Polka Dots for Everyone!

I shared this card yesterday on my business Facebook page, Amy's Card Buffet. I hope you'll follow me there--it's the best way to hear about specials, updates, and events!

This is a "catalog CASE," meaning I found a card in the new 2015 catalog that I loved, and made a card somewhat like it. Stampin Up catalogs are *great* sources of inspiration! If you look on page 17, you'll see that I used the same colors and the Happy Patterns Masks as in the sample, but I used a different greeting and did kind of my own thing with it.

You may have skimmed right over the Happy Patterns Masks when you went through the catalog. Here is a picture:

You get 4 different masks for $6. Each one is 6x6, so it easily covers a card or medium-sized mixed media project. You can spritz, sponge, color, or whatever you like! They wash off easily and don't take much room to store.

Holiday Preview: Acorny Thank You and a Mojo Sketch

My box of Holiday Catalog preview merchandise arrived today! Here, I've used some of my favorites in a Mojo Monday Sketch, MOJO409.

If you've known me for long, you know I adore acorn images, so this set and punch combo was an automatic entry for my first order. It comes as a bundle, so you'll save by buying the Acorny Thank You photopolymer bundle come September!  The Designer Series Paper is also a preview--it's called Into the Woods, and you'll be seeing more of it here soon. The Softly Falling embossing folder is already winning a place at the *front* of the embossing folders, so watch for more of it, too.

Hope you enjoyed this preview! Check out the MOJO409 sketch!
