Winter Warm Up Catalog Kickoff

Comments: 2
Winter in Wisconsin can seems to drag on forever and cabin fever can plague many of us.  That’s why a few of my team members and I planned a morning of stamping with friends at our “Winter Warm Up Catalog Kickoff”.
 
 
Event Organizers:  Back row: Lorri N. and Amanda W.
Front Row: myself & Tina D.

 
Here you can see some of the ladies that participated in the days event. 

 
Everyone got a goodie bag with chocolate, and a prize ticket.  They received extra tickets for placing orders, booking a party or joining our team.  Here are the prizes they could win with our drawing.
 

 
 
 

 
We had lots of great displays and a prize wheel to win more prizes.

 
It was a fantastic day of stamping, meeting new friends and just plain having fun.  Everyone made 12 cards using product from the new Occasions catalog and Sale-a-bration catalog.  It was a huge success.
 
 
This is one of the cards I designed for the event.  This features the Bow Builder punch and the Adventure Bound Designer Series paper from the Occasions catalog and the “Big Day” stamp set which is a free item from the Sale-a-bration catalog.

 
It’s kind of funny, but I must have heard a dozen times, “I didn’t think I would want this punch but after making this card, now I need it”.  That’s my job is to show you how awesome our product is, so you can see the wonderful things you can create with them.
 

Hooray!

Isn’t this bear just the cutest?  He’s from the stamp set called Cheerful Critters and you can stamp a number of different phrases in his sign.  I used the Birthday Bash Designer Series Paper for the banners.  The one print is supposed to be party hats, but I thought this card could be used for something other than birthday, so I turned the paper upside down and now instead of a party hat, we’ve got pennants on the banner.  I say “hooray” to that!

For todays card I used the Painted Petals stamp set with Blackberry Bliss and Hello Honey.  I stamped it first then ran it through the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder.  I accented the card with the new Hello Honey Quilted Cotton Ribbon.  Notice how the sentiment is punched out with the Decorative Labels Punch and it has a layer behind it which appears to be just slightly bigger.  To achieve this, I punched Blackberry Bliss with the Decorative Label Punch and cut it in half horizontally and then mounted those two pieces behind the Whisper White piece.  Pretty tricky, huh?
