MORE OCCASIONS MINI SNEAK PEEKS! Nature Walk stamp set promises to deliver the hot fashion trend in botanicals. The whole botanical vibe is one of the highlights of the upcoming Stampin' Up! Occasions Mini Catalog. The bird, "no. 147" and butterfly (envelope) are images from the set. And how about those gorgeous vanilla Rosettes? These products will be available to customers Jan. 4.
STAMPIN' PRETTY TIPS:
-
Crumb Cake, Very Vanilla and Whisper White look luxurious together. - The new Stampin' Up! Rosettes can be dyed with Classic Stampin' Ink to create custom colored flowers. I haven't tried it yet but will keep you posted.
- Those Gold Brads are standing at attention. Here's a link to my post and 1 Minute to Wow Video Tutorial on using a Piercing Mat and Paper Piercer for perfect alignment.
- The inspiration for my card and color mix is from the PPA photo above and this fashion photo from a Garnet Hill catalog. Are those rosettes on her gloves?
