Sharing New Product with My Team

In May demonstrators were able to buy a sampling of new product from the upcoming Annual Catalog available June 2, 2015.  We always anxiously await to see the new In Colors.  I am a fan of all the new colors.  At our May Team meeting the demonstrators in my downline were able to make these cards with  the new products.  The top card used Sprinkles of Life Stamp set.  It will cost $21.  Stampin' Up will donate $3 for each stamp set sold to Ronald McDonald House.  This an absolute favorite stamp set of mine in the new catalog!  It is so versatile.  It has a matching tree builder punch too.  Think trees, clouds, cupcakes, ice cream cones, baskets of apples or flowers.  And it comes with several cute sayings as well.  The paper I used is called Cherry on Top.  I actually used the apple from this tree punch for my cherry.  The itty bitty epoxy stickers made it shine!  The embossing folder used is called Boho Chic.

The second card used You've Got This stamp set.  We stamped the linen looking background with pool party ink.  We then used Watermelon Wonder and Delightful Dijon markers for the flower and Cucumber Crush for the stem.  The sentiment is stamped in Tip Top Taupe.  Don't you love the new 2015-2017 In Color Blossom Accents and new 1" Dotted Lace Trim in Tip Top Taupe?  We created the banners on both cards with the new Banner Triple punch.  It cuts 1", 1 1/2", 2" widths.  You can cut smaller widths by centering the paper.

Contact me for a free annual catalog.  I will be having an open house showcasing the new product on June 29 from 10am to 2pm.  There will be paper and ribbon shares for purchase, a make n' take and lots of samples.  If you would like to join my team, contact me today.  We would love to stamp with you and share ideas at our quarterly meetings.

Canal Street Class Cards from May 14, 2015


 The first two cards were mine both cased from Pinterest.  I changed up the images/stamp sets on both from those I cased. Just the very edge of the embossing folder was used to give the decorative edge. 

These were the cards Nancy taught.  I love the look of gears created with the Starburst Framelits.  Her cards were also cased.

Canal Street Class Cards from May 28, 2015


 The top two cards were taught by Nancy.  Isn't the From the Herd card with the animals looking out the barn door adorable?  The second card design is great for using up all those small scraps of paper.  what a great masculine card!
 I am saying good-bye to Four Feathers stamp set and Basic Gray ink with this card.  I cased this card from Celia Cawthon .  Click  here to see her blog.  I added the string of Bermuda Bay sequins.  I think Bermuda Bay is my favorite color.  What's yours?

This next card I used the just because sentiment from And Many More.  I cased this card from Leanne Pugliese .  See her blog by clicking here.  She used a sketch from As You See It #082.  I have never heard of this one.  I used Flower Flair framelits, bitty butterfly punch, 1" circle punch, and the small heart is from the owl punch.  I loved the play between Whisper White, Very Vanilla, and Crumb Cake.  I changed up the colors from her card.  It was a lot of little pieces but totally worth it when the card was done, don't you think?
