When a new mini catalog starts getting so much attention, it's easy to forget about all of the amazing products and samples in the Annual Catalog. When the July-December Mini Catalog launched, I, for one, suddenly found myself delving into it full steam ahead, especially for fall and holiday-themed stamps and accessories. But again, don't forget the Annual Catalog! the Mini Catalog doesn't corner the market on fall and holiday-theme products. Some of my favorite stamp sets from last year's holiday Mini Catalog are now in the Annual Catalog. In addition, Stampin' Up!® always seems to have at least one brand new Christmas stamp set that only appears in the Annual Catalog. This year that stamp set is also a bundle called Evergreen Elegance. It includes the Evergreen Elegance stamp set and the Evergreen Border Punch.
One thing I love about this bundle is that although it is clearly meant for the Christmas season, it certainly has other outdoorsy possibilities, as well. Truthfully, I can picture any of the following great ideas with a "Happy Birthday" or a "Thinking of You" and maybe a little tweak of one kind or another, can't you?
I am particularly in love with this box, as it combines Christmas colors with a little pop of pink. Pretty sweet. And again, swap out the red on this project with a different color, choose a different sentiment, and voila! A project for any time of year!
All of these amazing projects have been provided to us demonstrators from Stampin' Up!®'s concept artists. This is another reason I love being a demonstrator - access to all kinds of amazing resources. This is definitely also one of those why you really want to purchase that Starter Kit. :) As a demonstrator, the list benefits just keeps growing! For more information, contact me.
