More Sneak Peeks

New Occasions Catalog 

Did you get yours?

You should have gotten your copy of the new Occasions Catalog. If you did NOT get it yet, please let me know. The holidays seemed to have messed with the delivery of  these new catalogs. Maybe you got the Sale-A-Bration brochure? Both were mailed by Stampin' Up! 

Here's a sneak peek of a new stamp set called Amazing Life. Sometimes I use the samples provided by Stampin' Up! for my inspiration.That's what I did with this card. The Gingham Gala Designer Series Paper is so pretty and versatile. I used Grapefruit Grove and paired it with the Amazing Life stamp set. 



Did you notice those sequins? 


They are called Gingham Gala adhesive-backed sequins and are page 35 of the Occasions catalog. They are color coordinated to match this DSP! Plus they have their own adhesive. How easy is that? 



Another option using the same color combo but different layout and stamps. I love my Stampin' Blends, they color so smoothly and look professional. That's what I used to I color the letters, flowers and little banner. The bow is tied with two strands of Linen thread and adhered with a Stampin' Glue Dot.



Would you like to see the new catalog before everyone else? How about getting a 20% discount on your Stampin' Up! purchases? Those are just a couple of the benefits of joining my team.


It only costs $99 to join and shipping is FREE! You pick $175 worth of products during
Sale-A-Bration for $99! Questions? Just ask me. Here's where you can check out more details:

A Little Wild


Do you need a cute baby card? 

How about going A Little Wild?


There are four new babies in my immediate circle of friends. One was born ON my birthday so I must send a card.





I used A Little Wild stamp set to create this adorable little girl card for Baby Anne. She's the one who arrived on my birthday, November 26.   

Here's my inspiration:




Since I wanted a card, I made the tag and put it on a piece of 4" x 5 1/4" Designer Series Paper out of the Subtles Designer Series paper. These are 6" x 6" sheets.



Here's my little boy card:



Same inspiration but this time I put the tag on a 4" x 5 1/4"piece of the Twinkle Twinkle Designer Series Paper.  Both card fronts are mounted on Whisper White Cardstock 

Have you been checking the Clearance Rack?
Lot's of things have been added so you'd better check it out. The Hostess Code for this month is GDWXXDMJ. I would be happy to help you place your order, just ask.

Thanks for stopping by
and Happy Stamping,

Butterfly Gala

I am so excited to be participating in Kylie's Demonstrator Training Blog Hop! 

I love butterflies!

So I was very happy when I saw the new Gingham Gala Suite in the Occasions Catalog because there are butterflies galore.

Here's a sneak peek of the prettiness that is coming your way. The first card I made with the Butterfly Gala stamp set:




The Designer Series Paper is called Botanical Butterfly DSP and you can get it free during Sale-a-bration.  If this is your first time to hear about Sale-a-bration let me explain why it's so exciting. Spend $50 (before tax and shipping), choose a FREE product from the Sale-a-bration brochure. There's no limit--for every $50 you spend, choose another FREE product. Earn even bigger rewards when you spend $100 (before tax and shipping). 





The Butterfly Gala stamp set has a coordinating punch, that's how I got those cute butterflies to flutter on the card. You are going to love this suite of products.



So what do you think? Don't you just love this suite? Wait until you see it in person! We'll be using these products at my Class in January so get ready to be amazed!



That's all for today!

Stay bright and happy stamping,
Mary Lou

Gift Packaging Ideas

It's Christmas Gift-giving Time!!

Here are some really cute packaging ideas that Stampin' Up can help you with:



Pillow Boxes for small gifts or gift cards


 

Here are a couple of examples. Just use Christmas theme and there you go!



Pizza Box offers different size and shape. Small gifts or gift cards fit in this one.



All you have to do is change the sentiment and it is a great Christmas gift that anyone would love to get.


A Baker's Box is just the right size if you like to give cookies or candies. This box is food grade.


These are obviously Halloween but all you have to do is change the tag and it becomes Christmas. 

My Online Store is open ALL the time so if you would like to order these little gift packaging products at 2 a.m., you can do that. Or if you'd rather email your order to me, you can do that, also.

Need a catalog? Email me! maryloufoster74@yahoo.com

Thank you so much for stopping by.

Until next time,
Happy Stamping and Stay Bright!!
