As with every new catalog, comes new card packs. There are new Memories & More card packs in 2018-2019 annual catalog. The best part about these new card packs is that they have been redesigned to support card making a little more. Although they are designed for scrapbooking, it’s nice that they coordinate with some of our suites. I do appreciate the Memories & More line because it makes memory keeping so much easier. Since so many people either don’t have time to scrapbook or don’t know how, it’s great to have something that supports scrapbooking and helps guide even the novice scrapbooker.
What Can You Do With Memories & More
These kits are the perfect way to create cards, tags, scrapbooking and anything you can think of using your adhesive. There are envelopes, stickers and a variety of cardstock sizes of paper to all coordinate with our suites. When you add a few of your own embellishments or accents, the possibilities are endless. There are a few different card packs to choose from and each one coordinates with a suite. Each suite has a number of products that also coordinate. All of these products make it so much fun for any level crafter to have fun with. They also make it easy to do projects with children and groups.
Stampin’ Up! put together this new video to give you an idea about what is new with the Memories and More line as well as show us some samples from the card packs. Take a look as Tanner walks us through it:
You don’t have to be a scrapbooker to make use of any of these card packs. Think outside the box. You can check out all the Memories and More products in my store. Use them for scrapbooking, cardmaking, tags, or anything you can think of. If you need any assistance with these products, please don’t hesitate to contact me, I’m happy to help.
The Graceful Glass Suite is just one of the new suites in the 2018-2019 annual catalog. The suite is featured on pages 164 and 165 of the new annual catalog. As with any suite, you have a bunch of products that make up the complete suite. Included is a stamp set, the stained glass framelit dies, the Graceful Glass Designer Vellum which I might add is perfect for coloring with your Stampin’ Blends, However, you can use other coloring options as well. You also get Tinted Faceted Buttons and some black cord.
Graceful Glass: All That’s Included
Below is a video from Stampin’ Up! that puts all the products from this suite in front of you. There are even some card samples and coloring techniques you can use when creating projects with this suite.
I hope you have been inspired and will enjoy this suite as much as I do and I look forward to sharing projects and cards with you created using this suite. The beginning of the Stampin’ Up! year is always an exciting one.
Designs are always fun to check out when the new catalog is released. Do you love new designs? Each year I spend a little time looking through all the new Designer Series Papers. They always coordinate with new colors and stamp sets so beautifully. I have to admit, DSP’s can be addicting. Do you find yourself hoarding Designer Series Paper? I always envision what I can create and then when I get the paper, it’s almost like I don’t want to part with it. Above is just one of the many new Designer Series Papers – Broadway Bound. Which is also the suite that My Paper Pumpkin coordinates with this month.
Beautiful Designs
Some of the papers have such unique designs. I do usually love the florals. Although there are a bunch of beautiful floral designs with Petal Promenade, Tranquil Textures is a very interesting pack. In addition, we have the Graceful Glass pack which is amazing when using the Stampin’ Blends. Let’s not forget the gorgeous designs in Share What You Love. Finally, the Wood Textures can make for some amazing masculine cards and projects. We all know how hard it is sometimes to create a masculine card. You can judge for yourself. Stampin’ Up! has created a video to give you a glimpse at all the new Designer Series Papers in the 2018-2019 annual catalog. You may have to watch it twice to take it all in.
I’m still not sure which is really my favorite because there are so many great new ones. However, I am sure that I will be trying out many of them. Of course, we also have all the cardstock available in all of our core colors. You can also see all the cardstock and papers together in my store and see what works for you.
This monthly Kit will be exciting. There is so much buzz around the June Paper Pumpkin because it coordinates with the Broadway Bound suite in the new 2018-2019 annual catalog. This is a rare month when you will have a little bit on insight as to what Stampin’ Up! has in store for the Paper Pumpkin kit.
This month, Stampin’ Up! has a special theme in store. The Paper Pumpkin for June will coordinate with the Broadway Bound suite from the new 2018-2019 annual catalog. I can’t wait to see it when it’s released.
I love the ease and the flexibility of the project. You don’t always have to create the project that is outlined. You can use the products to make a creation of your own. That’s the beauty of having all the products in one box. It’s truly an experience. If you are not a subscriber, you can sign up on the Paper Pumpkin site here. The monthly kits come straight to your door and have all the supplies in them to create the projects. Here is a little more information about the subscription
There are multiple subscription options. Choose the one that is right for you. Being a subscriber also allows you access to past kits and products and trust me, there have been some amazing kits over the years. I especially look forward to the holiday editions which are coming up real soon.
It’s that time of year again, the New Catalog is here!
The new 2018-2019 Annual Catalog will be live today at 12noon MT, which means at 2:00pm here on the east coast you can start placing your orders. I know you cannot wait to see everything the new catalog has in store. It’s Stampin’ Up!’s 30th anniversary and it shows in all the beautiful new products. One of the most anticipated products is the Stamparatus. If you were not able to get it during the pre-order a few months ago, you can order it now. Here is a brief video from Stampin’ Up! with more information about the Stamparatus:
You Can Now Get the Stamparatus
In addition, I want to share with you a sample card below that was created using the Stamparatus. This great tool is a much needed addition to my craft room, and I’m sure you will think so too. What a pleasant experience to stamp with such precision. As a result, you will be able to take you stamping to the next level. Since you control where you place the stamps, you can also control the pressure used to stamp the image. There is a rubber mat to use with Photopolymer stamps as well.
Notice the greeting in the bottom corner stamped on each side. What I like most of all is the ability to line up all my stamps on the cardstock. Whether it’s inside the card or outside the card, having everything line up gives the card a crisp look. The design of the Stamparatus allows you to use any size cardstock. This makes it possible to use it with scrapbooking as well as card making.
Grab your favorite coffee or tea and sink into your favorite chair while you explore all the wonderful new products. Let me know if I can be of any assistance as you create that wish list.
