New Year - New Occasions Catalogue and Sale-A-Bration

Happy New Year!

When I went to add the new Occasions Catalogue and the new Sale-A-Bration Brochure to my blog I noticed that it is almost 12 months to the day since I last posted.

I am not sure where the time went.

The new Occasions Catalogue went live today - 3 January 2019.

There are a lot of lovely new things. Be sure to take a look.

A few standouts for me are:

• the Well Said Bundle on page 27 - lots of possibilities there and it will cover almost any occasion you can think of;
• the Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies on page 28 are another - I love all the stitched shape framelits - they just add that little something extra to a project, and
• the Classic Garage Suite on page 43 - just perfect for all those male cards we need to make.

Sale-A-Bration - as always a great selection on FREE products to choose from when you spend $90 (excluding shipping and handling).

Be sure to have a look at both the Occasions Catalogue and the Sale-A-Bration Brochure. Just click on the images to the left of this post.

Happy stamping!

The new Occasions Catalogue is full of great new things. The Petal Passion suite on pages 22 and 23 is sure to prove a favourite. You can add colour to this brushstroke style imagery to create many different looks.

The Perennial Birthday Project Kit is another standout in the catalogue. It includes all you need to make 16 cards and the box to store them in. The tabbed dividers for each month have space to record the birthdays for the month so you never forget anyone and can be prepared in advance.

Sale-A-Bration - for each $90 you spend (excluding postage and handling) you get to choose one item from the Sale-A-Bration brochure. The Party Pandas seems to be an early favourite. There are lots of great products this year - stamps, ribbons, paper, card kits, Memories and More and thinlits. Be sure to have a look at the brochure to see what's on offer.

The mat is Whisper White.

The tree trunk has been stamped in Soft Suede ink on Soft Suede cardstock.
