Graceful Glass Vellum Bookmarks & Delightfully Detailed Suite
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:
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;
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
Gift Bag Punch Board
Hello Stamping Friends,
We had a great time at the catalog launch last Saturday. We made a bookmark and refrigerator magnets with the new In Colors so we could see them up close and personal- they are beautiful colors! And that ribbon………just yummy!
To take those little decorations home, we needed a little bag so we used the new Gift Bag Punch Board (pg. 150 in the 2015 catalog) ((Thank you, Sheri))
The punch board has a Small, Medium, and Large size box, but with a little tweaking we could make an extra small box using a 6 X 6 piece of paper. (note: page 144 of the new catalog has three different paper stacks of 6X6 designer series paper). I didn’t get those in my first order so we made do with scrap from the past. Here are the gift bags ready for decorating with greetings, the starting paper sizes are on the sticky notes.
Stampin’ Up! has a great instruction video as well:
