It’s Finally Here!


The new catalog is LIVE!!  You know how exciting it was when you were young and you got some new clothes for the start of the school year and it was really hard to decide which really cool outfit you wanted to “show off” first?  Well that’s how I’m feeling with the new products in the new Annual Catalog. There are so many great new stamp sets and products it’s hard to decide what to show you first! 

 I decided to show you this card which features our new Blackberry Bliss and Hello Honey In Colors, some of the gorgeous Blackberry Bliss 3/8″ Stitched Satin Ribbon and the awesome Moonlight Designer Series Paper Stack.  These are all new and wonderful product that I am so excited about.  I also used a the new photopolymer stamp set called  “Endless Birthday Wishes”.  This stamp set was available to order in May and is available only while supplies last so I wanted to make sure you got to see it before it sells out.

 

You Da Man!

 

 
 

 
June is here and with that comes the new Annual Stampin’ UP! Catalog!  We can all start to order from it on June 2nd… Can I get a Woo Hoo?!?  I am so in love with the new catalog … from the fantastic stamp sets, to the way it’s all laid out, to the wonderful accessories and the yummy new In Colors…it’s beautiful!
 
As always right before a new catalog comes out, I (along with my sister Peggy) host an event for demonstrators to come and make 20 cards using all new product from the new catalog.  We held this event Friday night and we had a blast visiting with long time friends and getting to know those that joined us for the first time.  We also offer a swap for those that wish to participate.  For my swap (shown above) I made a card that would be great for Father’s Day or Birthday for that special guy. 
 
Many of the products I used on this card are brand new ones that I got from Stampin’ Up! while on the cruise.  
 
I used the new Rotary Alphabet Stamp for the words.  It’s an awesome way to say whet every you want to say! 
You can order it on June 2nd!
 
 
I used the new Mustache Framelit which is so much fun to play with.
You can order it on June 2nd!

 
and I used the new Flashback Designer Series Paper. 
You can order it on June 2nd!
 
Can you tell that I’m maybe just a little excited that the new catalog starts on June 2nd!  That’s tomorrow!
 

A Classic

 

I joined Stampin’ Up! in 2003 and one of the most popular stamp sets at that time was Lovely as a Tree, which is what I used on todays card.  Did you know that in 2014, Lovely as a Tree is still Stampin’ Up!’s most popular stamp set?  It is a go to stamp set for any masculine card.  It makes wonderful landscape cards as well as fall and winter and Holiday cards.  If you don’t have it, you really should check it out.

This card is another that uses the Project Life Cards & Labels Framelits.  This time we cut out a window through the front of the card so that the greeting which is stamped on the inside shows through the “window”.
