Stampin' Up! 2011 Occasions Mini Catalog

Have you seen the new Occasions Mini Catalog yet? Oh my goodness - there is so much in there I don't know where to start!
I love punches, and once again Stampin' Up! has some amazing ones with COORDINATING STAMP SETS!!! There is the Build a Blossom stamp set with the coordinating Blossoms Petals Punch (pg. 12). You can stamp the flower petals and punch them out - no cutting with scissors needed! How cool is that? And that's not the only one. There's the Create a Cupcake stamp set with the Build a Cupcake punch (pg. 22) Both of these punches are so cool when used with the coordinating stamp sets, but you can use them individually too.

Also in this mini is some gorgeous red Glimmer Paper. You can have red glitter on your projects without all of the clean-up! There are also five new Designer Series Paper packages for Valentine's Day, Easter/Spring, masculine, and sewing.

There are some wonderful new accessories - Vintage Flower Adornments, Vanilla Rosettes (made from ribbon), Designer Buttons and Fabric, more colors of the 1/2" Seam Binding Ribbon, and some really cool new things called Trinket Crowns and Trinket Keys. You just have to see these to really appreciate them.

There is a stamp set that I KNEW I had to get the moment I saw it - it's called Eat Chocolate! That had my name all over it!
There is an entire section devoted to the "Oh Sew Suite" collection. It's a retro, whimsical, feminine, bright, fun color palette for little girls to grandmas. Here are just a couple of the items in the collection. The first are the Fabric Designer Brads called Sweet Stitches and the second is the Sweet Stitches Designer Series Paper. There are also some stamp sets in this collection called "Pattern Pieces" and "Button, Button", plus lots more!There are also some wonderful downloads for the My Digital Studio. If you haven't seen this yet, be sure to ask me about it!

If you don't have a copy of the Occasions Mini Catalog yet and you don't have another demonstrator, I'd love to send a copy of this to you. Just contact me and I'll be happy to put one in the mail to you! You can also go to my Stampin' Up! website and view the items in this mini catalog for yourself. Just go to http://www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/jaynestamps/ and click on the button on the right where it says "Shop Now". You can view all of the items in the mini and in the regular catalog there.

I hope to be able to post some ideas using some of these new items soon. I'm still a little hampered by my shoulder problems, but I'll be stamping soon, I know it! Thanks for your understanding and patience!
