Yesterday was my Hostess Appreciation Party and my new catalog kick off, so I had to create some new samples for both!!!
My Hostess Appreciation Party is one of my favorite events of the whole year, and now that there will be 2 catalogs each year, I am going to have one every six month now!!! Only my hostesses who have had a home workshop during the past year are invited, and I treat them to breakfast (including mimosa!!), games, prizes, and of course some projects!!!
This first project is a photo album created with clear envelopes.
Stamp Sets: Short Order Alphabet, In the Spotlight (Level 2 Hostess set); Cardstock: Soft Sky, Whisper White, Purely Pomegranate; Inks: Soft Sky, River Rock, Purely Pomegranate, Wild Wasabi, Basic Black; Accessories: Purely Pomegranate Double Stitched Ribbon, Staple, Fire Circle Brads, CropADile
The second project was a simple birthday card.
Supplies:
Stamp Sets: All About Occasions, All About Birthday wheel (both items part of the Level 3 Hostess bundle, All about Occasions); Cardstock: Certainly Celery, Whisper White, Apricot Appeal; Inks: Certainly Celery Jumbo Cartridge; Accessories: Certainly Celery & Apricot Appeal Markers, 1-3/8" Circle Punch, Scallop Circle Punch, Apricot Appeal 1/4" Grosgrain Ribbon, Stampin' Dimensionals
Immediately following the Hostess Appreciation party, I held my New Catalog Open House. We made two more cards using new sets & products at this party, and I thought you'd like to see those, too! The first was a great card for a little boy's birthday or even a new baby card.
Supplies:
Stamp Sets: Zoofari; Cardstock: Bashful Blue, Whisper White; Inks: Basic Black; Accessories: Bashful Blue, Going Gray, Creamy Caramel, and Close to Cocoa Markers
The second is anther simple card that I was inspired by a card on Erika Martin's website and a card from Paper Crafts magazine. When I combined the two and added the InColor twist, this is what I came up with:
Supplies:
Stamp Sets: Double Line Doodles, Warm Words; Cardstock: Groovy Guava, Whisper White, Purely Pomegranate; Inks: Groovy Guava, Purely Pomegranate, Wild Wasabi; Accessories: Purely Pomegranate Double Stitched Ribbon, 3/4" Circle Punch, Stampin' Dimensionals
Hope you enjoy all these samples!!!
