An Occasion to Hop
Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals first blog hop of 2014. This month we’re excited to show you the new products available in Stampin’ Up!s 2014 Occasions Catalog as well as preview some of the free products you can earn through Sale-a-bration beginning the end of January. In any case, if you’re like me, you can always find an occasion to hop.
You may just be starting the blog hop or may have come from Maggie Mata at Maggie Made Cards, Stop #23 on the Pals Hop. If you get off track at any time, the full lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all of the amazing creations.
One of my favorite papers is Vellum. Imagine the excitement when I spotted the beautiful Fancy Foil Designer Vellum in the 2014 Occasions Catalog. It’s so light and romantic. Not much is needed to make a sweet card.
Gorgeous Grunge stamped in Encore Metallic Gold gives the vellum a base so it doesn’t blend into the background. Love is from Best of Love a set from the Best of 25 Years series. Metallic gold ink swiped around the edges of the card and envelope make the other gold elements pop. Lastly, Envelope Liner Framelits were used to jazz up the envelope flap.
Give this beautiful specialty paper a try. It’s just what you need for that special card.
The next stop is Lisa Gaines-Davis at Cherry St. Papertreats, #25 on the Pals Blog Hop. Thanks for hopping along with us. Come back next month to see what surprises the Pals have in store.
