Goodbye In Colors: My Friend Hello Card

I whipped up this card for a shoebox swap with some of my customers. I literally had 10 minutes and just pulled out a stamp set from the stack I pulled off my shelf of retiring stamp sets and grabbed some of the retiring In Colors. The 2012-2014 In Colors are all sold out, but you could easily change the colors and make this card with the newer In Colors, such as Pistachio Pudding, Baked Brown Sugar, and Strawberry Slush.

Sneak Peek: Work of Art Notecard Set

Pin It!
One of my favorite stamp sets that was demonstrated at the Stampin' Up! Catalog Premiere on Monday is the Work of Art stamp set and I was so excited when they announced that everyone in attendance would be getting that stamp set! I whipped up these clean and simple notecards and used every single stamp in the set! The set of five notecards and envelopes fits perfectly into one of the Chevron Gift Bags. I added a coordinating tag to finish it off.
 Here are the notecards. I created an ombre effect by inking my stamp once and then stamping the image repeatedly without re-inking.

Stampin' Up! Catalog Premiere + How to Get Your Catalog

I left my house at 1:00 pm and returned after midnight, but it was worth all the time in the car to attend the Stampin' Up! New Catalog Premiere in Deer Park. The live event took place in California and it was simulcast to theaters across North America! Over 7,000 demonstrators attended the premiere to witness the unveiling of the new catalog and take home their very own copy.

Here's a few photos from the event.
 Check out the cover of the new catalog!! That's all I can show you from the book for now!
I love this new "Watercolor Thank You" stamp! We each got to take home a new stamp set. I forgot to snap a picture, but I'll make a card and share it tomorrow!
 
My friends Kim and Kathryn and I patiently waited for the event to start.
 Home Office staff shared some of their favorite products and showed up inspiring projects. It was the fastest 2-1/2 hours of my life!

This picture is horrible (sorry)! These are the new In Colors! Mossy Meadow, Lost Lagoon, Tangelo Twist, Blackberry Bliss, and Hello Honey. The picture doesn't do them justice. They are rich, beautiful colors!
A sample gift bag using the new Something for Baby stamp set and coordinating framelits!! There are lots of new bundles and coordinating products in the new catalog.
I love watching the training staff. They always have so much fun on stage and their banter is hilarious. Here's a picture after Carrie and Brian had a little race to see who would dis-assemble and re-assemble ink pads faster! Carrie showed up a trick to make it easy. I'll film a video and share soon!
Demonstrators can pre-order the new Blendabilities alcohol based markers starting May 1st. Customers will be able to order them when the new catalog is released on June 2nd.

I know you are going to LOVE the new catalog! So I'm sure your next question is: How can I get a copy of the new catalog?
  • Demonstrators will receive a complimentary catalog in their first order between May 1-18. If you don't order in that time, your copy will be mailed to you on May 19. Demonstrators can view the catalog online starting May 1st.
    • Join now for $99 and pre-order the new Blendabilities markers, In Colors, and other New Catalog products on May 1st! Visit http://juliedavison.stampinup.net/jointhefun to get started. I *think* if you join in May that you can choose pre-order products as part of your Starter Kit!!
  • Customers can get a catalog from their demonstrator during the month of May.
    • If you have ordered $50 or more from me in the past year (since June 1, 2013), I will automatically mail your free catalog to you around May 15.
    • If you are not a current customer of mine and currently do not buy from another demonstrator, you can place a $50 or more order from my Online Store and I will mail you a catalog for free. -OR- You can purchase a catalog for $10, which includes Priority Mail postage. Please email me and I will send you a Paypal invoice for the catalog.
