Why Hello There, New Catalog
Why, hello there! The new catalog went live yesterday and I was among the thousands placing an order. One of the perks of being a demonstrator is the opportunity to pre-order select products a month before a catalog goes live. And I did. But there are so many things I like in the new catalog, I had to order again! Of course, I need new samples for my upcoming Open House, too. Of course.
One of the sets I pre-ordered is called Pieces & Patterns. (You can find it on page 41.) It’s kind of a goofy little set and not the style I normally get. But it caught my eye, and every time I looked through the catalog I had to stop and ponder what I would do with it. Every. Time. So I bought it.
Several of us got together for a swap with our new sets and I made this card.
The camera image in the stamp set and the camera design on the matching Pick a Pattern designer series paper made me think of the faux Polaroid frames that are trendy right now. And the idea of the dinosaur, with his short little arms, taking a selfie made me chuckle. Yes, it doesn’t happen often, but sometimes a card will have a backstory. Is it just me?

Here’s to you
I recently attended an event at the new Crane Brewing Taproom (for those of you in the Raytown MO area). And I recently got the stamp set Mixed Drinks. So I made a card using the beer mug.
One of things I like about this set is that you don’t need to color your drinks. Each glass type has a matching “liquid” image to fit. And its photopolymer, so its really easy to use.
