BUG TIME

I have started preparing for my Occasions catalogue and Sale-a-brations event …

# make and takes finalised – 5 gift tags, a 3″x 3″ gift card and 2 standard sized cards with coordinating envelopes

# product playground ideas tested

# and, CASEing the catalogue almost finished.

I have CASEd several projects that are found in both the Occasions and Sale-a-bration catalogues … these will part of a product display on the day.  [CASEing = copy and share]

Our Stampin’ Up! catalogues are an amazing source of inspiration …

… here are three cards inspired by the products and cards on page 15 of the Occasions catalogue … two are my interpretation of the cards featured and one of my own design … all featuring the Beautiful Ride stamp set …

Mint Macaron, Watermelon Wonder, Whisper White and Basic Black – I love this combination … throw in a little Everyday Chic washi tape, a staple and some dimensionals …

I used the Shimmery White cardstock for this watercolour effect … so quick and easy …

Perfect Plum and Crushed Curry may not be everyone’s favourite combination but I think it works well … this is the first project that I have used paper from the Going Places DSP stack … it has an amazing range of designs and I can’t wait to play with it further. I also used some of the Botanical Gardens washi tape and the Project Life Let’s Get Away stamp set from the annual catalogue.

For me, Stampin’ Up! products are amazing … not only because of their design and quality, but for their coordination – you can mix and match stamp sets to create your own project, the colours coordinate across colour families and paper, the tools make crafting and creating easier and the embellishments let us add the perfect finishing touch!

… and I cannot wait to wake up in the morning and start creating again …
