any winter-themed projects.

Beautiful! I'd cut a piece of clear recycled plastic packaging and put it in the snowglobe for glass.

Ornaments ... lots and lots of ornaments! Love all your dies and have more than my share already. Keep 'em coming!

I'd definitely use the dies with clear acetate to make a shaker card and would also try to make a gel card.
I love snowglobes and think that they'd be great for cards year round!

My oldest granddaughter collects snow globes! She would love a card made with one just for her! And my grandson loves world globes and geography. That would be fun to try to make for him. Thanks for sharing the adorable polar bear!

I think the snow globe dies would be fun to use after the holidays...making memory books of a trip, or even a vintage theme (angels) cards.

I love this new release! I would definitely use these on my holiday cards and then on some wintery scrapbook pages!

I was so excited about the globes that I did not say how I would use them! I would make shadow boxes with them...using the globe as the open window of the shadow box :)
