Open House Fun! New Catalogue Launch Party

Open House Fun! New Stampin Up Catalogue Launch Party

Last night I held my annual Open House to celebrate the launch of the new Annual Catalogue. This is a fun affair. Lots of chat, and laughter goes on. We catch up with friends and make new ones too!

We browse the new catalogue, and chat about our favourites. So much more fun doing this together.

There is of course tea, coffee, cake and nibbles.

And it wouldn't be a party without some fizz!

After lots of chat we get down to some crafting.

Time For Some Fun Make n Takes!

 I have prepared some Make n Takes with product from the new catalogue to play with.

This was fun!

Pretty projects, using Animal Outing and Painted Glass stamp sets.

This one uses Pool Party card , Whisper White card, Bermuda Bay and Smoky Slate Ink Pads and the stamp is from Painted Glass. The "note for you" sentiment is from the Eastern Beauty stamp set.

This one uses Old Olive card, Smoky Slate card, DSP (patterned paper) from the Share What You Love papers, Blends Markers in Light and Dark Smoky Slate and Burlap Ribbon.

All the products used for the Make n Takes can be found here with clickable links to my Online Shop

Then a raffle. I had two stamp sets for raffle prizes wrapped in a metre of pretty ribbon.😊

Always time for more refreshments and catalogue browsing too. 🍰

Fruit Basket - You Are The Sweetest! And You Tube Video.

I love the Tutti Frutti Suite in the new Spring Summer Catalogue. 

I was lucky enough to get the set of Mini Fruit Punches at Onstage in November. Onstage is a twice yearly convention held by Stampin' Up! just for it's demonstrators. We get to see all the new products before they are launched and take home plenty of freebies too!

So in my Pre Order I had to add the rest of the Suite of course! The matching stamp set is so fun and I love the coordinating 6 x 6 papers and self adhesive sequins too.

Both sides of the papers are lovely!

I had a Spring/Summer Catalogue /Saleabration Open House Party on Friday and this is the card we made for our Make n Take. So simple and easy to make a pretty Birthday card using just stamps and punches.

I used my favourite colour combo right now which is Lemon Lime Twist and Powder Pink. I added in some Real Red for the strawberries and a few Pool Party self adhesive sequins to finish it off.

Here is my You Tube video of how I made it.

We had so much fun with it, the ladies made a great job of their cards. We had a lovely evening. It's so much more fun to stamp with friends and share the excitement when a new range of products is released. Lots of cards were made and we had a raffle winner too.

I didn't use the papers on Friday's card but I included it on this one from previous card. Can you tell how much I love this colour combo 😂 I included the sequins in Lemon Lime twist on this one.

I really hope you like my card. Do subscribe to my blog for lots more inspiration dropping into your inbox. Just click the subscribe button at the top of the page.
