Another Sneak Peak

So here is another card I made using some of the new products from the Summer Mini Catalogue!
I won't list the items I have used, as I don't want to spoil the suprise for others who have to wait until the Summer Mini Catalogue is available on the 1st of December (I know some of you all ready have copies).



I have been busy this afternoon in my craft room making cards! So far I have made 22!
16 of the 22 are actually swaps, as on Saturday I am off to Brisbane for a Stampin' Up! training day. I was undecided up until lunch time today as to do swaps or not but the more I thought about it, the more I thought I should! (nothing like leaving it to the last minute).
I thought I would try and do about 30, so half way there! I am doing all the same base design, but I am changing all the colours and using different Designer Series Papers. I'm happy with what I came up with. I will post photos of my swaps after Saturday.

Thanks..Jules

Bella Bleu

Last week I posted 4 cards that I made using the Bella Bleu Designer Series Papers, well here is a photo of all 4 of them together!



I'll pop back later with another Sneak Peak from the Summer Mini Catalogue.
Thanks..Jules

Shhh...

One advantage of being a Stampin'Up! Demonstrator is that we get to see New Catalogues or Mini Catalogues about a month in advance before our customers do. We are able to pre-order some of the products so we are able to get a head start on making samples that we can show our customers and let them what to expect!

So the New Summer Mini Catalogue will be available to purchase from on the 1st of December.

From now until the 1st of December, I will be posting Sneak Peaks of samples that I have been making over the past few weeks!

If you would like to receive your own copy of the New Summer Mini, please contact me.

Don't these colours just scream Summer!



You can probably tell from my usual style and colours, that I tend not to use alot of the colours from the Bold Bright Colour Family.
Well with one of the new Designer Series Paper Packs, Kaleidoscope, which is in the New Summer Mini, it certainly has taken me out of my comfort zone and over the past few weeks has pushed me to try new colour combinations. All of the colours above all match perfectly with it! They are so bright and fresh.

Thanks..Jules

Card 3 from Bella Bleu

Ok, so for card 3 from this set.This would have to be my least favourite of the 4.
I think it is a little too busy. I don't like the row of Pearls on it, but when I tried to remove them it tore the paper a little, so they had to stay, so if you can picture this card without the row of Pearls!!

Stamp Sets: Fresh Cuts
Cardstock: Kraft, Not Quite Navy
Designer Series Paper: Bella Bleu
Inks: Not Quite Navy
Punches: Scallop Oval, Large Oval,1/2 inch Circle

Card 2 using Bella Bleu

Another card I made using the Designer Series Paper Bella Bleu. There are 4 cards in total that I made in this set, so I might actually make up a nice gift box and give them as a gift!
This is quite a simple card, I just love patterns on the paper they have such a elegant feel to them and the colours all go perfectly together.



Supplies Used:
Stamp Sets: Fresh Cuts
Cardstock: Kraft, Very Vanilla and Not Quite Navy
Designer Series Paper: Bella Bleu
Inks: Not Quite Navy
Punches: Scallop Square, 1 1/4" Square and Eyelet Border

Bella Bleu

Now I must admit when I first saw the Bella Bleu Designer Series Paper in the current Catalogue,it wasn't one that I knew I had to get straight away. I recently purchased a pack and when I laid it out with the co ordinating cardstock and ribbon I was actually suprised at how much I liked it!

So, I've been playing with this DS pack and over the next few days I will post all of them here so you can have a look and let me know what you think! They aren't my usual style but sometimes you need to break away and do something a little different!



Supplies Used:
Stamp Sets:Sense of Time (Spring Mini Catalogue)
Cardstock:Note Quite Navy, Very Vanilla
Designer Series Paper:Bella Bleu
Inks:Not Quite Navy
Other: Cuttlebug, Nestabilities and Wide Satin Ribbon

Thanks..Jules
