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.

• Last card in the Joseph’s Coat series with a video & free project sheet for each!

  August 13, 2025

  ---

  Here’s the last card made with the Joseph’s Coat technique this week.  You can see the video tutorial below.  

  Save

  It features the Textured Notes stamp set seen here.  I love this set! But I love the dies in the bundle even more.  See the bundle here. 

  I used two of our newest In Colors here – Secret Sea and Timid Tiger.  I love the fact that the Secret Sea matches the Cloud Cover card stock I used for the card base; when sponged lightly. 

  Both of these colors are part of the big In Color sale during August, 2025!  It includes card stock, inks, markers, designer papers, embellishments, kits and lots more!  Check out the many discounted products here. 

  If you’re wondering how to make this incredible colorful effect please watch the video below.  I also gave the step by step directions in this post.

• Gorgeous Joseph’s Coat technique with free project sheet & video

  August 12, 2025

  ---

  Here’s another beautiful card made with the Joseph’s Coat technique. I shared it on last week’s Live video.  It’s so fun!

  Save

  My colors include Secret Sea, Timid Tiger and Darling Duckling.  The stamp set is called Artistic Leaves and can be seen here. 

  Save

  This technique involved adding color to White card stock and then heat embossing images in Clear powder over the colors.  Next rub a dark ink pad (Memento Black here).  The embossed images resist the black ink – it must be water-based ink!  

  Watch the video below to see how it’s done.  It’s super fun and such a cool effect.  

  I stamped the inside leaf with color by inking it in Timid Tiger ink and adding Secret Sea to the outer edges.  Then I stamped the coordinating stamp in Darling Duckling.

• A colorful Joseph’s Coat technique with Layered Thoughts

  August 11, 2025

  ---

  Have you ever done the Joseph’s Coat technique?  It’s one of those techniques that makes you feel like an artist.

  Save

  I shared how to do it on last week’s Live video. The card I’m featuring today uses the Layering Thoughts technique with three of our newest In Colors – Strawberry Slush, Darling Duckling and Timid Tiger.  

  Save

  These colors – card stock, ink, refills, gems, markers and card stock are all 15% off in August. See these products and so much more here.  It’s a great time to grab these items while discounted. 

  This technique involves a few steps:

  1. sponge colors over your neutral card stock – I used White. 
  2. Tap or rub the embossing buddy over the layer. 
  3. Stamp your images using Versamark ink. 
  4. Heat emboss with Clear embossing powder and your heat tool. Let dry. 
  5. Rub a dark ink (memento black here) over the entire layer.  The embossed areas will resist the water based ink. 
  6. Dab off excess ink with a tissue or paper towel.  Done!  

  Here’s how I finished the inside.  I wanted to use all of the colors I colored on the front so I used my Stampin’ Write markers on the stamp before stamping.
