Hello!

I have to admit that making masculine cards is not my favorite, but since Father's Day is tomorrow, it was time to muster up some masculine creativity.  I decided that the new Best Year bundle that includes the super fun Best Plaid Builder Dies was the perfect one to use.  Plus I added in another new set of dies called World Map.

This sentiment from the Best Year stamp set ties in perfectly with the World Map Dies.

To build the plaid, I used a piece of the World of Good Specialty DSP in the background, then added the thinner piece of plaid cut out of the new Brass Foil Sheets, then a larger plaid piece cut from Cinnamon Cider cardstock, followed by another thinner piece of plaid cut from Misty Moonlight cardstock.  All of the those pieces are layered onto a larger piece of Misty Moonlight and then onto the Cinnamon Cider card base.  All of the plaid pieces are 4 1/4" x 4".  The little gold stars are from the Most Wonderful Time Product Medley that was in last year's Holiday Catalog, but it carried over and is still available for purchase.

It's one of my many favorite times of the year - time for a new Annual Catalog!   And, one of my most popular events is my New Catalog Party & BOGO Sale.  Last Saturday I was thrilled to have people back in my home for this fun event.  (of course we wore masks and practiced social distancing). 

I wanted to share with you the little gift everyone received and the two make & takes (well... they were actually just takes - I made them ahead of time this year to avoid too much contact).

These are the notepads I made for everyone as a little gift.  They showcase all 5 of the new 2020-2022 In Colors and I used the Blossoms in Bloom Bundle.  LOVE it!  The top thinner die is Whisper White cardstock and the thicker die underneath is Vellum cardstock.

This make & take card features the new Celebrate Sunflowers Bundle - another must have!  So so fun to create with.  I also used the In Good Taste DSP.

When I first saw the new catalog, I knew right away that I had to have the Beautiful World bundle!  I love anything with globes.  This was the other make & take from Saturday's party. 

Make sure you take advantage of the host/ordering special in June.  When you spend $250, or collect $250 in orders, you'll get an extra $25 in Stampin' Rewards.  Hooray for extra free stuff!
