The new Occasion Mini Catalog is filled with lots of fun new products perfect for this time of year. They're designed to help us celebrate Valentine's Day (falling in love) weddings, Easter or St. Patrick's Day, or for all year long. Stampin' Up introducted Framelits, Large Sizzlits and Edgelits in this mini. Check out the ones we used at our January 9th workshop.
This card was actually used for my husband's birthday.
We used the Take It to Heart stamp set and water color crayons and blender pens to color it. The sentiment is from P.S. I Love You. The base of the card is very vanilla, layered with soft suede and embossed with the Elegant Lines folder. The heart was cut with the new Hearts Collection Framelits Die. This set contains six dies in a sturdy envelope for easy storage.
Our next card came from the Apothecary Art stamp set.
This elegant birthday card was created using the intricate Paper Doily Die and paper from the Attic Boutique DSP. The stamp was cut with the Labels Collection Framelits Die and a second larger label added to further accent the stamped image. To give it depth, this layer was embossed with the Perfect Polka Dot Textured Impressions folder. I used the 3/8" Baja Breeze pleated satin ribbon and two pearls to finish it off. Did you notice the base of the card (Pool Party card stock) was embossed with Elegant Bouquet?
Our final project just had to be something connected with chocolate and Valentine's Day.
These cute mini candy bar holders can be made for any special occasion or holiday. The candy holder on the left is made by using the Scallop Circle Bigz Die. Just fold the sides in and the bottom up and attach with a brad. You can fit two mini candy bars in this holder and decorate with ribbon or even add a tag. The candy bar holder on the right holds one mini candy bar. If you'd like the directions to make it, just send a request to sjsmith20@frontier.com.
We had a great time and would love to have you join us. Thanks for stopping by!
