Happy Opening Day of the 2012 Occasions Mini Catalog!I almost forgot today was the official day, because we demos have been enjoying our pre-order sets and accessories for over a month now–and some of us from Founder's Circle, have been sitting on these goodies since last September! I could hardly wait to get my Christmas sets and papers filed away for another year and get out my new toys. Luckily, I've been working on over 200 swaps for the upcoming Leadership Conference, so I have major excuses to stamp, stamp, and stamp some more!
This card was a prototype for one of the swaps I am organizing through Splitcoast Stampers. Love the crisp pink and black color combo. I ended up changing the long flat ribbon to Pretty in Pink, and I backed off the Color Spritzer tool because I felt like it was a bit heavy on this sample one. But I sat and sewed 20 of the little Bitty Buttons on a twist of Basic Black satin ribbon–the recipients better really appreciate that little accent!!
I've been wanting a new wedding set for a while now, so I was delighted to see this great Love & Laughter set and matching jumbo Stampin' Around wheel in the 2012 Occasions Mini (page 29). Here's the rest of the images in the set:
Love & Laughter is also available as a digital download! So it's perfect for your albums, invitations, save-the-date cards and more. One cool thing they did on the digital version was to allow you to use the sayings individually as well as together to form the cake. So for only $7.95, you're getting a ton of useful images. And remember, all of Stampin' Up's downloads can be used with other programs, so if you don't have My Digital Studio, you can still use our great, exclusive artwork in just about any scrapbooking software or design program out there. Feel free to ask me anything you need to know about My Digital Studio or digi-scrapping!
You can see everything in the new Mini Catalog by clicking here to view my shopping website, including three brand new product suites, new Big Shot dies and accessories, new papers, and of course, lots and lots of great stamps!
Ok, back to the swap mines! if you "see" me on Splitcoast, or Facebook, or anywhere else online today, feel free to tell me to get my hide back in the stamp room!
