It's FINALLY here...and all the fabulous new products inside too!
Many of you have already received your copy of the new catalog, but if you haven't, it's still not too late! Simply contact me, and we can make arrangements to get you a copy of your very own!
Every catalog release, I have a Catalog Celebration party introducing the new product line. This year was no exception. We play CTMH Bingo, I give away prizes, we create a project or four, enjoy treats, and the best part is drawing for mystery hostesses! It's always a BLAST!
This year, I wanted to show as much new product as possible...so we created 4 cards!
The first card uses the new Huntington papers (love them!) and the new Always Grateful stamp set. The tree was stamped in 2nd generation Olive ink and the sentiment was stamped directly over in Slate. I often forget about this technique...but I love the outcome! The metal flower embellishment is from the new Base & Bling Floral Accents.
The next card is one of my favorites. It uses an overlay from the new Artbooking Cricut Cartridge...AMAZING!!! The Artbooking Cartridge is going to change scrapbooking forever! Ok, back to the card...the overlay is from Artbooking, page 82 (Overlay, <AllBoy>, cut at 4-1/2") from black cardstock. Each strip behind the overlay is cut at 1/2" x 4-1/2" from the new Laughing Lola papers. The middle images were also cut from Artbooking page 82 (Photo Mat 1, shift <Football>) at 3" for the purple, 2-3/4" for the black and 2-1/2" for the white cardstock. The stamped images are from the new All the Details stamp set (so versatile). The base of the card was cut from Lagoon CS at 5"x 10" with top fold. The embellishments are Teal Jewels and Sparkle Flourishes-Small.
This card uses the new Babycakes papers, and I added the Lagoon cardstock to change the feel of the papers. The stamp images are from the new Love This stamp set, and the sentiment is from the new Holiday Tags stamp set (perfect for home-made gift tags!) I love how the poppy flowers really 'pop' off the card! I also used the new Bronze Shimmer Trim for some added bling, and the center of the flowers uses the new ProPlayer Assortment embossed metal badge buttons.
Finally, can you tell I'm excited about the hexagons on Artbooking! This card is overloaded with hexagons! I used the new hexagon B&T Duo paper from ProPlayer, a hexagon image border from Artbooking page 66 (Border, <l>, cut at 5"), the new hexagon irresistables, and the happy birthday sentiment is from the new mini stamps Heartfelt Birthday Wish, and finally accessorized using the new Slate Striped Twist Ties (who would of thunk it!). I stamped the birthday sentiment twice, the top half first in Ruby ink, then without stamping, inked the bottom portion in Outdoor Denim. When you do this technique, just make sure you start with the lightest color first, so you don't contaminate your lighter color stamp pad. There is a great masculine feel to this card. Overall size is 6x6 from Slate Cardstock (cut at 6"x12" and folded in half).
I have SO MUCH new artwork to show you, so make sure you come back soon to check it all out!
