Lots of product displays from my New Catalog Launch party!


I held my New Catalog launch party on Saturday and today I'm sharing some of the displays I had for my customers. It was a cold day here but I still had a decent turnout. I wish I had taken photos of the food but I forgot. 

This table above is my Sale-a-Bration display. I laid out the many products and projects I had to show what can be done with this year's Sale-a-Bration items.  

This next view of of this same table. 

Next is 3 boards featuring products from the 2025 Spring catalog. 

Most of these were received from swapping with my stamping friends. 

From left to right, this board features the Friends of the Ocean suite, center is the With you in Mind stamp set, upper middle is the Darling Dino, upper left is the Terrific Toadstools, lower right is the Floral Delight& Darling Wishes. 

This next board features the Memorable Blooms on the lower left, the Wildflower Birthday at the top and the To the Point punch projects on the lower right. 

This final board features the One More Year on the top left, Storybook Moments on the lower left, the Linked Together at the upper right and the Beautiful Butterflies on the lower right.

  • Beautiful stamped scenes & video with After the Storm set


    Since I cannot draw, sketch or paint I stamp.  My husband, Mom, sister and cousin have all painted beautiful scenes and I have many of them hanging in my home.  I think this is why I love creating stamped scenes.  Scene builder sets are some of my favorites; it truly makes me feel like an artist!  I made these cards on a recent FB Live. *video is posted below

    The After the Storm stamp set (seen here) is France Martin's Million Dollar Achiever stamp set.  It caught my eye right away.  I had a play with it one afternoon and created these cards. 

    I'm sharing two today and will give the details on the other two tomorrow. 

    You might wonder where I got the hills/mountain image.  Well it's the clouds stamp!  I love finding new ways to use stamps to create something beautiful yet unexpected! 

    The colors here are Fresh Freesia, So Saffron and Garden Green.  I used a direct to paper technique, swiping my ink pad across the White CS for the horizon.  I stamped the clouds using Fresh Freesia ink. 

    I did add just a bit of Pale Papaya ink at the top and swiped my White Craft ink pad across it at the end. 

    For this next card I used a totally different technique with the Blending Brushes.  

    I used the following inks: Old Olive, Pool party, So Saffron and Calypso Coral. I used Blending Brushes for the Pool Party and So Saffron inks and for the sunset I used a sponge dauber for the Calypso Coral.

    Again I used the large cloud stamp to create the hills. 

    Below is the video for both of these cards & two more!

  • You’re a Peach fun fold swap card


    I actually love to create swap cards.  There's something rewarding about creating multiples of the same cards.  

    How do swaps work?  I know many people are curious….  You create one design and make multiples of it; usually for as many of that card as there are people in the swap.  Swapping saves so much time and you get samples using products you don't have to buy. There are so many benefits of swapping but for most of us, the main reasons are it's fun and to get samples we didn't have to design.  

    I have gals in my Flowerbug's Team that join just so they can swap! Right now the JOIN+ offer is so great I hope you'll consider it if you are not already a Demonstrator.  The value is incredible!  If you have a wish list over $150 you really need to consider this!

    I created the card below for a Flowerbug Team swap this month.  My gals can take part in our monthly swaps if they'd like to.  It's a great opportunity to get a variety of cards to use or share.  

    For this card I used the You're a Peach suite seen here.  It's on pages 60-61 in the Annual catalog. 

    The card base is Pale Papaya and I added Balmy Blue, Pear Pizzazz, Calypso Coral and White accents. The greeting die is from the Tasteful Labels dies seen here.  I layered it with Pale Papaya CS. 

    You might wonder how I achieved the 'blushing' peach image.  I inked the three peaches (all on one stamp) in Pale Papaya and before I stamped I sponged on a bit of Calypso Coral on the outer edges of each. 

    Here's the sequence of stamping the main image:

    1. Stamp the leaves image twice on the White CS using Pear Pizzazz ink.  I stamped off once first. 
    2. Ink and stamp the peaches using the technique mentioned above.  
    3. Add Balmy Blue ink all over using Blending Brushes.  Be sure to use a light hand and start off of the card stock. 

    Here's a look at the inside: 

    Measurements: 

    • Pale Papaya card base 5 1/2" square, score at 4 1/4"
    • Balmy Blue 4 1/4" X 3 1/4"
    • Whisper White – 2 pieces.  Front is 4" X 3", inside is 4 1/2" X 3 1/2"
    • You're a Peach DSP 1" X 5 1/4"

  • Beauty of Friendship Fun Fold card


    Finally I can share this beautiful fun fold card we made at my May Card Clubs!  

    I like to wait until after all of my Clubs are held so I can surprise them with the cards we're making.  I'm not sure why; it's just a habit now after many years of doing it that way!  

    I chose to use the Beauty of Friendship bundle (seen here) to make this unique 'Latch fold'. 

    I chose to use a few of our new In Colors; So Succulent & Evening Evergreen along with Pool party.  It sure created a pretty, almost monochromatic card.  Everyone sure loved it; which is always my goal!

    This fold is very deceiving but so simple!  Just a little trick at the end to put it all together.  Watch the video below! 

    Download the Beauty of Friendship latch fold card project sheet or use these measurements:

    • Pool Party 5 1/2" X 6 1/2" scored at 4 1/4", 3 1/2" X 3 1/4" scored at 2 3/4" along the 3 1/4" side
      Whisper White 2" X 5 1/4", 2 1/2" X 3 1/4" and 4" X 5 1/4" inside, plus a scrap for die-cut
      Evening Evergreen – scrap for 2 1/4" circle
