We Create Blog Hop--Occasions 2016 Step Up!

Happy New Year!! We've had an amazing Christmas season and are all ready to hit the ground running now that it's January!  Today is the unveiling of the new Occasions and Sale-a-bration catalogs! Aren't you excited?



If you are familiar with Sale-a-bration, you know that there are fantastic new stamp sets and accessories that are only available for a few months and cannot be purchased...they must be earned!  With every $50 in purchases, you get to pick from the great products in the SAB catalog.  If you join Stampin' Up! during SAB you can receive your starter kit for only $99 (reg. $125) plus another $30 in free product!  Even if you have just been thinking about signing up, you should jump in NOW!!!  Finally, if you host a workshop or party during SAB you get $25 more in Stampin' Rewards to spend in the catalog (with a qualifying $250 workshop).  Have I piqued your interest yet? Contact me for more information or if you would like your own copy of the Occasions catalog or the SAB brochure.

My step-up project is done from products from the Occasions catalog.  I love this catalog! It has so many different styles and designs.  There is something for everyone.  A couple of my favorites are the Balloon Celebration stamp set as well as Shine On specialty designer series paper.  The paper is a kraft base with bold, bright designs on one side and silver foil designs on the other!  This is soooo me!  I may have to get another pack...just sayin'.  I loved using the Box Punch Board to make my little box to match my card!

Fun colors with a touch of bling of Bermuda Bay sequins along with the Balloon Bouquet punch, which I adore!  The shine of the foil in the photos is not easily seen, but trust me when I say this DSP is a must have!!  


We have a few people missing from our blog hop this time, but head over to Tanya's and the rest of my friends to find some inspiration.

I pray that you all have a very prosperous and happy new year!
