I promised you sneak peeks of new products from the Stampin’ Up! Occasions Catalog and I’m here to show them off again! Today’s card (for my daughter, Caroline, when she comes home from college for winter break this weekend) shares the Vivid Vases single stamp and this week’s Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge (PPA183). The Vivid Vases stamp will be available for purchase starting Jan. 3, when the Occasions Catalog begins. Here’s a handy wish list to keep track of your favorites.
STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- SNEAK PEEK! The Vivid Vases stamp (available Jan. 3) was heat embossed with Wild Wasabi Stampin’ Emboss Powder and a Heat Tool. I {heart} colored embossing powders! They look especially striking on dark colors, like this Early Espresso Card Stock. Don’t you agree?
- For a little variety, I cropped 1 1/2″ off the right side front of the card base.
- SNEAK PEEK! Banner-riffic! Stampin’ Up! will be offering a collection of Banners Framelits Dies so you can get perfect crops in a variety of sizes every time. Combine it with the Stampin’ Up! Magnetic Platform and Big Shot for easy placement on patterned paper. I used a Banners Framelit for the Rose Red Polka Dot Pattern (Regals Designer Series Paper Stack).
- I played with a Garden Green button from Regals Designer Buttons. I like how it’s a wee bit different in color than Wild Wasabi. More depth and interest!
- A bit of Whisper White Baker’s Twine adds a cross-stitched finish to the button. Stampin’ Up! Glue Dots keep both the baker’s twine and button in place.
