Hello Stamping Friends,

A new catalog year has started and Stampin’ Up! is celebrating their 30th birthday!  It is great to be part of a company that keeps on keeping on (and keeping up with modern trends)!

Thank you for supporting the catalog launch on Friday and Saturday and the craft sale.  All the left over products that didn’t sell are now in a new tab on this blog that I titled “Bake Sale”.

The new hostess code is C2HE3X22.  Our bimonthly club is July 10th and guests are welcome for $5 or a $25 order placed between now and July 10th.

For the make and take at the catalog launch I displayed several new products and the favorite was the Delightfully Detailed Laser-cut paper shown on pages 38-39.  It is part of the Delightfully Detailed suite. Our wonderful home office has compiled a set of videos introducing the new catalog products and this is the video that showcases the paper we all loved.

Of course, at every catalog launch we must make a ‘traditional’ bookmark for our catalogs and a color chart with the new In Colors so we can actually see them, punch them – love them!  The bookmarks used the In Colors and the Graceful Glass Designer Vellum #146344, page 165.

The ribbon is 5/8″ Polka Dot Tulle in Whisper White, #146912, and various baker’s twine including the new Nature’s Twine #146342 which has the Grapefruit Grove color-see pages 200-201.

• Bookmark Base = 2″ X 7″  punched at the top with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch #133324
• Whisper White for behind the vellum = 1 1/2″  X  6″
• Vellum = 1 1/2″ X 6″ (except the yellow roses which are 1 1/4″ X 5 1/2″)
• Black for the yellow roses = 1 1/2″ X 5 3/4″

The color charts use a 3/4″ length of cardstock punched with the retired banner punch.

To make vellum bright white, rub the backside of the vellum with a stylus #126189 on the Stampin’ Pierce Mat #126199:

The front side:

It also gives a 3D look and feel.

The color charts all had to be redone for the color revamp.  This year I added a few extra color charts to compare color families.

Brights; Neutrals; Basics;

Regals and Subtles;

In Colors;

Blues and Grays; Reds and Pinks;

Purples and Browns; Oranges and Yellows; Greens;

We have 13 greens so the last two had to be split.

There are twelve Color Charts.  Email me if you would like the Excel spreadsheet or if you would like to order a set of cards.  I will make them up for you for $8 – pick up at my house; or $10 -mailed within the USA.  email:  [email protected]

Contact me if you would like a catalog, I would love to earn your business and be your demonstrator.

SAL,

Karen
