Holiday Catalog Launch Party with lots of new product displays

My new Holiday Catalog open house event went wonderfully on Wednesday; it was a big smash with lots of people attending.  I was ready with fabulous displays and yummy food.  Of course I forgot to take photos of the food but I did remember to grab some of the displays. 

First is the Splendid Autumn display:

I also included swaps from the Caring Leaves stamp set in the upper left. 

I made samples of some of the die-cuts I have to help showcase how they can be used.

Next is my Regal Winter display:

I shared a few of these cards on last week's Live video which you can here and another one here.

Next is the Nest of Winter suite which is filled with wood grains, birds and nature. 

Save

I shared some of these cards in this video seen here. 

I created a sample for the dies in this suite too.  I should have colored them in but I didn't take the time.

I'll share more soon!

  I did have trouble getting a good photo of the actual colors on this one.  I added Petal Pink/Champagne ribbon and Champagne rhinestones to this one. I cannot resist adding these when I can.  They're beautiful!

• Pleased as Punch fun fold card

  February 5, 2020

  ---

  I made this card for a recent online swap I participated in.  I believe this type of fold is called a 'Joy Fold' card. 

  Save

  The Pool Party piece is folded in half; the bottom part is under the front flap of the White layer.  See measurements below.

  Save

  I chose to use the brand new Pleased as Punch designer paper seen here.  It coordinates with FOUR of our current punches – amazing!  The two hearts on this card are punched directly from the designer paper. 

  Save

  I love it so much I am featuring it for my February card kit to go.  I'll share that with you tomorrow. 

  Details:

  • The hearts are punched from the DSP with the Heart Punch Pack
  • The ribbon is the White seam binding on page 25 of the January – June Mini catalog
  • the sequins are from the free SAB Metallic Baker's Twine & Sequins combo pack seen here
  • the embossing folder is the Coastal Weave 3D embossing folder seen here

  Measurements:

  • White – 4 1/4" X 8 1/2" scored at 5 1/2"
  • Pool Party 3" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
  • So Saffron 2 1/4" X 3 1/2"
  • Pleased as Punch DSP 1/4" X 3 1/2"
