Current HOSTESS CODE: XDABTPR.
Hi Everyone: Hope you are doing fine. This week’s card is CASEd from page 10 of the Occasions Catalog. See both cards below:
My card uses a white card base with a purple layer. The Designer Series Paper is from the Delightful Daisy pack which will be retiring. I used the Celebrate You thinlets (which will be carrying over to the 2018-19 annual catalog) for the Amazing die cut which is in Calypso Coral. The leaf die cuts are from the Petals and More Thinlets which will also carry over . I did use some vellum die cut leaves from the Wildflower Wishes paper pumpkin (you can always cut your own or leave out). I stamped Amazing on the lower half and added the You tag. Silver metallic thread and pearl and coral embellishments were also used.
Please join us every Tuesday as we case the catalog.
Thank you for joining me on my blog this Tuesday.

There are so many different cards you could make. Just let your imagination take over.
They are very similar. I added real red cardstock and some silver washi tape. On the one on the left, I stamped the lips and wording in real red and staz-on white ink. The stamps come from the new set Sealed With Love from the Occasions catalog just released. The one on the right I also added the real red paper, washi tape and only the small wording, but I also shaded the white heart and lines around with some Craft real red ink and then wiped some off.
Today is the last day of this great sale. There are products on sale for up to 40% off. Also today, there is a 24 hour sale going on for select products. See the list here: 
Let me recap some of the deals I think are great: The Big Shot Magnetic Platform will be 35% off on November 28th for 24 hours. The regular price is $40.00 and on that sale day will be $26.00. That’s a great deal for this must have. The Holly Berry punch, regularly $18.00 will be marked down all week to $10.80. The Stitched with Cheer project kit is also marked down all week from $24.00 to $14.40. This is really a great deal as you can make 18 cards for the holidays. You do need some additional supplies like ink, stamps and adhesive, but if you are local, I can provide them if we can get together to assemble the kit together. Stampin’ Up’s holiday card kits have been awesome in the past and this one is no exception. If you have ever wanted to try Paper Pumpkin, now is the time as there are a couple of kits (and some refills) being offered at 30% off. If you become a paper pumpkin subscriber I also provide additional materials to make some extra goodies with the kits. The Heart confetti border punch is also available all week for 30% off which is a must for Valentines’ projects.
In honor of world card making day Oct. 1st I will be hosting an open house card buffet. These are some of the cards you can make. There are 12 in all and you can choose to make one or all of them. Cost is $2.00 each, or all 12 for $20.00. With a $50 order you get 4 free. If you live in the Orange County, CA area please leave a comment if you wish to attend and I will let you know the address.
For the month of October, Stampin Up has another special. Buy 3 DSP’s and get one free. This is a great deal especially if you are making quite a few of the same card to send out to your friends and family. Here’s a list of the paper included
Wow, there is so much going on at Stampin Up that it’s hard to keep track of. Here’s the scoop. The new holiday catalog from Stampin Up is live today. Boy, is it great. Here are some cards I made with some of the new stamps, dies, paper and accessories. Don’t miss out, it’s never to early to start Christmas Cards. The catalog also has Halloween, fall/Thanksgiving and some sets you can use all year long. If you don’t have a copy, please contact me and I will send one out to you (that is if you don’t currently have a demonstrator)
Here are five of the seven cards I made with supplies from the August Paper Pumpkin 2016 kit. While the intended cards are great, I want to offer you some alternatives. The stamp set that comes with the kit are just awesome this month. Great flower back ground stamps and greetings. I used the colors that the kit was made up of and added some additional paper such as the rust color, orange and light blue. I also added some copper thread on the third card and mint macaroon and cajun craze ink on some since these colors were in the kit. That’s it for the additional products. If your a paper pumpkin subscriber from me, I will send you a picture of selective alternatives and supplies to make the additional cards. Now is a great time for subscriber to join. Buy the September kit by September 10th and receive the next month FREE. That’s $40 worth of products for only $20. The kits include everything you need to make the projects except scissors. That includes a stamp set, ink, adhesives, paper and embellishments. It’s a great little treat to receive each month or give it as a gift for someone. See the next blog for more on this deal. Just contact me either through a comment or by email darstz@hotmail.com, to sign up.
