Handmade For You: August - December 2020 Mini Catalog

It's here, it will be available - LIVE TOMORROW, August 4th: the "Handmade For You" Mini Catalog!  Do you need a catalog of your very own?

Here's a sneak peek of just one of the new product lines: the POINSETTIA PLACE SUITE COLLECTION which includes not only the POINSETTIA PLACE DESIGNER SERIES PAPER (DSP) but also the POINSETTIA PETALS stamp set,  POINSETTIA DIES, PLUSH POINSETTIA SPECIALTY PAPER, BEADED PEARLS, and REAL RED 3/8" (1 CM) SHEER RIBBON.

My first card features the  new RED VELVET PAPER PACK.  Stampin' Up introduced a velvet paper last year in White; this is a fun option for creating a great holiday look to your Winter cards.  I used the Poinsettia Dies to emboss the veins in both the flower and the leaves & cut out each piece.  I've used some holiday  paper from last year as my background plus the new BALMY BLUE GLIMMER PAPER, plus Mossy Meadow, Real Red, & Whisper White cardstocks,  Each piece & layer of the Poinsettia was hand-shaped & adhered together, then adhered to a piece of thick Vellum.  This card front was then adhered to Whisper White Thick cardstock.  I love the texture and dimension of this card!



My next card came as I took a peek to see what other Demonstrators were doing with this set, this is my creation.  I've gold embossed on Very Vanilla cardstock using the Poinsettia Stamp set & die cut using the Poinsettia Dies.  Net, I shaped the flowers/leaves and created the center by using the Dark Mango Melody Blends to color pearls and adhering them to my Poinsettia.  The leaves were die cut in Mossy Meadow and the berry sprig in gold foil paper. For some bling, I used the Gold Glitter Enamel Dots - I love these because they have just  hint of gold and yet are opaque enough to not over power. The card front is attached to one of the pieces of the POINSETTIA PLACE DESIGNER SERIES PAPER DSP & mounted onto Very Vanilla Thick cardstock. 

Which card do you like the best?

I cannot show pictures of the new products until tomorrow when the catalog goes live- stay tuned!   If you do not have a Demonstrator, please contact me - I would love to be your Demonstrator and get a new catalog in your hands right away!
